A Phase 3 Efficacy and Safety Study of Fosmanogepix for the Treatment of Adult Participants With Candidemia and/or Invasive Candidiasis.
Description

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Fosmanogepix) for the potential treatment of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis, a life-threatening fungal infection caused by several species of yeast called Candida. The study is seeking patients who have a diagnosis of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis. Two-thirds of all patients will receive the study medication fosmanogepix Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fosmanogepix tablets. One-third of all patients will receive a standard of care regimen of caspofungin Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fluconazole capsules. Fosmanogepix or caspofungin will first be given as an Intravenous (IV) infusion directly into a vein in the arm each day at the study clinic. Fosmanogepix tablets or fluconazole capsules will be taken orally by mouth daily either at the study clinic, or at home if patients are well enough to be discharged from the hospital. The treatment effect in patients receiving fosmanogepix to those receiving caspofungin/ fluconazole will be compared. The primary aim is to show that fosmanogepix is not inferior (not worse) to caspofungin/ fluconazole with a noninferiority margin of 15%. The duration of study treatment and number of study visits will vary depending on how long the patient will be treated for the infection. Treatment will continue for a maximum of 6 weeks depending on when the infection is cleared and whether other symptoms related to the infection have improved. There will also be a follow-up visit 6 weeks after the study treatment was stopped.

β-D-Glucan (BDG) Surveillance With Preemptive Anidulafungin vs. Standard Care for Invasive Candidiasis in Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) Patients
Description

This is a single center, prospective, open label assessment of β-D-glucan surveillance with preemptive anidulafungin therapy versus standard care for the prevention of invasive candidiasis in at-risk surgical intensive care unit (SICU) patients. Subjects will be stratified by APACHE II score and randomized in 3:1 fashion to either biweekly surveillance using the β-D-glucan assay or standard care. Subjects in the active monitoring arm will receive intravenous anidulafungin should the β-D-glucan exceed 60 pg/mL on a single determination. Subjects in the standard care arm will have biweekly blood draws for β-D-glucan, but the specimens will be batched and tested retrospectively. Antifungal use in the standard care arm is at the discretion of the treating physicians. The primary study end-points are the feasibility of a preemptive antifungal strategy in a SICU setting, β-D-glucan test characteristics, and the safety and tolerability of preemptive anidulafungin. Risks associated with study participation include the risks associated with blood draws, study drug related side effects, and the potential for loss of confidentiality.

Comparison of Uncomplicated Candidemia Therapy Duration in Children
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare antifungal therapy duration in pediatric uncomplicated candidemia. The specific aims are: * Compare the desirability of outcome ranking in children with uncomplicated candidemia randomized to 7 additional days of antifungal therapy (standard-course) versus no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) after already receiving 7 days of echinocandin therapy. * Compare the 14-day desirability of outcome measure for subjects with a negative and those with a positive T2Candida® biomarker at day 7 of therapy within randomized groups. Participants meeting eligibility criteria will be approached and consented between day 5 and 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy. On day 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy, inclusion and exclusion criteria will again be reviewed for consented patients and those still eligible will be randomized 1:1 to the two study arms. Researchers will compare no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) versus 7 additional days of systemic antifungal therapy (standard-course) in pediatric patients with uncomplicated candidemia who have already received 7 days of primary systemic antifungal therapy to see if shorter durations are as effective as longer durations in treating uncomplicated candidemia.

BIOPIC: Fungal Biomarkers for Diagnosis and Response to Therapy for Pediatric Candidemia
Description

The purpose of the study is to 1) define the operating characteristics of fungal biomarker assays in pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis, 2) determine the change in fungal biomarker assay results in children who develop invasive candidiasis, and 3) create a biobank of blood samples from pediatric patients at high-risk for invasive candidiasis and those with invasive candidiasis for future testing of fungal biomarker assays and development of new fungal biomarker assays. The study will assemble a prospective cohort of pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis. Blood samples for biomarker testing will be obtained at the time a patient has a clinical indication for blood culture attainment. Additional blood sampling will be performed on the sub-set of patients that are found to have invasive candidiasis. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of biomarker assays will be determined for each biomarker assay. No PHI will be stored in the database and limits on blood draws (3 ml/kg in an 8 week period) will be adhered to.

Study Of The Pharmacokinetics And Safety Of Voriconazole In Children 2 To 11 Years Old Who Are At High Risk For Systemic Fungal Infection
Description

In this study we will measure the concentration of the drug called voriconazole which is used to fight infections caused by fungus in children who usually are cancer patients and have their immune system down. Since we know the dose in adults, and we think we know the matching doses in the young patients ages 2 to 12 years old, we will compare the amount of drug that goes into the system with what we know works in adults. We give the drug by a needle directly into the blood, then few days later we stop that and give the drug by mouth. Meanwhile, we draw a little bit of blood at certain times to measure the drug in it.

Voriconazole to Prevent Systemic Fungal Infections in Children
Description

This study will examine how children's bodies metabolize and eliminate the anti-fungal drug voriconazole. The results will yield information needed to make recommendations for safe and effective dosing of the drug in children. Children with reduced immune function-such as those receiving drugs for cancer treatment-are at high risk for serious fungal infections. Children between 2 and 12 years old who need treatment to prevent fungal infections may be eligible for this study. Candidates will be screened with a physical examination, eye examination, and blood and urine tests. Children in the study will be hospitalized for 21 days. They will receive voriconazole twice a day (every 12 hours) for 8 days, infused through a vein over a period of 1 to 2 hours. The dose will be determined based on the individual child's weight. Blood samples will be collected at various intervals before and after the infusions on days 1, 2, 4 and 8 to determine the amount of drug in the blood. On day 8, the child will have another physical and eye examination, as well as additional blood and urine tests. If additional treatment is required, voriconazole may be continued for up to day 21. (Children who require the drug for more than 21 days may receive it under another research protocol.) On the last day of treatment, the child will have another physical examination, and blood and urine tests. These procedures will be repeated again at 30 to 35 days following the last dose of drug. A small sample of blood will also be analyzed for genetic information related to the rate of metabolism of voriconazole-that is, how fast or slow it is cleared (eliminated) by the liver. Voriconazole is effective against several different fungi. It may protect children against serious fungal infections with fewer side effects than standard available therapy.
