Filter by:1. This study is a non-randomized observational cohort trial using before and after comparison to evaluate intervention 2. It would mimic the conditions that would occur outside a clinical trial. 2. After consent and enrolment, all procedures will be guided by the Australian STI Management Guidelines. 3. All enrolling participants will be offered daily doxycycline 100mg 4. All participants will be invited to complete a survey in every 3 months time for 12 months dated from participation. 5. All follow-up information will be collected through electronic data capture to allow accurate and timely analyses. 6. Data collection will be from (i) medical records (ii) online self-completed questionnaire
Consenting adult female patient felt by the provider to require gonorrhea/chlamydia endocervical testing will be asked to provide an additional self sample specimen. The specimen will be sent to the laboratory using conventional diagnostic test for gonorrhea/chlamydia.
A clinical trial to compare the efficacy of azithromycin (Arm 1) vs. doxycycline (Arm 2) administered per CDC's STD Treatment Guidelines for rectal Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) in men who have sex with men (MSM). Subjects will be males aged = / > 18 years with a microbiologically confirmed diagnosis of rectal CT and at least one male sex partner in the past 12 months. The trial will be conducted at two sites in the US and will enroll up to 274 total subjects to achieve 246 subjects who contribute to the primary analysis. The duration of this study will be approximately 16 months 22 months with subject participation duration 29 days. The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of azithromycin vs. doxycycline for treatment of rectal CT infection in MSM based on microbiologic cure (negative NAAT) at Day 29.
This is a multi-center study with a minimum of three sites in the United States. The study will enroll approximately 1750 female subjects and will have a study duration of approximately 9 months after enrollment of the first subject. Female subjects seen at the participating sites for any reason will be evaluated for enrollment in this study. All subjects will be managed per standard of care as applicable. Subjects who are enrolled in the study will perform self-collection of a vaginal swab to be tested by Click device, and allow the health care provider (HCP) to collect three additional vaginal swabs to be tested by recognized FDA-cleared comparator methods. Subjects will complete the study in a single visit. The primary objective is to assess the performance of the Click device for detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) in self-collected vaginal specimens as compared to Patient Infected Status (PIS) determined by three approved comparator assays using vaginal specimens collected by a qualified HCP in support of obtaining FDA clearance.
This study aims to compare the sensitivity of detecting Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Mycoplasma genitalium by real-time multiplex PCR in a pooled analysis (i.e. gathering pharyngeal, anorectal and urinary samples) versus the standard of care (where a real-time multiplex PCR is made in each of the three samples).
Chlamydia trachomatis is the most commonly reported bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI), especially among young women. Up to 75% of C. trachomatis infected women are asymptomatic. If untreated, C. trachomatis infection can cause sequelae such as pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy and tubal factor infertility. C. trachomatis can also cause anorectal infections, which are typically asymptomatic. Among women with urogenital chlamydial infection, around 36-91% also had concurrent anorectal chlamydial. Notably, there was no association with anal intercourse in the studies that reported it. However, guidelines do not recommend routine anorectal testing, but restricted testing in people who are in high-risk groups, report anal sexual behavior, or have anal symptoms, i.e., on selective indications. This is in contrast to urogenital testing, which is a routine procedure in STI care services. The anal transmission of C. trachomatis in women may occur by autoinoculation from the vagina due to the close proximity of the vagina and the anus. C. trachomatis could lead to a persistent infection in the lower gastrointestinal tract, suggesting the potential role of autoinoculation of cervical chlamydial infection from the rectal site. Such (repeat) urogenital infections could lead to reproductive tract morbidity. Recommended treatments for C. trachomatis infections are a single 1g dose of azithromycin or 100mg of doxycycline 2 times a day for 7 days. Although these two regimens are equivalent for urogenital infection, no study has compared the effectiveness of these two treatments on anorectal infection. If rectal C. trachomatis is a hidden reservoir influencing transmission rates, and considering the potential complications of cervical infections, providing further evidence of the need for effective rectal treatments among women is highly relevant.
The study evaluated if interactive theater in school sex education affects student knowledge, attitudes and behavior regarding condom use. The intervention group got a play, value exercises, chlamydia games, condom school and interactive replay with professional actors and staff from a youth guidance center. The control group got standard sex education from school staff, based on the education guidelines of the Swedish National Agency for Education.
The proposed study is a single center (with multiple long-term YCFs) treatment trial of the CDC-recommended azithromycin regimen (1 gm PO once) for chlamydia in males. This study is designed primarily to determine the frequency of chlamydia treatment failure following azithromycin in males who do versus do not have urethral symptoms of urethral discharge and/or dysuria. Anticipated enrollment is 446 males, between the age of 12 to 21 years old, with subject participation duration of 28 days and study duration of 4 years. The primary objective of the study is to assess the microbiological efficacy of azithromycin in uncomplicated Chlamydia trachomatis infection in males with versus without urethral symptoms in YCFs.
Phase 2B double-blind placebo-controlled efficacy trial of EVO100 (previously known as Amphora ® Gel) for the prevention of acquisition of urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis infection
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of utilizing a rapid turnaround CT/NG test on treatment of female patients in the emergency department or urgent care setting with possible STIs.
