Rezafungin (Rezzayo) vs Vancomycin

An educational, source-based comparison of Rezafungin (Rezzayo) and Vancomycin — how each peptide works, what it's researched for, and what to know before going deeper.

Echinocandin · Antifungal
Rezafungin (Rezzayo)

Once-weekly echinocandin for candidemia and invasive candidiasis.

Mechanism

Next-generation echinocandin structurally related to anidulafungin with enhanced stability, inhibiting β-(1,3)-D-glucan synthase; long half-life permits once-weekly IV dosing.

Research areas
  • Candidemia
  • Invasive candidiasis
Considerations
  • FDA-approved (2023).
  • Infusion reactions and photosensitivity reported.

Glycopeptide · Infectious Disease
Vancomycin

Glycopeptide antibiotic for serious Gram-positive infections including MRSA.

Mechanism

Tricyclic glycopeptide that binds the D-Ala-D-Ala terminus of peptidoglycan precursors, blocking cell wall cross-linking in Gram-positive bacteria.

Research areas
  • MRSA infections
  • C. difficile colitis (oral)
  • Enterococcal infections
Considerations
  • FDA-approved.
  • Nephrotoxicity, infusion reactions ('red man syndrome').
