Investigational Agents for the Treatment of Resistant Yeasts and Molds

Abstract: Purpose of Review This review summarizes the investigational antifungals in clinical development with the potential to address rising drug resistance patterns. The relevant pharmacodynamics, spectrum of activity, preclinical studies, and latest clinical trial data are described. Recent Findings Agricultural and medicinal antifungal use has been selected for inherently drug-resistant fungi and acquired resistance mechanisms. The rates of fungal infections and immunocompromised populations continue to grow as fe… Show more

“…Rezafungin Um Rezafungin (EMA: "Orphan Drug"-Status seit 2021) soll die Klasse der Echinocandine zukünftig erweitert werden. Modifikationen der chemischen Strukturformel bedingen eine bessere Löslichkeit und wesentlich höhere Halbwertszeit im Vergleich zu den Schwestersubstanzen Anidulafungin, Caspofungin und Micafungin [6]. Diese erlaubt sogar eine wöchentliche i. v. Einmalgabe und ist so unter Umständen ebenfalls für den ambulanten Bereich interessant [12].…”

“…It binds the 1,3-glucan synthase, but via alternative binding sites rendering it unaffected by FKS mutations. 57 Differently from echinocandins, ibrexafungerp can be administered both intravenously and orally and could be used in different fungal infections, from superficial to lifethreatening. 58 Several clinical trials studied the effectiveness of ibrexafungerp in invasive candidiasis, invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC).…”

“…"Azol antifungal" sınıfı ilaçların moleküler hedefi lanosterol 14 α-demetilazdır ve bu sınıfta yer alan ilaçlar mukoza kandidozları başta olmak üzere birçok mantar enfeksiyonunun tedavisinde ilk seçenek olarak kullanılırlar (1,2) . Bu ilaçların hedeflerinde olmayan insan sitokrom P450 enzim sisteminin inhibisyonu ile kardiyotoksisite, hepatotoksisite veya görme bozuklukları gibi yan etkiler oluşur (1) .…”

“…CYP51, mantar hücre zarının oluşumunu ve bütünlüğünü sağlar. CYP51'in özgün inhibisyonu ise mantarda toksik sterollerin birikimine neden olur (1,2) . Yukarıda anılan nedenlerle hedefte olmayan insan sitokromlarını etkilemeksizin mantara ilişkin CYP51'in özgün inhibisyonu mantar tedavisinde önemli bir adım olacaktır.…”
