1219. Unfavorable Clinical Outcomes with Polymyxins Compared to Ceftolozane/Tazobactam for the Treatment of Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract Background Patients with carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) have high in-hospital mortality rates. It is unknown if patients with CRPA treated with ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) have improved clinical outcomes compared to those treated with polymyxins. Methods The CDC-funded, Georgia Emerging Infections Program performed active population- and laboratory-based surveillance for CRPA isolated from sterile sites, urine, lower respiratory tract and wounds in metropolitan Atlanta, GA from 8/1/2016–7/31/2018. We reviewed charts of adults without cystic fibrosis who were hospitalized within 1 week of CRPA culture. Using a desirability of outcome ranking (DOOR) analysis which incorporates both benefits and risks into a single outcome, we estimated the probability that a patient treated first with C/T would have a more desirable clinical outcome at 30-days than a patient treated with polymyxins (polymyxin B or colistin). We adjusted for confounding using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) based on culture source and need for dialysis at baseline. A partial credit analysis allowed for variable weighting of DOOR ranks and calculation of differences in mean partial credit scores. Results Among 710 cases from 18 different hospitals, we identified 73 patients treated for CRPA infections with polymyxins (n=31) or C/T (n=42). Most patients were male (64%) and Black (80%), and those receiving polymyxins were more likely to have required dialysis at baseline (35% vs. 14%, p=0.03) (Table 1). At 30 days after culture, 34 (47%) were alive with no adverse events, 21 (29%) were alive with ≥ 1 adverse event, and 18 (25%) had died. Patients first treated with C/T had a lower 30-day mortality rate than those treated with polymyxins (14% vs 39%, p=0.03). Additionally, those receiving C/T had better overall clinical outcomes, with an adjusted DOOR probability of having an improved outcome of 67% (95% CI 53%–80%) compared to those receiving polymyxins (Figure 1). Partial credit analyses indicated consistent results across different patient values of survival with adverse events (Figure 2). Figure 1: Inverse probability of treatment weighting-adjusted desirability of outcome ranking (DOOR) distributions by treatment group, accounting for adverse events and survival status that occurred up to 30 days after CRPA culture. 1. Percentages are adjusted using inverse probability of treatment weighting, controlling for culture source and need for dialysis at baseline 2. Adverse events measured included: acute kidney injury, discharge to higher acuity location than previous residence, or being hospitalized 30 days after culture Figure 2: Inverse probability of treatment weighting-adjusted partial credit analysis. This displays the difference (ceftolozane/tazobactam minus polymyxin) in mean partial credit scores (black line) and associated 95% confidence bands (gray lines) as a function of the partial credit score assigned to an individual having at least one adverse event (range 0 – 100%). A score of 100% is assigned to patients alive with no adverse events and a score of 0% is assigned to patients who die. A difference in mean partial credit scores of approximately zero suggests there was no difference observed between treatment groups. Conclusion These findings support the recent Infectious Diseases Society of America guidance favoring C/T over polymyxins for treatment of CRPA infections.

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) and specifically Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKp) are a global threat. CRE rapidly spreading in a healthcare network may infect a distinct patient cohort or have higher virulence. We determined the impact of cluster assignment of CRKp on transmission dynamics and clinical outcomes. Methods CRACKLE-2 is a multi-site, prospective, observational cohort study of hospitalized patients with a clinical CRE culture from any anatomic site. We analyzed 351 patients enrolled 4/30/2016–8/31/2017 in 42 US hospitals with clonal group 258 CRKp. Static clusters were set as ≤ 21 core single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), identified by Snippy, and sharing a recent common ancestor, using a maximum likelihood phylogeny (RAxML v8.2.4). Dynamic clusters were set as > 80% probability of being within 3 transmissions by the R program transcluster (λ = 4, β = 1.6). Clinical outcome was assessed by desirability of outcome ranking with best outcome as alive without events and worst outcome as death. Events were no clinical response, unsuccessful discharge, and adverse events. We compared patients in and out of clusters. For patients in clusters, we also compared intra- vs inter-hospital clusters. Results In total, there were 49 static (median: 5, IQR: 2, 8) and 45 dynamic clusters (median: 5, IQR: 2, 20). For static clusters, 176 patients (50%) were in clusters with 82 (47%) patients in intra-hospital clusters. A higher proportion of patients in clusters, vs not in clusters, had a CRKp culture > 3 days from admission (P = 0.037). More patients in inter-hospital, vs intra-hospital, clusters had diabetes (P = 0.02). For dynamic clusters, 179 patients (51%) were in clusters with 69 (39%) patients in intra-hospital clusters. A lower proportion of patients in clusters, vs not in clusters, had CRKp isolated from urine (P = 0.04). More patients in inter-hospital, vs intra-hospital, clusters had a CRKp culture 3 days from admission (P = 0.04). Clinical outcomes were the same for patients in clusters vs not in clusters for static and dynamic clusters. Conclusion This analysis shows that clinical outcomes are independent of clustering assignment. Static clustering better represented nosocomial spread, based on a higher proportion of patients in clusters having a later CRKp culture.

