Nuevos antifúngicos y aspergilosis crónicas.
Epidemiología, resistencia y actividad de nuevos antifúngicos
El conocimiento de la epidemiología y la tasa de resistencia a los antifúngicos es esencial para un manejo adecuado de los pacientes y una estrategia de detección y diagnostico apropiada. La resistencia a los antimicrobianos es hoy una de las mayores amenazas para la salud mundial siendo el desarrollo y comercialización de nuevos compuestos una de las prioridades del sector de la salud. Se han realizado en colaboración con centros del Sistema Nacional de Salud varios estudios poblacionales, con el fin de conocer la epidemiología de los hongos filamentosos en España y la tasa de resistencia a los antifúngicos. Se ha encontrado que más de un 10% de las infecciones por hongos filamentosos están producidas por especies crípticas que suelen ser más resistentes a los antifúngicos. En los últimos años han aparecido varios compuestos con capacidad antifúngica que están en diferentes fases de desarrollo, en nuestro grupo se ensayan estos nuevos compuestos frente a los principales géneros de especies patógenas, incluyendo las especies crípticas multiresistentes.
Aspergilosis Pulmonar Crónica y Aspergilosis Broncopulmonar alérgica
Estas enfermedades ocurren generalmente en personas inmunocompetentes. La incidencia de estas enfermedades es prácticamente desconocida. La ausencia de un diagnóstico apropiado y del tratamiento óptimo complica el manejo de estos pacientes. Varios estudios han documentado la presencia de cepas multiresistentes en estos pacientes, debido a tratamiento prolongados. En esta línea se está trabajando en mejorar el algoritmo diagnóstico de estas enfermedades, así como analizar la epidemiología de las especies aisladas en estas infecciones y la influencia de cambios en el micobioma pulmonar y ambiental.
Enfermedades fúngicas y Salud global
Muchos países de renta media y baja se encuentran en zonas de alta incidencia de hongos, sin embargo, tienen menos herramientas y capacidad diagnóstica para manejarlas. Con el fin de conocer la incidencia de las infecciones oportunistas por hongos y disminuir la muerte asociada a las mismas en pacientes que viven con VIH en Guatemala y en colaboración con el Fondo de acción Global para las infecciones fúngicas (GAFFI), se ha desarrollado una red de unidades de atención integral al sida e implementado un laboratorio central de diagnóstico, que hace de referencia para el diagnóstico en varias infecciones oportunistas. Se ha hecho un estudio de cohortes incluyendo a más de 2500 pacientes HIV+ con un seguimiento de un año. Se han tamizado las principales infecciones fúngicas en este grupo de pacientes permitiendo el acceso al diagnóstico y al tratamiento de las mismas en la mayor parte del país y consiguiendo una disminución de mortalidad en un año del 7%.
