Moxifloxacin Prophylaxis: Moxifloxacin in the Prevention of Bacteremia After High-Dose Chemotherapy and Transplantation of Peripheral Stem Cells - Full Text View

Sponsor:	University of Cologne
Information provided by:	University of Cologne
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00398411

Purpose

This study investigates whether the prophylactic use of moxifloxacin during high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation reduces the incidence of clinically significant bacteremia.

Further investigations include time to occurrence of fever, duration of fever, overall survival and antibiotic sensitivity of blood isolates.
