Overall, 82/177 patients (46.3%) had either proven or probable invasive mould disease (6 and 76, respectively, mostly invasive pulmonary aspergillosis). In patients with proven or probable disease, 30-day mortality was 44.0%, and 90-day mortality was 62.2%. In multivariable analyses, SOFA score (HR 1.14 per one point increase, 95% CI 1.03-1.26, <i>P</i> = 0.010) and concomitant bacterial pneumonia (HR 2.32, 95% CI 1.17-4.59, <i>P</i> = 0.016) were associated with 30-day mortality, whereas prior hospitalization (HR 2.26, 95% CI 1.19-4.27, <i>P</i> = 0.013) and SOFA score (HR 1.17 per one point increase, 95% CI 1.07-1.28, <i>P</i> < 0.001) were associated with 90-day mortality.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Diverse patterns of isavuconazole use were observed in a large cohort of critically ill adult patients, and the drug was well tolerated.
