Recently, the US FDA has approved Takeda Livtencity (maribavir) to treat patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after transplantation in adults or children 12 years of age or older
In a phase 3 trial, compared with the conventional antiviral treatment selected by doctors, the proportion of patients with undetectable CMV DNA in the blood after 8 weeks of Livtencity treatment more than doubled.
Livtencity has similar efficacy between solid organ transplants and hematopoietic cell transplants
Livtencity was approved through the priority review process and was previously granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) and Breakthrough Drug Designation (BTD) by the FDA
Another part of Livtencity's market opportunity lies in its potential to enter the first-line treatment of CMV infection after transplantation
Takeda’s next major regulatory milestone may come from the dengue vaccine candidate TAK-003
