Experimental: Posaconazole
On Day 1 participants receive 2 administrations of posaconazole (POS) 6 mg/kg body weight by intravenous (IV) infusion. On Days 2 through 7, participants receive POS 6 mg/kg body weight once daily by IV infusion. Beginning at Day 8 up to Day 84, participants may transition to receiving an oral formulation, or they may remain on the IV formulation.
