Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Antimicrobial solution comprising trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, edetate calcium disodium, and ethanol may help prevent blockages and infections from forming in patients with central venous access catheters or peripheral venous catheters. PURPOSE: This randomized trial is studying an antimicrobial solution or saline solution in maintaining catheter patency and preventing catheter-related blood infections in patients with malignancies.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Incidence of occlusion as defined by the inability to infuse or withdraw 3 cc of saline from the catheter
60 days
Time to development of a catheter-related bloodstream infections during the period of lock therapy administration
60 days
Adverse events
60 days
Study Arms (2)
Arm I: Antimicrobial Solution
EXPERIMENTALAntimicrobial solution into central or peripheral venous catheter (CVC or PVC) once daily for 90 days. Catheter dwell time is 1-24 hours. The catheter is then flushed through before any drug infusion or blood aspiration.
Arm II: Saline Solution
ACTIVE COMPARATORSaline solution into CVC or PVC once daily for 90 days. Catheter dwell time is 1-24 hours. The catheter is then flushed through before any drug infusion or blood aspiration.
Interventions
Given through CVC or PVC.
