Empirical Versus Preemptive Antifungal Therapy

Fungal InfectionLeukemia1 more

RATIONALE: Caspofungin acetate may be effective in treating fungal infections in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome who are receiving treatment for their cancer. It is not yet known whether caspofungin acetate is more effective when treatment starts after development of a fever or after the infection is shown in laboratory test, chest x-ray, or CT scan. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the best time to start caspofungin acetate therapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that is newly diagnosed or in first relapse.

Liposomal Amphotericin B With or Without Sargramostim in Treating Patients With Invasive Fungal...

Infection

RATIONALE: Drugs like liposomal amphotericin B may be able to relieve fungal infection which can be a side effect of chemotherapy. Colony-stimulating factors such as sargramostim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether receiving liposomal amphotericin B plus sargramostim is more effective than receiving liposomal amphotericin B alone in treating patients with invasive fungal infection. PURPOSE: Randomized double-blinded phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of liposomal amphotericin B with or without sargramostim in treating patients with invasive fungal infection.

Salvia Hispanica Seed in Reducing Risk of Disease Recurrence in Patients With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma...

Adult Nasal Type Extranodal NK/T-Cell LymphomaAdult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma31 more

This pilot clinical trial studies Salvia hispanica seed in reducing the risk of returning disease (recurrence) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Functional foods, such as Salvia hispanica seed, has health benefits beyond basic nutrition by reducing disease risk and promoting optimal health. Salvia hispanica seed contains essential poly-unsaturated fatty acids, including omega 3 alpha linoleic acid and omega 6 linoleic acid; it also contains high levels of antioxidants and dietary soluble fiber. Salvia hispanica seed may raise omega-3 levels in the blood and/or change the bacterial populations that live in the digestive system and reduce the risk of disease recurrence in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Alternate Day Micafungin: A PK Study in Pediatric Patients

Fungal Infection

The purpose of this study is to examine the pharmacokinetics of micafungin when it is given on an every other day schedule. The study will determine if every other day micafungin will provide drug exposure equivalent to daily dosing while reducing administration costs and improving patient convenience. Fifteen patients will be enrolled on this study. Blood samples for PK measurements will be obtained for 48 hours following a single dose of micafungin (3 mg/kg).

RATIONALE: Beclomethasone dipropionate may be effective in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing a stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well beclomethasone dipropionate works in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing a donor stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer.

Voriconazole With or Without Interferon Gamma in Treating Patients With Aspergillosis or Other Fungal...

InfectionUnspecified Adult Solid Tumor1 more

RATIONALE: Antifungals such as voriconazole may be effective in controlling fungal infections. Combining voriconazole with interferon gamma may be more effective than voriconazole alone in treating fungal infections. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of voriconazole with or without interferon gamma in treating patients who have aspergillosis or other fungal infections.
