Developmental phase



Assessment

Primary outcomes

1. The efficacy of micafungin in patients with a proven or probable invasive fungal infection is evaluated on the 14th day (initial assessment) and at the end of dosing (final assessment).
2. The efficacy of micafungin in patients with a possible invasive fungal infection is evaluated on the 7th day (initial assessment) and at the end of dosing (final assessment).

Key secondary outcomes

1. Persistence rate of micafungin administration
2. Adverse event during micafungin administration and follow-up
3. Mortality rate during micafungin administration
4.Susceptibility of isolated Candida spp.

Interventions/Control_1

1. Patients with a proven or probable invasive fungal infections
Micafungin, 150 mg (dissolved in saline) per day, is administered as a more than 1-hour infusion. Initial assessment is done on the 14th day, and the end or continuance of administration is decided. If the effect, based on a patient's symptoms and the physical examination findings, is insufficient within 14 days, the dose increase or change to other drug at a physician's discretion is permitted. Micafungin (300 mg) is administered to the patients with funduscopic finding.

Interventions/Control_2

2. Patients with a possible invasive fungal infections
Micafungin, 100 mg (dissolved in saline) per day, is administered as a more than 1-hour infusion. Initial assessment is done on the 7th day, and the end or continuance of administration is decided. If the effect, based on a patient's symptoms and the physical examination findings, is insufficient within 7 days, the dose increase or change to other drug at a physician's discretion is permitted.
