Article Synopsis
- Recent trials have influenced guidelines for cryptococcal meningitis treatment, but the 2010 IDSA guidelines have not been updated to reflect these changes, particularly from the 2022 AMBITION-cm trial which suggests a new regimen might be effective.
- A survey conducted in June 2023 revealed that only 14% of responding physicians had used the AMBITION-cm treatment, and around 10% preferred it in hypothetical scenarios due to concerns over its applicability and lack of endorsement in existing guidelines.
- The findings indicate that while some physicians are using the new regimen, most are not, highlighting a need for further research on its effectiveness in diverse patient populations.
