Filter by:Non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pulmonary disease (PD) is an emerging condition with heterogeneous manifestations from both the microbiological and the clinical point of view. Diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines are available but there are still unmet patients' and physicians' needs, including the exams to perform in the nutritional evaluation and intervention to improve health-related QoL and to control gastrointestinal side-effects during antimicrobial therapy, particularly in those with low body mass index and history of weight loss.
Develop an emergency PanorOmics Wide Association Study (ePWAS) for the early, rapid biological and pathophysiological characterisation of known and novel Infectious Diseases in adult patients presenting to emergency departments with suspected, acute, community-acquired respiratory infectious disease (scaRID). Phase 1 1. Develop an ED-ID biobank (named ePWAS-RID). Phase 2 2. Targeted research for the discovery of novel diagnostics, prognostics and therapeutics
Based on the collected antibiotic concentration data and individual patient's clinical information, a pharmacokinetic analysis report that can be applied for dose adjustment of the individual patient is provided. The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic index using the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of the antibiotic obtained from the patient's clinical isolate is also explored. Utilizing these, we intend to establish a population pharmacokinetic model of antibiotics prescribed in treating Tuberculosis and Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). The developed population pharmacokinetic model can be applied for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) based on dose adjustment through the obtained pharmacokinetic parameters.
The SALINE trial will investigate the effect of Hypertonic Saline inhalation plus best supportive care on burden of symptoms, clearance of mycobacteria and functional capacities in participants with Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease and compare the effect to treatment with best supportive care alone.
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasingly common and have a poor prognosis: 5-year mortality can reach 40 to 50%, depending on the type of mycobacteria and the immune system of the host involved. Cancer patients are at higher risk of infectious morbidity and mortality, which may be due to disease-related immune dysfunction, immunosuppressive effects of chemotherapy, or long-term placement of a vascular catheter. However, data on the treatment of NTM species that cause infections and the disease characteristics of these pathogens in cancer patients are limited despite the growing cancer population worldwide. Recently, M. avium infections have been described in patients suffering from cancers (hematological or not), in particular in patients receiving checkpoint inhibitors. Although the proportion of M. avium pneumonia in retrospective series is low (0.8-2%), it has been shown that this population is younger, suffers less from sub-pulmonary pathology. (indicating immunosuppression in these patients) but are therefore treated less than non-cancerous subjects. This retrospective study in CHU Amiens is searching on the number of side effects of NTM treatment in two groups (cancerous and no cancerous) to assess the cause of the decrease of NTM treatment in cancerous patients.
The MAC-HS study is a testing whether hypertonic saline helps improve symptoms and clearance of mycobacteria in patients with M. avium complex lung infections.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ALIS (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension) + background regimen (azithromycin [AZI] + ethambutol [ETH]) compared to the ELC (empty liposome control) + background regimen on participant-reported respiratory symptoms at Month 13.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bedaquiline (BDQ) compared with rifamycin when administered as part of a treatment regimen with clarithromycin (CAM) and ethambutol (EB) in adult participants with treatment-refractory Mycobacterium avium complex-lung disease (MAC-LD) at Week 24 for microbiological assessment in mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT).
This is a randomized, double blind, two arms, placebo controlled, clinical trial to study to evaluate the the safety and efficacy of Mycobacterium w in combination with standard of care versus placebo with standard of care for preventing the progression of COVID-19 disease and for reduction in transfer to ICU in COVID-19 infected patients admitted to the hospital.
This clinical trial is a randomized, blinded, two arms, placebo controlled, clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Mycobacterium w in combination with standard care as per hospital practice to prevent COVID 19 in subjects at risk of getting infected with COVID 19.
