Antimicrobial Revision in Persistent Febrile Neutropenia

NCT05784844 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2024-09-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Febrile neutropenia is often seen in patients with hematologic malignancies who receive cytotoxic chemotherapy. These patients are usually placed on posaconazole prophylaxis upon starting chemotherapy. If an episode of febrile neutropenia occurs, generally an anti-pseudomonal beta lactam, like cefepime or piperacillin-tazobactam, is initiated. In patients who continue to fever on these agents, the optimal method of antimicrobial revision has yet to be determined.
