Treatment of invasive fungal diseases in cancer patients—Revised 2019 Recommendations of the Infectious Diseases Working Party (AGIHO) of the German …

Background Invasive fungal diseases remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients undergoing intensive cytotoxic therapy. The choice of the most appropriate antifungal treatment (AFT) depends on the fungal species suspected or identified, the patient's risk factors (eg length and depth of granulocytopenia) and the expected side effects. Objectives Since the last edition of recommendations for 'Treatment of invasive fungal infections in cancer patients' of the Infectious Diseases Working Party (AGIHO) of the German Society of Hematology and Medical Oncology (DGHO) in 2013, treatment strategies were gradually moving away from solely empirical therapy of presumed or possib…

6543 Background: High-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients (pts) with aggressive B-NHL failing from immunochemotherapy including rituximab show poor outcome with 3y PFS of 39% (Gisselbrecht et al. JCO 2010). Combining BEAM with 90yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan is a promising option to enhance the efficacy of the high-dose regimen. Methods: Pts without disease progression during salvage therapy of relapsed or refractory CD20+ aggressive B-NHL were included in this prospective, multicenter, phase I/II trial. Primary endpoint was the maximum tolerated dose of 90Yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan given as close as possible to ASCT defined as <2 pts with dose limi…
