New antifungal agents are needed to overcome limitations of available ones such as poor pharmacokinetic traits, toxicity, drug-drug interactions, limited clinical efficacy, and emerging antifungal resistance. New antifungal drugs belong to well-known families (azoles, polyenes, or beta-d-glucan synthase inhibitors) or to drug families showing completely new mechanisms of action. Some drugs have a head start in terms of potential to reach the clinical setting and are here reviewed.
需要新的抗真菌药物来克服现有药物的局限性,如药代动力学特征差、毒性、药物相互作用、临床疗效有限和抗真菌耐药性的出现。新型抗真菌药物属于已知的药物家族(唑类、多烯类或β-D-葡聚糖合成酶抑制剂)或具有全新作用机制的药物家族。一些药物在进入临床应用方面具有先发优势,本文对此进行了综述。
