Official title
Isavuconazole in Critically Ill Patients: A Study on Antifungal Efficacy and Safety
Overview
Due to factors such as disease status, gastrointestinal conditions, commonly used medications (e.g., vasopressors), and cardiac output, the plasma concentration of isavuconazole in critically ill patients may differ from that in healthy individuals, exhibiting significant variability. This study aims to explore the variability of isavuconazole plasma concentrations in critically ill patients and its correlation with efficacy and adverse effects. The research includes: 1. The distribution and variability of isavuconazole plasma concentrations in critically ill patients; 2. Clinical outcomes; 3. Adverse effects.
Interventions
- Drug Isavuconazole treatment
Administer isavuconazole as follows: Loading dose: 200 mg every 8 hours (q8h) for three times, Maintenance dose: 200 mg once daily (qd)
Primary outcome measures
- Radiological Progress in Pulmonary Fungal Infections [Time frame: At treatment day 42]
- Plasma concentration [Time frame: On or after day 7 post-dose]
- Change in immune function profiles (cellular and humoral immunity markers) [Time frame: Enrollment (Baseline) → Treatment Day 42]
- Composite infection biomarker profile (including PCT, CRP, IL-6 and WBC) [Time frame: Enrollment (Baseline) → Treatment Day 42]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- Electrocardiogram QT Interval [Time frame: On day 10 post-dose]
- Composite liver function outcome (including ALT, AST, bilirubin, ALP, and albumin). [Time frame: From enrollment (Day 0) through Treatment Day 42]
