Safety and efficacy of echinocandin antifungal agents in Candida albicans endophthalmitis.
(PubMed, Antimicrob Agents Chemother)
- "To evaluate the safety and efficacy of echinocandins (rezafungin, RZF; anidulafungin, AFG) in Candida albicans (C...At 48 h post-infection, rabbits received intravitreal injections of liposomal amphotericin B (L-AmB, 10 μg), voriconazole (VCZ, 50 μg), RZF (35 μg), AFG (35 μg), or saline (control)...In vivo, RZF/AFG reduced clinical and histopathological scores, fungal burden, and TNF-α levels, performing similarly to traditional drugs. RZF and AFG demonstrate potent antifungal activity against C. albicans comparable to conventional drugs, along with significant anti-inflammatory effects and acceptable safety profiles."

Integrated Multi-Omics Analysis Elucidates the Metabolic Basis of Enhanced Echinocandin B Biosynthesis and Guides Targeted Engineering in Aspergillus nidulans.
(PubMed, Biotechnol J)
- "Echinocandin B (ECB) serves as a crucial precursor for the antifungal drug anidulafungin, yet its production cost remains high due to low fermentation titers...Overexpression of β-oxidation genes (FOX1, FOX2, POT1) increased ECB titers by 25.1%-33.5%. This study delineates the physiological phenotype underlying high ECB production and demonstrates how multi-omics-driven target identification guides effective metabolic engineering for strain enhancement."

Evaluation of the Synergistic Activity of Anidulafungin with Isavuconazole, Voriconazole, Posaconazole, and Amphotericin B in Candida auris (Candidozyma auris) Isolates.
(PubMed, Infect Drug Resist)
- "High resistance rates were observed for fluconazole (72%) and amphotericin B (48%), whereas no isolates were resistant to echinocandins. The predominance of indifferent interactions, with some partial synergy, suggests that combination therapy may not consistently offer a strong synergistic benefit for these isolates. This exploratory study characterizes the in vitro interaction landscape in our isolate collection, providing foundational data to guide future research and inform clinical decisions where treatment options are scarce."

In Vitro Activity of Rezafungin Against Planktonic and Biofilm Forms of Candida albicans and Nakaseomyces glabratus Clinical Isolates from Vascular Infections in Poland: A Pilot Study.
(PubMed, Pharmaceutics)
- " This study tested susceptibility to antimycotics available in Poland (fluconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, amphotericin B, anidulafungin, caspofungin, and micafungin) using the commercial Micronaut-AM test (Bruker, Bremen, Germany). Furthermore, the high susceptibility of N. glabratus isolates-a species frequently associated with azole resistance-suggests rezafungin may be a valuable addition to the existing antifungal arsenal of multidrug-resistant (MDR) fungal infections in hospital settings. Future research should focus on in vivo models to confirm if these in vitro results translate into accelerated clearance of vascular biofilms."

Antifungal Susceptibility of Clinical Meyerozyma guillermondii Isolates Obtained Between 1994 and 2014: Original Research and Comparison with Published Data.
(PubMed, Pathogens)
- "Nine drugs (amphotericin B, flucytosine, fluconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, anidulafungin, caspofungin, and micafungin) were assessed using the MICRONAUT-AT test. The susceptibility to the new drug, manogepix, as well as isavuconazole, clotrimazole and anidulafungin, was determined using the microdilution method recommended by EUCAST...(4) The data obtained in this study are consistent with reports by other authors and indicate that resistance to azoles or 5-fluorocytosine among clinical isolates of Meyerozyma guilliermondii should be considered. The low MIC values of manogepix suggest the potentially good efficacy of this drug against Meyerozyma guilliermondii species."

Effectiveness and Safety of Empirical Antifungal Strategies in Critically Ill, Non-Neutropenic Patients: A Multi-Center Observational Study.
(PubMed, Infect Drug Resist)
- "Mortality was significantly lower in the group receiving fluconazole (63.16%) compared to those receiving caspofungin (76.80%), liposomal amphotericin B (75%), and anidulafungin (84.83%) (p = 0.028). However, with a confirmed fungal infection rate of only 7.41%, these findings suggest that current patient selection for EAFT is suboptimal. The high overall mortality, coupled with the low infection confirmation rate, underscores the need for improved risk stratification tools to ensure the judicious use of antifungals in this critically ill population."

Time to re-evaluate combination antifungal therapy for invasive aspergillosis and other invasive mycoses.
(PubMed, Lancet Infect Dis)
- "A previous randomised controlled trial of combination therapy with voriconazole plus anidulafungin versus voriconazole alone showed that the combination was safe and associated with a clinically significant reduction in all-cause mortality that, however, failed narrowly to meet conventional levels of significance. In this Personal View, we argue against a binary, negative interpretation of these results, and that the totality of the laboratory and clinical evidence favours a triazole-echinocandin combination for the treatment of immunocompromised patients with proven or probable invasive aspergillosis. Renewed efforts are needed to optimise and evaluate other combination approaches for aspergillosis and other life-threatening invasive fungal diseases as a means by which to mitigate antifungal resistance, maximise and prolong the utility of old and new agents, and drive down mortality."

In vitro activity of eight antifungal drugs against clinical and hospital isolates of Candida parapsilosis complex; a multicenter study, 2023-2024.
(PubMed, BMC Infect Dis)
- "Despite the absence of detectable ERG11 or FKS1 mutations, reduced susceptibility to azoles and echinocandins was observed, primarily among clinical isolates. Environmental and healthcare worker isolates showed lower MIC values, suggesting minimal antifungal selection pressure outside patient care environments. These findings point to emerging antifungal resistance in C. parapsilosis clinical isolates in Iran and emphasize the importance of ongoing surveillance and molecular monitoring to inform therapeutic and infection control strategies. However more studies are required to correlate these findings with clinical outcomes."

First case of a human Candida berthetii systemic infection in a preterm infant: a case report.
(PubMed, ASM Case Rep)
- "Antifungal susceptibility testing, performed using the the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) microbroth dilution method, revealed high minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) to fluconazole and anidulafungin but low MICs for amphotericin B. Despite switching to liposomal amphotericin B, the infant progressed to multiple organ dysfunction and died. This case broadens the current understanding of rare yeast pathogens and highlights the critical need for improved diagnostic tools to accurately detect and identify uncommon Candida species. Clinicians should remain vigilant to the emergence of rare yeast pathogens causing fungemia, especially among immunosuppressed hosts undergoing invasive medical procedures and prolonged exposure to broad-spectrum antimicrobials."
