Summary

CMV disease remains the most frequent infectious complication post-transplant and it is associated to high morbidity and even mortality. Global efforts from both transplant physicians and researchers in the field is needed to better characterize the host-virus interactions in the transplant setting, with the aim of decreasing the burden of disease and improve the well-being of patients.

"HORUS" (Casting light on HOst-cytomegaloviRUs interaction in Solid organ transplantation) study is a European research project, funded by the European Commission (Horizon Europe) involving 16 partners in seven European countries (France, Spain, Czech Republic, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Italy) aiming to better characterize the host-CMV interactions in SOT recipients. The first aim of HORUS study will be to build a European cohort of SOT recipients including clinical characterization and the constitution of a biocollection, which is the aim of HORUS cohort, in order to perform biological, immunological, gene expression, viral kinetics and deep viral genome characterization in the global European HORUS project to improve our understanding of the development of a CMV immune response in the context of immunosuppression.
