[Pharmacological profile of isavuconazole].
Revista Iberoamericana de Micología 2018 October
Isavuconazole is a new azole, structurally related to fluconazole and voriconazole, that presents a very high oral absorption with no first-pass effect which is not interfered by the presence of food, gastric pH modifications, or mucositis. Its distribution volume is very high, probably also to cerebrospinal fluid, in spite of the fact that it circulates highly bound to plasma proteins. It is extensively metabolized through the CYP3A4 isoenzyme. Due to this reason, it is recommended to avoid co-administration with strong CYP3A4 inducers. In addition, isavuconazole may inhibit CYP3A4. Moreover, it may induce CYP2B6 and P-glycoprotein. Interestingly, this inhibitory activity seems to be lower compared to other azoles. Therefore, the management of any interaction with other medicines is easier, which is probably the most important advantage of this antifungal.
