Repurposing Agents as Anti-Infective Therapeutics to Aid in the Treatment of Candida auris Infections
These findings support the potential clinical utility of repurposing existing agents, such as Ethyl Pyruvate or EDTA, for systemic <i>C. auris</i> infections, or hypochlorous acid for <i>C. auris</i> wound infections. Yet, further studies are needed to optimize dosing parameters and evaluate in vivo efficacy and tolerability.
