Patterns of Real-World Isavuconazole Use - a Study of Patients With Mucormycosis or Invasive Aspergillosis

Completed

Brief Summary: This is a non-interventional medical chart review study aiming to examine the effectiveness, safety, and treatment patterns of isavuconazole in 5 European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and United Kingdom). Eligible patients are adults who have been treated with isavuconazole in routine practice at participating sites since 15 October, 2015 or since the date of launch in the country if it is after 15 October, 2015 until 30 June, 2019. As this is an observational study, patients will be treated based on the standard of care at the discretion of their physician. No drugs will be supplied for this study and patients will receive treatment through standard local practice.

Detailed Description: This observational study will include approximately 600 patients diagnosed with invasive aspergillosis or mucormycosis who received treatment with at least one dose of isavuconazole in the hospital setting.

Patients will be recruited in approximately 20 sites across 5 countries in Europe. Patients will be followed from isavuconazole initiation (index event) until six-months post-index treatment discontinuation, death, loss to follow-up, or 31 December, 2019, whichever occurs first.

De-identified data on patient demographics, disease characteristics, treatment effectiveness, safety outcomes, isavuconazole treatment patterns, and HCRU will be collected from patient medical records and entered into an electronic data capture (EDC) system by site staff. Follow-up data will include details of treatment over time and clinical, radiological, mycological, and healthcare resource utilization outcomes. As this study is retrospective, information pertaining to patient care will already be documented in patient medical records at the time of chart abstraction.
