Filter by:Hypothesis Combination of Boceprevir with Ribavirin in treatment-naïve patients with genotype 4 chronic hepatitis C infection will increase the proportion of patients achieving sustained viral response compared to standard treatment alone.
The infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the first cause of congenital neurological handicap of infectious origin. It is probable that the néonatale viral load is correlated with becoming of infected new-born babies. Among the active antiviral treatments against CMV, valacyclovir is the only whose fœtal and maternal tolerance was evaluated during the pregnancy. Its harmlessness and its aptitude to decrease the CMV viral load justify to evaluate it in a study. Decrease the fœtal viral load could make possible to decrease symptomatology néonatale in a group of infected fœtuses.
The aim was to study whether probiotic intervention has an impact on seasonal occurrence of upper respiratory and gastrointestinal infections in two different conscript groups. In a randomised, double-blinded, placebo controlled study a total of 983 healthy adults were enrolled from two intakes of conscripts. Conscripts were randomised to receive either a probiotic combination of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis BB12 (BB12) or a control chewing tablet twice daily for 150 days (recruits) or for 90 days (reserve officer candidates). Clinical examinations were carried out and daily symptom diaries were collected. Outcome measures were the number of days with respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms and symptom incidence, number and duration of infection episodes, number of antibiotic treatments received and number of days out of service because of the infection. Statistically no significant differences were found between the intervention groups either in the risk of symptom incidence or duration. However, probiotic intervention was associated with reduction of specific respiratory infection symptoms in military recruits, but not in reserve officer candidates. Probiotics did not significantly reduce overall respiratory and gastrointestinal infection morbidity.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Phenazopyridine HCl Tablets, USP 200 mg as a short term analgesic treatment of pain upon urination associated with Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infections (uUTI). The secondary exploratory objective is to evaluate safety and efficacy of Phenazopyridine HCl Tablets, USP 200 mg as a short term analgesic treatment of burning upon urination associated with uUTI.
This is an international, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled evaluation valganciclovir treatment for up to 54 children (up to 4 years of age) with virologically-confirmed congenital CMV infection and hearing loss. Subject participation will be over a six-month period and study subjects will be stratified according to age. The primary objective is to assess whether a six-week course of oral valganciclovir can stabilize the hearing of children with congenital CMV infection who present with hearing loss.
For the development of a Point of Care IVD test kit for acute phase disease detection against a variety of bacterial and viral infections. Phase one includes 100 clinical diagnosed positive and 200 clinically "normal" serum and whole blood matched specimens for specificity and sensitivity determination for each marker. The positive samples must be IgM positive using any FDA cleared ELISA test kit. The negatives samples must be negative for IgM.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ceftaroline is effective and safe for the treatment of patients with Community-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia (CABP) at risk for infection due to Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
To Evaluate the Effects of Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Best Available Therapy in patients with complicated urinary tract infections and complicated intra-abdominal infections.
Endonase, a kind of protease, is known to cause both extensive degradation of mucins and a reduction in mucus viscosity. As part of the search for more effective forms of therapy against H. pylori when it colonizes not only the surface of the surface mucosal cells but also the surface mucous gel layer covering the mucosal surface of the stomach. The investigators decided to investigate whether or not endonase might have additive effect of pronase on the efficacy of the second-line eradication therapy against Helicobacter pylori.
The study is designed to select a dose of GSK1265744 primarily on the basis of antiviral activity and tolerability in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral naive subjects. This study consists of two parts: Induction Phase: Approximately 200 subjects will be randomized (50 subjects in each of the 4 treatment arms). The Induction Phase consists of a 24 week dose-ranging evaluation of GSK1265744 at blinded doses of 10 mg, 30 mg and 60 mg once-daily and a control arm of open-label efavirenz (EFV) 600 mg once daily. The background dual nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) antiretroviral therapy (ART) for all arms will be either abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) as selected by the Investigator. Subjects randomized to a GSK1265744 containing arm, who successfully complete 24 weeks on study and demonstrate virologic suppression (defined as having a plasma HIV-1 ribonucleic acid [RNA] <50 copies per milliliter [c/mL] before Week 24, with no signs of virologic rebound) will become eligible for the Maintenance Phase of this study. Maintenance Phase: The background NRTIs will be discontinued and the subjects will continue their randomized dose of GSK1265744 in combination with rilpivirine (RPV) 25 mg once-daily for an additional 72 weeks. The Maintenance phase will evaluate the ability of this two drug ART regimen to maintain virologic suppression through Week 48, Week 72 and Week 96. Subjects randomized to the EFV arm will continue on their randomized regimen through Week 96. After completion of the maintenance phase, subjects could enroll in the Open-Label Phase to continue GSK1265744 + RPV treatment as long as they continue to derive clinical benefit and until it is locally approved and commercially available.
