Study Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Vibativ (telavancin) can help to control blood stream infections (BSIs). The safety of this treatment will also be studied. Objectives: Evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Telavancin given for treatment of gram positive bacteremia in cancer patients (including neutropenics).

Primary Outcome

Clinical response assessed: Cure (No fever/chills or symptoms + eradication causing organism); Improvement (Resolution local/systemic symptoms + no new systemic antibacterial treatment); Failure (IF one or more following: Persistence 1+ symptoms \[fever/chills\] + new systemic anti gram positive treatment, \> 72 hours after initiation study drug; or Relapse within 1 month completing antibiotic therapy; or Development of deep-seated infection not previously assessed); Indeterminate (clinical sign
