Summary

The treatment options majorly consist of medical management with at least 6-month long treatment with antifungal drugs - most significantly the azole groups. Itraconazole is the preferred azole for the treatment of CPA. The duration of treatment with oral itraconazole remains uncertain. In a previous study the use of oral itraconazole for 6-months a favorable overall response was seen in 76% of the subjects. Moreover, about 30%-50% of the subjects have disease relapse that requires prolonged therapy. It is likely that a longer duration of itraconazole would have a higher response rate and thus, lower risk of relapse after discontinuation of therapy. In this randomized controlled trial, we compare the clinical outcomes of six months versus twelve months of itraconazole therapy in treatment naïve subjects with chronic pulmonary aspergillosis
