Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Vfend for the treatment of fungal infections
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of isavuconazole in the treatment of renally impaired participants with invasive fungal infections caused by Aspergillus and participants with invasive fungal disease caused by rare fungi.
This study will test the effectiveness and the safety of giving two antifungal agents (voriconazole and anidulafungin) together to treat invasive aspergillosis in patients who are unable to tolerate polyene therapy.
The goal of this study is to identify the immunological factors that influence a patient's response to the presence of the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) in the lungs. In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), this fungus is not known to cause damage to the lungs, but some patients respond with an allergic reaction that may cause wheeze, cough, or difficulty breathing. Approximately 230 patients will be enrolled with an additional 60 people who do not have CF and who do not have a history of asthma to serve as a comparison group.
This study compares the effectiveness and safety of the combination of anidulafungin and voriconazole compared to that of voriconazole alone (which is generally considered the standard of care) for the treatment of Invasive Aspergillosis.
- To assess the overall clinical yield - in terms of efficacy and safety endpoints of adding caspofungin as prophylaxis of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis in patients undergoing induction treatment for newly diagnosed acute leukemia - To investigate the prognostic significance of Ptx3 at diagnosis and during the first chemotherapy cycle with respect to the development of IPA
Fungal infections in immunocompromised patients occuring during construction activities in hospitals have repeatedly been reported. However, the question of a causal relation between construction activities and infections has never been addressed systematically and prospectively. To answer this question, we will monitor our immunosuppressed patients' health status, as well as fine dust and aspergillus spore contents in the air during a three year construction activity period in our hospital.
RATIONALE: Studying ways to diagnose fungal infections early may help doctors plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying laboratory tests to see how well they find aspergillosis early in patients at high risk of fungal infection caused by treatment for hematologic cancer or other disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the cut-off value of GM/G test in Chinese patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and evaluate GM/G test and real-time PCR for diagnosis of IFI in Chinese patients.
To evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of voriconazole + micafungin versus voriconazole alone as primary therapy for invasive aspergillosis.
