This trial tests whether a shorter course of the antifungal caspofungin (7 days total) is as effective as the usual longer treatment for people with uncomplicated candidemia, a yeast infection in the blood. Participating patients must already be on caspofungin and have shown clear blood cultures for 7 days.
