Background
Ivosidenib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4; however, it induces CYP450 isozymes, including CYP3A4 and CYP2C9, whereas it inhibits drug transporters, including P‐glycoprotein. Patients with acute myeloid leukemia are at risk of invasive fungal infections, and therefore posaconazole and voriconazole are commonly used in this population. Voriconazole is a substrate of CYP2C9, CYP2C19,...
Background
Posaconazole (PCZ) is widely used for prophylaxis or treatment of invasive fungal infections (IFIs) in leukaemia patients. However, issues with PCZ tolerability can result in treatment interruption. Isavuconazole (ISA) has a similar broad spectrum of activity to PCZ; however, real‐world data regarding the tolerability of ISA after PCZ toxicity are lacking.
Objectives
To describe the...
Invasive fungal infections remain major causes of infection-related mortality in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients. Mixed infections and multiple organ involvement have been reported in these patients. Here, we report a case of mixed Aspergillus and Mucorales infection involving the lungs, brain, spleen and bone in a HSCT patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia, who finally...
