1 Is Combined Antifungal Therapy More Efficient than Single Agent Therapy? No Evidence As Yet Georg Maschmeyer Dept. of Hematology, Oncology & Palliative Care Klinikum Ernst von Bergmann Potsdam, Germany
2 Where We Stand: Current Guidelines Johnson MD & Perfect JR, Curr Fungal Infect Rep 2010;4:87-95
3 Fluconazole vs Fluconazole + D-AmB for Candidemia in Non-neutropenic Patients p = 0.08 Rex JH et al (MSG), Clin Infect Dis 2003;36:1221-8
4 Where We Stand: Reviews on Aspergillosis The currently available antifungals used in various combination approaches have not demonstrated clear improvement over monotherapy. The combination of L-AMB and echinocandins offered no advantage in terms of improving response or reducing mortality over either drug alone. Hence, this combination will only add to the cost of therapy without any improvement in outcome in patients with hematological malignancies. Steinbach WJ et al (Duke), Med Mycol 2011;49:S77-81 Mihu CN et al (MDACC), Cancer 2010;116:5290-6
5 Antifungal Combination Therapy: Considerations PRO CON Increased activity More rapid response Broader spectrum Prevention of resistance development Better tissue distribution Reduced toxicity? (Reduced dosage?) Potential antagonism Drug interactions Increased toxicity? Higher costs
6 Aspergillus - in vitro Studies Combination AmB + 5FC AmB + Rifampin AmB + azoles Echino + AmB or azole Caspo + calcineurin inhibitors or rapamycin Results no consensus: synergy (antagonism) strain, method, dose dependent no antagonism variable results azole preexposure strong antagonism (indifference) - synergy no antagonism synergy Johnson MD et al, Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2004;48: Steinbach WJ et al, Clin Infect Dis 2003;37(Suppl 3):S

23 Clinical Study of Combination Therapy of Aspergillosis? To show a 10% improvement in survival over that achieved with voriconazole alone will require 570 evaluable patients and enrollment of >800 subjects (assuming that 70% of enrollees are evaluable) Wheat LJ (editorial), J Infect Dis 2003;187:1832-3
24 Conclusions There is no indication to give combination therapy first-line to patients with invasive fungal infection, except cryptococcal meningitis Preclinical tests do not reliably predict clinical outcome Combinations of AmB and an azole should be avoided in mold infections Prospective randomized studies will show whether combination treatment for IA is beneficial or not
