Description
  • We have evaluated the contribution of 1,3-ß-D-glucan (BG) assay for screening of invasive fungal diseases (IFI) in patients with hematological malignancies. Serum samples from patients at risk of IFI were collected twice a week and retrospectively tested using the BG assay. BG screening was performed on 1143 samples from 91 patients during 104 anticancer treatment cycles. Proven and probable cases of IFI occurred in 9 (8.7%) treatment cycles. Depending on the criterion of positivity used (1> 60 or 1> 80 pg/ml and 2> 60 or 2> 80 pg/ml) the sensitivity was 89%, 89%, 67% and 44%. Although the test was marked as positive in 82%, 68%, 54% and 45% of all the treatment cycles, in the majority of cases, these positivities were probably false. The major limit of the BG test was extremely low PPV (10% to 12%). We have analyzed mucositis, candida colonization, bacteremia, using antimicrobials, erythrocyte and thrombocyte filtered blood products, collecting tubes or sampling via venous catheters.
