To collect the efficacy and safety information of fluconazole on infant subjects related to their appropriate use in daily practice.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
30
Candidiasis infection: The recommended dosage in children is 3 mg/kg once daily. Cryptococcal infection: The recommended dosage in children is 6 mg/kg once daily. A dosage of 12 mg/kg once daily may be used, based on medical judgment of the patient's response to therapy. Prophylactic administration for deep mycosis on Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: The recommended dosage in children is 12 mg/kg once daily. Absolute doses exceeding 600 mg/day are not recommended.
Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events
A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to fluconazole in a participant who received fluconazole. Relatedness to fluconazole was assessed by the investigator and sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.).
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks
Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Serious Adverse Events
A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to fluconazole in a participant who received fluconazole. A treatment-related serious adverse event was a treatment-related adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to fluconazole was assessed by the investigator and sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.).
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks
Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events Unexpected From Japanese Package Insert
A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to fluconazole in a participant who received fluconazole. Expectedness of the adverse event was determined according to the Japanese package insert. Relatedness to fluconazole was assessed by the investigator and sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.).
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks
Clinical Efficacy Rate
Clinical effect of treatment was evaluated based on the clinical course excluding mycological effect as follows: (1) effective, (2) ineffective, or (3) unevaluable. Clinical efficacy rate was calculated as follows and presented along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% CI. Clinical efficacy rate (%) = (Number of responders in evaluation of clinical effect) / (Number of participants available for clinical efficacy evaluation) x 100.
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks

Fungi Eradication Rate
Mycological effect of treatment was evaluated as follows: (1) eradicated; the causative fungi detected from the lesion before treatment became undetectable, (2) presumably eradicated; the lesion was improved and sampling of causative fungi became impossible, (3) decreased; the causative fungi were decreased, (4) unchanged; no change was observed in the causative fungi, (5) increased; the causative fungi were increased (including microbial substitution), and (6) indeterminate; the clinical follow-up was inadequate, causative fungi were undetectable, or mycological test was not performed. Fungi eradication rate was calculated as follows. Fungi eradication rate (%) = (Number of participants evaluated as "eradicated" or "presumably eradicated") / (Number of participants available for mycological efficacy evaluation) x 100
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks
Onset Rate of Deep Mycosis
Efficacy of deep mycosis prophylaxis was evaluated by the presence or absence of deep mycosis onset during the observation period. Onset rate of deep mycosis was calculated as follows and presented along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% CI. Onset rate of deep mycosis (%) = (Number of participants with deep mycosis onset by target fungi) / (Number of participants available for prophylactic efficacy evaluation) x 100.
Time frame: MAX 13 Weeks
