Brief summary
PRINCIPAL ENDPOINT To value valganciclovir efficacy in advance treatment of CMV in patients received allogenic transplant with a uniform treatment. SECONDARY ENDPOINT To value valganciclovir security in advance treatment of CMV in in patients received allogenic transplant with a uniform treatment. The security will be valued by the % of patients that: Will have negative CMV Neutropenia \<1000 neutrophils/mm3 or \<500 neutrophils/mm3 in the first 35 days of treatment - follow-up Renal toxicity in the first 35 days of treatment - follow-up (defined by elevated creatinine \>1mg/dL or twice the basal value) CMV illness during the treatment or in the next 2 months Blood Antigenemia / PCR positive in the next 2months of treatment This dates Hill be compared with a patients control group treated with intravenous valganciclovir

Maximum in the 72 hours from the antigenemia or PCR-CMV detection * Be the first or second time of a CMV infection * Sign the informed consent * Pregnancy negative test in fertile age patients
Exclusion criteria
* Patients received auto or syngenic TPH * Patients \<50 kg weight * Known allergy or hypersensibility patients to valganciclovir, ganciclovir or aciclovir * Digestive intolerant: nauseous, vomit and or diarrhea that could difficult oral administration of valganciclovir * Patients that presents CMV infection or that is being evaluated for suspected CMV * Patients that have presented \>2 CMV infection episode, before the current one * Severe liver disease defined by bilirubin ≥ 10mg/dL * Treated with: foscarnet, ganciclovir, cidofovir or another antiviral drug active to CMV, in the previous 30 days at the current episode * Neutrophils \< 500 /µL at the beginning of valganciclovir treatment. Patients with \>500 PMN/µL and \< 1000/µL must start a G-CSF treatment to get neutrophils value \> 1000/µL * Platelets \< 25/mm3 even receiving transfusion * Clearance Creatinine \< 10mL/min or dialysed patients * Pregnancy or lactant women * Other contraindication detailed in the filling card * Previous inclusión in this study at the treated group. Is allowed that a patient participate as a control case and after that receive valganciclovir treatment in after CMV episode
