CRESEMBA (isavuconazonium sulfate) is an oral azole antifungal approved in 2015 for treatment of invasive aspergillosis and invasive mucormycosis in immunocompromised patients. It is a prodrug that converts to isavuconazole, targeting severe fungal infections in critically ill populations. The drug addresses an important unmet need in hospital settings where IV antifungals have dominated.
