Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Itraconazole
Participants with Tinea cruris or Tinea corporis infection that have been prescribed itraconazole 200 milligram (mg) daily by their treating physician will be enrolled in this study. Participants will receive itraconazole 200 mg orally once daily for 7 days and at the discretion of the treating physician on Day 14. Participants will also get their regular clinical care at the discretion of their treating physician.
Drug: Itraconazole
Participants will receive itraconazole 200 mg orally once daily for 7 days and at the discretion of the treating physician on Day 14. Participants will also get their regular clinical care at the discretion of their treating physician.
Other Name: JNJ-16269994




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants with Clinical Response [ Time Frame: Day 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 Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants who Have Mycological Cure [ Time Frame: Day 14 ]
    Percentage of participants who have mycological cure will be reported. Mycological cure is defined as both culture and microscopy negative to causative fungi.

  2. Plasma Concentrations of Itraconazole and Hydroxy-Itraconazole [ Time Frame: Days 7 and 14: Pre-dose, 2 and 4.5 hours ]
    Plasma concentrations of itraconazole and hydroxy-itraconazole will be measured.

  3. Baseline Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Itraconazole [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0) ]
    Minimum inhibitory concentration of itraconazole toward fungal pathogens will be determined.

  4. Percentage of Participants with Clinical Response [ Time Frame: Day 14 ]
    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).
