E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To describe the safety and efficacy of isavuconazole in the treatment of invasive aspergillosis in patients with renal impairment or in patients with invasive fungal disease caused by rare moulds, yeasts or dimorphic fungi. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To determine clinical and mycological response rate by pathogen
To evaluate the survival status at Day 42, 84, 120 and 180. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
In selected sites with appropriate facilities and equipment, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BAL4815 and cleavage product BAL8728 will be evaluated in patients treated with ISA. Seven plasma samples from at least 10 patients aged < 42 years and 10 patients aged > 65 years will be collected on Day 7 or 14 for PK profiling.
If PK data permits within the sub-study, an assessment of the route of administration will be assessed. Additionally, time above the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) should also be captured. |
