Guest guest Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Fungal infections are often treated with a class of drugs called azoles. Infections caused by certain Candida and Aspergillus species can be especially difficult to manage medically. Aspergillosis has a high mortality rate in immunocompromised patients. In 2004, the market for systemic antifungal drugs was estimated to be US $5 billion worldwide with azole sales being a major contributor. _http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=257352_ (http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=257352) _PRESS RELEASE MethylGene Presents Preclinical Data for its Clinical Candidate MGCD290-An Antifungal Histone Deacetylase Inhib._ (h ttp://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=257352) Sharon Kramer ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
