Inclusion Criteria
  • The subject has a body weight of at least 45 kg and has a body mass index (BMI) of 18 to 32 kg/m2, inclusive
  • Results for aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin must not be above the normal range
  • The female subject agrees to sexual abstinence, or is surgically sterile, postmenopausal (defined as at least 2 years at Screening without menses), or using a medically acceptable double barrier method (e.g. spermicide and diaphragm, or spermicide and condom) to prevent pregnancy and agrees to continue using this method from Screening until the end of the study; and is not lactating or pregnant as documented by negative pregnancy tests at Screening and Day -1
  • The male subject agrees to sexual abstinence, is surgically sterile, or is using a medically acceptable method to prevent pregnancy during the study period
Exclusion Criteria
  • The subject has a history of unexplained syncope, cardiac arrest, unexplained cardiac arrhythmia or torsade de pointes, structural heart disease, or family history of Long QT syndrome (suggested by sudden death of a close relative at a young age due to possible or probable cardiac causes)
  • The subject has a positive result for hepatitis C antibodies or hepatitis B surface antigen at Screening or is known to be positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • The subject has a known or suspected allergy to any of the components of the trial products or the azole class of compounds or a history of multiple and/or severe allergies to drugs or foods (as judged by the investigator), or a history of severe anaphylactic reactions
  • The subject is a smoker (any use of tobacco or nicotine containing products) within 6 months prior to Screening
  • The subject has had treatment with prescription drugs or complementary and alternative medicines within 14 days prior to Day -1, or over-the-counter medications within 1 week prior to Day -1, with the exception of occasionally use of ibuprofen
  • The subject has a recent history (within the last 2 years) of drug or alcohol abuse, or a positive drug and/or alcohol screen
