NCT00893555

Brief Summary

The objective of this study proposal is to determine whether pharmacologic optimization of voriconazole by means of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) results in improved patient outcomes (efficacy and safety) and is more cost-effective compared to the current standard of care.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The primary clinical endpoint will be a global response consisting of a combined endpoint of toxicity and response to therapy (clinical, microbiologic and radiologic responses) 28 days after starting treatment with voriconazole.

    28 days

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Overall mortality

    7 and 28 days; 12 weeks

  • % of serum concentrations within 2-5mg/L

    7 and 28 days; 12 weeks

  • % switched to salvage therapy or measured concentration level in control arm

    7 and 28 days; 12 weeks

  • Side effects

    7 and 28 days; 12 weeks

  • Time to global response

    7 and 28 days; 12 weeks

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
