Filter by:The combination of two Lactubacillus reuteri strains, ATC 55730 and ATCC PTA 6457 are marketed as GASTRUS® and has been proposed as better option in increasing Helicobacter pylori eradication rate compared to the single strain ATC 55730, due to additional anti-inflammatory properties of the second strain. Objectives of the study are to determine whether adding probiotic combination (GASTRUS®) to an anti- Helicobacter pylori regimen decreases adverse events and increases the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori in the pediatric population infected with Helicobacter pylori bacteria.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ABT-493/ABT-530 following 12 weeks of treatment in adults with chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection genotype 1, 2, 4, 5 or 6 infection and compensated cirrhosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-493/ABT-530 in adults with genotype 2 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
The aim of the present study is to test the efficacy of the combination of two probiotic bacteria in reducing the severity of upper respiratory tract infections (common cold) in healthy children attending day care or school. The probiotic bacteria used are Lactobacillus plantarum strain DSM 15312 and Lactobacillus paracasei DSM 13434 at a total dose of 1 x 10^9 CFU/tablet and day and will be consumed for a period of 12 weeks.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 8 weeks and of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) FDC for 12 weeks in participants naive to direct-acting antivirals (DAA) with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and cirrhosis.
The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (Vosevi®; SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks and of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (Epclusa®; SOF/VEL) FDC for 12 weeks in direct-acting antiviral (DAA)-experienced adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with or without cirrhosis who have not received prior treatment with a regimen containing an inhibitor of the HCV NS5A protein.
This is a study comparing two methods of dressing a post operative wound that are currently in practice. One method is a traditional dry gauze dressing. The other method is using a negative pressure dressing that provides gentle suction on the wound. The investigators will attempt to determine how well the use of post-operative negative pressure dressing reduces wound healing problems in patients who have surgery after radiation for a sarcoma in the thigh or leg.
Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs), the most common infection in pregnancy,are associated with several maternal and fetal complications, including maternal septic shock, preterm labor, intrauterine growth restriction and intrauterine fetal death. Thus, the prevention of UTIs in pregnancy is a very important goal. Several studies have suggested that alterations in the vaginal flora were associated with recurrent UTIs, and probiotic administrations may have a role in preventing those infections. Nevertheless, this has never been tested in pregnant women.
Phase I Clinical Trial for Comparison of Pharmacokinetic Characteristics of Vorico Injection 200mg(Voriconazole) and Vfend® IV 200mg for Single Dose Crossover Intravenous Infusion in Healthy Volunteers
Rectal and genital sampling in HIV prevention trials permits assessments at the site of HIV entry. Yet the safety and acceptability of circumcision and sigmoidoscopy (and associated abstinence recommendations) are unknown in uncircumcised men who have sex with men (MSM) at high risk of HIV infection. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of methods for assessing baseline characteristics of the mucosa of MSM at risk of HIV infection in Lima, Peru.