Abstract Background The molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella species is not well investigated in Qatar. The objective of this work was to characterize the genetic context of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella isolates recovered from clinical specimens. Methods Klebsiella isolates (n=100) were collected at 7 tertiary hospitals from 2015-2017. Identification and susceptibility testing were performed using MALDI-TOF MS and BD Phoenix system, respectively. Whole Genome Sequencing was performed on the Illumina NextSeq platform. Phylogenomic analysis, screening of resistance and virulence genes, and comparison of genetic environment of carbapenemase were carried out. Results Klebsiella pneumoniae was common (80), followed by K. quasipneumoniae (16), K. aerogenes (3) and K. oxytoca (1). The most prevalent were genes encoding NDM-1 (39), OXA-48 (20), OXA-232 (10) and OXA-181 (12). KPC-2 (3) and KPC-3 (2) were also identified; no carbapenemase-encoding genes could be identified in 15 isolates. Plasmid locations of 24 carbapenemase-encoding genes were determined; blaNDM-1 was localized on IncFII replicon, while blaOXA-181 and blaOXA-232 were commonly associated with ColKP3 plasmids. pOXA-48-like plasmid was detected in 17/20 isolates harboring blaOXA-48. blaKPC-3 was located on a contig with ‘traditional’ Tn4401a mobile genetic element. Sequence types (STs) were diverse and the ‘traditional’ clonal group (CG) 258 was rare. K. pneumoniae ST147 was predominant (13), followed by ST231 (7) and ST11 (5). Nine K. quasipneumoniae isolates belonged to ST196 and were highly clonal. The virulence loci such as yersiniabactin (ybt) and rmpA were not detected within the study’s K. quasipneumoniae isolates. Amongst K. pneumoniae, there were 50 ybt+ isolates; 8 isolates had rmpA, and of these, 3 belonged to ST383. K. pneumoniae serotype K2, the capsular serotype associated with invasive liver abscess syndrome, was detected in 5 isolates. Genetic relationship of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and K. quasipneumoniae isolates in Qatar inferred from core genome SNPs. The tree is overlaid with predicted antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence factors for each isolate. Conclusion The predominant carbapenemases among clinical Klebsiella species isolates in Qatar are NDM and OXA-48 like enzymes, disseminated through various plasmids. The detection of carbapenemase-producing isolate bearing rmpA and serotype K2 reflect the presence of both multidrug resistance and hypervirulence in K. pneumoniae.

