The Value of Pharmacist-Driven Valganciclovir Dosing in Kidney Transplant Recipients in Reducing CMV Infection: A Single Center Experience
*Purpose: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common viral infection after kidney transplant (KT) despite prophylaxis with valganciclovir (VGCV). VGCV is renally dosed and can be a…2020 American Transplant Congress
CMV, EBV and BKV Viremia Rate Varied Depending on the Timing of Conversion to Belatacept (BLT)- from Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI)-Based Immunosuppression and HLA-Sensitization (HS) Status in Kidney Transplant Patients (KTx Pts)
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: Viral infections (VI) represent significant morbidity and mortality factors for KTx Pts. We previously showed more VI in BLT-treated Pts compared with CNI Pts…2020 American Transplant Congress
Reduced Dose Valganciclovir is Effective for CMV Prevention without Excess Breakthrough or Resistance in Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: Reduced dose valganciclovir (VGC) (450 mg daily) may be a useful alternative to full dose VGC for cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis due to drug cost…2020 American Transplant Congress
Efficacy Of CMV Prophylaxis In Liver Transplant Recipients
Intermountain Medical Center, Murray, UT

Conversion to Belatacept (BLT)- from Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI)-Based Immunosuppression During the First Year Post-Transplant (<1yr Tx) Increases Risk for CMV Infection Through Inhibition of Anti-CMV Humoral Immunity
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: We have shown a higer CMV infection rate in kidney Tx patients (KTx Pts) who were converted to BLT 1yr post-Tx. Viral infections are…2020 American Transplant Congress
Use of Letermovir for Cytomegalovirus Management in Thoracic Organ Transplantation
Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC
