Echinocandins remain the preferred treatment for invasive Candida infections. While mutations in FKS genes can cause reduced echinocandin susceptibility, overall rates of resistance remain low outside of certain high-risk settings. Susceptibility testing and detection of FKS mutations have limited roles in routine clinical practice due to low prevalence, testing uncertainties, and unclear relationships with treatment outcomes. These tools may be most useful for patients with prior echinocandin exposure who develop new infections or do not respond to treatment.
