As infection risk persists beyond the first posttransplant year, investigations evaluating extended prophylaxis durations are needed. The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence of coccidioidomycosis among lung transplant recipients receiving universal lifelong azole antifungal prophylaxis.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Patients receiving transplants from 2013\u20132018 and initiated on azole antifungal prophylaxis at a lung transplant center in Arizona were included and followed through 2019 or until death, second transplant, or loss to follow-up. Recipients who died or received treatment for coccidioidomycosis during the transplant admission, or who had received a previous transplant, were excluded. The primary outcome was proven or probable coccidioidomycosis with new asymptomatic seropositivity assessed secondarily.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 493 lung transplant recipients were included, with 82% initiated on itraconazole prophylaxis, 9.3% on voriconazole, and 8.5% on posaconazole. Mean age at transplant was 62 years, 77% were diabetic, and 8% were seropositive for Coccidioides pretransplant. After a median follow-up of 31 months, 1 proven infection and 1 case of new asymptomatic seropositivity (1\/493 each, 0.2% incidence) occurred during the study period. The single coccidioidomycosis case occurred 5 years posttransplant in a patient who had azole prophylaxis stopped several months prior. Although within-class switches were common throughout the study period, permanent discontinuation of azole prophylaxis was rare (1.4% at end of follow-up).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n
