Safety and Efficacy Study of a New Antiviral Drug to Prevent Cytomegalovirus Reactivation in Bone Marrow Transplanted Patients

January 15, 2018 updated by: AiCuris Anti-infective Cures AG

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Antiviral Activity of 12 Weeks' Treatment With a New Antiviral HCMV Drug

The aim of the study is to find out whether AIC246 is safe and efficacious in lowering the chances of the cytomegalovirus becoming active again and causing illness after an HBPC transplant (allogeneic stem cell transplant).
