Abstract

The in vivo activities of posaconazole, itraconazole, and amphotericin B in neutropenic mice with zygomycosis were compared. The in vitro MICs of posaconazole and itraconazole for the strains of Mucor spp. used in this study ranged from 0.125 to 8 microg/ml and 0.25 to 8 microg/ml, respectively. The in vitro MIC range for amphotericin B is 0.125 to 0.25 microg/ml. At twice-daily doses of >or=15 mg/kg of body weight, posaconazole prolonged the survival of the mice and reduced tissue burden.
