• Pentamidine 300mg inhaled every 30 days
– Children < 4 yoa: 150mg inhaled every 30 days
• Dapsone 2mg/kg once daily (max. 100mg) or
4mg/kg weekly (max 200mg)
– Hemolytic anemia (G6PD def.), aplastic anemia,
nephrotic syndrome, albuminuria, cholestatic jaundice
syndrome, elevated liver transaminases, toxic hepatitis
• Atovaquone 30mg/kg once daily (max. 1500mg)
Pneumocystis prophylaxis cont.
• Duration varies greatly by organ transplanted
and transplant center
– None-lifetime
• Lung and Small-Bowel
– Lifetime
• Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin
– Heart – 6 months
– Kidney – lifetime
– Liver – 12 months
Pneumocystis prophylaxis cont.
• Kidney – recent data points that lifelong
prophylaxis not necessary
– Anand et al. – 4/1352 (0.3%) PCP infections over 7
years
• 2 patients < 12 months post-kidney transplant
– Both had CMV infection 2 & 4 months prior to PCP
• 3 patients received 1 month of PCP prophylaxis
– Inhaled pentamidine

Liver 7-42%
Heart 5-21%
Lung 15-35%
Pancreas 18-38%
• Candida and Aspergillus spp. are most common
– Blastomycosis, Histoplasmosis, Coccidiodomycosis less
common

– Candida spp. 70%
– Aspergillus spp. 100%

Anti-fungal prophylaxis
• Always watch for Drug-Drug Interactions!
– Fluconazole 6mg/kg once daily (max. 400mg)
– Nystatin 1-5mL swish & swallow TID-QID
• Stendahl et al. – 94% of pediatric heart centers surveyed
• Select Populations
– Voriconazole 6-8mg/kg IV/PO Q12h (max. 400mg)
• Follow Kinetics – some need Q8h dosing
– Amphotericin B lipid formulations 1-5mg/kg IV Q24h
• Amphotericin B aerosolized – limited data in lung transplant
– Micafungin 4-12mg/kg IV q24h
– Caspofungin 70mg/m² x 1, then 50mg/m² IV Q24h

CMV Disease Risk Factors
• Donor CMV-seropositivity and recipient CMVseronegativity (D+/R-)
• Certain types of organ transplants
– Liver
– Lung
– Pancreas
• Use of highly immunosuppressive drug therapies
• High degree of HLA mismatch
• Young patient age
CMV Prevention
• Prophylaxis
– All patients or at-risk patients receive medication
– Stendahl et al. – 91% of pediatric heart centers
surveyed use routine prophylaxis
• Preemptive therapy
– Regular, frequent CMV monitoring
– Initiate treatment therapy at certain viral replication
threshold
– Little evidence in some populations
• Combination of both
CMV Prophylaxis
• Valganciclovir – 15-18mg/kg orally daily (max.
900mg)
– Adverse effects: anemia, neutropenia, GI effects
– Manufacturer’s dosing (mg) = 7 x body surface area x
creatinine clearance (CrCl Schwartz)
• 25kg, 128cm, CrCl 120ml/min: Dose = 800mg/day
– Some evidence of 450mg orally daily
• Lower drug cost, less neutropenia
• Not recommended in “International Consensus Guidelines
on Management of CMV in Solid-Organ Transplant Patients”
– sponsored by Roche
CMV Prophylaxis cont.
• Ganciclovir – 5mg/kg IV every 24h
– Adjust in renal dysfunction
• Valacyclovir – limited data available
– 15-30mg/kg/dose 3 times daily (max. dose
2000mg)
• Resistant CMV – no data for best practice
– Foscarnet has most evidence
– Cidofovir has little evidence
Duration of CMV Prophylaxis
• D+/R- patients
– Should be between 3-6 months (longer for high risk
groups)
– Humar et al. (IMPACT) trial
• 200 vs. 100 days of prophylaxis in kidney transplants
• 21.3% vs 38.7% incidence of CMV disease at 2 years
• No difference in acute rejection or graft survival
• D+/R+ & D-/R+ patients: at least 3 months
• D-/R- patients: consider acyclovir or valacyclovir

• Low or “Mini-” dosing
• Regular dosing
Conclusion
• Many prophylaxis options available
• Choice must be made on risk factors and
patient population
• Little data and few guidelines available
