A Prospective Trial of Dalbavancin-Based Prophylaxis in Children and Adolescents With High-Risk Leukemia

A Prospective, Single-Arm, Trial of Dalbavancin-Based Prophylaxis in Children and Adolescents With High-Risk Leukemia

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a single-arm pilot clinical trial evaluating dalbavancin-based prophylaxis in children and adolescents with acute myeloid leukemia or relapsed lymphoblastic leukemia receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy. Primary objective: \- To estimate the rate of bacterial bloodstream infection in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy receiving dalbavancin-based prophylaxis Secondary objectives: * To describe the population pharmacokinetics of every 28 days dalbavancin up to 12 weeks in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To describe the tolerability of every 28 days dalbavancin prophylaxis in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To describe the acceptability of every 28 days dalbavancin prophylaxis in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To estimate the rates of likely bacterial infections, Clostridioides difficile infection, and febrile neutropenia in pediatric patients receiving dalbavancin-based prophylaxis
