Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Voriconazole Inhalation Powder
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: Voriconazole Inhalation Powder - Investigational drug will be supplied as capsules, each capsule contains 10 mg of Voriconazole Inhalation Powder. The capsules will be administered with the provided breath actuated Plastiape RS00 Model 8 Dry Powder Inhaler device.

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Placebo will be supplied as capsules, each capsule will contain no active ingredient. The capsules will be administered with the provided breath actuated Plastiape RS00 Model 8 Dry Powder Inhaler device.


Treatment: Drugs: Voriconazole Inhalation Powder
For each dose, multiple inhalations will be required (4 capsules in Cohort 1 and 8 capsules in Cohort 2). All capsules for a given dose must be inhaled over a maximum 10-minute period. Cohort 1 will receive 40 mg BID and Cohort 2 will receive 80 mg BID. Both Cohorts will administer study drug for 3.5 days (7 days total).

Treatment: Drugs: Placebo
For each dose, multiple inhalations will be required (4 capsules in Cohort 1 and 8 capsules in Cohort 2). All capsules must be inhaled over a maximum 10-minute period. Cohort 1 will receive 4 capsules of inactive BID and Cohort 2 will receive 8 capsules of inactive BID. Both Cohorts will administer placebo capsules for 3.5 days (7 days total).
