Filter by:VT-1161 is a novel, oral inhibitor of fungal lanosterol demethylase (CYP51). In vitro and in vivo pharmacology studies have demonstrated that VT-1161 is highly active against Candida albicans and also non-albicans Candida species that cause vulvovaginal candidiasis. VT-1161 is highly selective for fungal CYP51, and data suggests that it may avoid the side-effect profile that limits the use of commonly prescribed antifungal agents for the treatment of recurrent yeast infections.
The trial medicinal product (Lcr Regenerans®) is obtained from the culture of a strain of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35®. By virtue of the freeze-drying technique, Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35® is a live bacterium administered with its culture medium. It should be noted that Lcr Regenerans® is already marketed as a medical device (EC marking: 0499). It helps to regenerate the vaginal flora thanks to its physical and chemical effects (lowering the vaginal pH). A number of in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated the ability of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35®: - to establish itself in the vaginal epithelium, along with the durability of this establishment. - and to inhibit the growth of pathogenic organisms responsible for causing bacterial vaginosis (Gardnerella vaginalis and Prevotella bivia) but also for mycoses (Candida albicans), by synthesising various microbicidal substances. This research follows on from the Candiflore observational study in which 514 patients were monitored and which demonstrated a clearly positive result in favour of the use of vaginal Lcr Regenerans® for preventing recurrences of VVC. The purpose of this new research is thus to demonstrate the efficacy of Lcr Regenerans®, in the prevention of vulvovaginal candidiasis recurrences in patients with a history of VVC with recurrent episodes, in view of obtaining a marketing authorisation.
To determine proportion of women achieving clinical and mycological cure or have recurrences / reinfection after being treated for an acute episode of vulvovaginal candidiasis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of oral SCY-078 vs. standard-of-care following initial intravenous echinocandin therapy in the treatment of invasive candidiasis.
A clinical study to compare the clinical efficacy of vaginal tablets containing 10mg dequalinium chloride (Fluomizin) with the clinical efficacy of 100mg clotrimazole in patients suffering from vulvovaginal candidiasis, to assess safety of the two medications during the treatment, and to evaluate women's satisfaction with the two treatments.
The purpose of the study is to 1) define the operating characteristics of fungal biomarker assays in pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis, 2) determine the change in fungal biomarker assay results in children who develop invasive candidiasis, and 3) create a biobank of blood samples from pediatric patients at high-risk for invasive candidiasis and those with invasive candidiasis for future testing of fungal biomarker assays and development of new fungal biomarker assays. The study will assemble a prospective cohort of pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis. Blood samples for biomarker testing will be obtained at the time a patient has a clinical indication for blood culture attainment. Additional blood sampling will be performed on the sub-set of patients that are found to have invasive candidiasis. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of biomarker assays will be determined for each biomarker assay. No PHI will be stored in the database and limits on blood draws (3 ml/kg in an 8 week period) will be adhered to.
Vaginitis is the most common condition encountered in the gynecologist's office and is most commonly caused by bacerial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV). Establishing the correct etiology of symptomatic vaginitis can be challenging, and the evaluation of vaginitis by physicians is often substandard. The investigators will determine whether NAAT testing will improve the diagnosis of vaginal infections including bacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV).
Several dental professionals recommend that complete denture wearers should brush their palate. Some advantages include better cleansing and blood flow, which may help to prevent or treat oral infections, such as denture-related stomatitis. However, there is no previous clinical trial dealing on that subject. Therefore, our goal is to evaluate whether palatal brushing may change the severity of denture stomatitis or counts of microbes on dentures and mucosa. After an initial exam and data collection, participants will receive instructions for palatal hygiene and will be assessed following 1 and 3 months. Collected data include patient-reported information, intraoral photographs and swabbing (for counting microbes). Tested Hypotheses: - There is no difference in the extent of palatal inflammation in edentulous patients with denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing. - There is no difference in the number of colony forming unit (CFU) of Candida isolated from palate and denture of patients affected by denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing.
The objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy and safety of Roxane's clotrimazole troches vs. Mycelex troches in HIV positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis, where this condition has been diagnosed by clinical examination and confirmed by fungal culture.
The study is focused to prove that the efficacy and safety of Clotrimazole vaginal tablet vs Fluconazole for the treatment of severe vulvovaginal candidiasis
