Abstract Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a major infectious agent causing severe complications in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients, thereby warranting the need for aggressive preemptive or targeted antiviral therapy. However, prolonged or repeated use of antiviral agents, such as ganciclovir (GCV), foscarnet (FOS), and cidofovir (CDV), can result in drug-resistant CMV infection, posing challenges to successful outcomes. Here, we report a case of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia and drug-resistant CMV infection who presented with persistent CMV DNAemia, colitis, pneumonia, and encephalitis. An intra-host diversity of UL97 and UL54 mutations were detected through the genotypic resistance testing conducted on two blood samples (D+199 and D+224) and a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimen (D+260) collected from the patient. UL97 L595W/L595F and L595W mutations were detected in the blood and CSF samples, respectively, that conferred GCV resistance. UL54 F412L mutation detected in all three samples conferred GCV/CDV resistance. However, the V787L mutation of UL54, conferring GCV/FOS resistance, was observed only in the D+224 blood sample. Despite combination therapy with FOS and high dose GCV and adjunctive therapy with leflunomide, the patient died from CMV infection and multiple organ failure on D+279. Further data on resistant mutations and intra-host diversity of CMV should be accumulated to elucidate the antiviral resistance and related outcomes.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
