This review examines the tissue penetration of 11 commonly used systemic antifungal agents (amphotericin B deoxycholate [AmBd], amphotericin B lipid complex [ABLC], liposomal am- photericin B [L-AMB], fluconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, 5-fluorocytosine [5FC], anidulafungin, caspofun- gin, and micafungin) into the clinically relevant compartments for human infection and disease. All human data, ranging from case studies through autopsies to small clinical studies in volunteers or Downloaded from patients, were included. We also considered key laboratory animal data, where relevant, especially if the respective information for humans is absent. Because only free drug is considered to be bio- logically active (20, 21, 22), tissue and fluid concentrations are placed in context with the key physicochemical properties of each agent.

We treated a 71-year-old woman with acute myeloid leukemia(AML-M5a)with low-dose cytarabine, acralubicin, and filgrastim as the induction therapy. On day 7 after the initiation of chemotherapy, she became febrile and agranulocytic, and developed anal pain; therefore, we discontinued the chemotherapy on day 8. Broad-spectrum antibiotics, micafungin, and then liposomal amphotericin B were ineffective. The serum concentration of β-D-glucan was 525 pg/mL. She died of multiple organ failure on day 17. S. prolificans was detected from the blood culture on day 13. Physicians should consider Scedosporium spp. infection when principal antifungal agents are ineffective and fungal infection is strongly suspected. Key words:Scedosporium prolificans, acute myeloid leukemia, β-D-glucan, mold sinuses, or through direct inoculation, such as in Introduction skin puncture 4). S. prolificans-affected body regions include the blood, lungs, bones, and soft Scedosporium species(spp.)are ubiquitous tissue, and S. prolificans disseminates to multiple fungi, distributed in living environments such as organs in many cases.

Across this wide range of potencies, CYP3A4 (CYP3A4), which is often inhibited by antifungal azole drugs, was consistently inhibited more strongly than CYP3A7, with resulting in potential alterations in drug metabolism and adverse clotrimazole being the least selective (1.5-fold) inhibitor and Downloaded from drug/drug interactions.

This was a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm study. Micafungin was administered i.v. at a dose of 1 mg/kg/day (max 50 mg) from the beginning of conditioning until neutrophil engraftment. Treatment success was defined as the absence of proven, probable, possible or suspected IFI through to 4 weeks after therapy. From April 2010 to December 2011, 155 patients were enrolled from 11 institutions in Korea, and 147 patients were analyzed. Of the 147 patients, 121 (82.3%) completed the protocol without premature interruption. Of the 132 patients in whom micafungin efficacy could be evaluated, treatment success was achieved in 119 patients (90.2%). There was no proven fungal infection in any patient. The number of patients with probable, possible and suspected IFI was two, two and nine, respectively. Thirty-five patients (23.8%) experienced 109 adverse events (AEs) possibly related to micafungin.

Both prodrugs are efficiently cleaved in the apical compartment after a 2 h incubation. To further investigate the kinetics of ALP-mediated bioconversion, the concentration-dependent ALP-mediated bioconversions are conducted to determine the Michaelis-Menten constant (K ) of prodrug m bioconversion in Caco-2 monolayers. The saturation curves of Fosphenytoin and Fosfluconazole with the concentration increase are found. The estimated K values of Fosphenytoin and Fosfluconazole are 1160 and 357 μM, respectively[2]. m In Vivo: The apparent half-life for Fosfluconazole bioconversion in intestinal mucosa scraps is 10 min[2]. Fluconazole (FLCZ) is an antifungal agent that is efficacious in the treatment of fungal peritonitis. Fosfluconazole (F-FLCZ) is the phosphate prodrug of FLCZ, which is highly soluble compared with FLCZ.
