A Study of Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Repeated Dose of Micafungin as Antifungal Prophylaxis in Children and Adolescents Who Undergo Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant
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
