What is Isavuconazonium Sulfate

Isavuconazonium Sulfate is the sulfate ester form of isavuconazonium, a prodrug of the triazole antifungal agent isavuconazole, with broad-spectrum antifungal activity. Upon administration, isavuconazonium sulfate is hydrolyzed by plasma esterases to yield the active moiety isavuconazole. Isavuconazole binds to and inhibits the fungal cytochrome P450 family enzyme lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase (CYP51), which catalyzes the demethylation of lanosterol to yield ergosterol, an important component of the fungal cell membrane. Inhibition of CYP51 leads to a decrease in fungal ergosterol production and disrupts synthesis of the fungal cell membrane, which decreases membrane integrity, increases cell membrane permeability and promotes the loss of essential intracellular elements. This results in fungal cell lysis and death.

Isavuconazonium sulfate is an azaheterocycle sulfate salt that is a prodrug for isavuconazole, an antifungal agent used for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis and invasive mucormycosis. It has a role as a prodrug, an ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitor, an EC 1.14.13.70 (sterol 14alpha-demethylase) inhibitor and an orphan drug. It is an azaheterocycle sulfate salt, a triazole antifungal drug and a conazole antifungal drug. It contains an isavuconazonium.
