A Phase 3 Study of Brincidofovir Versus Valganciclovir for the Prevention of Cytomegalovirus Disease

This was a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, multicenter study of the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral BCV versus vGCV for the prevention of CMV disease in high-risk kidney transplant allograft recipients, defined as CMV-seronegative recipients (R-) receiving a CMV-seropositive graft (D+). The study comprised a screening evaluation period (up to 14 days posttransplant), a treatment period (up to 28 weeks posttransplant), and a posttreatment follow-up period (24 weeks, through Week 52 posttransplant).
