Micafungin, an echinocandin antifungal agent with a novel mechanism of action, inhibits beta-(1,3)-D-glucan synthase interfering with fungal cell wall synthesis. It shows excellent antifungal activity against a broad range of Candida spp., including azole-resistant strains, and Aspergillus spp. in in vitro and animal studies.

Micafungin: A New Echinocandin [PDF]
Micafungin, a potent inhibitor of 1,3-beta-D-glucan synthase, has become the second available agent in the echinocandins class that is approved for use in clinical practice. This agent shares with caspofungin an identical spectrum of in vitro activity against Candida albicans, non-albicans species of Candida, and Aspergillus species, as well as several

Breakthrough Invasive Candidiasis in Patients on Micafungin [PDF]
ABSTRACT For Candida species, a bimodal wild-type MIC distribution for echinocandins exists, but resistance to echinocandins is rare. We characterized isolates from patients with invasive candidiasis (IC) breaking through ≥3 doses of micafungin therapy during the first 28 months of its use at our center ...

Micafungin: the US perspective
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2005Invasive fungal infections cause considerable morbidity and mortality in nosocomial settings and amongst immunocompromised hosts. Invasive candidiasis and aspergillosis remain the most common invasive fungal infections, with Candida spp. constituting the fourth most common bloodstream infection in the USA.

Micafungin: a therapeutic review
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2004In recent decades, the incidence of aspergillosis, candidiasis and clinically important deep mycoses has been increasing, with advances in transplantation medicine and anticancer chemotherapy. Micafungin (FK463, Fujisawa Healthcare) has been developed as a novel type of antifungal agent, which inhibits 1,3-beta-D-glucan synthase in the fungal cell wall.
