Brief Summary: RATIONALE Antifungals such as ravuconazole may be effective in preventing fungal infections in patients undergoing chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of ravuconazole in preventing fungal infections in patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the safety and tolerability of ravuconazole for the prevention of invasive fungal infections in patients undergoing non-myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Determine the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of this drug in terms of frequency of breakthrough fungal infections and requirement for empirical antifungal therapy in these patients
Determine the effect of this drug on concurrently administered cyclosporine in these patients
Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug with and without cyclosporine in these patients

OUTLINE This is an open-label dose-escalation study

Patients receive oral ravuconazole once daily beginning within 48 hours of the chemotherapy preparative regimen and before the initiation of cyclosporine Treatment continues until blood counts recover in the absence of unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 8 patients receive escalating doses of ravuconazole until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 8 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed at 4 weeks

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 24 patients will be accrued for this study
