Echinocandins are frontline antifungal agents in the management of invasive infections due to multidrug resistant Candida auris. The study aimed to evaluate echinocandin resistance in C. auris isolates of multicentric origin, identify the resistance mechanism, and analyze the pharmacodynamic response to caspofungin in a neutropenic mouse model of infection. A total of 199 C. auris isolates originating from 30...
