Filter by:The objective of this study is to document the residual burden of acute upper respiratory infections (AURIs), acute lower respiratory infections (ALRIs), otitis media (OMs) and auditory functional and anatomical abnormalities in children under the age of 5 years in Nunavik who will be exposed to PHiD-CV in combination with PCV-7 or PCV-13. The comparison groups will be the cohorts of children who received no PCV vaccine (those born in 1994-1996) and those exposed to PCV-7 exclusively (those born in 2003-2007).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of rilpivirine hydrochloride in combination with other anti-retroviral (ARV) medications for the treatment of ARV-naive (patients who have not been exposed to ARV) Filipino patients with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the incidence of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) secondary infections (re-infections/re-activations) and the incidence of CMV primary infections in adolescent females.
A new paediatric formulation (oral liquid) has been developed for flexible and accurate dosing of valacyclovir in children. To establish the bioavailability of this new formulation, healthy volunteers will be exposed to the new formulation and to valacyclovir tablets. The concentration of valacyclovir in their blood after exposure to the oral liquid will be measured and compared to the tablet.
This is a randomised, double-blind, 3-part study designed to investigate the safety and tolerability of ATM-AVI. The study aims to characterise the pharmacokinetics of ATM-AVI, when both drugs are administered alone (ATM or AVI) and in combination (ATM-AVI), following single administration, and following multiple administrations of ATM-AVI in healthy male and female (females of nonchildbearing potential) volunteers both young and elderly.
Palatability testing of a new paediatric formulation of valacyclovir in children 4-12 years of age and at least one of their parents. Children will be included, who received (val)acyclovir prophylaxis in the past, or will probably need it in the future i.e. children with primary immune deficiency or cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the surgical site infection rate and patient satisfaction for absorbable versus non absorbable suture in closure of skin at cesarean section in obese women.
Healthcare-acquired infections (HAI) cause substantial patient morbidity and mortality. Commonly touched items in the patient care environment harbor microorganisms that may contribute to HAI risk. The purpose of this study is to assess whether placement of copper-alloy surfaced objects in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) reduce risk of HAI in comparison with non-copper surfaced objects.
Establish an international registry of over 400 patients with deep infections involving the bone and/or joint from≥20 centers representing all regions of the world with varied hospital and surgeon practice settings to ensure that registry analyses and research reflect typical clinical practice thereby providing optimal guidance for patients, clinicians, and healthcare researchers. Using a data collection platform that minimizes entry burden, collects most information at the time of surgery, and uses Internet technology to minimize data entry. The registry will include: 1. baseline patient attributes; 2. surgical approach, implants and technology; 3. hospital course; 4. surgeon and institutional characteristics; 5. longitudinal patient outcome, 6. post-procedure complications and revisions, 7. serum/tissue/drainage samples.
This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, antiviral activity, and pharmacokinetics of ABT-450 (also known as paritaprevir) with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) and ABT-267 (also known as ombitasvir) in adult Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1b (HCV GT1b) or genotype 2 (HCV GT2) infection who were previous treated with pegylated interferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV).
