Filter by:The study is funded through the Office of the Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC #KE-07-0044). The purpose of this study is two-fold. The first purpose is to see if routine monitoring of the level of HIV virus in the blood (viral load) every six months is superior to monitoring by standard clinical evaluations and or immune status (CD4 count) with intermittent viral load monitoring in adults receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). The second purpose is to understand the cost implications and possible benefits of routine HIV viral load monitoring.
This clinical study will investigate the relationships between sequential respiratory viral infections, patterns of intestinal and respiratory bacterial colonization, and adaptive cellular immune phenotypes which are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and long term respiratory morbidity in preterm and full term infants. This is a prospective, cohort study, enrolling at a single center via two sites (URMC and URMC-affiliated Highland Hospital and Rochester General Hospital). Enrollment will be accomplished in approximately 15 - 36 months. The study will enroll 280 subjects, 150 pre-term and 130 full-term.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of raltegravir (RAL) when given to HIV-1-exposed, normal birth weight newborn infants at risk of acquiring HIV-1 infection. (PK is the study of the time course of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs in the body.) The primary goal of this study was to determine a dose of RAL that was safe and met the PK targets for infants when administered during the first 6 weeks of life in addition to standard of care antiretroviral (ARV) agents for prevention of perinatal transmission.
The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL; NCT 01169259) is an ongoing randomized clinical trial in 25,875 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or omega-3 fatty acids (Omacor® fish oil, 1 gram) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and stroke in people who do not have a prior history of these illnesses. This ancillary study is being conducted among participants in VITAL and will examine whether vitamin D or omega-3 fatty acids affect risk of infection and plasma hCAP18 levels.
ADVANCE THERAPY ASPERGILLOSIS INVASIVE BY PCR DETECTION
The objective of this registry is to broaden the knowledge on epidemiology, diagnostic procedures and clinical course of emerging invasive fungal infections.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 12 weeks of treatment with ACH-0143102 and ribavirin in genotype 1b (GT1b), treatment-naive, hepatitis C virus (HCV) participants.
This is a study of safety and effectiveness of ceftaroline fosamil in children with Complicated Community-acquired Pneumonia receiving antibiotic therapy in the hospital.
The investigators aim to determine the complications and risk factors related with peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) and central venous catheters (CVCs) in cancer patients.
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).
