Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a phase IV pragmatic, multicentre, randomised, simple-blind, parallel arm, centre-stratified clinical trial. The main objective is to compare efficiency of voriconazole preemptive genotyping strategy, compared with routine practice.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary outcome is serum level of voriconazole on fifth day. Secondary outcome is a combined variable of therapeutic failure and adverse events, associated with voriconazole. A total of 146 patients with risk of undergoing invasive aspergillosis who potentially will receive voriconazole will be recruited, and CYP2C19 will be genotyped. If the patient receives voriconazole finally, he will be randomized (1:1 experimental/control). In the experimental arm patients receive dose according to pharmacogenetic algorithm including CYP2C19 genotype and clinical and demographic information. In the control arm patients receive dose according to clinical practice guidelines. In addition, a Spain national health system (NHS) point-of-view cost-effectiveness evaluation is going to be done. Direct costs calculation of each arm will be done.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Experimental group

Based on the genetic study carried out and the patient's characteristics (age, weight, indication), the Pharmacogenetics Unit of the University Hospital La Paz will indicate the dose to be administered based on the therapeutic individualization protocol guided by pharmacogenetics.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Voriconazole preemptive genotyping strategy

Intervention Type DRUG

The patients who finally receives voriconazole will be randomized to receive the dose according to a pharmacogenetic algorithm including CYP2C19 genotype and clinical and demographic information.

Control group

No information will be provided and procedure will be carried out according to normal clinical practice, with clinical monitoring by the doctor in charge.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Voriconazole clinical practice

Intervention Type DRUG

The patients who finally receives voriconazole will be randomized to receive the dose according to clinical practice

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Patient at risk of developing invasive aspergillosis, that will potentially receive treatment or prophylaxis with voriconazole:

A. Pediatric population: children who are going to receive a transplant of hematopoietic precursors (HSCT) and acute myeloid leukemias, as well as relapses of it.

B. Adult population: patients diagnosed with acute leukemia, and those patients with expected prolonged neutropenia, secondary to hematological process and / or after specific treatment (aplastic anemia and variants, myelodysplastic syndrome, solid organ or bone marrow transplant, etc.), and those whose responsible clinician consider individually that they could present a risk of developing a fungal infection.
2. Those who agree to participate in the study by signing informed consent (patients equal or over 18 years old)
3. Subjects under 18 years old whose representative / legal guardian has voluntarily signed the informed consent.
4. In the case of mature under 18 years subjects (12-17 years of age), in addition to the consent signed by the legal guardian, the consent of the subject will be obtained.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patients who for any reason should not be included in the study according to the criteria of the research team.
2. Subjects who are not capable to understand the information sheet and unable to sign the informed consent.
