Comparative in vitro activity of LY121019 and amphotericin B against clinical isolates of Candida species.

LY121019 and amphotericin B were equally active in vitro against most clinical isolates of Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis. Higher concentrations of LY121019 were required for inhibition of Candida glabrata. Other Candida species were inhibited by amphotericin B but not by LY121019.
