Conventional-dose Versus Half-dose Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim for the Prophylaxis of Pneumocystis Pneumonia in Patients with Systemic Rheumatic Disease: A Non-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial.
Acta Medica Okayama 2019 Februrary
Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) due to Pneumocystis jirovecii infection is the leading cause of fatal opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. We will determine whether a daily sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SMX/TMP) dose of 200/40 mg was non-inferior to 400/80 mg for PCP prevention in patients with systemic rheumatic disease under immunosuppressive therapy. This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter controlled trial. The primary outcome is the rate of PCP prevention at 52 weeks. The secondary outcome is the discontinuation rate of SMX/TMP. The trial will evaluate the optimal dose of SMX/TMP for PCP prevention in patients with systemic rheumatic disease under immunosuppressive therapy.
