Fluorinated aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted monohydrazones demonstrate excellent broad-spectrum activity against various fungal strains, including clinically relevant Candida auris strains. These compounds exhibit fungicidal activity with low hemolysis and no mammalian cell cytotoxicity, prevent biofilm formation, and do not induce resistance in C. auris over multiple passages.
Fluorinated aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted monohydrazones displayed excellent broad-spectrum activity against various fungal strains, including a panel of clinically relevantCandida aurisstrains relative to a control antifungal agent, voriconazole (VRC). These monohydrazones displayed less hemolysis of murine red blood cells than that of VRC at the same concentrations, possessed fungicidal activity in a time-kill study, and exhibited no mammalian cell cytotoxicity. In addition, these monohydrazones prevented the formation of biofilms that otherwise block antibiotic effectiveness and did not trigger the development of resistance when exposed toC. aurisAR Bank # 0390 over 15 passages.
