Patients who are unconscious.
Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Known history of allergy, hypersensitivity, or any serious reaction to any component of the study drug (olorofim or the olorofim-placebo tablets).
Patients with or planned placement of indwelling CNS devices (e.g., reservoirs, shunts, ventriculostomies, or external drainage tubes).
Patients receiving intrathecal (IT) amphotericin B at the time of study enrollment.
Patients with coccidioidomycosis limited to fibro-cavitary pulmonary disease.
All bothersome DCM-related symptoms at study entry are due to irreversible damage (e.g., neurologic deficits due to stroke).
Patients with a second fungal infection requiring systemic antifungal treatment or prophylaxis, other than cutaneous fungal infections treated topically and Pneumocystis jirovecii infections.
Patients with microbiological findings (e.g., bacteriological, virological) or other potential conditions that are temporally related and suggest a different than study indication etiology for the clinical features.
Patients living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) unless for at least 6 months prior to enrollment:
Are receiving antiretroviral therapy AND
Have no evidence of current clinical progression (e.g., no new or recent diagnosis of an opportunistic infection) resulting from HIV infection.
Any known or suspected medical condition or social circumstance of the patient that may jeopardize adherence to the protocol requirements or impede the accurate measurement of efficacy.
Patients with a concomitant medical condition or social circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may be an unacceptable additional risk to the patient should he/she participate in the study.
Patients who have received prior treatment with olorofim/F901318.
Treatment with any investigational drug within the 30 days prior to the first administration of study drug except for unblinded protocols (e.g., open label oncological regimen variations or biologic studies). Prior to enrolling patients who are on other open label studies, it is the site’s responsibility to ensure that the study criteria for that study allow for enrollment into this study.
Patients receiving treatment limited to supportive care due to predicted short survival time.
Patients with a baseline prolongation of QT using Fridericia’s Correction Formula (QTcF) ≥500 msec, or at high risk for QT/QTc prolongation, eg,
A family history of long QT syndrome
Other known pro-arrhythmic conditions
Risk factors for Torsade de Pointes (e.g., uncompensated heart failure, abnormal plasma potassium or magnesium levels that cannot be corrected, an unstable cardiac condition during the last 30 days).
Evidence of hepatic dysfunction with any of the following abnormal laboratory parameters at screening:
Total bilirubin ≥2 × upper limit of the normal range (ULN), OR
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥3× ULN, OR
Patients with known cirrhosis or chronic hepatic failure (regardless of ALT/AST/total bilirubin). Liver transplant recipients may be enrolled if their laboratory parameters do not meet the laboratory exclusions given above.
Prohibited concomitant medications. Concomitant administration of inhibitors of human dihydro-orotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), teriflunomide, leflunomide, and use of cannabis/cannabinoid preparations (other than topical e.g. shampoos/creams), including tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are prohibited. There are currently no other absolutely prohibited concomitant medications for olorofim but there are medications with potentially significant DDIs with olorofim or SOC and the management of potential interactions should be considered before study enrollment.
