Study design details

Study design

This is an observational, multi country, retrospective, post-authorization safety study (PASS)
based on the review of secondary data collected from medical records of transplant recipients.

Main study objective

To characterize the safety of maribavir as prescribed in routine clinical practice in terms of occurrence of adverse events (AE) in patients with post-transplant refractory CMV infection and comorbid severe CKD or comorbid ESRD, including participants on peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis.

Setting

This proposed retrospective study will be conducted among eligible patients aged 18 years or older on maribavir treatment with comorbid severe CKD or ESRD within routine clinical practice settings. The source population will comprise of eligible patients across nine European nations. Included patients will contribute data from the start of eligible maribavir treatment to completion, discontinuation, end of study or death, whichever comes first. Data accrual will vary between countries, depending on their respective launch dates for maribavir.

Comparators

None

Outcomes

The primary outcome is to assess the number of participants with adverse events (AEs). The secondary outcomes will assess the number of participants with adverse events of special interest (AESIs).

Data analysis plan

The statistical analysis of the data will be primarily descriptive. Continuous variables will be described by the number of eligible participants, mean, standard deviation or standard error, median, first quartile, third quartile, and minimum and maximum values. Categorical variables will be described by the total number of participants and relative proportion per category.
