Summary

This study tests whether a new antifungal drug called rezafungin can prevent serious fungal infections in people who have had a liver transplant. About 385 adults at high risk for infection will receive the drug, and their outcomes will be compared to similar patients from the past two years. The goal is to see if rezafungin reduces infections and improves survival without harming the new liver.
