Abstract

Background Candida species are a major cause of invasive and mucocutaneouls infections. There are limited oral treatment options available for patients with Candida infections who are unresponsive to or who are intolerant of currently available antifungals. Oral ibrexafungerp is an investigational broad-spectrum glucan synthase inhibitor antifungal with activity against Candida and Aspergillus species, including azole- and echinocandin-resistant strains. A Phase 3 open-label, single-arm study of ibrexafungerp (FURI; NCT03059992) is ongoing for the treatment of patients intolerant of or with fungal disease refractory to standard antifungal therapy. We present an analysis of patient outcomes from the FURI study by fungal disease type. Table 1: FURI Outcomes by Fungal Disease MethodsFURI patients were eligible for enrollment if they have proven or probable, severe mucocutaneous candidiasis, invasive candidiasis or invasive aspergillosis,other fungal diseases and evidence of failure to, intolerance to, or toxicity related to a currently approved standard-of-care antifungal treatment or can not receive approved oral antifungal options (e.g., susceptibility of the organism) and a continued IV antifungal therapy is clinically undesirable or unfeasible. ResultsAn independent Data Review Committee (DRC) provided an assessment of treatment response for 74 patients enrolled in the FURI study from 22 centers in US, UK and EU treated with ibrexafungerp for mucocutaneous or invasive fungal infections from 2016- 2020. A total of 39 (52.7%) patients had invasive candidiasis, 32 (43.2%) had mucocutaneous candidiasis and 3 (4.5%) patients had invasive aspergillosis. The percent of patients who were determined to have a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), clinical improvement (CI) was 63.5%, stable disease (SD) was 23.0%, patients with progression of disease 6.8% and 4 patients were indeterminate. Additionally, there was 1 death in the FURI study that was not related to fungal disease. Table 1 shows outcomes by fungal disease type as determined by the DRC. ConclusionAnalysis of 74 patients from the FURI study indicates that oral ibrexafungerp provides a favorable therapeutic response in patients with challenging fungal disease and limited treatment options.
