About
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the efficacy the favorable response rate and safety of L-AmB(liposomal amphotericin B) for the treatment of br-IFD(breakthrough invasive fungal disease) in Chinese children and adolescent patients with hematological malignancies receiving triazoles/echinocandins antifungal prophylaxis.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Chinese children and adolescent with hematological malignancies will taking L-AmB as part of their regular medical care for br-IFD. The efficacy and safety data will be recorded.
Full description
This is a single center, prospective, single-arm and observational study. Patients with breakthrough IFD in children and adolescent patients with hematological malignancies receiving triazoles or echinocandins prophylaxis who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria receive liposomal amphotericin B (L-AmB)(AmBisome) for antifungal therapy. The efficacy and safety will be observed.
The response rate is assumed to be 67%, a sample size of 38 will produce a two-sided 95% confi dence interval for response rate with a width 0.3 (30%). With a 10% dropout consideration, 43 patients will need to be enrolled.
The research objective of this study is to: (a) Evaluate the efficacy and safety of L-AmB for the treatment of br-IFD in Chinese children and adolescent patients with hematological malignancies receiving triazoles/echinocandins prophylaxis.
(b) Identify baseline characteristic that may be associated with better response rates treated with L-AmB.
These research objectives will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the roles of L-AmB in the treatment of breakthrough IFD in children and adolescent patients, and provide scientific evidence for clinical practice.
