- Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating.

- Patients who received more than four days of antifungal drugs to treat the current
episode of invasive aspergillosis or rare mold infection.

- Received within 24 hours prior to enrollment drugs that may cause QT interval
prolongation.

- Significant liver, kidney or heart dysfunction.
