Article Synopsis
- A study examined antigen testing for histoplasmosis and blastomycosis in 39 hospitalized patients.
- It was found that patients with worse health outcomes had significantly longer turnaround times for receiving positive test results.
- This suggests that quicker testing could potentially improve patient outcomes in these fungal infections.
Amphotericin B (AmB) has broad fungicidal activity against many fungi, but the high incidence of adverse events, particularly nephrotoxicity, and the need for intravenous administration restrict its use for many patients. MAT2203, an investigational oral AmB formulation available under a compassionate use program, uses a lipid nanocrystal bilayer structure to deliver AmB with lower toxicity. We present a synopsis of clinical characteristics, treatment course, and outcomes for 5 patients who were treated with MAT2203.
