voriconazole in the treatment of patients with invasive aspergillosis.
Acute invasive fungal infections caused by aspergillus, zygomycetes and other filamentous
fungi remain life threatening diseases. Early treatment with highly effective anti-fungals
reduces mortality. This study investigates the efficacy and safety of isavuconazole in the
treatment of invasive fungal diseases, caused by Aspergillus or other filamentous fungi.
