Active clinical trials for "Neutropenia"

This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Amphotericin B liposomes in patients with persistent neutropenia and fever.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the infection rate of leukemia patients who eat two different diets. Patients in the "raw" group will eat cooked food and the addition of raw fruits and vegetables. Patients in the "cooked" group will eat only cooked foods and this is the standard neutropenic diet with no fresh fruits or vegetables allowed. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the infection rate of leukemia patients who eat two different diets. The secondary objectives will be the incidence of fever requiring intravenous antibiotics in each group and death rate.

To evaluate EC/TC (epirubicin and cyclophosphomide or docetaxel and cyclophosphomide) with EC/TC plus DBD (Danggui Buxue Decoction) in adjuvant treatment of breast cancer patients. The aim is to evaluate whether DBD can decrease the incidence of grade 3/4 neutropenia induced by EC/TC regimen during chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine if prophylactic cotrimoxazole makes severe anemia or neutropenia more common in infants exposed to maternal HIV and combination antiretroviral therapy.

The primary purpose is to improve and quicken the microbial diagnosis in severe infections, since only one third of the cases are documented by blood cultures and adequate anti-infective therapy in the 48 hours reduced mortality and morbidity. Our hypothesis is that detection of microbial DNA in blood by real time PCR may increase the number of cases diagnosed for bacteraemia or fungemia and shorten the time to positive results, which will provide information for an adequate anti-infectious therapy.

The purpose of this study is to assess pegfilgrastim starting with the first cycle versus secondary prophylaxis on neutropenic events (including neutropenia +/- fever, dose delays, dose reductions, and hospitalizations) in older patients receiving chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether F18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission tomography scan (PET scan) is useful for the therapy strategy of hepatosplenic candidiasis.

Prevention trial of nosocomial infections in neutropenic prematures with G-CSF

To validate blood draws via a central venous catheter (Port A Cath ®) for pharmacokinetic studies of ciprofloxacin in patients under treatment for childhood cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosages of recombinant human serum albumin/granulocyte colony-stimulating factor fusion protein by injection for preventing neutrophilic granulocytopenia among chemotherapy patients. Conduct Pharmacokinetics (PK) study on recombinant human serum albumin/granulocyte colony-stimulating factor fusion protein with recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor injection as a control.
