Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the safety, tolerance, and potential efficacy of 3 doses of human anti-cytomegalovirus (CMV) monoclonal antibody SDZ MSL-109 (MOAB MSL-109) in the treatment of newborns with congenital CMV infection and no central nervous system disease.

II. Determine the relationship between plasma concentrations of MOAB MSL-109 and therapeutic outcome.

III. Determine whether MOAB MSL-109 influences the antibody response and clearance of virus from the urine.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: Patients are treated with human anti-cytomegalovirus monoclonal antibody MSL-109, administered intravenously every other week for a total of 3 doses.

Groups of 6 patients are treated at each of 3 MSL-109 doses; there is no intrapatient escalation.

No concurrent therapy with antibiotics for systemic infection, parenteral antifungal agents, biological response modifiers, or other antiviral agents is allowed.

Patients are followed every 2 weeks for 6 weeks, every 4 weeks for 12 weeks, then annually for 5 years.
