Brief Summary

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

Interest of a Taurolidine lock at each catheter closure in the primary prevention of catheter-related endoluminal infection in paediatric oncology.

Multicentric, controlled, randomized and double-blind label study.

Detailed Description

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

The patient will be followed according to the type of pathology and the respective treatment protocol either Taurolock or physiological serum at each time cathter will be used.
