Bridging antifungal prophylaxis with micafungin in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a retrospective analysis.
Hematology (Amsterdam, Netherlands) 2021 December
OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to assess the tolerability and effectiveness of micafungin prophylaxis during the neutropenic phase in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods We conducted a retrospective study of 73 consecutive adults receiving antifungal prophylaxis with micafungin bridged to voriconazole/itraconazole in our center from July 2013 to March 2018. Clinical and transplant-related demographics and data on fungal infection post-transplant were collected. Results Micafungin was effective in 71 (97.3%) leukopenic patients. The fungal-free survival was 91.8%, 80.6%, and 77.6% respectively at 30, 60, and 100 days after HSCT. All patients had no micafungin-related adverse events. Conclusions The utility of micafungin bridged to voriconazole/ itraconazole for antifungal prophylaxis after HSCT is beneficial.
