Tigecycline in febrile neutropenic patients with haematological malignancies: a retrospective case documentation in four university hospitals
2014
Objectives
Tigecycline (TGC) is a first-in-class glycylcycline with an expanded spectrum of activity. Although TGC has not been prospectively studied in febrile neutropenia (FN), we observed that occasionally critically ill neutropenic patients unresponsive to other antibiotics were treated with TGC in our departments. The aim of our study was to analyse effectiveness and toxicity of TGC in FN.
