We investigated the in vitro activity of sequential itraconazole and caspofungin against 10 isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus. Previous exposure of A. fumigatus to itraconazole resulted in dose-dependent enhanced effects of caspofungin and vice versa. Our finding suggests a preferential role for azole-caspofungin sequential combinations and merits further in vivo investigation.
