Abstract in brief

Invasive fungal diseases (IFDs) cause over 300 million severe cases and 1.5 million deaths each year, posing a significant health threat around the world.
The World Health Organization has identified 19 key fungal pathogens as urgent public health concerns, primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals due to conditions like HIV, cancer, and chemotherapy.
The rise in IFD morbidity and mortality is exacerbated by limited antifungal treatments, increasing drug resistance, a growing vulnerable population, and complications from the COVID-19 pandemic, prompting the need for new strategies in antifungal therapy.
