Filter by:The purpose is to study superior efficacy of combination of Natamycin and Lactulose (Natamycin 100 mg + Lactulose 300 mg vaginal suppositories) compared to Pimafucin (Natamycin 100 mg vaginal suppositories), or Lactulose 300 mg vaginal suppositories. The second objective of the study was to investigate the safety of the combination suppositories in the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis in non-pregnant adult females.
Female-specific health conditions are underrepresented in research. The taboo felt by women to talk about intimate wellbeing is fed by this gender gap in scientific knowledge. This project aims to meet these needs by studying one of the most prevalent female-specific infections, vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), and paving the way towards its efficient diagnosis and treatment. About 70% of women worldwide suffer from vaginal candidiasis at least once in their life. An episode of this fungal infection is accompanied by a burning sensation, pain, and reduced mental well-being. Some women (about 5%) encounter such infections at least four times a year, referring to recurrent(R) VVC. The design of efficient diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for (R)VVC is hindered by a knowledge gap surrounding vaginal health. To meet the absolute need for more information, this project will characterize the role of the microbiome, metabolome, immune system, and pathogen characteristics in (R)VVC. To this end, a large sampling platform of women with/without VVC will be established in this project. The researchers will identify the most important and clinically relevant microorganisms, metabolites, and immune factors in VVC pathogenesis. VVC models will be developed and optimized, which will be used to validate the causality of the correlations identified in the cohort. Identified correlations will be proposed as biomarkers, and microbes, metabolites, and combinations, which effectively lower the pathogenicity of Candida species, will be further investigated for therapeutic potential. State-of-the-art tools and know-how of the researchers will allow the unraveling of the involved molecular pathways and elucidate how these can be exploited to optimize therapeutic efficacy. Finally, the knowledge gathered in this project will be used to improve the literacy of women on VVC using platforms established by the researchers as well as novel tools to be developed in this project.
We has proposed to conduct a national epidemiological study on the pathogenic strains and high risk factors of Vulvovaginal Candidiasis in China , and conduct drug resistance analysis.
In this study, the pentavalent bioconjugate candidate vaccine (Candi5V) against Candida will be tested to obtain first-time-in-human (FTIH) data on its safety, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy in women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis.
Efficacy and safety of two new formulations compared to Gynomax® XL ovule in the treatment of trichomonal vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis, candidal vulvovaginitis and mixed vaginal infections was evaluated in this randomized, three-arms, multicentral study.
Purpose: In the study, it was aimed to determine the effect of genital hygiene training provided to women living in rural areas with a vulvovaginal candidiasis history on genital hygiene behaviors and self-care agency. Material and methods: This study with a randomized controlled design was conducted with the participation of women who were registered to Family Health Centers located in two villages in the rural areas in the east of Turkey and who had a history of vulvovaginal candidiasis within the last year. The study sample consisted of 114 women in total, 57 of whom were in the intervention group and 57 were in the control group. The women in the intervention group were provided with genital hygiene behaviors training. The study data were collected Identifying Information Form, Genital Hygiene Behavior Inventory (GHBI), and Self-Care Agency Scale (SCAS).
This is an ongoing evaluation of subjects exposed to ibrexafungerp while pregnant. The study population will include pregnant women of any age.
Vaginitis is one of the most common gynecological problems in women. Candida albicans is responsible for more than 85% of vaginal fungal infections and reinfection after standard treatment is quite common. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of a zinc-containing vaginal gel and oral fluconazole on the treatment and recurrence of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC). The investigator's hypothesis is that zinc-containing vaginal gel may decrease the rate of reinfection after standard treatment with oral 150 mg fluconazole.
With the knowledge that VVC is an infectious disease of the genitourinary tract that is common in women of reproductive age, and because of the shortage of non-drug therapies for this condition, this study will aim to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet A/blue LED with a wavelength of 401 ± 5 nm in patients with a clinical manifestation of candidiasis and its ability to prevent recurrence.
This project aims to investigate if the contraceptive method, Phexxi, causes changes to the composition of the vaginal microbiome. The investigators hypothesize that regular use of Phexxi will cause increased colonization of lactic acid-producing lactobacilli, which could have positive effects in the way of preventing recurrent episodes of BV and candida infections.
