PK/PD Study of Posaconazole for Empiric Treatment of Invasive Fungal Infections in Neutropenic Patients or Treatment of Refractory Invasive Fungal Infections (Study P01893)

Overview

This phase II study will be conducted to: 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. identify the dosing schedule that provides the most consistent therapeutic drug exposure in this patient population.

This is an open-label, randomized, parallel group, study of pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerance, and efficacy of Posaconazole in the treatment of immunocompromised hosts with refractory invasive fungal infections or in subjects who require empiric antifungal therapy. The projected number of subjects planned for enrollment is 100 evaluable subjects. The number of planned study sites is approximately ten in the United States and approximately eight in the rest of the world.
