入选标准

  • •Concurrent Medication:
  • •Antiviral therapy (e.g., zidovudine).
  • •Prophylaxis (including aerosolized pentamidine) for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP).
  • •Concurrent Treatment:
  • •Radiation therapy for mucocutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma.
  • •Patients must be oriented to person, place, and time and able to give written informed consent.
  • •Patients must have had an acute episode of cryptococcal meningitis that was documented by recovery and identification of cryptococcus from lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture within 4 months of study entry.
  • •Adequate therapy will consist of 6 - 16 weeks of treatment with amphotericin B alone, amphotericin B + oral flucytosine, or a period of the combination followed by amphotericin alone. Adequate regimens will include:
  • •A minimum total amphotericin B dose of 2 grams as monotherapy.
  • •6 weeks of flucytosine at 150 mg/kg/day (or levels of 20 to 100 mcg/ml demonstrated) plus amphotericin B at an average daily dose of at least 0.3 mg/kg/day or to a total dose of 1 gram.
  • •After a shorter period of the combination amphotericin/flucytosine therapy, an additional Y grams of amphotericin B monotherapy will make therapy adequate where Y = 2 gm-(X weeks combination therapy / 3 weeks).
  • •For example, a patient who received 3 weeks of combination followed by amphotericin alone would need an additional 2 gm - 3 weeks/3 weeks = 1 gm of amphotericin B.
  • •Patients need not be receiving amphotericin B at the time of randomization but must begin study maintenance therapy within 3 weeks of cessation of primary amphotericin B therapy.
  • •Prior Medication:
  • •Antiviral therapy (e.g., zidovudine (AZT)).
  • •Prophylaxis (including aerosolized pentamidine) for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP).
