In vitro susceptibilities of invasive isolates of Candida species:: Rapid increase in rates of fluconazole susceptible-dose dependent Candida glabrata isolates

Voriconazole, posaconazole, caspofungin, micafungin, and anidulafungin demonstrated potent in vitro activities against 286 invasive Candida isolates. Analysis of the fluconazole susceptibilities of 204 bloodstream Candida glabrata isolates revealed a rapid shift from susceptible (64% in 1999 to 2001 to 19% in 2007) to susceptible-dose dependent (27% in 1999 to 2001 and 75% in 2007).
