The aim of this study is to develop an effective administration schedule of oral voriconazole in the treatment of invasive fungal infections associated with hematological diseases. Since clinical effectiveness and the incidence of adverse effects are dependent on the trough levels, adjusting the dose to achieve effective serum concentration is important when using voriconazole for the treatment of invasive fungal infections. Since trough levels of voriconazole is mainly dependent of the metabolism via CYP2C19, optimal initial dose of this drug is unpredictable, and it is important to adjust the dose according to serum levels to achieve an effective serum concentration of 2 – 6 mg/L. In this study, we monitor the level of voriconazole in the treatment of fungal infections in hematological disease, and elucidate whether monitored dose scheduling of voriconazole is effective in achieving the optimal therapeutic dose.

- Treatments
Voriconazole 300 mg bid p.o. day 1, followed by 200 mg bid p.o. day 2-
- Adjustments according to trough plasma levels
Dose of voriconazole is adjusted according to the trough voriconazole levels from the next dose after the trough level is reported.
