Topical treatments, other than antifungals, are allowed. - Received any investigational medical product in a clinical research study within the previous 3 months before dosing in this study. - Has previously received PUR1900. - Has a history of any significant drug or alcohol abuse in the past 2 years before screening, as judged by the investigator. - Has current tobacco or inhaled marijuana use or history of smoking tobacco or marijuana within the last 6 months before screening. - Is a current user of e-cigarettes or has used these products within the last 6 months before screening. - Has a positive urine test result for drugs of abuse, alcohol, or cotinine at screening - Has a history of allergies to or hypersensitivity reactions after dosing of itraconazole or other antifungal azoles. - Had a major trauma or surgery within the last 28 days before screening.

- Intervention Model Description
- Following screening and confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) into 4 arms of 16 subjects each and will receive 10 mg, 20 mg, or 35 mg of PUR1900 or placebo, administered via dry powder inhalation daily for 28 days.

- Triple (Participant, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
- Masking Description
- The study will be performed in a double-blind manner. All study drug will be supplied in identical packaging and will be similar in color, smell, taste, and appearance to enable double-blind conditions. All study personnel will remain blinded until after database lock, unless the nature of their activities in the study specifically requires them to be unblinded. Any study documents, supplies, and tools will be reviewed to identify components that have the potential to unblind the study, and blinding restrictions will be applied where appropriate.

Detailed Description
This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo controlled, multiple-arm study. Following screening and confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) into 4 arms of 16 subjects each and will receive 10 mg, 20 mg, or 35 mg of PUR1900 or placebo, administered via dry powder inhalation daily for 28 days. The doses of PUR1900 are stated in this protocol as the respective nominal doses of itraconazole. Subject eligibility for the study will be determined within 28 days before the first dose of study drug (Day 1) and will be confirmed between 9 and 6 days before dosing and again on Day 1. Eligible subjects will begin daily dosing with study drug (PUR1900 or placebo) on Day 1. Subjects will return to the study site for visits on Days 2, 7, 14, and 28 and will be dosed at the study site. The remaining daily doses of study drug will be self-administered at home. A follow-up visit will occur 7 to 10 days after the last dose of study drug.