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacilli (CRGNB) are increasingly reported around the world as a cause of serious infections. However, the epidemiology and clinical course of patients with CRGNB in Japan is not well understood. Methods We prospectively collected CR cases from 4/2019 to 9/2020 in Multi-Drug Resistant organisms clinical research network (MDRnet) consisting of 5 tertiary care facilities in Japan. We looked for all CRGNB, and all unique patients with CR Enterobacterales, CR nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) and CR Aeromonas sp. isolation were included. Carbapenem resistance was tested by agar dilution method and defined based on the CLSI criteria for each species. Infections were determined by NHSN protocols. Results In total, 156 patients (30 Enterobacterales, 119 NFGNB, 7 Aeromonas spp.) were included (11 Enterobacter spp., 11 Klebsiella spp., 86 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 29 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, 7 Aeromonas spp.). Acinetobacter sp. was not detected. Isolation sites were sputum (n = 12) and urine (n = 7) in Enterobacterales, sputum (n = 62) and blood (n = 18) in NFGNB, and blood (n = 6) in Aeromonas spp. The median age and male ratio of the patients were 68 years [IQR: 53-74] and 19 (63.3%) in Enterobacterales, 72 years [IQR: 60-79] and 70 (58.8%) in NFGNB and 78 years [IQR: 54-83] and 2 (28.6%) in Aeromonas spp. Ten (33.3%) patients with Enterobacterales, 55 (46.2%) patients with NFGNB, and 6 (85.7%) patients with Aeromonas spp. were infected cases. The others were considered as colonized. There were no patients with ICU stay or intubation in Enterobacterales, while 5 (4.2%) and 4 (3.4%) patients were in ICU and intubated in NFGNB, and 2 patients were in ICU and intubated in Aeromonas spp., respectively. All-cause 30-day mortality rates were 10% in Enterobacterales, 16.8 % in NFGNB and 28.6% in Aeromonas spp. In the infected patients, 3 patients (30%) with Enterobacterales, 12 patients (21.8%) with NFGNB and 1 patient (16.7%) with Aeromonas spp. died within 30 days after isolation. Flow diagram outlining the characteristics of the patients and species in this study. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of patients with carbapenem resistant Enterobacterales Kaplan-Meier survival curves of patients with carbapenem resistant nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli Conclusion Mortality rates were high in infected cases of CR Enterobacterales, CR NFGNB and CR Aeromonas spp. Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. was not detected, which differed from the CR epidemiology in Europe, the United States, and other Asian countries.

Abstract Background An estimated 30% of antibiotic prescriptions in outpatient settings may be inappropriate. Antibiotic exposure increases an individual’s risk of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) and acquiring drug-resistant pathogens. To quantify the increased risk of CDI and drug-resistant pathogens posed by antibiotics prescribed in outpatient visits, we examined a two-year cohort of patients seen in primary care clinics at VA Community-Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOC) associated with a large VA Medical Center. Methods Among patients with an in-person visit at 13 CBOCs in 2018–2019, we examined rates of antibiotic-associated adverse events (AEs), defined as community-onset CDI or acquisition of resistant Gram-negative bacteria (R-GNB), in the 90 days following those visits. For each visit, we used administrative databases to determine if systemic antibiotics were prescribed, if there was an associated infectious diagnosis, and the subsequent occurrence of AEs. We summarized quarterly rates of prescribed antibiotics and AEs, characterized patients with and without AEs, and estimated the risk ratio of AE for an antibiotic prescription. Results Following 236,665 primary care visits, we observed 62 and 225 AEs due to CDI and R-GNB, respectively (0.12% combined rate) among 278 patients (5 with both). Patients who developed CDI or R-GNB had a higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (3.6 ± SD 3.0 and 2.68 ± SD 2.7, respectively) compared to those without AEs (0.72 ± SD 1.3; Table). The rate of new antibiotic prescriptions was 4% in visits without and 10% in visits with a subsequent AE, yielding a risk ratio of 2.5 (95% CI: 1.7–3.7). The rates of both antibiotic prescribing and AE were steady over the examined two-year period (Figure). Table Figure Conclusion Among all patients with a CBOC visit between 2018–2019, an AE, defined as CDI or R-GNB acquisition, was observed following only 0.1% of primary care visits. Among patients who experienced an AE, only 10% of primary care visits preceding those events included a new antibiotic prescription. While this analysis does not address antibiotics during inpatient stays or prescribed by specialty clinics, these findings suggest that among Veterans, outpatient antibiotic exposure may have only a modest contribution to the risk of AE.

