Brief Summary: This study is designed to assess how effective letermovir is in preventing recurrence of cytomegalovirus CMV infection in adult kidney or kidneypancreas transplant recipients who are UW Health patients Participants will be in the study for about 6 months
Detailed Description: Study Population Patients over 18 years of age who have undergone kidney or simultaneous kidneypancreas transplant and are high-risk CMV serostatus DR- at time of transplant who develop CMV viremia that necessitates treatment per our institutional protocol enrolled in our CMV stewardship monitoring initiative and demonstrate proven or presumptive lack of cell-mediated immunity either by CMI testing or risk factor screening

Patients will be converted from treatment with ganciclovir derivatives to letermovir 480 mg tablet taken orally once daily when the viral load via SOC weekly monitoring is 500 IUmL This differs from SOC which only allows conversion to secondary prophylactic treatment after CMV is no longer detected on PCR for 2 consecutive weeks Thus liberalization of conversion threshold will allow for reduced exposure to valganciclovir via reduced duration of therapy allowing relief of the myelosuppressive toxicity and creates an environment conducive to CMI

The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of letermovir as secondary prophylaxis after treatment of CMV infection

Primary hypothesis letermovir will be associated with reduced duration of valganciclovir treatment and reduced incidence of recurrent viremia
Primary endpoint valganciclovir treatment time will be measured recurrence will be quantified as number of distinct episodes of any cytomegalovirus replication 1000 IUmL after withdrawal of secondary prophylaxis per previous literature

The secondary objective is to detect the development of cytomegalovirus-specific cell-mediated immunity as determined by a positive result using the Eurofins-Viracor CMV inSIGHTTM T Cell Immunity Testing per manufacturer specifications

Secondary hypothesis letermovir will be associated with increased development of cytomegalovirus-specific cell-mediated immunity when compared to a literature-based control
Secondary endpoint development of cytomegalovirus-specific cell-mediated immunity as determined by a positive result using the Eurofins-Viracor CMV inSIGHTTM T Cell Immunity Testing per manufacturer specifications at the following timepoints letermovir initiation Day 0 and monthly through completion of secondary prophylaxis with a minimum requirement of TCIP at secondary prophylaxis completion
