Viral load and ganciclovir (GCV) concentration in cerebrospinal fluid of patients successfully treated with GCV or valGCV for human herpesvirus 6 encephalitis/myelitis following umbilical cord blood transplantation.
We describe successful treatment of 3 cases of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) encephalitis/myelitis following cord blood transplantation (CBT). Ganciclovir (GCV) (10 mg/kg/day) reduced HHV-6 load to undetectable levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Early dose reduction in the presence of HHV-6 detectable in CSF resulted in an increased HHV-6 load. GCV was capably shifted to valganciclovir (VGCV) with an almost equivalent concentration. GCV/VGCV may be effective for HHV-6 encephalitis/myelitis after CBT, although HHV-6 load in CSF should be monitored.
