Filter by:Cohort 1: Subjects who had a Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) recurrence in study SERES-012 within 8 weeks of receipt of study drug will be eligible. The purpose of this cohort is to assess safety and efficacy of SER-109 in reducing recurrence of CDI in adults who had a CDI recurrence within 8 weeks after receipt of SER-109 or Placebo in study SERES-012. Cohort 2: Cohort 2 is an open-label program for subjects who were not part of SERES-012. The purpose of this cohort is to describe safety and tolerability of SER-109 in subjects 18 years of age or older with at least a first recurrence of CDI.
Subjects will receive an oral dose of SER-109 in 4 capsules once daily for 3 consecutive days in Treatment Group I or matching placebo once daily for 3 consecutive days in Treatment Group II. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of SER-109 vs placebo to reduce recurrence of CDI as determined by a toxin assay in adults up to 8 weeks after initiation of treatment.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of bezlotoxumab (MK-6072) in children aged 1 to <18 years of age with a confirmed diagnosis of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) who are receiving antibacterial drug treatment. The primary hypothesis is that the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf) of bezlotoxumab after treatment of pediatric participants with bezlotoxumab is similar when compared to the AUC0-inf of bezlotoxumab after treatment of adults with bezlotoxumab.
The purpose of this study is to compare UTI rates and patient satisfaction associated with indwelling Foley catheter verses a valved catheter in patients who are being discharged home with a catheter after urogynecologic procedures via a Randomized Clinical Trial.
This project aims to establish the correlation between intestinal microbiota with inflammatory biomarkers, intestinal morphology, vascular reactivity and degree of hepatic fibrosis in patients with different degrees of glucose tolerance and body adiposity.
Staphylococci represent the first etiologic agents of bone and joint infection (BJI), leading glycopeptides use, especially in case of methicillin-resistance or betalactam intolerance. Teicoplanin may represent an alternative to vancomycin because of its acceptable bone penetration and possible subcutaneous administration. Various studies have shown that teicoplanin pharmacodynamic profile was superior compared to vancomycin regarding bone diffusion. Few studies have investigated the use of teicoplanin in BJI, particularly through subcutaneous administration. The aim of this study assesses the efficacy and tolerance of teicoplanin in S. aureus BJI, especially focusing on subcutaneous use. This study is a retrospective single-center observational cohort study (2001 to 2011) including all consecutive patients managed at our institution receiving teicoplanin as part of S. aureus BJI treatment.
Staphylococcus aureus represents the leading pathogen implicated in bone and joint infection (BJI), usually requiring prolonged combination antimicrobial therapy, which may be particularly challenging in the case of MDR bacteria and/or for patients with multiple drug intolerance. In the absence of new well-tolerated oral antistaphylococcal drugs, older antibiotics must be considered, such as the pristinamycin. However, pristinamycin is not currently licensed for treatment of staphylococcal BJI and lack of clinical data prevents it from being considered as a reliable alternative therapeutic option in current guidelines. The aim of this study is to evaluate pristinamycin (efficacy and tolerance) in the treatment of MSSA bone and joint infection (BJI).
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of tedizolid phosphate (MK-1986) compared with comparator antibacterial agent in participants from birth to less than 12 years of age with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI).
This is a non-randomized, open-label, one-treatment, one group study in participants with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) including pyelonephritis to characterize the pharmacokinetics of RO7079901 co-administered with meropenem.
The aim of the study is to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of micafungin when prescribed for prophylaxis or treatment of fungal infections in different real-world clinical conditions and centers, in pediatric patients in Asia/Oceania.
