Study Summary

This was an open-label, controlled study, conducted at US sites to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of the study drug letermovir in adults with HIV and asymptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) who were on antiretroviral therapy (ART)-mediated suppression. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either letermovir once daily or no anti-CMV treatment, for 48 weeks. The primary hypothesis of this study was that letermovir would cause a greater reduction in plasma soluble receptor for tumor necrosis factor type II (sTNFRII) levels than no anti-CMV treatment at weeks 46/48.

Primary Outcome

The absolute change in sTNFRII from Baseline (average of study entry and treatment initiation visits) to Week 46/48 (average of Week 46 and Week 48), or the latest result in the treatment phase. Linear regression was used to estimate the mean change. The covariates were study arm and the gender and CD4 stratification factors.
