Efficacy and safety of posaconazole in prevention of invasive fungal infections during allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a single-center retrospective analysis

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of posaconazole (PCZ) in the prevention of invasive fungal disease (IFD) during allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods The medical records of 80 patients who received allo-HSCT at our center from March 2017 to March 2...

Methods The medical records of 80 patients who received allo-HSCT at our center from March 2017 to March 2021 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. They were accordingly divided into PCZ group (n=50) and control group (n=30, taking other anti-fungal drugs). The efficacy and safety of PCZ was analyzed in the prevention of IFD. Results In the PCZ group, 6 patients (12.0%) developed IFD, including 2 confirmed cases and 4 clinically diagnosed. While, IFD occurred in 14 cases from the control group, including 6 confirmed, 6 clinically diagnosed and 2 suspected cases. The incidence of IFD was significantly lower in the PCZ group than the control group (P=0.001). Moreover, in the PCZ group, 38 patients (10.5%) with primary prevention developed 4 cases of IFD, and 2 cases (16.7%) of IFD occurred in 12 patients of secondary prevention, showing no significant difference in the IFD incidence (P=0.951). The IFD-related mortality (21.0% vs 61.5%, P=0.030) and rate of abnormal liver function (20.0% vs 46.7%, P=0.012) were both significantly lower in the PCZ group than the control group. Conclusion PCZ is effective in the prevention of IFD during allo-HSCT, and reduces IFD-related deaths and occurrence of adverse reactions.ZHANG YanfangLOU ShifengCHEN ShuZHOU KangLUO YunLUO YunHUANG XiEditorial Office of Journal of Third Military Medical Universityarticleposaconazoleallogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantationinvasive fungal infectionprophylactic antifungal therapyMedicine (General)R5-920ZHDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, Vol 43, Iss 21, Pp 2307-2312 (2021)
