pharmacodynamic evaluation of the novel nystatin derivative BSG005 in the invasive candidiasis and invasive pulmonary aspergillosis mouse models.

Nystatin, a polyene, is one of the oldest antifungal drugs with wide potency. BSG005 is a novel, chemically modified, nystatin-like molecule in development for systemic therapy. We evaluated the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationships and target exposures using invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) and invasive candidiasis (IC) infection models for BSG005 against common fungal pathogens including , , , and .

Sociodemographic Characteristics, Indicators of Quality, and Hospital Visits in Patients With COPD During COVID-19.

Background: Evidence on quality of care and sociodemographics in patients with COPD needing care during the COVID-19 pandemic is scarce.
