Recommendations from the 10th ECIL for the management of CMV

“The 10th ECIL (European Conference on Infections in Leukaemia) meeting in 2024 addressed new developments in CMV management after allogeneic HCT, and recommendations are presented in this Review. Management recommendations include diagnostics, such as immune monitoring, antiviral prophylaxis with letermovir, management of resistant and refractory CMV infections, and paediatric aspects of CMV management. Furthermore, the 10th ECIL introduced recommendations for two new categories: patients treated with chimeric antigen receptor T cells or treated with bispecific T-cell-engaging antibodies”.
