Hypersensitivity to isavuconazonium sulfate (eg, isavuconazole) or any component of the formulation; concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (eg, ketoconazole, high-dose ritonavir [400 mg every 12 hours]); concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inducers (eg, rifampin, carbamazepine, St. John’s wort, long-acting barbiturates); familial short QT syndrome.
Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
Canadian labeling: Additional contraindications (not in US labeling): Concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4/5 inducers (eg, efavirenz, etravirine).
Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Hepatic effects: Severe reactions (hepatic failure [including fatalities], hepatitis, and cholestasis) have been reported in patients with serious underlying medical conditions (eg, hematologic malignancy). Other reactions (elevations in AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin) have also been reported; these elevations are generally reversible and do not require discontinuation of therapy. Monitor liver function tests at baseline and periodically during therapy. If abnormal liver function tests develop, monitor closely for development of severe hepatic reactions. Discontinue therapy if clinical signs and symptoms of liver disease develop.
• Hypersensitivity: Anaphylactic reactions, with fatal outcome, have been reported with isavuconazonium sulfate. Discontinue isavuconazonium sulfate if a patient experiences an anaphylactic reaction. Serious hypersensitivity (eg, anaphylaxis) and severe skin reactions (eg, Stevens-Johnson syndrome) have been reported with other azole antifungal agents. Discontinue if a severe skin reaction occurs. There is no information regarding cross-sensitivity between isavuconazonium sulfate and other azoles. Use with caution in patients with hypersensitivity reactions to other azoles.
Disease-related concerns:
• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution and monitor for adverse effects in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C).
Dosage form specific issues:
• Drug particulates: Following dilution for IV infusion, may form precipitate from the insoluble isavuconazole. Use an infusion set with an in-line filter (pore size 0.2 to 1.2 micron) for IV administration.
• Infusion-related reactions: Infusion reactions (eg, hypotension, dizziness, chills, dyspnea, paresthesia and hypoesthesia) have been reported during IV administration. Discontinue the infusion if these reactions occur.
• Propylene glycol: Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; large amounts are potentially toxic and have been associated with hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Zar 2007).
Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; in neonates, large amounts of propylene glycol delivered orally, intravenously (eg, >3,000 mg/day), or topically have been associated with potentially fatal toxicities which can include metabolic acidosis, seizures, renal failure, and CNS depression; toxicities have also been reported in children and adults including hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Shehab 2009).

Capsule, Oral, as sulfate:
Cresemba: 186 mg (isavuconazole 100 mg) [contains disodium edta]
Solution Reconstituted, Intravenous, as sulfate:
Cresemba: 372 mg (isavuconazole 200 mg) (1 ea)
IV: Infuse over a minimum of 1 hour; must be administered via an infusion set with an in-line filter (pore size 0.2 to 1.2 micron). Flush line with NS or D5W before and after infusion. Do not administer as an IV bolus injection. Do not mix or infuse with other medications.
NG tube: Administer within 1 hour of reconstitution. Once dose administered, flush nasogastric tube with three 5 mL rinses of water. Do not administer intact capsules through an NG tube.
Oral: Administer with or without food. The manufacturer recommends to swallow capsules whole; do not chew, crush, dissolve, or open. Administration of isavuconazonium sulfate by opening capsules and mixing contents with saline or tube feed formulations for administration via enteral feeding tubes has resulted in comparable isavuconazole concentrations to IV administration and intact capsule formulations. If capsules are opened, consider assessing serum concentrations to ensure absorption (Ref).
IV: Infuse over a minimum of 1 hour; must be administered via an infusion set with an in-line filter (pore size 0.2 to 1.2 micron). Flush line with NS or D5W before and after infusion. Do not administer as an IV bolus injection. Do not mix or infuse with other medications.
Oral: Administer with or without food. The manufacturer recommends swallowing capsules whole and states not to chew, crush, dissolve, or open capsules, and recommends using the parenteral product enterally for patients who cannot swallow capsules. However, oral administration of isavuconazonium sulfate by opening capsules and mixing contents with an acidic beverage or soft food (eg, yogurt) has resulted in comparable isavuconazole concentrations to IV administration and administration of intact capsule formulations. If capsules are opened, consider assessing serum concentrations to ensure absorption (Ref).
