研究概览

简要总结

The purpose of the study is to determine whether voriconazole is as effective as antifungal prophylaxis in patients undergoing chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).

Hypothesis: Voriconazole is superior to placebo in the prophylaxis of lung infiltrates until day 21 after the start of induction chemotherapy.

入选标准

  • Newly diagnosed or relapsed, de novo or secondary AML
  • First induction chemotherapy cycle
  • Expected neutropenic phase of a minimum duration of 10 days
  • Age >= 18 years
  • Legally signed consent form

排除标准

  • Known proven, probable or possible invasive fungal infection at randomization or in patient history
  • Computed tomography (CT) with any signs of a fungal infection according to the European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)/Mycosis Study Group (MSG) criteria, i.e. with any infiltrate (Ascioglu, et al 2002)
  • Any current fever unless explained by non-infectious causes
  • Antibacterial prophylaxis other than TMP/SMX
  • Liver function test [LFT] (AST/ALT/bilirubin) more than 3x the upper normal limit
  • Subjects who are receiving and cannot discontinue one of the following drugs at least 24 hours prior to randomization:
  • Drugs with a known possibility of QTc prolongation (e.g. terfenadine, astemizole, cisapride, pimozide, quinidine);
  • Drugs whose plasma levels may be increased by voriconazole therapy (e.g. sulfonylureas, ergot alkaloids, sirolimus, vinca alkaloids).
  • Subjects who have received the following drugs within 14 days prior to randomization: potent inducers of hepatic enzymes that will reduce voriconazole levels (e.g. rifampicin, carbamazepine and barbiturates)
  • Concomitant therapy with absorbable antifungals
  • Patient has a diagnosis of acute hepatitis or cirrhosis due to any cause
  • Known hypersensitivity or other contraindication to voriconazole
  • Patient is unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol.
  • Diseases or disabilities preventing the patient from participating in the trial
  • Females of childbearing potential without negative serum pregnancy test at baseline or within 72 hours prior to start of study drug

主要结局

次要结局

  • To determine and compare between study arms the: incidence of fever and other signs of infection
  • incidence and type of documented bacteremia
  • rate of patients with systemic open-label antifungal therapy
  • time to initiation of systemic open-label antifungal therapy
  • duration of absolute neutrophil count < 500/µl
  • rate and type of proven, probable and possible breakthrough invasive fungal infections
  • rate of patients with fever of unknown origin
  • incidence and severity of adverse events
  • trough voriconazole plasma level after day 8 of study treatment
  • direct costs of systemic antibiotics, antifungals and antivirals and diagnostic imaging
  • overall costs in terms of the diagnosis related groups applied to the study patients
