Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants with Clinical ResponseDay 7 (End of Treatment)Percentage of participants with clinical response will be reported. Assessment of clinical response will be done by using Investigator Global Evaluation tool based on the signs and symptoms and clinical improvement scores. The percentage of clinical improvement will be measured at the score ranging from 1 to 5 where Score 1: Healed (absence of signs and symptoms), Score 2: Markedly improved (greater than \[\>\] 50 percentage \[%\] clinical improvement), Score 3: Considerable residual lesion (less than \[\<\] 50% clinical improvement), Score 4: No change (same as baseline), and Score 5: Worse (deterioration from baseline). Clinical response will be defined as having Scores 1 or 2 (healed or markedly improved).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants who Have Mycological CureDay 14Percentage of participants who have mycological cure will be reported. Mycological cure is defined as both culture and microscopy negative to causative fungi.
Plasma Concentrations of Itraconazole and Hydroxy-ItraconazoleDays 7 and 14: Pre-dose, 2 and 4.5 hoursPlasma concentrations of itraconazole and hydroxy-itraconazole will be measured.
Baseline Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of ItraconazoleBaseline (Day 0)Minimum inhibitory concentration of itraconazole toward fungal pathogens will be determined.
Percentage of Participants with Clinical ResponseDay 14Percentage of participants with clinical response will be reported. Assessment of clinical response will be done by using Investigator Global Evaluation tool based on the signs and symptoms and clinical improvement scores. The percentage of clinical improvement will be measured at the score ranging from 1 to 5 where Score 1: Healed (Absence of signs and symptoms), Score 2: Markedly improved (greater than \[\>\] 50 percentage \[%\] clinical improvement), Score 3: Considerable residual lesion (less than \[\<\] 50% clinical improvement), Score 4: No change (same as baseline), and Score 5: Worse (deterioration from baseline). Clinical response will be defined as having Scores 1 or 2 (healed or markedly improved).