Abstract Background The 2017 IDSA CDI guideline update phased out metronidazole (MTZ) and recommended vancomycin (VAN) or fidaxomicin (FDX) for first-line use. This study examined changes in CDI antibiotic use and clinical outcomes among Medicare beneficiaries with CDI pre- vs. post- the guideline update. Methods This retrospective claims analysis used 2016-2018 national Medicare claims data. The two study samples included continuously eligible fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries aged ≥66 years with a new CDI diagnosis followed by an antibiotic fill in the pre-period (04/01/2017-09/30/2017) and post-period (04/01/2018-09/30/2018), respectively. Outcomes included type of CDI antibiotic received; sustained response and CDI recurrence. Multivariable regressions compared pre- vs. post-period outcomes while controlling for sociodemographic and clinical factors. Results The pre-period (N=7,389) and post-period (N=7,746) samples had similar characteristics (59% > 75 years, 32% male). Post-guideline update, absolute rates of MTZ use declined 27.7% (relative change [RC] -34.1%, p< 0.001) and VAN use increased 26.9% (RC +150.2%, p< 0.001) (Figure 1). While FDX use increased 0.8% (RC +87.8%, p< 0.001), overall use remained low (1.63%). Surprisingly, clinical outcomes did not improve between the pre- and post-period (Table 1). Even after adjustment, overall sustained response rates decreased (Odds Ratio [OR]: 0.93, p=0.0197) and overall CDI recurrence rates increased (OR: 1.13, p=0.0018) slightly in the post- vs. pre-period. Additional analyses by type of antibiotic showed that VAN (55.0% and 35.1%) was similar in outcomes to MTZ (54.2% and 33.0%), whereas FDX (71.4% and 20.9%) had higher sustained response and lower CDI recurrence rates, respectively (Figure 2). Figure 1. First-line use of CDI treatments, pre- vs. post- the guideline update, among Medicare beneficiaries with CDI Table 1. Clinical outcomes, pre- vs. post- the guideline update, among Medicare beneficiaries with CDI Figure 2. Clinical outcomes* by type of index CDI treatment among Medicare beneficiaries with CDI Note Pooled rates among patients on each index CDI treatment across the pre- and post-index periods. Conclusion The 2017 IDSA guideline update was associated with a substantial increase in VAN use and decrease in MTZ use. FDX use rates remained low (< 2%). Overall CDI outcomes did not improve post guideline update despite the shift to guideline-indicated VAN. This may be because VAN was not associated with meaningfully improved outcomes relative to MTZ. However, improved outcomes seen with FDX relative to VAN and MTZ suggest potential benefits from its greater use in Medicare patients. Disclosures Erik R.

Abstract Background Daptomycin (DAP) has become an appealing treatment option for gram-positive infections, which are common in patients receiving hemodialysis (HD), due to frequent access and manipulation. The approved DAP dosing of 4 to 6 mg/kg every 48 hours (q48h) quickly becomes desynchronized from the patient’s HD schedule and requires the burden of additional IV access. Previous pharmacokinetic studies have suggested that DAP can be dosed three-times weekly following HD, but no studies have evaluated clinical outcomes of this regimen. Methods This was a multi-center, retrospective cohort study across 6 hospitals in the United States. Adult, nonpregnant patients who received HD and DAP between 2015 and 2020 were screened for inclusion. Electronic medical records were reviewed for relevant study data. The primary outcome was clinical and microbiological outcomes among patients who received DAP thrice weekly versus q48h dosing. Microbiological Failure was defined as positive cultures after 7 days and further study definitions are included under Table 3. Results Baseline characteristics are summarized in Table 1. Length of stay was similar between both groups at a median of 25 days and patients had a median QPitt score of 0 on admission. The average DAP dose used was 7 mg/kg and 7mg-7mg-9mg on HD days in the q48h dosing and thrice weekly dosing regimens, respectively. The majority of patients had bacteremia and the most commonly isolated bacteria was methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. No differences in clinical outcomes were observed (p=0.87). Microbiological failure was higher among patients who received DAP thrice weekly compared to q48h dosing (69.2% vs 34.8%, p=0.047). Conclusion DAP dosed thrice weekly on HD days offers similar clinical resolution compared to q48h dosing. While the thrice weekly dosing regimen did have a significantly higher rate of microbiological failure, the analysis was limited by a small sample size. As this is a retrospective analysis not accounting for confounding variables, additional prospective studies are warranted to confirm these findings. Disclosures Wesley D.

