Filter by:The purpose of this study was to support the selection of a safe and tolerable tobramycin inhalation powder (TIP) dose, and regimen that exhibits effective bacterial reduction of P. aeruginosa in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (BE) patients with P. aeruginosa colonization.
This study is conducted to investigate whether the efficacy of single-dose triple therapy (Esomeprazole 40 mg, Tinidazole 1 g, and Levofluxacine 500 mg) for 14 days is superior to double-dose lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g and clarithromycin 500 mg for 14 days in the treatment of H pylori infection.
The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate the incidence of congenital CMV infection in neonates, and assess the concordance of detecting congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in neonatal saliva and urine samples.
This is a phase 2a study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of CMX157 at increasing dose levels.
Among antibiotic-resistant organisms, the Gram-negative bacteria are now the most important challenge because of the rapid worldwide spread of mechanisms conferring resistance to multiple drugs. The most recent and worrying problem is the emergence and spread of carbapenemases. Additionally, carbapenem-resistance is known to be very frequent among Acinetobacter baumannii isolates for many years. Overall, the therapeutic options available against carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and A. baumannii (CRAB) are very limited. The best available treatment (BAT) against CRE is unknown, which is a challenge for therapeutic decisions and also for the design of randomized trials with new drugs. The generic objectives of EURECA are to obtain high-quality observational data to inform the design of randomized controlled trials for complicated intraabdominal infections, pneumonia, complicated urinary tract infections and bloodstream infections due to Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobater baumannii, and to provide cohort data that could eventually be used as historical controls for future comparisons with new drugs targeting CRE. This will be achieved by a prospective, multinational cohort study of patients with targeted infections due to CRE and CRAB, and by matched case-control-control studies.
This study will evaluate efficacy of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) and safety and tolerability of switching to elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) or emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/R/TAF) from the current antiretroviral (ARV) therapy and in virologically-suppressed, HIV-1/HCV co-infected participants.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of diagnostic algorithm for urinary tract infection (UTI) on appropriate prescribing of antibiotics and use of diagnostics for patients with symptoms of urinary tract infection consulting their general practitioner. 70 general practices participating in an observational study regarding UTI are randomized to either receiving a diagnostic algorithm or not receiving anything additional. The study is observational on the patient level and interventional on the practice level.
Multicenter prospective cohort study in Chlamydia trachomatis positive women after regular treatment to understand the transmission of anorectal CT infections.
The IDIS study aims to develop a new rapid diagnostic test for invasive salmonellosis using samples (blood, urine) collected from patients with fever and healthy controls at the Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM) and collaborating centers. The samples are collected after informed consent and/or assent is given by the participant and are stored in a -80 ⁰C freezer after processing (centrifugation and/or aliquoting). Basic information regarding the patient and the samples are coded and stored in a protected Microsoft Access database. The samples will be shipped to Belgium for proteomic analysis. Identification of Salmonella specific proteins in the samples will hopefully support the development of a rapid diagnostic test. Once this test has been developed, the samples will also be used for validation and evaluation of this test.
Acinetobacter species have emerged as agents of serious nosocomial infections in critically ill patients. Only a few effective antibiotics are currently available for the treatment of this pathogen and, therefore, sulbactam is being considered as an alternative treatment option. The aims of this study were to i) reveal the population pharmacokinetics and ii) assess the probability of target attainment (PTA) of sulbactam in septic critically ill patients caused by Acinetobacter spp. infections. The study was conducted in septic critically ill patients caused by Acinetobacter spp. Each patient received 2 g every 12 h of sulbactam for 10 days, after which PK studies were carried out on day 4 of sulbactam therapy and a Monte Carlo simulation was performed to determine the probability of attaining a specific pharmacodynamic target.
