Filter by:This study aims to ensure that assays that measure drug concentrations are accurate and precise in different matrices when quantified using high performance liquid chromatography -tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The study involves collecting samples of various bodily fluids to quantify antimicrobials, antivirals, oral contraceptives and erectile dysfunction agents. Samples will also be obtained from individuals not receiving these medications for quality control purposes.
The purpose of the study is to explore the safety and efficacy of CLT-008 as an extra supportive care measure after induction chemotherapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
This study will determine the influence of doxycycline treatment against Wolbachia/M. perstans on immunity against concomitant mycobacterial infections in healthy M. perstans infected individuals. In this regard, the investigators will perform a community-based randomized controlled trial (Phase 2a) in Asante Akim North District. A cohort of 200 participants who are contacts of patients with Tuberculosis or Buruli ulcer, of both sexes with no clinical condition requiring long-term medication but connected with Mansonella perstans will be investigated for the effect of doxycycline on microfilaria, the immune response and development of mycobacterial disease.
A single-centre, open-label, study using induced blood stage malaria infection to characterize the activity of MMV390048 against early Plasmodium falciparum blood stage infection.
This is a double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RUT058-60 (Group A) as an intra-cavity lavage compared to sterile saline (Group B) in adult subjects undergoing abdominal surgery.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of a lock taurolidine-citrate solution vs standard saline solution for primary prevention of central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection in adult patients treated with intra-venous therapy for a solid tumor
Bacterial meningitis is a potentially life-threatening disease that is associated with substantial neurological morbidity and mortality. Accurate diagnosis is essential to improve outcome and prevent antibiotic overuse. Here we try to explore new biological markers for the diagnosis of the central nervous system infection disease.
Medtronic , Inc. is sponsoring the World-wide Randomized Antibiotic Envelope Infection Prevention Trial (WRAP-IT), a randomized, prospective, multi-center, single blinded, post-market, interventional clinical study. This study will evaluate the ability of the TYRX™ envelope to reduce major Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) infections through 12-months post-procedure following CIED generator replacement, upgrade, revision, or de novo cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implant. Additionally, this large device study provides the unique opportunity to prospectively characterize the performance of Medtronic's lead monitoring features in subjects whose CIED system includes a transvenous right ventricular (RV) defibrillation lead. Finally, the WRAP-IT study will serve as a post-approval study for those geographies requiring a post-approval study of the TYRX™ envelope.
Patients enrolled on this study will have received a stem cell transplant. After a transplant, while the immune system grows back the patient is at risk for infection. Some viruses can stay in the body for life, and if the immune system is weakened (like after a transplant), they can cause life-threatening infections. Adenovirus (AdV) is a virus that just causes symptoms of a common cold normally, but which can cause serious life-threatening infections in patients who have weak immune systems. It usually affects the lungs and can cause a very serious pneumonia, but it can also affect the gut, the liver, the pancreas and the eyes. Investigators want to see if they can use a kind of white blood cell called T cells to treat adenovirus infections that occur after a transplant. Investigators have observed in other studies that treatment with specially trained T cells has been successful when the cells are made from the transplant donor. However as it takes 1-2 months to make the cells, that approach is not practical when a patient already has an infection. Investigators have now generated AdV-specific T cells from the blood of healthy donors and created a bank of these cells. Investigators have previously successfully used frozen virus-specific T cell lines generated from healthy donors to treat virus infections after bone marrow transplant, and have now improved the production method and customized the bank of lines to specifically and exclusively target AdV. In this study, investigators want to find out if the banked AdV-specific T cells derived from healthy donors are safe and can help to treat adenoviral infection. The AdV-specific T cells (Viralym-A) are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Funding source - FDA OOPD
The purpose of the study is to compare the safety of intravenous (IV) and/or oral 6-day 200 mg tedizolid phosphate with 10-day comparator in participants 12 to <18 years with cSSTI.
