Developing a rationally designed, more selective azole antifungal agent that specifically targets the fungal CYP51 over the host CYP51 is a severe unmet need considering a massive shortfall in novel antifungal agents. In this context, oteseconazole (VT-1161) represents a very exciting new development targeting serious fungal infections caused by a wide variety of fungal pathogens including multidrug-resistant Candida responsible for recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis. This monograph details the various in vitro and in vivo properties exhibited by oteseconazole as well as its current status in clinical trials.
