Filter by:Invasive filamentous fungal infections (aspergillosis, scedosporiosis, mucormycosis, fusarium wilt) are frequent and serious in immunocompromised individuals and especially in organ transplant patients. There is little recent data in liver transplantation, especially on the incidence and risk factors of fungal infections
The purpose of this study is to identify the number of individuals with severe CoVID who require ventilator support and who develop serious fungal infections. The study is an observational study, meaning that we are not providing any intervention that does not involve usual standard of care. Our chief goal is to find evidence of fungal infection by using traditional, approved methods of diagnosis, but by applying these methods in the same way and frequency among all study participants. We will be looking especially for evidence of a fungal infection known as Aspergillus, which can causes a serious lung infection called invasive aspergillosis (IA).
This is a single-center, open-label, non-randomized, single dose study in healthy male subjects. It was planned to enroll 2 cohorts of 5 subjects (10 subjects in total), with the target of achieving data in 4 evaluable subjects per cohort. Five subjects were to receive a single oral dose of APX001 and not more than (NMT) 3.1 megabecquerel (MBq) (84.0 microcurie [μCi]) 14C in the fed state. Five subjects were to receive a single IV administration containing APX001 and NMT 3.4 MBq (93.0 μCi) 14C in the fed state.
Predictors of fungal infection in non-neutropenic patients in intensive care units and the aim of the study is To evaluate the frequency of fungal infection in non-neutropenic patients in Intensive Care Units. To evaluate the risk factors of fungal infection in these patients.
Rationale: Beside Candida and Aspergillus, emerging invasive fungal infections (EIFIs) are increasing in intensive care setting and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. However, data are scarce, particularly in ICU settings and for EIFIs other than mucormycosis. Objectives: to describe epidemiological trends and clinical features of EIFIs in intensive care units (ICU) and to assess their outcome. Methods: All records of adult patients diagnosed with an EIFI in a medical ICU between 2006 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. In-ICU mortality was assessed, then factors associated with mortality were identified. Survival at day-90 was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
This study is investigating the role of allergic (Th2) inflammation in patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and history of fungal infection and/or Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis. Little is known about fungal infection in CF and conflicting results exist on whether this results in worse lung function over time. There is concern that persistent fungal infection can result in worse clinical outcome measures in patients with CF. Also, it is unclear how ABPA develops, but may be related to the amount of fungus a patient with CF is infected with. This study looks at inflammatory patterns and allergic responses to fungal elements to help identify biomarkers and signs of allergic disease in fungally infected patients with CF.
The purpose of this pivotal study is to determine if intravenous Rezafungin is efficacious and safe in the prevention of invasive fungal diseases when compared to the standard antimicrobial regimen.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, single-centre, non-randomised study to evaluate the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of an oral solution of [14C]-ibrexafungerp following administration in healthy male subjects. Each subject will receive a single dose of [14C]-ibrexafungerp and will be followed for up to 20 days. During this period total radioactivity will be measured in blood, urine and faeces.
This is single arm study to evaluate an escalation anti-fungal prophylaxis protocol for patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation. For all patients without documented proven or probable invasive fungal disease (IFD), patients will receive fluconazole during the treatment in the laminar air flow units (LAF). After discharged from LAF units, patients will receive anti-mold prophylaxis in case of haplo-identical or HLA-matched unrelated donor transplantation to d+100 without active acute GVHD (aGVHD). In case of active aGVHD, the prophylaxis treatment will be extended until recovery of aGVHD and tapering of immunosuppression. In case of HLA-matched sibling donor, fluconazole will be continued to d+100 and anti-mold prophylaxis will be given in case of active aGVHD.
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).
