Summary

This study investigates whether the prophylactic use of moxifloxacin during high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation reduces the incidence of clinically significant bacteremia. Further investigations include time to occurrence of fever, duration of fever, overall survival and antibiotic sensitivity of blood isolates.
