Study Summary

This is a Phase IV randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study in 1000 individuals aged 18 years or older, with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) who meet all eligibility criteria in endemic regions. This study is designed to provide data on the effectiveness of early antifungal treatment (Fluconazole, 400 mg/day) for coccidioidomycosis pneumonia (also referred to as Valley Fever (VF) Pneumonia or acute onset valley fever) vs. placebo in subjects with coccidioidomycosis pneumonia. Patients who are prescribed antibacterials by their health care provider for acute CAP will be randomized to receive either placebo or 400 mg/day of fluconazole for 42 days. The primary objective is to assess the clinical response of early empiric antifungal therapy with fluconazole at Day 22 in subjects with coccidioidomycosis pneumonia and are compliant with the study intervention.

Primary Outcome

The Modified Scoring System for Evaluating Treatment Response in Early Coccidioidal Pneumonia (FLEET CAP) score is a clinical scoring system that allows a constellation of clinical symptoms to be quantified and scored over time: cough, fatigue, chest pain, dyspnea, sputum production, night sweats, fever and hypoxia. The recall period for symptom assessments was during the past week, with the exception of fever and hypoxia, which was measured on the day the FLEET CAP was administered. All symptom
