Ibrexafungerp is the first representative of a novel class of structurally-distinct glucan synthase inhibitors, triterpenoids.
It has broad spectrum activity encompassing Candida, Aspergillus, Pneumocystis, Dimorphic fungi and mucorales, including multi-drug resistant (MDR) species and pan resistant species such as Candida auris. Ibrexafungerp combines the well-established activity of glucan synthase inhibitors with the flexibility of oral and IV formulations, offering a broad use across different settings (in-patient and out-patient).
Ibrexafungerp has the potential to be an essential therapy in the treatment of multiple serious fungal infections:
Fungicidal vs. Candida
High concentrations in tissues of interest, except CNS
~2,000 subjects exposed
Low risk of drug-drug interactions
Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP), Fast Track and Orphan Drug status for invasive candidiasis and aspergillosis

Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Ibrexafungerp in Patients with Candidiasis Caused by Candida Auris.
A Phase 2 multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Coadministration of ibrexafungerp with voriconazole in Patients with Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis.
Global Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of oral ibrexafungerp as a step-down therapy from an intravenous (IV) echinocandin in patients with invasive candidiasis (IC), including candidemia, a Candida infection in the blood.
Phase 3b, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of oral ibrexafungerp as a treatment for complicated vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) in patients who have failed treatment with fluconazole, based on mycological and clinical outcomes.
