“…Liposomal amphotericin B (L‐AmB) has become a therapeutic alternative to amphotericin B deoxycholate (d‐AmB) for the treatment of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), which is an infection that is generally lethal when left untreated [1]. Current recommendations for the treatment of systemic aspergillosis include the use of d‐AmB 1–1.5 mg/kg/day, L‐AmB 5 mg/kg/day, or voriconazole, as first‐line therapy, with caspofungin as an alternative [2–4]. However, there is still a need for new strategies in the treatment of invasive aspergillosis in order to diminish the current high rates of therapeutic failure.…”
