Treatment pathways, switches, and inappropriate treatment during invasive pulmonary aspergillosis: real-world experiences from a global research network study.

Abstract

Despite advancements in diagnosing and treating invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), there is limited knowledge of real-world treatment pathways and medication switches. We queried the TrinetX global research network database and identified 5,410 patients diagnosed with IPA. The most common initial treatments were voriconazole (49%), fluconazole (11%), and posaconazole (7%). Most patients remained on voriconazole (80%) or isavuconazole (78%) throughout the treatment duration. Switches were more frequent for those initially treated with fluconazole, echinocandins, or posaconazole.
