Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of maribavir to investigator-assigned anti-Cytomegalovirus (CMV) therapy in CMV viremia clearance in transplant recipients who are refractory or resistant to prior anti-CMV treatment.

Primary Outcome

Confirmed CMV viremia clearance was defined as plasma CMV DNA concentration less than (\<) lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) that is, \<137 International Units per milliliter (IU/mL) when assessed by COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TaqMan® CMV Test in 2 consecutive postbaseline samples, separated by at least 5 days. Percentage of participants with confirmed CMV viremia clearance at end of study Week 8 regardless of whether either study-assigned treatment was discontinued before the end of the stipula
