Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Pharmacokinetics of 14C-labeled Isavuconazole; Healthy Subjects
• Interventions: Drug: 14C-labeled prodrug isavuconazonium sulfate

• Registration Number: NCT01813461
• Lead Sponsor: Astellas Pharma Global Development, Inc.

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of 14C-labeled isavuconazole and the routes of excretion and the extent of metabolism of 14C-labeled prodrug BAL8557.

Detailed Description

Subjects will be admitted to and stay in a clinical research unit for 23 days. On Day 1, they will receive a single oral dose of BAL8557 and throughout the study period the excretion and metabolism of the study drug will be monitored.
