Safety and Efficacy of a 48-Month Efinaconazole 10% Solution Treatment/Maintenance Regimen: 24-Month Daily Use Followed by 24-Month Intermittent Use

Researchers studied a 4-year treatment plan for toenail fungal infections using efinaconazole, an antifungal solution applied daily for 2 years, then 2-3 times weekly for another 2 years. The treatment was safe and effective, with all patients who achieved a cure maintaining it through the maintenance phase, and even some non-cured patients improving further. The study included many elderly patients, showing the treatment is safe across all age groups and could help prevent infection relapse.

This study examined fungal infections in patients with multiple myeloma who were not eligible for or preparing for stem cell transplants. Researchers found that 6% of these patients developed invasive fungal infections, with yeast infections being the most common type. The risk of these infections was significantly higher in patients taking dexamethasone (a steroid) or those with low white blood cell counts and those receiving multiple cancer therapies.
