This study evaluates the the pharmacokinetics of posaconazole (new solid oral and IV) given as prophylaxis to patients who are at risk for developing fungal infections after receiving conditioning therapy (except strictly non-myeloablative (NMA)) for allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant (SCT), remission induction chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelo dysplastic syndrome (MDS) or being treated for severe graft versus host disease (GvHD) and determines the impact of mucositis on the pharmacokinetics of posaconazole new solid oral.

What they're measuring
1
exposure to posaconazole (Area Under the Curve) when administered intravenously and orally (tablet formulation)
Timeframe: day 7, day 12 and day 16
2
impact of mucositis (determined by citrulline concentrations) on exposure (AUC) to posaconazole.
