Reporting Groups
  Description
All Participants Voriconazole intravenous (IV) multiple dose (7 mg/kg once every 12 hours) was administered in the morning and evening on Days 1 to 7 (up to Day 20 or more if clinically indicated). The oral maintenance dosing regimen (200 mg every 12 hours) was administered following voriconazole IV in the morning and evening and lasted 6.5 days (up to Day 30 if clinically indicated).

  Hide Outcome Measure 4

Measure Type Primary
Measure Title AUC12,ss Following Oral Administration
Measure Description AUC12,ss = Area under the plasma concentration-time profile from time zero (predose) to twelve hours at steady-state. AUC12,ss was obtained by the Linear/Log trapezoidal method.
Time Frame Day 7 (or later) predose, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours postdose  
Safety Issue No  

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
ITT population of participants who had completed PK blood sampling for at least one day. N = number of participants with analyzable data.
