Filter by:This observational study is designed to evaluate the reported outcomes for patients receiving topical therapy for the treatment of pain, fungal infections or skin scars. The patients will complete the Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) survey monthly and provide valuable data on the patients perception of their health status and well being while receiving therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of oral posaconazole tablets in Chinese participants at high risk for invasive fungal infections. Neutropenic participants undergoing chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes will be enrolled in the study.
The main goal of this study is to see how the body breaks down an antifungal drug named posaconazole in children with certain cancers, blood disorders, or transplantation of bone marrow or similar blood cells. This study will also help us learn whether a child's age, genetics, or disease affect how well the body breaks down posaconazole.
This study will examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of NVXT in a new formulation in patients with mild-to-moderate fungal infection of the toe nail.
This study looks at the efficacy of Doxycycline for the treatment of Cutaneous T-cell Lymphomas.
It is hypothesized that implementing plasma CrAg screening in clinics providing routine HIV care will enable identification of Vietnamese adult patients with advanced HIV (CD4 ≤100 cells/μL) who have early cryptococcal disease, enable prompt preemptive treatment with high-dose fluconazole, and improve survival.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the newly developed biosensor can be used to detect and quantify fungal cells in human blood samples.
Comparison of methotrexate versus interferon-alfa 2b on efficacy, safety and quality of life in patients with primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas after failure of topical or phototherapy treatment.
Fungal infections could play a role in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patient's exacerbations and in lung function impairment. In fact, Aspergillus fumigatus is often isolated from respiratory samples, but few data are available about its clinical significance. Aspergillus colonization could be associated to a higher risk of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), which, in COPD patients, is characterized by a 2% incidence (probably underestimated) and a high mortality (72 to 95%). Similarly, detection of anti-Aspergillus antibodies is quite frequent in COPD patients but its significance and usefulness for aspergillosis diagnosis and follow-up have not been assessed. Furthermore, several studies suggest a frequent carriage of Pneumocystis jirovecii, reaching 37-55%, with a higher frequency in the most severe COPD stages and a possible role of colonisation in the occurrence and progression of COPD. As these colonization and sensitization phenomena could be related to domestic exposure to airborne or, for P. jirovecii, to human reservoirs, the investigators set-up a study in order to (i) Evaluate how domestic exposure to mould or to P. jirovecii could impact fungal colonization and sensitization frequency in COPD patients, (ii) Study the relationship between these fungal colonization/sensitization phenomena and lung function impairment in the course of COPD and (iii) Have a better understanding of mould and P. jirovecii circulation in the close environment of patients (between airborne, human reservoirs and patients). In fine, this study will provide data (i) On fungal contamination levels (species and conidia concentration) of COPD patient's homes in a French region, (ii) On the relationship between fungal exposure level and colonization/sensitization phenomena, (iii) On the role of fungal colonization/sensitization in lung function impairment, (iv) To design diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive options for the management of COPD patients, taking into account fungal environmental exposure and colonization/sensitization impact on the evolution of the disease.
MALDI-TOF MS is capable of directly identifying bacteria and fungi in positive blood cultures, which may be beneficial to patient management. Therefore, MALDI-TOF MS is an important new technology that is becoming routine in developed countries. It is currently unknown whether MALDITOF MS improves diagnostics, costs and patient outcomes in developing countries. This study will assess the clinical impact of a MALDITOF MS system (Maldi Biotyper, Bruker, Germany) in the resource constrained setting of Vietnam and at what cost.
