Wingard 2010

Study characteristics

Methods

Randomization in a 1:1 ratio in permuted blocks (size not stated).

Participants

600 patients with leukaemia or other haematopoietic disorders receiving

allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation treated prophylactically with either voriconazole or fluconazole.

Interventions

Voriconazole: 200 mg orally twice daily for 100 days.

Fluconazole 400 mg once daily for 100 days.

Outcomes

Primary outcome: Fungal free survival at 180 days

Secondary outcomes: incidence of invasive fungal infections. Time to invasive fungal infections. Six month and 1 year relapse free survival. Overall survival. Time to and duration of empiric antifungal therapy. Frequency of adverse events. Incidence of acute or chronic graft‐versus‐host disease

Notes

The follow‐up period was 180 days and 1 year

Reason for exclusion

Ally 2001

All patients had oesophageal candidiasis, which is not an invasive fungal infection according to our inclusion criteria; in addition, 94% of the patients had AIDS