Feeding tube administration:
Using parenteral formulation: Administer via nasogastric (NG) tube using an appropriate syringe within 1 hour of reconstitution. Once dose administered, flush NG tube with three 5 mL rinses of water.
Using capsules: Isavuconazonium sulfate administration via enteral feeding tubes (eg, gastrostomy tube, gastrojejunostomy [GJ] tube) has been described; open capsules and mix contents with water, saline, or tube feed formulations (eg, 372 mg isavuconazonium sulfate in 10 mL saline). In some cases, isavuconazole concentrations were found to be comparable to those achieved with IV administration; however, in one pharmacokinetic study, opening capsules resulted in lower concentrations compared to IV administration. The manufacturer recommends against using capsules for feeding tube administration; parenteral formulation is preferred. If capsules opened and administered via enteral tube, assess serum concentrations to ensure absorption (Ref).
Aspergillosis: Treatment of invasive aspergillosis in adults and pediatric patients ≥1 year of age (injection) or adults and pediatric patients ≥6 years of age and ≥16 kg (capsule).
Mucormycosis: Treatment of invasive mucormycosis in adults and pediatric patients ≥1 year of age (injection) or adults and pediatric patients ≥6 years of age and ≥16 kg (capsule).

Evaluate pregnancy status prior to use; patients who could become pregnant should use effective contraception during therapy and for 28 days after the last isavuconazonium sulfate dose.
Based on data from animal reproduction studies, in utero exposure to isavuconazonium sulfate may cause fetal harm.
It is not known if isavuconazonium sulfate is present breast milk.
The manufacturer recommends breastfeeding be discontinued during maternal isavuconazonium sulfate therapy.
Hypersensitivity reactions with initial doses, LFTs (eg AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin) at baseline and periodically during therapy. Infusion-related reactions (eg hypotension, dyspnea, chills, dizziness, paresthesias, hypoesthesia) during IV infusion.
Routine therapeutic drug monitoring is not recommended; consider assessing serum drug concentrations if there is concern for toxicity, therapeutic failure, or possibility of impaired drug absorption (Adamsick 2019; Andes 2018; McCreary 2020; MSG-ERC [Johnson 2020]; Schmitt-Hoffman 2009).
Optimal drug concentrations have not been established; however, most adult patients achieve levels >1 mg/L with standard dosing regimens; an upper limit associated with toxicity has not been determined (Andes 2018; Desai 2017).
Isavuconazonium sulfate is a prodrug that is rapidly hydrolyzed in the blood to active isavuconazole. Isavuconazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of the fungal cell membrane, through the inhibition of cytochrome P-450 dependent enzyme lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol. An accumulation of methylated sterol precursors and a depletion of ergosterol within the fungal cell membrane weakens the membrane structure and function.
Distribution: Vss: Isavuconazole: IV: ~450 L.
Protein binding: Isavuconazole: >99% (primarily to albumin).
Metabolism: Isavuconazonium sulfate (prodrug) is rapidly hydrolyzed in the blood by esterases to active isavuconazole and an inactive cleavage product. Isavuconazole is metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP 3A5, and UGT.
Bioavailability: Oral: Isavuconazole: 98%.
Half-life elimination: IV: Isavuconazole: 130 hours.
Time to peak: Isavuconazole:
IV: Children and Adolescents: Median range: 1.07 to 1.08 hours (range: 1.02 to 1.35 hours) (Arrieta 2021).
Oral:
Children ≥6 years and Adolescents: Median range: 3.98 to 4 hours (range: 1.98 to 8.03 hours) (Arrieta 2021).
Adults: 2 to 3 hours.
Excretion: Urine (<1% as unchanged isavuconazole); feces (33% as unchanged isavuconazole) (Townsend 2018).
Hepatic function impairment: Patients with mild and moderate hepatic impairment had 40% and 48% lower isavuconazole Cl values, respectively, compared with healthy subjects, resulting in 64% and 84% increased drug exposure, respectively. In addition, patients with moderate hepatic impairment had 30% lower Cmax, compared with healthy subjects.
