Micafungin Versus Liposomal Amphotericin B for Pediatric Patients With Invasive Candidiasis: Substudy of a Randomized Double-Blind Trial
BACKGROUND:Invasive candidiasis is increasingly prevalent in premature infants and seriously ill children, and pediatric data on available antifungal therapies are lacking. METHODS:We conducted a pediatric substudy as part of a double-blind, randomized, multinational trial to compare micafungin (2 m...

description | BACKGROUND:Invasive candidiasis is increasingly prevalent in premature infants and seriously ill children, and pediatric data on available antifungal therapies are lacking.
METHODS:We conducted a pediatric substudy as part of a double-blind, randomized, multinational trial to compare micafungin (2 mg/kg) with liposomal amphotericin B (3 mg/kg) as first-line treatment of invasive candidiasis. Treatment success was defined as clinical and mycologic response at the end of therapy. Statistical analyses were descriptive, as the sample size meant that the study was not powered for hypothesis testing.
RESULTS:One hundred six patients were included in the intent-to-treat population; and 98 patients—48 patients in the micafungin group and 50 patients in the liposomal amphotericin B group—in the modified intent-to-treat population. Baseline characteristics were balanced between treatment groups. Overall, 57 patients were |

Treatment success was defined as clinical and mycologic response at the end of therapy.

RESULTS:One hundred six patients were included in the intent-to-treat population; and 98 patients—48 patients in the micafungin group and 50 patients in the liposomal amphotericin B group—in the modified intent-to-treat population. Baseline characteristics were balanced between treatment groups. Overall, 57 patients were <2 years old including 19 patients who were premature at birth; and 41 patients were 2 to <16 years old. Most patients (91/98, 92.9%) had candidemia, and 7/98 (7.1%) patients had other forms of invasive candidiasis. Treatment success was observed for 35/48 (72.9%) patients treated with micafungin and 38/50 (76.0%) patients treated with liposomal amphotericin B. The difference in proportions adjusted for neutropenic status was −2.4% [95% CI(−20.1 to 15.3)]. Efficacy findings were consistent, independent of the neutropenic status, the age of the patient, and whether the patient was premature at birth. Both treatments were well tolerated, but with a lower incidence of adverse events that led to discontinuation in the micafungin group (2/52, 3.8%) compared with the liposomal amphotericin B group (9/54, 16.7%) (P = 0.05, Fisher exact test).
CONCLUSIONS:Micafungin seems to be similarly effective and as safe as liposomal amphotericin B for the treatment of invasive candidiasis in pediatric patients.
