NCT ID: NCT01183611 Completed - Virus Disease Clinical Trials

The Safety and Immunogenicity of Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccines in the Health Neonates

Start date: April 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of 10 mcg recombinant hepatitis B vaccine in the Chinese health neonates. The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following 3 doses immunization of the 10 mcg experimental dose and 10 or 5 mcg control dose, Participants will include up to 1740 healthy neonates. This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase III study. This study is designed to investigate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of 10ug recombinant hepatitis B vaccine (yeast). Subjects will be stratified by the mother with positive for both HBsAg and HBeAg, positive for the surface antigen but negative for HBeAg, negative for the HBsAg and HBeAg and HBeAb and HBcAb. - Stratified 1: There are 180 neonates born to the mother with positive for both HBsAg and HBeAg will be randomized into two groups according to the ratio of 2:1. 120 subjects will receive the 10 mcg experimental vaccine and 60 subjects will receive 10 mcg control vaccine respectively. - Stratified 2: There are 360 neonates born to the mother with positive for HBsAg but negative for HBeAg will be randomized into two groups according to the ratio of 2:1. 240 subjects will receive the 10 mcg experimental vaccine and 120 subjects will receive 10 mcg control vaccine respectively. - Stratified 3: There are 1200 neonates born to the mother with negative for the HBsAg and HBeAg and HBeAb and HBcAb will be randomized into 3 groups. 600 of them will receive the 10mcg experimental vaccine. 300 subjects will receive 10mcg control vaccine. And the other 300 subjects will receive 5mcg control vaccine. The recombinant hepatitis B vaccine will be administered at m0, 1 and 6. Following each immunization, safety will be measured by assessment of adverse events through 30 days following each vaccination, serious adverse events and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 6 months post the final vaccination (Day 180 after last vaccination). For the immunogenicity testing will apply the chemiluminescence immunoassay on serum obtained on the day 0, 210 and 360 after born.

NCT ID: NCT01181206 Completed - Clinical trials for Covering of the Abdominal Wall in Laparotomies With an Approved Abdominal 3M™ Steri-Drape™ Wound Edge Protector and Standard Woven

Covering of the Abdominal Wall in Laparotomies: Differences in Surgical Site Infections Between an Approved Abdominal 3M™ Steri-Drape™ Wound Edge Protector and Standard Woven Swabs at Technische Universität München

BaFo
Start date: August 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

BaFo is a prospective, double-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial that assesses the numbers of surgical site infections in two different techniques of covering the abdominal wall in laparotomies. Standard covering with woven swabs is compared to a novel, approved 3M™ Steri-Drape™ Wound Edge Protector.

NCT ID: NCT01178905 Completed - Preterm Infants Clinical Trials

Clinical Evaluation of Ultrashort-term Heat Inactivation of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Containing Raw Breast Milk to Prevent CMV-infection of Preterm Infants

Start date: August 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate, in a prospective multicenter study, ultrashort-term heat inactivation for the prevention of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) transmission in preterm infants (<32 weeks gestational age or <1500 g birth weight) under clinical conditions. Inactivation will be done only during the period of infectivity of breast milk, characterized by viral excretion strongly associated with subsequent infection, monitored by periodic virologic examinations of BM and urine of the infant. Thus the investigators hypothesis is that no CMV transmission through breast milk will occur using a gentle ultrashort heat inactivation procedure applied to infective breast milk. The protocol has been approved by the ethics committee of Tuebingen University Hospital.

NCT ID: NCT01176786 Completed - Infections Clinical Trials

Reusable Versus Disposable Draping System in Breast Reconstruction Surgery

Start date: September 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will look at the rate of infections developed by subjects comparing the use of disposable draping systems versus reusable draping systems in the operating room.

NCT ID: NCT01175044 Completed - Arthroplasty Clinical Trials

Dilute Betadine Lavage in the Prevention of Postoperative Infection

Start date: August 2010
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of a dilute betadine solution in reducing infectious complications in revision total knee arthroplasty. The investigators will enroll patients who are scheduled to undergo a revision total knee arthroplasty. Patients will be randomized into two groups. The treatment group will receive a dilute betadine lavage prior to surgical closure for 3 minutes followed by 2000ml of sterile saline irrigation and the control group will receive the 2000ml sterile saline lavage alone.

NCT ID: NCT01174212 Completed - Infection Clinical Trials

Effect of Prophylactic Antibiotics on Intra-Operative Culture Results

Start date: July 2010
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Subjects will be consented and then determined randomly whether they will receive antibiotics prior to their surgery or during their surgery. Each patient will have cultures taken before and during their surgery from the infected hip or knee. Results will be compared after completion of the study.

NCT ID: NCT01173575 Completed - Bacterial Infection Clinical Trials

Start date: August 2010
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This project aims to assess the clinical and microbiological efficacy of fosfomycin(FOM) in patients with bacterial infection. Primary objective: • To assess clinical and microbiological efficacy of FOM in patients with bacterial infection. Secondary objectives: - To determine the rate and severity of unexpected adverse events. - To determine the mean duration of therapy with FOM in patients with bacterial infection. Study design: Multi-center, non-interventional study

NCT ID: NCT01170221 Completed - Clinical trials for Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Bacterial Infections

TR-701 FA vs. Linezolid for the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections.

Start date: August 15, 2010
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, double-blind, double dummy, multicenter Phase 3 study of oral TR-701 FA 200 mg once daily for 6 days versus oral Zyvox® (linezolid) 600 mg every 12 hours for 10 days for the treatment of ABSSSI in adults. Approximately 75 to 100 sites globally will participate in this study. Patients with an ABSSSI caused by suspected or documented gram positive pathogen(s) at baseline will be randomized 1:1 to study treatment

NCT ID: NCT01168895 Completed - Clinical trials for Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive

Study in COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) Subjects to Investigate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Ciprofloxacin After Single Dose Inhalations of 50 mg and 75 mg Ciprofloxacin Inhalation Powder

Start date: July 2010
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and pharmacokinetics of ciprofloxacin after inhalation of single 52.5 and 48.75 mg doses in COPD patients. In this study the 48.75 mg dose will be administered for the first time using a new high dose strength (i.e. one capsule containing 75 mg powder = 48.75 mg ciprofloxacin) formulation. Safety investigations will focus on local tolerability in the lung and evaluate whether the patient can inhale the higher amount of powder compared to the lower dose strength. Pharmacokinetics is to see how the body absorbs, distributes, breaks down and gets rid of the study drug. Results from this study will be used to decide whether the new dose strength is suitable for larger clinical trials planned for the COPD patients population.
