Candidemia Understanding

Candidemia: Overview

Candidemia is defined as the presence of Candida species in the blood. It is the most common fungal bloodstream infection in hospitalized patients. Candida albicans is the most common cause of candidemia, representing 35% to 60% of isolates. Candida parapsilosis, Candida tropicalis, Candida glabrata and Candida krusei, are the most common nonalbicans Candida species identified in cultures. Most common risk factors include critical illness and prolonged intensive care unit stay. The presence of a central venous catheter, antibiotic exposure, abdominal surgery (especially if repeated laparotomies or anastomotic leakage is present), malignancy (solid organ and hematologic), acute necrotizing pancreatitis, organ transplant recipients, and total parenteral nutrition are other major risk factors.

Symptoms

The symptoms of Candidemia include:
  • Fever, chills
  • Skin rash
  • Generalized weakness or fatigue
  • Low blood pressure
  • Muscle aches
  • Vision changes or signs of an eye infection
  • Headaches and neurological deficits
  • Abdominal pain
Diagnosis

Diagnosis of candidemia is based on direct fungal detection in blood cultures. The advantage of cultures is the ability to do susceptibility testing. Biopsy should be done in patients with localized findings and sent for culture and gram staining. The diagnosis can also be made by detecting antigens of Candida in the blood stream. New polymerase chain reaction tests are being developed and evaluated in clinical trials.

Treatment

Early empiric antifungal therapy should be strongly considered in critically ill patients with risk factors for invasive candidiasis in whom the disease is suspected, as some studies have shown reduced mortality with this strategy. The decision to start therapy should be based on clinical suspicion, risk factors, and surrogate markers of candidemia (e.g., B-d-glucan). Empiric therapy should start with an echinocandin (caspofungin, micafungin, anidulafungin) as first choice therapy. Fluconazole may be considered in certain patients who are not critically ill and in whom susceptibility to fluconazole is likely. Amphotericin B can be given to patients with intolerance or contraindications to other treatments. Transition to fluconazole is recommended for stable patients in whom cultures have resulted in sensitive Candida species, such as C. albicans.

Candidemia Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Candidemia report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Candidemia Emerging Drugs
  • Rezafungin acetate: Cidara Therapeutics
Rezafungin acetate is a drug that is a glucan synthase inhibitor. It works by blocking substance P, a small signaling molecule. Originally, this compound was owned by Seachaid Pharmaceuticals. Rezafungin acetate is now licensed by Mundipharma International and under the development of Cidara Therapeutics.
  • Fosmanogepix: Amplyx Pharmaceuticals
Fosmanogepix has a novel mechanism of action that inhibits the highly conserved fungal enzyme Gwt1, which is essential for trafficking and anchoring mannoprotein to the outer cell wall in fungi. Fosmanogepix is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of both intravenous (IV) and oral formulations for the treatment of patients with fungal infections caused by aspergillosis and candidemia, including candidemia caused by C. auris.
