Amcipatricin
Amcipatricin Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Amcipatricin has been used in trials studying the treatment of Cryptococcosis or Aspergillosis Infections. Amcipatricin (as amcipatricin diascorbate; SPK-843) is a water-soluble partricin derivative patented by SPA Societa Prodotti Antibiotici S.p.A. and developed by Aparts and Kaken for the potential treatment of systemic fungal infections. In preclinical models, SPK-843 shows in vitro inhibitory activity comparable to or better than that of Amphotericin B against Candida spp., Cryptococcus neoformans, and Aspergillus spp. SPK-843 exhibits dose-dependent efficacy on murine pulmonary aspergillosis models. SPK-843 doses of higher than 1.0 mg/kg of body weight exhibit no renal toxicities and a tendency toward better survival prolongation than the estimated maximum tolerated doses of amphotericin B (Fungizone) and liposomal amphotericin B.
