Posaconazole for Pulmonary Fungal Infection Prophylaxis in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Patients

China360 participantsStarted 2021-02-08

Plain-language summary

This open, prospective, observational multicenter cohort study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety as well as the effective serum concentration of Posaconazole for prevention of pulmonary fungal infections in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The correlation of UGT1A4\*3 genotype and Cmin of Posaconazole, as well as invasive fungal disease (IFD) breakthrough rates will be utilized to evaluate the efficacy while the safety of Posaconazole will be assessed by the overall incidence and severity of adverse events in patients.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 13 years old * The primary causes of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation include aplastic anemia, acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, or other hematologic diseases in patients pretreated for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The types of transplantation include autologous transplantation, syngeneic transplantation, matched sibling donor transplantation, unrelated donor transplantation and haploidentical transplantation * The patients themselves or their authorized clients agree to participate in the clinical study and sign the informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Those with evidence of active fungal infection within 3 weeks prior to enrollment * Allergic to azole drugs * Severe abnormal liver function * Rifampicin, isoniazid, phenytoin, carbamazepine, and long-acting barbiturates were used in combination during the study * Any predictably increased patient risk or other factors that might interfere with the outcome of a clinical trial

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
