Unfortunately, proven anti\u2010BK viral therapies are limited. The Seraph 100 mimics the action of the natural glycocalyx, which binds pathogens via heparin sulfate proteoglycans. In this case report, we describe the use of this filter to facilitate the clearance of BK viremia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our patient was a 14\u2010year\u2010old cardiac transplant recipient secondary to familial dilated cardiomyopathy. She developed BK nephropathy resulting in end stage kidney disease (ESKD). After failed medical management and immunoreduction over 4\u2009years, the Seraph 100 Microbind Affinity Blood Filter was utilized extracorporeally in line with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for 48\u2009h to eliminate detectable BK viral replication.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The patient's BK titers initially increased negligibly but cleared within 2\u2009months of Seraph 100 treatment, and she successfully underwent kidney transplantation without recurrence of BK viremia.
