The relative efficacies of cilofungin, amphotericin B and fluconazole were compared in the treatment of systemic Candida albicans infection in neutropenic mice. Thirty-one day survival rates were lowest for cilofungin (14.6%), intermediate for amphotericin B (37.6%) and highest for fluconazole (50.5%). Residual tissue infection in surviving animals was observed with all agents, but was heaviest with fluconazole, especially in the kidneys.
