Voriconazole plasma concentrations and TDM are treatment outcome predictors, but research is needed to form a consensus target therapeutic range and dosage adjustment guidelines based on plasma concentrations. CYP2C19 polymorphisms are a predictor of voriconazole concentrations and metabolism, but clinical implications are not established. Large-scale, high-methodological-quality trials are required to investigate the role for prospective genotyping and establish CYP2C19-guided voriconazole dosing recommendations.
