Primary or Secondary Prophylaxis with Voriconazole Compared with Posaconazole for Prevention of Invasive Fungal Infections After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

摘要

Background Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a serious complication in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients and are associated with increased costs, morbidity, and mortality. Posaconazole (PCZ) and voriconazole (VCZ) are frequently utilized as antifungal prophylaxis in this population. To date, no direct comparison between PCZ and VCZ exists for the prevention of IFI in adult HSCT patients.
