Current and emerging azole antifungal agents
Open accessAbstract
Major developments in research into the azole class of antifungal agents during the 1990s have provided expanded options for the treatment of many opportunistic and endemic fungal infections. Fluconazole and itraconazole have proved to be safer than both amphotericin B and ketoconazole. Despite these advances, serious fungal infections remain difficult to treat, and resistance to the available drugs is emerging. This review describes present and future uses of the currently available azole antifungal agents in the treatment of systemic and superficial fungal infections and provides a brief overview of the current status of in vitro susceptibility testing and the growing problem of clinical resistance to the azoles. Use of the currently available azoles in combination with other antifungal agents with different mechanisms of action is likely to provide enhanced efficacy. Detailed information on some of the second-generation triazoles being developed to provide extended coverage of opportunistic, endemic, and emerging fungal pathogens, as well as those in which resistance to older agents is becoming problematic, is provided.

Azoles deplete the Candida cell membrane of ergosterol and cause accumulation of toxic 14α-methylated sterols, decreasing membrane fluidity and in most cases inhibiting cell growth.
“As a result of the action of azoles, the Candida cell membrane is depleted of ergosterol and accumulates other toxic 14α-methylated sterols. Subsequently, this causes the decrease in membrane fluidity and, in most of the cases, inhibits cell growth [20].”

The in vitro anti-Candida activity of posaconazole and ravuconazole appears to be good.
“The in vitro anti-Candida activity of the other azoles under active development (posaconazole and ravuconazole) also appears to be good [50].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
