Article Synopsis
  • Letermovir (LTV) prophylaxis significantly reduces the incidence of clinically significant cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
  • A study of 230 patients показал that those receiving LTV experienced a higher rate of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation (27%) compared to those who did not receive LTV (13%).
  • Despite the increased EBV reactivation, there were no major differences in recovery metrics, overall survival, or other complications between the LTV and control groups, suggesting a possible link between LTV use and increased EBV reactivation post-transplant.
