What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall success rate for patients with no hematology disease

    Overall success rate = number of success patients/number of patients for efficacy evaluation x 100% at end of treatment (overall success is defined as patients with complete or partial response)

    Measured: At the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 4 weeks)

  2. Overall success rate for patients with hematology disease

    Overall success rate = number of success patients/number of patients for efficacy evaluation x 100% at end of treatment (overall success is defined as patients with complete or partial response)

    Measured: At the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 12 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Clinical improvement rate for patients with no hematology disease

    Measured: Week 1 up to the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 4 weeks)

  2. Clinical Improvement rate for patients with hematology disease

    Measured: Week 1 up to the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 12 weeks)

  3. Fungal clearance rate for patients with no hematology disease

    Measured: Week 1 up to the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 4 weeks)

  4. Fungal clearance rate for patients with hematology disease

    Measured: Week 1 up to the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 12 weeks)

  5. Fatality rate for patients with no hematology disease

    Measured: End of the treatment (up to 2 weeks, and up to 4 weeks for refractory patients)

  6. Fatality rate for patients with hematology disease

    Measured: End of the treatment (up to 6 weeks, and up to 12 weeks for refractory patients)

  7. Percentage of participants with common Aspergillus infection sites

    Measured: End of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

  8. Safety assessed by adverse events

    Measured: Up to 2 weeks after end of treatment (up to14 weeks)

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall success rate for patients with no hematology disease (time frame: At the end of the treatment (up to a maximum of 4 weeks)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
