Patients with moderate or severe CMV disease less than 21 days old who have a maternal donor who has a CMV response to the peptivators will be screened.

BIOLOGICAL

CMV Cytotoxic T-Lymphocytes

Patients will receive maternal CMV CTLs on day 0. Additional doses of CMV CTLs may be re-infused at a minimum of every two weeks for a maximum of five total infusions (maximum 2.5 x 104 CD3/kg) only in patients not achieving a CR and no prior dose limiting toxicity of any prior dose.

DRUG

Anti-viral Therapy
