2. Patients who receive a multi-organ transplant.
3. Patients who have CMV disease or CMV viremia at Screening.
4. Patients who have a positive donor-specific antibody within 90 days
prior to Randomization confirmed via medical records.
5. Patients whose body weight is more than 120 kg at Screening.
6. Patients who have received the following anti-CMV therapy within 7 days
prior to Randomization and/or plan to receive the following anti-CMV therapy
during the study:

acyclovir, high dose valacyclovir, high dose famciclovir, or cidofovir).
Note: The use of anti-CMV agents per local standard of care during the Rescue
Phase of the study is permitted.
7. Patients who have received the following therapy within 28 days prior to
Randomization and/or plan to receive the following anti-CMV therapy during the
study:
- CMV hyperimmune globulin (eg, CytoGam).
- Intravenous immunoglobulin.
