Evaluation of the Practice of Antifungal Prophylaxis Use in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Results From the SEIFEM 2010-B Registry
Background. To analyze the efficacy of antifungal prophylaxis (AFP) with posaconazole and itraconazole in a real-life setting of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) during the first induction of remission. Methods. From January 2010 to June 2011, all patients with newly diagnosed AML were con...

To analyze the efficacy of antifungal prophylaxis (AFP) with posaconazole and itraconazole in a real-life setting of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) during the first induction of remission. Methods. From January 2010 to June 2011, all patients with newly diagnosed AML were consecutively registered and prospectively monitored at 30 Italian hematological centers. Our analysis focused on adult patients who received intensive chemotherapy and a mold-active AFP for at least 5 days. To determine the efficacy of prophylaxis, invasive fungal disease (IFD) incidence, IFD-attributable mortality, and overall survival were evaluated. Results. In total, 515 patients were included in the present analysis.
