Brief summary

To collect the efficacy and safety information of voriconazole related to their appropriate use in daily practice.

Interventions

DRUGVoriconazole

Voriconazole Intravenous Solution 200 mg: Voriconazole is administered by intravenous drip infusion at the dose of 6 mg/kg twice daily on day 1 and 3 mg/kg or 4 mg/kg twice daily from day 2 onward in adults. Voriconazole Tablet 50 mg/ Voriconazole Tablet 200 mg: administration for an adult (weighing 40 kg or more) is voriconazole 300mg orally twice daily between meals for day 1 and then 150 mg or 200 mg twice daily between meals from day 2 onward. Depending on the symptoms or in cases where the effect is insufficient, the dosage may be increased. However, the maximum dose on day 1 must be 400 mg twice daily, and the maximum dose from day 2 onward must be 300 mg twice daily. In patients weighing less than 40 kg, voriconazole 150 mg shall be administered twice daily on day 1, and voriconazole 100 mg shall be administered twice daily from day 2 onward. Depending on the symptoms, the maintenance dose from day 2 onward may be increased to 150 mg twice daily.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Serious Treatment Related Adverse Events.16 weeksAdverse events mean all unfavorable events that occur in participants after administration of Voriconazole, irrespective of causal relationship to Voriconazole (including clinically problematic abnormal changes in laboratory test values). Serious adverse events were defined as those including death, fatal risk, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization period, continuous dysfunction, those causing malformation, and serious ones like the above-cited events. Treatment related Adverse Events were evaluated in company with the causal relationship to Voriconazole.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Clinical Response of Cure at the Test-of-Cure(TOC) Visit.16 weeksThe primary endpoint was the efficacy ratio (number of effective cases/number of evaluable cases for efficacy assessment) among the cohort comprising the participants for efficacy analysis. Clinical response of cure was assessed comprehensively by physicians in the three categories, which were effective, ineffective, and not evaluable, based on the clinical symptoms, imaging diagnosis and endoscopy, fungal tests, and serological tests.

Outcome results

Primary

Number of Participants With Serious Treatment Related Adverse Events.

Adverse events mean all unfavorable events that occur in participants after administration of Voriconazole, irrespective of causal relationship to Voriconazole (including clinically problematic abnormal changes in laboratory test values). Serious adverse events were defined as those including death, fatal risk, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization period, continuous dysfunction, those causing malformation, and serious ones like the above-cited events. Treatment related Adverse Events were evaluated in company with the causal relationship to Voriconazole.

Time frame: 16 weeks

Population: The safety analysis population consists of the participants who satisfy the case conditions and in whom administration of this drug was confirmed.

Number of Participants With Clinical Response of Cure at the Test-of-Cure(TOC) Visit.

The primary endpoint was the efficacy ratio (number of effective cases/number of evaluable cases for efficacy assessment) among the cohort comprising the participants for efficacy analysis. Clinical response of cure was assessed comprehensively by physicians in the three categories, which were effective, ineffective, and not evaluable, based on the clinical symptoms, imaging diagnosis and endoscopy, fungal tests, and serological tests.

Time frame: 16 weeks

Population: The efficacy analysis population basically consists of the evaluable cases in accordance with the separately prepared analysis plan (cases judged to have been evaluated appropriately).
