Optimizing CMV Outcomes
Viracor can make it easier for healthcare providers to manage CMV patients with testing options spanning the continuum of care.
Baseline & Monitor Viral Load
Quantitative CMV PCR can be used for early detection of reactivation, primary infection and monitoring response to treatment.
Dual gene targets and multiple probes increases the assay’s ability to pick up polymorphisms, therefore reducing the chance for false negatives and detecting other strains that could otherwise be missed.
Confirm Antiviral Resistance
Patient outcomes depend on effective prophylaxis and treatment with antiviral therapies, including ganciclovir, valganciclovir, foscarnet, cidofovir and letermovir.
Laboratory testing should be used to confirm drug resistance, as treatment modification based solely on clinical suspicion may result in added toxicity and increased complexity in patient management.
Establish Immunity
The CMV T Cell Immunity Panel measures the strength of T cell responses to CMV-specific antigens and reports the activity of CD4 and CD8 T cell responses independently.
Evaluating immunocompromised patients’ CMV-specific T cell response will help healthcare providers decide when to take patients off of antiviral medication during critical stages in treatment.
