Abstract excerpt
Blood culture isolates from patients receiving first- (peripheral retinitis) or second-line (relapsing retinitis) therapy with intravenous cidofovir were obtained from three clinical trials for in vitro antiviral susceptibility analyses. Isolates from 6 patients obtained after 14.3 weeks (mean) o...
