Brief Summary:
To assess the efficacy and safety of itraconazole oral solution in HIV-seropositive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis that is refractory to fluconazole.
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |

Patients receive itraconazole oral solution twice daily. Per 08/15/94 amendment, patients with complete resolution of oropharyngeal candidiasis lesions upon completion of treatment are eligible for maintenance treatment on protocol FDA 236C. Patients who decline maintenance are followed for 6 weeks. Patients who relapse during follow-up are re-treated for 14-28 days; if lesions clear, patients may enter the maintenance protocol.
