No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Caspofungin (CAS) is used to prevent and treat invasive fungal infections patients older than 3 months. However, the optimal dosing strategy of CAS is lacking in adolescents from 12 to 17 years old, especially those undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), who are vulnertable to fungal infections. The study aimed to establish a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model and assess the dosing schemes of CAS in adolescents with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

Conditions

  • Invasive Fungal Infections

Interventions

DRUG

Caspogunfin

No specific interventions were administrated. Participants receive interventions as part of routine medical care, where CAS was infused intravenously over 60 min at a loading dose of 70 mg/m2 on day 1, followed by a maintenance dose of 50 mg/m2 (maximum: 70 mg daily).
