What was measured

The percentage of participants requiring empiric antifungal therapy will be determined based on the presence of prolonged fever and neutropenia during each neutropenia course.

Analysis population: Evaluable patients (ineligible and inevaluable due to having IFI before IFI monitoring period were excluded)

Groups in this outcome

Arm I (Caspofungin Acetate)

Patients receive caspofungin acetate IV over one hour QD beginning within 24-72 hours following the last dose of chemotherapy for each course. and continuing until ANC \> 100-500/uL following the nadir or the next chemotherapy course begins. Caspofungin Acetate: Given IV Laboratory Biomarker Analysis: Correlative studies

Arm II (Fluconazole)

Patients receive fluconazole IV over 1-2 hours or PO QD beginning within 24-72 hours following the last dose of chemotherapy for each course. Fluconazole: Given IV or PO Laboratory Biomarker Analysis: Correlative studies
