US drugmakers Melinta Therapeutics and Cidara Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CDTX) recently released extensive data from two global clinical trials on their candidemia and invasive candidiasis drug Rezzayo (rezafungin acetate).

The findings affirm the safety and efficacy of Rezzayo, a novel echinocandin antifungal administered through weekly intravenous (IV) infusion. This reinforces its market position, emphasizing its efficacy and safety in addressing fungal infections, says pharma analytics company GlobalData.

Rezzayo became the first drug to be approved for the treatment of candidemia and invasive candidiasis in over 10 years following the FDA approval earlier this year.
