Study Details

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a significant opportunistic pathogen and a major cause of morbidity and mortality in solid organ transplant recipients. CytoGam - Cytomegalovirus Immune Globulin Intravenous (CMV-IGIV), is an immunoglobulin G containing a standardized amount of antibody against CMV. CytoGam is obtained from pooled adult human plasma that has been selected for high anti-CMV titers. This study will evaluate if administration of CytoGam to organ transplant recipients with CMV infection, along with standard of care antiviral medication, leads to faster clearance of CMV from the blood, prevents the development of antiviral resistance, and decreases the rate of recurrence of CMV infection.

Arms

  • Experimental: CytoGam for primary CMV infection after lung or liver transplantation or for high viral load
    There are 3 cohorts in this treatment arm: * CMV D+/R- lung transplant recipients who develop any level of CMV DNAemia after discontinuation of valganciclovir prophylaxis and who have not yet received antiviral treatment for greater than 14 days will receive one dose of CytoGam. * CMV D+/R- liver transplant recipients on pre-emptive therapy who develop any level of detectable CMV DNAemia and who have not yet received antiviral treatment for greater than 14 days will receive one dose of CytoGam. * Recipients of any solid organ transplant who have CMV DNAemia ≥ 50,000 IU/ml, with or without CMV disease, and who have not yet received antiviral therapy for greater than 14 days will receive one dose of CytoGam. For all cohorts the choice and duration of antiviral therapy will be at the discretion of the treating physician.

Primary Outcome Measure
