About this study

Official title: VFEND SPECIAL INVESTIGATION FOR PROPHYLAXIS

Examine the safety and effectiveness of Vfend [voriconazole] for prophylaxix use under general clinical practices.

Medical subject headings
Mycoses

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to VFEND in a participant who received VFEND. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to VFEND was assessed by the physician.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions Not Expected From the Approved Local Product Document (Unknown Adverse Drug Reactions)

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to VFEND in a participant who received VFEND. Expectedness of the adverse event was determined according to the Japanese package insert. Relatedness to VFEND was assessed by the physician.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  2. Proportion of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions by Age

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to VFEND in a participant who received VFEND. Relatedness to VFEND was assessed by the physician. Participants with ADRs were counted by age (<15 years, ≥15 years) to assess whether it was a risk factor for the occurrence of ADRs.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  3. Proportion of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions by Reason for Use

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to VFEND in a participant who received VFEND. Relatedness to VFEND was assessed by the physician. Participants with ADRs were counted by reason for use to assess whether it was a risk factor for the occurrence of ADRs.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  4. Proportion of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions by Long-term Use

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to VFEND in a participant who received VFEND. Relatedness to VFEND was assessed by the physician. Participants with ADRs were counted by long-term use to assess whether it was a risk factor for the occurrence of ADRs.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  5. Proportion of Participants Who Developed Invasive Fungal Infections (IFI Rate)

    IFI rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who developed invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician. In case of "with onset," it was classified as proven diagnosis, probable diagnosis, or possible case according to the diagnostic criteria of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG). Participants judged as proven diagnosis or probable diagnosis were counted as those who developed invasive fungal infections for the calculation of IFI rate.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  6. Proportion of Participants Who Developed Invasive Fungal Infections (IFI Rate) by Age

    IFI rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who developed invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician. In case of "with onset," it was classified as proven diagnosis, probable diagnosis, or possible case according to the diagnostic criteria of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG). Participants judged as proven diagnosis or probable diagnosis were counted as those who developed invasive fungal infections for the calculation of IFI rate. Participants who developed invasive fungal infections were counted by age (<15 years, ≥15 years) to assess whether it contributes to the clinical effectiveness.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  7. Proportion of Participants Who Developed Invasive Fungal Infections (IFI Rate) by Reason for Use

    IFI rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who developed invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician. In case of "with onset," it was classified as proven diagnosis, probable diagnosis, or possible case according to the diagnostic criteria of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG). Participants judged as proven diagnosis or probable diagnosis were counted as those who developed invasive fungal infections for the calculation of IFI rate. Participants who developed invasive fungal infections were counted by reason for use to assess whether it contributes to the clinical effectiveness.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  8. Proportion of Participants With Successful Prophylaxis of Invasive Fungal Infections (Success Rate)

    Success rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician, and participants judged as "without onset" were counted as those with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections for the calculation of success rate.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  9. Proportion of Participants With Successful Prophylaxis of Invasive Fungal Infections (Success Rate) by Age

    Success rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician, and participants judged as "without onset" were counted as those with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections for the calculation of success rate. Participants with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections were counted by age (<15 years, ≥15 years) to assess whether it contributes to the clinical effectiveness.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

  10. Proportion of Participants With Successful Prophylaxis of Invasive Fungal Infections (Success Rate) by Reason for Use

    Success rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Presence or absence of invasive fungal infections was judged as "without onset," "with onset," or "indeterminate" by the physician, and participants judged as "without onset" were counted as those with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections for the calculation of success rate. Participants with successful prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections were counted by reason for use to assess whether it contributes to the clinical effectiveness.

    Measured: Maximum 3 years

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions (time frame: Maximum 3 years). 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?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Apr 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
