Pyrvinium Pamoate Synergizes with Azoles in vitro and in vivo to Exert Antifungal Efficacy Against Candida auris and Other Candida Species
2025
Overview
Treating infections caused by azole-resistant
. poses a significant challenge. Previous research has indicated that pyrvinium pamoate (PP) has the potential to augment the antifungal efficacy of azole antifungals against filamentous fungi. The objective of this study was to investigate the antifungal properties of PP, both independently and in conjunction with azoles, against
and other
A total of 21 clinical
. strains and five azoles were assessed. The antifungal efficacy of PP, either alone or in combination with azoles, was tested according to the reference method.
larvae were employed to evaluate the antifungal efficacy of PP and/or azoles in the treatment of
infections in vivo.
When used to treat these different fungal isolates in vitro, the single-agent efficacy of PP was relatively poor, with minimum inhibitory concentration values ranging from 2 μg/mL - >32 μg/mL. However, PP and azoles exhibited synergistic activity against the majority of analyzed
and
isolates. To extend these results in vivo,
was infected with
strain AR385 and both survival and fungal burden were assessed for treated larvae. The inclusion of PP in combination with itraconazole, voriconazole, or posaconazole resulted in varying degrees of improvement in the survival rates of these larvae.
Combining PP with azoles represents a promising approach to effectively disrupting the growth of azole-resistant
and other
. such that it may be a promising anti-
therapeutic option.
