This is a randomized study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of early de-escalation treatment of empyrical antibiotics treatment in neutropenic fever patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). All patients undergoing HSCT will receive levofloxacin as regular prophylaxis. After patients develop neutropenia fever, the empirical antibiotics protocol will be impenem. In case of persistent for 48 hours, vancomycin will be added. If afebrile is achieved for 72 hours, all patients will randomized into early de-escalating group or control group. In de-escalating group, the empirical antibiotics treatment will be stopped and then levofloxacin prophylaxis will be resumed. In the control group, the empirical antibiotics treatment will be continue until recovery of neutropenia or at least 7 days.
