Abstract
Detection of galactomannan has become widely available for diagnosing invasive aspergillosis. The test characteristics, using the Platelia™ enzyme-immunoassay, have been well described. This assay could potentially also be useful for the early evaluation of the efficacy of antifungal therapy and for predicting the outcome in terms of response and survival. In this systematic review, we assessed the available evidence for the use of serum galactomannan at baseline as a prognostic marker, and the predictive value of serum galactomannan kinetics after initiation of antifungal therapy. Overall, serum galactomannan at baseline and galactomannan kinetics appear to be good predictors of therapy response and survival. However, breakpoints for predicting therapy failure and validation in different patient populations are still lacking.
