SF001 for IV infusion comprises a micellar solution of Sfu-AM2-19A, a novel, next-generation polyene.  Nonclinical studies of SF001 have demonstrated its potent in vitro fungicidal activity and in vivo efficacy.  The investigational new drug (IND) application was filed in May 2023, and clinical studies are underway.

An oral formulation is currently in the feasibility phase.

SF001 received Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) for invasive aspergillosis and Fast Track designations from the FDA in 2023.
