Inclusion Criteria

  1. Be Japanese with Japanese nationality, >=16 years of age at the time of consent.
  2. Be a recipient of HSCT or SOT that is functioning at the time of Screening.
  3. Have a documented CMV infection with a screening value of >455 IU/mL in plasma in 2 consecutive assessments, separated by at least 1 day, as determined by a central specialty laboratory qPCR or comparable quantitative CMV DNA results. Both samples should be taken within 14 days prior to first dose of study treatment with the second sample obtained within 5 days prior to first dose of study treatment at Visit 2/Day 0.
  4. Have the current CMV infection after HSCT or SOT, either primary or reactivation, which, in the investigator's opinion, requires treatment and have any of the following.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants Confirmed Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Viremia Clearance (Clearance of Plasma CMV DNA)
Confirmed CMV viremia clearance will be defined as plasma CMV DNA concentration below the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) to be determined depending on the selected central specialty laboratory, in 2 consecutive postbaseline samples, separated by at least 5 days.
Number of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAE)
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence or effect that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability / incapacity, is a congenital anomaly / birth defect or is medically important due to other reasons than the above mentioned criteria.
Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
TEAEs will be defined as those with a start date on or after the first dose of study treatment, or with a start date before the date of first dose of study treatment but increasing in severity after the first dose of study treatment. An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product. It does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product (including an investigational product for a new indication in Japan), whether or not related to the pharmaceutical product.
Number of Participants with Adverse Events Leading to Interruption with Maribavir
Number of Participants with Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Treatment Discontinuation with Maribavir
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Vital Signs Reported as TEAEs
Vital sign assessments will include blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate and body temperature. Any change in vital signs which will be deemed clinically significant by the investigator will be recorded as TEAEs.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Physical Examination Findings Reported as TEAEs
Any change in physical examination findings by the investigator will be recorded as TEAEs.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Laboratory Parameters Reported as TEAEs
Clinical laboratory evaluations will include biochemistry, endocrinology, hematology and urinalysis. Any change in clinical laboratory abnormalities which will be deemed clinically significant by the investigator will be recorded as TEAEs.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Change in Electrocardiogram (ECG) Reported as TEAEs
12-lead ECG will be evaluated. Any change in ECG assessments which will be deemed clinically significant by the investigator will be reported as TEAEs.
Immunosuppressant Drug Concentration Levels in Blood
Immunosuppressant drug concentration levels solely for participants receiving immunosuppressive therapy at baseline, Day 4, Week 1, 8, and 9 will be accessed.
Number of Participants with TEAEs of New Onset of Acute or Chronic Graft-versus-host Disease (GVHD), Graft Rejection, or Graft Loss

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants Who Maintained CMV Viremia Clearance and CMV Infection Symptom Control Achieved at the End of Study Week 8 Through Weeks 12, 16 and 20
Confirmed CMV viremia clearance will be defined as plasma CMV DNA concentration below the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) to be determined depending on the selected central specialty laboratory, in 2 consecutive postbaseline samples, separated by at least 5 days.
Time to First Confirmed CMV Viremia Clearance
Confirmed CMV viremia clearance will be defined as plasma CMV DNA concentration below the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) to be determined depending on the selected central specialty laboratory, in 2 consecutive postbaseline samples, separated by at least 5 days.
Percentage of Participants with Recurrence of Confirmed CMV Viremia during the 12-Week Follow-up Period in Participants with Confirmed CMV Viremia Clearance at Week 8 Requiring Additional Anti-CMV Treatment
Confirmed recurrence or the confirmed CMV viremia recurrence will be defined as plasma CMV DNA concentration >=LLOQ to be determined depending on the selected central specialty laboratory in 2 consecutive plasma samples at least 5 days apart, after attaining viremia clearance.
Change from Baseline in Plasma CMV Viremia Load
Percentage of Participants with Recurrences of CMV Resistance Mutations after Maribavir Treatment
Number of Kinds for CMV Genes Mutation Conferring Resistance to Maribavir after Maribavir Treatment
