A Randomized, Double Blind Phase II Proof-of-Concept Superiority Trial of Fosravuconazole 200 mg or 300 mg Weekly Dose Versus Itraconazole 400 mg Daily, All Three Arms in Combination With Surgery, in Patients With Eumycetoma in Sudan
Abstract
This study is a single-center, comparative, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active-controlled, clinical superiority trial of Fosravuconazole versus Itraconazole combined with surgery in subjects with eumycetoma in Sudan.
There will be three arms in this study: The first arm will be Fosravuconazole 300 mg weekly, the second arm will have Fosravuconazole 200 mg weekly and the control arm is the standard treatment using itraconazole 400mg daily.
At 3 months time-point, interim analysis will be done and one of the study arms will be dropped according to the drop-the-loser design, based on efficacy or toxicity.
Conditions: Mycetoma.
Primary outcome: Proportion of patients with complete cure at the End-of-Treatment.
Enrollment: 104 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
