Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The identification of CMV antiviral drug resistance (AVDR) is a critical diagnostic test for immunocompromised patients with CMV infection and a failure of virologic response on optimal antiviral treatment. We developed a next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay for CMV AVDR testing and compared the AVDR mutations identified by NGS to Sanger sequencing. METHODS: Retrospective review of CMV AVDR...