Treatment Naïve

Abstract Background Cohort studies suggest higher rates of discontinuations (DCs) and adverse events (AEs) with integrase inhibitors (INSTIs) than is reported in clinical trials. Here, we assess DC of different INSTIs in combination with one of two tenofovir prodrugs in the first year following initiation defined as “early DC” in a real-world cohort of treatment-naïve patients. Methods This analysis evaluated treatment-naïve patients at a single center initiating raltegravir (RAL), elvitegravir/cobicistat (EVG/c), dolutegravir (DTG) or bictegravir (BIC) in combination with emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) or emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) between 10/2007-1/2020. Eligible patients had a minimum follow-up of 1 year. The primary endpoint was incidence of early INSTI DC. Secondary endpoints included AEs and risk factors for early INSTI DC and treatment-related AEs. Results 331 patients were included. Median age was 32 years, 89% were male, 43% were non-White, 8% started RAL-based therapy, 46% started EVG/c-based therapy, 22% started DTG-based therapy and 24% started BIC/F/TAF. 36 discontinued INSTI-based therapy early yielding an incidence rate of 0.17 DCs per person-years (PPY) among RAL patients, 0.14 DCs PPY among EVG/c patients, 0.22 DCs PPY among DTG patients, and 0 DCs PPY among BIC patients, p=0.006. Treatment-related AEs occurred in 27% of RAL patients, 42% of EVG/c patients, 50% of DTG patients, and 43% of BIC patients p=0.607; and were responsible for early DC rates of 0.022 in 3 EVG/c patients and 0.075 in 5 DTG patients. No treatment-related early DCs occurred among RAL or BIC patients. No evaluated factor was significantly associated with early INSTI DC, however DTG use was significantly associated with treatment-related AEs (aOR 3.46, 95% confidence interval: [1.20; 10.82]). Table 1. Risk factors for early integrase inhibitor discontinuation and treatment-related adverse events Conclusion In this cohort, early DCs occurred in 11% initiating INSTI-based therapy, however of these only 2% were treatment-related. These data support use of INSTI-based regimens as preferred options for treatment-naïve patients living with HIV due to their favorable safety and tolerability profiles.

Abstract Background Herpes zoster can negatively impact older adults’ health and quality of life. An adjuvanted recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) has excellent vaccine efficacy (VE), including in older adults. Given that frailty is strongly associated with vulnerability to illness and adverse health outcomes, we studied how frailty impacts RZV VE, immunogenicity, reactogenicity, and safety. Methods In the ZOE-50 and ZOE-70 pivotal Phase 3 efficacy studies of RZV, 29,305 participants aged 50–96 received 2 doses of RZV vs. placebo in 1:1 randomization. In this secondary analysis (NCT03563183), a baseline frailty index (FI) was created retrospectively following previously validated methods using pre-existing comorbidities and patient reported outcomes. Participants were categorized as non-frail (FI≤ 0.08), pre-frail (FI=0.08–0.25) or frail (FI≥ 0.25) for stratified analyses. Results FI was calculated for 99.8% of participants included in this secondary analysis (n=26,976), and was balanced between RZV and placebo groups. 45.6% were pre-frail and 11.3% were frail. Mean age was 68.8 years; 58.1% were women. RZV VE against HZ was consistently above 90% for all frailty categories [non-frail: 95.8% (95%CI: 91.6–98.2), pre-frail: 90.4% (84.4–94.4), frail: 90.2% (75.4–97.0)]. The RZV group demonstrated robust antibody responses post-dose 2 across frailty categories. In the RZV group, the percentage of participants reporting solicited adverse events decreased with increasing frailty. Unsolicited medically attended visits and serious adverse events increased with frailty and were balanced between placebo and RZV groups. Conclusion The ZOE studies included older adults who were frail and pre-frail, and VE was high across frailty categories. Reactogenicity decreased with increasing frailty, and no safety concerns were identified in any frailty group. Disclosures Melissa K.

