Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
OPTIFIL is a pilot prospective multicenter study based over the hypothesis that the normalization of the functional imaging 18F-FDG-PET/CT during the Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) could occur earlier than that of conventional imaging. This study evaluates the therapeutic response through a systematic 18F-FDG-PET/CT at week 6. The latter response will be correlated with the kinetics of selected biomarkers including antigens (galactomannan, β-D glucans), circulating Aspergillus DNA and anti-Aspergillus host response markers in addition to the conventional imaging tools obtained at weeks 6 and 12.
