1. WHAT CANCIDAS IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
CANCIDAS is an antifungal medicine that interferes with the production
of a component (glucan
polysaccharide) of the fungal cell wall that is necessary if the
fungus is to continue living and growing.
Fungal cells exposed to CANCIDAS have incomplete or defective cell
walls, making them fragile and
unable to grow.
CANCIDAS may have been prescribed to treat a serious fungal infection
called invasive candidiasis.
The infection is caused by fungal (yeast) cells called
_Candida_
. These yeast cells are normally found in
the digestive tract, and do not cause an infection unless they enter
the bloodstream (in which case the
infection is referred to as candidaemia) or other tissues or organs,
such as the lining of the abdomen
(peritonitis), the heart, the kidneys, the liver, bones, muscles,
joints, spleen, or eyes. Persons at high
risk for invasive candidiasis include surgical patients and those
whose immune systems are deficient.
Fever and chills that do not respond to antibacterial therapy are the
most common symptoms of this
type of infection.
Alternatively, your doctor may have prescribed CANCIDAS to treat a
fungal infection in y

CANCIDAS ®
(caspofungin acetate) FOR INJECTION
I. THERAPEUTIC CLASS
CANCIDAS ® is a sterile, lyophilized product for intravenous infusion that contains a semi -
synthetic lipopeptide (echinocan din) compound synthesized from a fermentation product of
Glarea lozoyensis. CANCIDAS is the first of a new class of antifungal drugs (echinocandins)
that inhibit the synthesis of β (1,3) -D-glucan, an integral component of the fungal cell wall.
CANCIDAS (caspofungin acetate) is 1 -[(4 R,5S)-5-[(2 -aminoethyl)amino] -N2-(10,12 -dimethyl -
1-oxotetradecyl) -4-hydroxy -L-ornithine] -5-[(3 R)-3-hydroxy -L-ornithine]pn eumocandin B 0
diacetate (salt). In addition to the active ingredient caspofungin acetate, CANCIDAS contains
the following inactive ingredients: sucrose, mannitol, acetic acid, and sodium hydroxide.
Caspofungin acetate is a hygroscopic, white to off -white p owder. It is freely soluble in water
and methanol, and slightly soluble in ethanol. The pH of a saturated aqueous solution of
caspofungin acetate is approximately 6.6. The empirical formula is C 52H88N10O15• 2C 2H4O2
and the formula weight is 1213.42.
