Filter by:The goals of this study are 3-fold: First, the main study and the primary endpoint will evaluate if the overall mortality can be decreased with initial azole-echinocandin combination therapy compared with triazole monotherapy in patients with IA and documented voriconazole susceptibility. Second, the study design described will also allow to study several other subpopulations; Indeed, the outcome of the following subgroups will be evaluated as well; a. Patients starting azole monotherapy but who switch to directed therapy when it has become clear that the infection is caused by an azole resistant A. fumigatus. b. patients in which eventually no resistance data become available in relation to the treatment they received. Third, the study will evaluate what the outcome is of patients that turn out to be infected with a triazole resistant A. fumigatus who started with a triazole-echinocandin combination therapy.
The objective of this study is to evaluate whether antifungal prophylaxis with isavuconazole can reduce the incidence of SARS-CoV-2-associated invasive aspergillosis in patients in the ICU (intensive care unit) with severe COVID-19 infection. The investigators will perform an interventional, double-blinded, randomized-controlled, multi-center study in patients with severe COVID-19 infection admitted to the ICU. Patients will be randomized to the isavuconazole prophylaxis plus standard of care (SOC) group or the placebo plus SOC group. Participants will receive isavuconazole or placebo for up to 28 days or until discharge from the hospital (whichever occurs first).
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Itraconazole Administered as a Dry Powder for Inhalation (PUR1900) in Adult Asthmatic Patients With Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis
This study tests the effects of pre-emptive treatment with an experimental drug PC945 in lung transplant recipients whose lungs are infected by the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. PC945 may be useful in treating patients infected with Aspergillus fumigatus as, unlike the usual treatments, it is inhaled into the lung and has been designed to stay there and treat the infection. Participants will be monitored for up-to 12 weeks for the presence of Aspergillus in their lungs. Suitable participants will receive PC945 for an initial 28 days (Pre-emptive treatment phase) and, if needed, a further 8-weeks (Extended treatment phase).The amount of fungus in the patients' lungs will be measured over the course of the study. Participants with lung infections but not eligible for PC945 will be followed-up for 16-weeks on standard of care treatment. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and 10 participants will receive PC945. The maximum study duration will be about 28 weeks.
This study tests the effects of an experimental drug PC945 in people with cystic fibrosis whose lungs are infected by the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. PC945 may be useful in treating patients infected with Aspergillus fumigatus as, unlike the usual treatments, it is inhaled into the lung and has been designed to stay there and treat the infection. Participants will continue to be treated with their usual cystic fibrosis treatment and will also receive PC945. The amount of fungus in the patients' phlegm will be measured over the course of the study. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and will include approximately 18 participants. The maximum study duration will be about 16 weeks.
This study tests the effects of an experimental drug PC945 in people with asthma or other chronic respiratory diseases whose lungs are infected by Aspergillus fungi and Candida yeasts. PC945 may be useful in treating patients infected with Aspergillus as, unlike the usual treatments, it is inhaled into the lung and has been designed to stay there and treat the infection. Participants will continue to receive their usual treatment for their chronic respiratory disease. Half of the participants will receive PC945 and half will receive a placebo. The amount of fungus and yeast in the patients' phlegm will be measured over the course of the study. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and will include approximately 46 participants. The maximum study duration will be about 16 weeks.
The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new antifungal with a novel mechanism of action in immunocompromised adults with invasive aspergillosis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous micafungin for the treatment of adult patients in China infected by Candida spp or Aspergillus spp.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous micafungin for the treatment of proven or probable fungal infections caused by Aspergillus sp. (Fungemia, respiratory mycosis, gastrointestinal mycosis) in adult patients in China.
Concentrations of voriconazole in pulmonary epithelial lining fluid and in serum are compared after inhalation of 40 mg voriconazole b.i.d. for two days or oral intake of voriconazole tablets 400 mg bid for 1 day followed by 200 mg b.i.d. for one day, respectively.
