Comparison of Fluconazole vs Voriconazole to Treat Fungal Infections for Blood and Marrow Transplants (BMT CTN 0101)

Summary

The study is designed as a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, prospective, comparative study of fluconazole versus voriconazole for the prevention of fungal infections in allogeneic transplant recipients. Recipients will be stratified by center and donor type (sibling vs. unrelated) and will be randomized to either the fluconazole or voriconazole arm in a 1:1 ratio.
