Adult patients with early stage MF-CTCL (stage IA-IB) will be eligible for this study. A total of 100 early stage MF-CTCL patients diagnosed in the past year will be enrolled. Treatment with CL gel will be applied once daily to all skin areas affected by MF-CTCL and, for 8 weeks, one selected skin area unaffected by MF-CTCL (0.5% body surface area) until treatment response (complete response), study treatment duration completed (56 weeks), progression, or another withdrawal criterion is met. Depending on the type of skin drug-related reaction (if any) occurring after application of CL gel, this study will categorize patients into three different groups corresponding to three different treatment patterns: - Group A: Patients with no skin drug reaction with CL gel application - Group B: Patients developing a skin drug reaction of any grade with CL gel application, not due to allergic reaction to CL gel, will continue treatment at reduced application frequency - Group C: Patients from Group B unable to tolerate reduced CL gel application frequency will apply a potent topical steroid twice daily in addition to CL gel applied every other day
The pathogeneses of many inflammatory diseases are not completely understood, yet, dysregulation of the human microbiota is increasingly being investigated as a possible contributing factor. The human microbiota includes bacteria, archaea, viruses and fungi. In general, little is known about the fungal colonization in inflammatory skin diseases. This study aims to examine the prevalence of microbiome in skin and oral mucosa of a variety of patients and healthy volunteers visiting the Dermatological outpatient clinic. The study is designed as a case-control study comparing the incidence of colonization or infection in skin and oral mucosa of patients with different skin diseases and healthy volunteers. Patients with selected skin diseases, staff at Zealand University Hospital in Roskilde, relatives to staff and students with relation to the Dermatologic Department will be asked to fill out a short questionnaire and have swaps taken from oral mucosa, as well as skin scrapings and tape strips from lesional skin (only patients) and non-lesional skin (all).
This study will be a multicenter, international, randomized, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group, double-blinded study. Subjects who are eligible to participate with a confirmed diagnosis of Distal Subungual onychomycosis (DSO) of the toenail will be randomized and participate in one of the following treatment groups: BB2603-1: 0.01% terbinafine/0.03% polyhexanide formulation, or BB2603-3: 0.03% terbinafine/0.09% polyhexanide formulation, or BB2603-10: 0.1% terbinafine/0.3% polyhexanide formulation, or Vehicle: 0.3% polyhexanide/20% ethanol/water formulation. The subject in each treatment group will be treated twice daily (BID) for 12 weeks and then complete a 28-day post-treatment visit.
Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome (MF/SS) are cancers that form in the T cells, a type of white blood cell that helps with the body's immune response. A combination of drugs might be able to better treat these cancers than existing therapies. Objective: To test if the drugs interleukin-15 (IL-15) and mogamulizumab are safe and effective to treat people with Adult T-Cell Leukemia and Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome (ATLL or MF/SS). Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed ATLL or MF/SS that has not responded to at least one standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood (including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C), urine, lung, and heart tests Bone marrow tests (if needed): A needle inserted in the participants hip will take a small amount of marrow. Computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Tumor biopsy (if needed): A needle will take out a small piece of the participants tumor. Participants will get the study drugs by vein for up to six 28-day cycles. They will get IL-15 the first 5 days of each cycle. They will get mogamulizumab on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 15 of the other cycles. They will be hospitalized for 1 week in cycle 1. They may need to get a midline catheter. This is a soft tube put into a vein leading to the heart. Participants will have repeats of the screening tests throughout the study. After treatment, participants will have visits every 60 days for 6 months, every 90 days for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 2 years.
This is a Phase 1, open-label study to evaluate the drug-drug interaction potential of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (itraconazole) and a pan-CYP inducer (rifampin) on APX001 in two parallel groups of healthy subjects.
Early treatment of invasive fungal infections (IFI) may prevent undue mortality in acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. We aim to study the impact of early empiric treatment (based on clinical suspicion) of IFI as compared to pre-emptive treatment (based on biomarkers and culture positivity) on the outcomes in ACLF patients with suspected IFI in a randomized trial. The ACLF patients with clinically suspected IFI would be randomly allocated to empiric treatment or pre-emptive treatment group and followed up clinically to assess the impact on survival, clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness and safety of such an approach. The protocol is designed to cut- down unnecessary usage and to curtail the duration of antifungals use in ICUs based on biomarkers/culture-driven stoppage rules. The results will fuel further studies on formal cost-effective analysis and antimicrobial stewardship protocols in ACLF patients.
The pharmacokinetics of fluconazole are expected to be different in obese patients compared to non-obese patients. The investigators will determine fluconazole and free fluconazole concentrations in 16 obese patients and 8 healthy volunteers, who will receive oral and intravenous fluconazole in a semi-simultaneous design. A full pharmacokinetic curve will be obtained until 48 hours after intravenous administration.
Candida auris is emerging fungal opportunistic pathogen in developing countries. Much studies has been conducted on Candida albicans. there was a dire need to investigate this alarming threat. Our hypothesis is that by recording the patients diagnosed with oropharygneal candidiasis and collecting clinical swab samples from these patients will be fruitful if microbiological isolation, identification and molecular characterization will be done. So this is the first study on C. auris in south punjab, Pakistan. Aim of this study is to collect epidemiological data of C. auris.
In this pilot study, pembrolizumab will be administered via DoseConnect in patient with relapsed or refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma to assess through pharmacodynamic assessment in the tumor tissue to assess if lymphatic delivery of pembrolizumab using Sofusa DoseConnect is feasible.
