Official title
Prospective Evaluation of Efficacy of CMV-specific T Cell Immunity (CMV-TCIP) Directed Letermovir Prophylaxis After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation
Overview
This is a phase 2, prospective cohort clinical trial evaluating the utilization of CMV T Cell Immunity Panel (CMV-TCIP) assay to guide the duration of primary CMV prophylaxis in CMV-seropositive recipients of allogeneic stem cell transplant or recipients receiving a stem cell graft from a CMV serology positive donor.
Interventions
- Drug Letermovir
Subjects will receive 14 weeks of letermovir prophylaxis at standard recommended dose follow by CMV-TCIP-directed extended prophylaxis. - Device CMV T Cell Immunity Panel (CMV-TCIP)
Viracor CMV-TCIP assay to measure how a person's immune system responds to CMV. Viracor CMV-TCIP will be measured monthly, starting at week 14, until positive, then at week 30 and 52. - Diagnostic test CMV DNA PCR
Plasma level of CMV DNA PCR will be measured at enrollment and at least weekly through week 30, then at least every 2 weeks through week 52 of transplant if no GVHD or CMV reactivation.
Primary outcome measures
- Cumulative incidence of clinically significant cytomegalovirus infection (CS-CMVi) at 52 weeks after transplant [Time frame: 1 year after transplant]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Cumulative incidence of CMV disease at 52 weeks after transplant [Time frame: 1 year after transplant]
- Cumulative incidence of CMV related death at 52 weeks [Time frame: 1 year after transplant]
- Overall Survival at 1 year after transplant [Time frame: 1 year after transplant]
- Positive predictive value of CMV-TCIP assay after transplant in predicting CS-CMVi protection [Time frame: 1 year after transplant]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
