Antifungal resistance, combinations and pipeline: oh my!
Invasive fungal infections are a strong contributor to healthcare costs, morbidity and mortality, especially amongst hospitalized patients. Historically, Candida was responsible for approximately 15% of all nosocomial bloodstream infections.

Lack of Effect of Rezafungin on QT/QTc Interval in Healthy Subjects [PDF]
AbstractRezafungin is a new echinocandin in development for treatment of candidemia and invasive candidiasis, and for prophylaxis of invasive fungal infections. Rezafungin is the first echinocandin to undergo definitive QT/QTc study. This phase 1, single‐center, randomized, double‐blind trial was conducted to assess effects of intravenous rezafungin vs
