Abstract
In vitro combinations of isavuconazole with echinocandins were evaluated against 30 Aspergillus strains with a two-dimensional checkerboard microdilution method and an agar-based diffusion method. With the checkerboard method, the three combinations showed indifferent interactions for all strains. With the agar-based method, indifferent interactions were found for all strains for isavuconazole-micafungin and isavuconazole-anidulafungin. For the isavuconazole-caspofungin combination, indifference was found in 24/30 strains, synergism in 4/30 strains, and antagonism in 2/30 strains.Entities:
