The purpose of this pivotal study is to determine if intravenous Rezafungin is efficacious and safe in the prevention of invasive fungal diseases when compared to the standard antimicrobial regimen.
A Phase 3, multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, efficacy and safety study of Rezafungin for injection versus the standard antimicrobial regimen for the prevention of invasive fungal diseases in subjects undergoing allogeneic blood and marrow transplantation.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1: Rezafungin for Injection | Experimental | Subjects in Rezafungin treatment group will receive a 400 mg loading dose in Week 1, followed by 200 mg once weekly, for a total of 13 weeks. Subjects will receive oral placebo for standard antimicrobial regimen (SAR) azole prophylaxis and oral placebo for SAR anti-Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) prophylaxis in accordance with the respective SAR dosing regimens for each. For subjects who are switched to a SAR IV regimen, oral placebo for SAR azole prophylaxis will be changed to IV placebo. There is no IV option for SAR anti-PCP prophylaxis. |
|
| Group 2: Oral Antifungal | Active Comparator | Subjects randomized to the SAR will receive either fluconazole or posaconazole as the first-line SAR as per site's standard practice. Fluconazole will be administered orally at once daily doses of 400 mg for 13 weeks. Posaconazole will be administered orally as 300 mg twice daily on the first day and 300 mg once daily thereafter for 13 weeks. Azole-based antifungal therapy (fluconazole or posaconazole) can be switched from oral therapy to IV therapy if there is oral intolerance, at the discretion of the Investigator. Subjects who started on fluconazole SAR may be switched to posaconazole at the discretion of the Investigator if they develop acute clinically significant GVHD; In addition, subjects in the SAR group will receive anti PCP prophylaxis with oral TMP/SMX (80 mg TMP/ 400 mg SMX) once daily. There is no IV option for SAR anti-PCP prophylaxis. |

Male subjects must be vasectomized, abstain from sexual intercourse, or agree to use barrier contraception (condom with spermicide), and agree not to donate sperm while participating in the study and for 120 days from the last IV dose of study drug.
