About this study

This prospective study will compare the pharmacokinetic exposure to liposomal amphotericin B between critically ill patients and non-critically ill (hematology) patients in an early and late exposure day.

Read the detailed description

This phase IV, open label, non-randomized, monocenter pharmacokinetic study will be carried out in critically ill and non-critically ill (hematology) patients receiving multiple dose treatment with L-AmB.

The pharmacokinetic exposure to liposomal amphotericin B in plasma, urine, BAL and ascitic fluid will be compared between the two population groups in an early and late exposure day.

Correlating covariates will be identified to provide a rationale for optimal dosing strategy in critically ill patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma exposure and PK parameters

    To document and compare plasma exposure and PK parameters in an ICU vs. non ICU hematology patient cohort in the early and late phase of L-AmB treatment.

    Measured: July 2020

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Covariates

    To document correlating covariates and to stimulate the pharmacokinetics of L-AmB to provide a rationale for optimal dosing strategy in critically ill patients.

    Measured: July 2020

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pharmacokinetics and Liposomal Amphotericin B, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ruth Van Daele, PharmD (+3216343264, ruth.vandaele@uzleuven.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Plasma exposure and PK parameters (time frame: July 2020). 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 3 Jul 2024.
