Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Infants and toddlers with fungal infections will receive 10 to 14 days of treatment with an antifungal drug. Safety and drug blood levels will be assessed

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, repeat-dose study. Subjects will receive treatment with intravenous micafungin for 10 to 14 days (per investigator clinical judgment) at a daily dose of 4.5 mg/kg (determined by the subject's weight at baseline).
