Abstract

In this single-center study of 61 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients receiving letermovir primary cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis for the first 100 days, we report 23% incidence of clinically significant CMV infection during the first 100 days after letermovir discontinuation, predominately in haploidentical HCT recipients, without any associations with CMV-DNAemia under letermovir.
