Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Documented history of sensitivity to medicinal products or excipients similar to those found in the posaconazole preparation. 2. Relevant history or presence of cardiovascular disorders (specific QTc time prolongation). 3. Inability to understand the nature of the trial and the procedures required. 4.

| Data will be analyzed using non-linear mixed effects modeling (NONMEM). NONMEM is a one-stage analysis that simultaneously fixed (e.g. clearance, volume of distribution, covariate effects)and random (e.g. inter- and intra-individual variability and residual error) effects. Since allowance can be made for individual differences, this method can be used with both intensive sampling and sparse data (and in the occasion of missing values: an unbalanced number of data points per patients). Multiple compartment models with first-order or saturable elimination will be tested. Between subject variability (BSV) and, when applicable, between occasion variability (BOV) will be included on all pharmacokinetic parameters. Residual unexplained variability (RUV) will be estimated with additive or proportional error models. The first-order conditional estimation method with interaction will be used. Citrulline will be tested as a binary covariate on bioavailability. Dose linearity | — |
