Filter by:Healthy volunteers are being recruited for this pharmacokinetics study. The objective is to characterize the pharmacokinetic properties of maraviroc alone and when administered with rifabutin and to assess rifabutin and 25-O-desacetyl-rifabutin pharmacokinetics compared to the literature.
To assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a single dose of CAZ-AVI in children from 3 months of age to <18 years.
We propose a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the Skin intervention, compared to an assessment-only condition (both groups receive rapid HIV testing, a review of testing results, and brief HIV prevention counseling) among 350 injection drug users recruited during an acute medical hospitalization at Boston Medical Center. In the general hospital setting, injection drug users who otherwise might not seek care are accessible and teachable, and the presence of a drug-related illness can set the stage for patients to be more receptive to interventions2. We hypothesize that the Skin intervention will produce better outcomes at 1-, 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month(s) post-intervention.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether Negative Pressure Wound Therapy is an effective wound treatment compared to conventional wound treatment in the period of time from reoperation to re-suturing in women having surgical wound rupture after Caesarean Section.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether obese women (BMI >= 30) who give birth by caesarean section have a reduced incidence of wound infection and dehiscence when incisional Negative Pressure Wound Therapy is applied prophylactically following caesarean section.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the Clostridium difficile vaccine to prevent primary symptomatic C. difficile infection (CDI) in participants at risk for CDI where there is a substantial unmet medical need. Primary objective: - To assess the efficacy of the C. difficile vaccine in preventing the onset of symptomatic primary CDI confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in adult participants aged >= 50 years who are at risk for CDI and have received at least 1 injection. Secondary Objectives: Efficacy: - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after 3 injections administered at 0, 7, and 30 days. - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after completion of at least 2 injections. Immunogenicity: - To describe the immunogenicity to toxin A and toxin B at specific time points in a subset of participant and in participants with CDI at Day 0 and Day 60. Safety: - To describe the safety profile of all participants who received at least 1 injection.
The aim of this trial is to test the efficacy of an infant formula containing synbiotics on the prevention of gastro-intestinal infections.
This study seeks to compare the pharmacokinetic characteristics of Factive 200mg Intravenous Formulation (Gemifloxacin 200mg) with those of Factive 320mg Tablet Formulation (Gemifloxacin 320mg) and to explore possibility of clinical use of the IV formulation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the value of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in various inflammatory conditions caused by bacterial infection or vasculitis. Glucose analog FDG is sensitive to detect inflammation foci but we hypothesize that other imaging agents such as PK11195 and Ga-citrate may have added value in certain applications.
The purpose of this study is to determine of once identified to the subjects infected with human immunodeficiency virus (positive VIH), to diagnose latent Tuberculosis, and to treat her with isoniazid for six months, measuring the production of Interferon range pre and posttreatment, to evaluate this way the result of the treatment on the immune response
