NCT ID NCT04725942

Summary

This study looked at whether the drug posaconazole, given as a tablet, can safely prevent serious lung fungal infections in patients who have received a stem cell transplant. It followed 360 transplant patients in China for about 3 months each, checking their blood drug levels and monitoring for infections. The goal was to see how well the drug works and how the body processes it in this high-risk group.
