NCT00034671

Brief Summary

This phase II study will be conducted to:

  1. 1.evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerance, and efficacy of different dosing schedules of Posaconazole in immunocompromised hosts with a variety of refractory invasive fungal infections or in subjects who require empiric antifungal therapy and
  2. 2.identify the dosing schedule that provides the most consistent therapeutic drug exposure in this patient population.
