Ibrexafungerp
Ibrexafungerp, also known as SCY-078 or MK-3118, is a novel enfumafungin derivative oral triterpene antifungal approved for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), also known as a vaginal yeast infection. It was developed out of a need to treat fungal infections that may have become resistant to echinocandins or azole antifungals. Ibrexafungerp is orally bioavailable compared to the echinocandins [caspofungin], [micafungin], and [anidulafungin]; which can only be administered parenterally. Similar to echinocandins, ibrexafungerp targets the fungal β-1,3-glucan synthase, which is not present in humans, limiting the chance of renal or hepatic toxicity.  Ibrexafungerp was granted FDA approval on 1 June 2021.