Abstract Background Approximately 50% of people living with HIV (PLWH) in the United States are ≥50 years old. Efforts are ongoing to identify antiretrovirals associated with fewer drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and long-term side effects in this group. Clinical trials of B/F/TAF demonstrated favorable efficacy and safety in older adults, however, data from real-word settings are needed to validate these results. Methods This retrospective analysis evaluated records from PLWH aged ≥ 50 years at the Orlando Immunology Center who were switched to B/F/TAF between 2/7/2018 and 5/31/2019. Eligible patients had baseline HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/mL and were followed for 48 weeks post-switch. The primary endpoint was maintenance of HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/mL at week 48. The impact of switching to B/F/TAF on DDIs, adverse events (AEs) and safety parameters were analyzed throughout the study. Results 306 patients met inclusion criteria. 62 (20%) were female, 126 (41%) were non-white, median age was 58 years (range [r] 50-81), median duration of HIV infection was 19.5 years (r 2-40), median number of chronic co-morbid conditions was 5 (r 0-20), and median number of baseline concomitant medications was 4 (r 0-23). 159 (52%) patients were switched from regimens containing ritonavir or cobicistat. The most commonly documented reason for switch was simplification (Table 1). At Week 48, 287 (94%) patients maintained an HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/ml and 19 (6%) had an HIV-1 RNA between 50-200 copies/mL (Figure 1). 1 patient discontinued due to lack of efficacy. A total of 123 potential DDIs were identified in 104 (34%) patients taking a boosting agent or rilpivirine at baseline (Table 2). At Week 48, there was a significant median decline in total cholesterol (15.5 mg/dL, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 9.5; 21.5), LDL cholesterol (9.5 mg/dL, 95% CI: 4; 15.5) and triglycerides (20 mg/dL, 95% CI: 9.5; 32.5), and median weight increased by 2.5 pounds (95% CI: 1.5; 3.5). Treatment-related AEs occurred in 33 (11%) patients (all Grade 1-2) and led to 7 (2%) discontinuations. Table 1-Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics Table 2-Avoidance of Drug-Drug Interactions (DDIs) following switch to B/F/TAF Figure 1-Subgroup analysis of virologic outcomes at Week 48 Conclusion In this real-world cohort, switching to B/F/TAF was associated with maintenance of virologic control, improvement in lipid parameters, and avoidance of DDIs in a large proportion of patients. These data support use of B/F/TAF as a treatment option in older PLWH. Disclosures Charlotte-Paige M.

Abstract Background The epidemiology of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) after Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT) in the era of preemptive therapy (PET) is defined. In contrast, less data exists on refractory and/or resistant (R/R) CMV. We report on 1) the incidence; 2) risk factors and outcomes of R/R CMV by 1-year post HCT. Methods Retrospective review of 167 CMV seropositive (R+) recipients of first marrow or peripheral blood HCT from 1/2014 - 12/2017 managed by PET. Refractory CMV was defined as failure to achieve >1 log10 decrease in CMV viral load (VL) and having VL >1,000 IU/mL after ≥14 day of PET. Resistant CMV required genotypic confirmation of resistance mutation(s) in UL54 and/or UL97 genes. End organ disease (EOD) was defined by standard criteria. Patients (pts) were followed through 1-year post HCT and were categorized in two mutually exclusive groups as R/R and no R/R. Demographics, clinical characteristics and outcomes were extracted from medical records and hospital databases. Univariable and multivariable logistic models were used to identify risk factors for R/R CMV. Results Of 167 PET recipients, 91 (54.5%) received ex vivo T cell depleted (TCD) HCT; 40 (24.0%) had mismatched donor; and 26 (15.6%) had multiple myeloma. 66/167 (39.5%) pts developed refractory CMV (6 pts also had resistant CMV). Time from HCT to CMV viremia was shorter in R/R group: median (IQR) 21.5 (17.2-27.8) days compared to no R/R group: 26 (19-32) days (p=0.031). Maximum VL was higher for R/R compared to no R/R: median (IQR) 9,118 (2,849-18,456) and 868 (474-1,908), respectively (p< 0.001). In multivariable model, risk factors for R/R included TCD HCT (p< 0.0001) and higher VL at PET initiation (p=0.0002). In contrast, CMV seropositive donor (p=0.035) was protective (Figure 1). CMV EOD developed in 28.2% of R/R and 16.2% of no R/R groups (p=0.085) (Figure 2). Overall survival at 1 year was 59.1% for R/R compared to 83.1% for no R/R group (p=0.00027) (Figure 3). Figure 1. Adjusted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) from multivariable model evaluating risk factors of refractory/resistant (R/R) CMV. Figure 2. Cumulative incidence curves of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) at 1-year post HCT Figure 3. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of overall survival (OS) at 1-year post HCT Conclusion 1) Refractory and/or resistant CMV occurred in 39,5% of PET recipients. 2) T-cell depletion and higher CMV VL at PET initiation were risk factors for R/R CMV in multivariable models. 3) R/R CMV was associated with more EOD and worse overall survival.
