Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study will evaluate PK and safety of two dose levels of Micafungin (FK463) as Antifungal prophylaxis in children and adolescents undergoing HSCT

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, repeat-dose pharmacokinetic study that contains two treatment (micafungin 1.0mg/kg and 1.5mg/kg) dose groups. Subjects will be enrolled according to age and stratified by weight to receive either 1.0mg/kg (weight > 25kg) or 1.5mg/kg ( weight < 25kg) micafungin.

Children (4 months to < 2years, 2 to 5 years and 6 to 11 years) and adolescents (12 to 16 years) undergoing HSCT who require antifungal prophylaxis will be enrolled
