9 INTRODUCTION. When using a prophylactic, empiric, or preemptive therapeutic approach, clinicians must take into account the local epidemiology, spectrum of activity, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters, and safety profile of different antifungal agents, together with unique host-related factors that may affect antifungal efficacy or safety. Therapeutic drug monitoring provides a way to optimize the use of antifungal agents. Therapeutic drug monitoring is increasingly recognized as important or necessary when employing lipophilic triazoles (itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole) or flucytosine. Objetives of TDM: To optimize efficacy To avoid infradosification To ensure no toxicity Kontoyiannis DP. Am J Med Jan;125(1 Suppl):S25-38.

15 5-fluorocytosine Goodwin ML et al. JAC 2008 Flucytosine is one of the oldest antifungal medications. The clinical use of flucytosine is limited due to its toxicities (gastrointestinal, haematological and neurological),rapid development of resistance (when used as monotherapy)and lack of parenteral formulations. It is generally utilized in combination with other agents for the treatment of select IFIs,notably cryptococcal meningitis, severe or refractory candidiasis or aspergillosis.

16 5-fluorocytosine and ICU A retrospective, observational study of 53 intensive care unit patients reported that patients with flucytosine concentrations exceeding 100 mg/l exhibited significantly: higher incidence of thrombocytopenia (P< 0.05) and elevated liver enzymes (P <0.05) when compared with thetotal population Vermes A, van Der SH, Guchelaar HJ. Flucytosine: correlation between toxicity pharmacokinetic parameters. Chemotherapy 2000;46:

17 5-fluorocytosine and TDM Final recomendations Goodwin ML et al. JAC 2008 Based on available data, a 2 h post-dose concentration of flucytosine should be obtained after 3 5 doses have been administered. A reasonable goal is to maintain such concentrations >25 mg/l while avoiding concentrations exceeding 100 mg/l. In all instances, adjustments of flucytosine dosing in patients with renal insufficiency, in addition to close monitoring of bothrenal function and blood counts, would be advised.

18 Association of Fluconazole AUC/MIC and Dose/MIC Ratios with Mortality in Non-neutropenic Patients with Candidemia Although the weightnormalized dose/mic ratio (after 24 h) was significantly higher for the survivors [ (mean+sd)] as compared with the nonsurvivors ( ) (P. 0.03), the AUC/MIC ratio only showed a trend towards survival Survivors p = 0.03 Non Survivors Dose/MIC Pai M et al.
