Characteristics of ganciclovir-resistant cytomegalovirus and treatment.
| Patient number | Time from 1st PCR to GCV-R diagnosis (days) | UL97 mutation site | PCR at time of GCV-R diagnosis (copies) | SCr/GFR/CrCl at time of GCV-R diagnosis | Total VGC exposure prior to GCV-R diagnosis (days) | CMV disease category | Total number of cidofovir infusions | GFR at end of treatment |
| 1 | 82 | A594V | 1538 | 1.8/54/65 | 260 | Syndrome, suspected GI invasion | 7 | 45 | 2 | 162 | A594V | 2257 | 1.9/39/66 | 252 | Syndrome | 2 | 45 | 3 | 101 | L595W | 2777 | 1.6/61/73 | 186 | Syndrome | 5 | 61 | 4 | 65 | L595S | 1818 | 1.6/61/69 | 169 | Syndrome | 17 | 60 |

CrCl: creatinine clearance (mL/min); GCV-R: ganciclovir-resistant; GFR: glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.732); GI: gastrointestinal; PCR: polymerase chain reaction; SCr: serum creatinine (mg/dL); VGC: valganciclovir.
