Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether Terix Labs Ltd Metronidazole benzoate (400 mg Metronidazole Per Sachet Oral Granules) is bioequivalent to 500 mg Sanofi-aventis Flagyl 125 mg/5 ml (125 mg Metronidazole Per 5 ml Suspension) and to Zentiva Flagyl™ 400 mg Tablets (400 mg Metronidazole Per Film Coated Tablets).
The objectives of this study are to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of OP0595 administered intravenously to healthy male, Caucasian, adult subjects at single escalating doses.
The purpose of this Phase 1 trial is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of oritavancin in patients <18 years old with a confirmed or suspected bacterial infection.
The study hypothesis is that the loading dose of intravenous colistin (6 million of international units) is associated with greater clinical and microbiological efficacy, and reduced mortality of critically ill patients infected by multidrug resistant Gram- negative bacilli, compared to a scheme without loading dose.
Triple therapy (TT) comprising proton pump inhibitor (PPI), amoxicillin 1g and clarithromycin 500mg twice daily has long been considered one of the standard treatment for H. pylori infection as initial studies demonstrated success rates of > 90% on per protocol analysis (PP) and > 80% on intention to treat (ITT) analysis. However increasing bacterial resistance, especially to clarithromycin, has been reported and there are concerns that the efficacy of TT has decreased. Sequential therapy (ST) is an alternative first line therapy that consists of 5 days of treatment with a PPI and amoxicillin followed by 5-day treatment with the PPI and clarithromycin and metronidazole. The rationale for this approach is that amoxicillin may weaken the bacterial cell wall in the initial phase of treatment, and prevent the development of drug efflux channels that inhibit clarithromycin from binding to ribosomes and thus help to improve the efficacy of clarithromycin in the second phase of treatment. A recent meta-analysis based on mainly European studies showed that the success rate of ST compared to TT was 92.8 - 96% vs. 76.2 - 78.8%. Concomitant therapy (CT) is another alternative first line treatment that consists of 10 days of PPI, amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole. The rationale for using CT as a first line treatment option is to address the possibility of clarithromycin resistance which is increasingly encountered in clinical practice. Currently there are no randomized controlled studies that compared TT with ST in Singapore, although both regimens are being used in routine clinical practice. The hypothesis is that ST is superior to TT as first line treatment for H. pylori infection. The study aim to compare 10-day TT versus 10-day ST versus 10-day CT as first line treatment for H. pylori infection in Singapore.
All patients undergoing autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) for any underlying disease will be monitored for severe infections by gram negative bacteria (SIGNB) during the engraftment period. The follow up will be stopped at 4 months from the day of transplant. About 50 transplant centers will be involved in the study.
This study will investigate pharmacological interventions between fluconazole and ibuprofen when they are given to premature newborn babys. This in order to find out if the drugs are influencing each other when they are given at the same time. The study is meant to find out if there are reasons to adjust the dose when fluconazole and ibuprofen are given together.
The main challenge of the ChARLI program is to assess the clinical burden of severe neonatal and childhood bacterial infections in low-income countries,in particular those caused by antibiotic resistant bacteria. This program will address both healthcare associated, as well as community acquired infections. Beside its main challenge, the ChARLI program will also allow the assessment of the economic burden of these infections, the improvement of their medical care and then ultimately help to set public health interventions and guide public health measures necessary to combat bacterial infections and bacterial resistance in children. It will also lead to set up more basic research investigation to better understand how pathogenic and epidemic may be the resistant clones in these countries and to experiment innovative strategies devoted to prevent these infections. In order to achieve these objectives, an international paediatric cohort will be created, and monitored a platform. This will be done first within the Institut Pasteur International Network (IPIN) and possibly extended in some others low income countries where the IPIN has no center. This constituted initiative will represent the first international pediatric program of its size to be located in low-income countries and specifically focusing severe bacterial infections and bacterial resistance to antibiotics
This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety between Tedizolid 200mg daily (intra venous) I.V. to oral for 6-day treatment compared with that of Linezolid 600mg twice daily I.V. to oral for 10-day treatment Acute Bacterial Skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI).This is a double-blind, randomized, active control, 7-10days treatment for all subjects.
Military service members and the U.S. veteran population face a growing and serious health threat: widespread antibiotic resistance resulting from resistant bacteria and a dwindling pipe-line of sufficiently potent antibiotics. Infections with antibiotic resistant bacteria are increasing significantly. They cause major complications and mortality, and drive up healthcare costs. Powerful but non-targeted antibiotics, while in widespread use, can actually pressure bacteria to develop resistance.
