Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The percentage of patients with a peak number of circulating CMV-reactive T-cells above 10 x 10^6/l within the first two months post single positive PCR result (or ACT infusion), measured in the first two months following ACT infusion.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
