Early Initiation of Letermovir Prophylaxis Prevents Cytomegalovirus Infection After Liver Transplantation: A Prospective Single-Center Study (TTS 2026) - Sep 17, 2026 - Pres time: Sep 22, 2026; 08:45 AM - 08:50 AM; Location: Room C4.8; 312; "Treatment was discontinued in cases of adverse events, CMV antigenemia, or CMV disease, with conversion to ganciclovir or valganciclovir as appropriate. Early initiation of letermovir prophylaxis within 2 weeks after liver transplantation effectively prevents CMV infection and is a safe strategy. These findings highlight the critical importance of early prophylactic intervention in optimizing CMV prevention."
