About this study
Official title: A Phase III Multicenter Study of Valganciclovir for the Prevention of Late Cytomegalovirus Infection After Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
This study is being done in stem cell transplant recipients to see if taking the drug valganciclovir can prevent or reduce serious cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections that can occur 100 days or later after transplant.
Read the detailed description
This study is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, palacebo-controlled, multicenter study of the drug valganciclovir. This study is to see if taking prophylactic doses of valganciclovir starting 100 days after stem cell transplantation can prevent late CMV from occurring.
Participants will be randomized (like a flip of a coin) into one of two groups. Neither the participant nor the doctor will know which group the participant is in. One group will receive the drug valganciclovir. The other group will receive a pill that looks like valganciclovir, but does not contain any active medicine (a placebo).
Participants enrolled in the study will take the drug by mouth daily starting at day 100 post stem cell transplant. Participants will also have blood samples taken along with their routine blood weekly, until day 270. Participants will also be required to return to their routine clinic visits.
Participants' acquiring an active CMV bloodstream infection at the time of the study will receive ganciclovir by the vein twice a day or a high dose of valganciclovir. Participants will be instructed to stop taking the study drug during the treatment time. After active CMV infection can no longer be detected, the treatment will be stopped. Patients will start taking the study drug and will be monitored for a CMV bloodstream infection until 270 days after transplant. Participants developing symptoms that look like CMV disease (pneumonia, infection of the intestines, eye infection) while on the study drug, will have an examination and lab tests to diagnose the organism. Participants that are hospitalized for CMV disease or for any other reason are asked to notify study personnel.
Participants will need to record study medicine taken in a daily study drug diary. Questionnaires will be filled out by the participant throughout the study, they will also be called monthly to see how they are doing and feeling overall.
After 270 days, participants will complete the study drug phrase. They will receive follow up phone calls on days 400, 520, and 640 days after transplant to see how they are doing.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Valganciclovir in people with Bone Marrow Stem Cell Transplant, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
CMV disease. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Dec 2011.
