“With Valley fever cases climbing in California, physicians have struggled to treat the increasing number of patients grappling with the deadliest version of the disease. When Valley fever, or coccidioidomycosis, spreads from the lungs, it can cause infected joints, scarred lungs and even deadly meningitis. Now, researchers appear to have found a major breakthrough studying an experimental drug that helped the sickest patients, who otherwise had run out of treatment options. The study’s results, published Monday in the Annals of Internal Medicine, looked at whether an experimental antifungal medication called olorofim could help relieve symptoms of people with disseminated Valley fever, meaning their disease has spread beyond their lungs. The team found a significant number, over 70%, of patients with the stubborn and potentially deadly form of disease were helped after taking the new drug.” (07/21/26)
