Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to assess the preventive vaccine efficacy (VE), safety and tolerability of a heterologous prime/boost regimen utilizing Ad26.Mos4.HIV and aluminum-phosphate adjuvanted Clade C gp 140 for the prevention of Human Immuno Virus (HIV) infection in HIV-seronegative women residing in sub-Saharan Africa from confirmed HIV-1 infections diagnosed between the Month 7 and Month 24 visits.
This is a 1:1 randomized double-blind Placebo-controlled moncenter Phase IV study to investigate whether a successful interferon-free treatment of HCV-infection with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) in combination with dasabuvir (DSV) improves the patients' attention ability as compared to placebo as measured with the Att Test Sum Score change from baseline to week 12. A total of 30 patients with non-cirrhotic genotype 1b HCV infection will be randomly assigned to receive 12 weeks verum followed by 12 weeks Placebo (arm A) versus 12 weeks Placebo followed by 12 weeks verum (arm B). Patients will be followed up for 48 weeks.
Transplant patients are at increased risk of colonization and infection with Multidrug Resistant Organisms (MDROs) due to medications that modify their immune systems, increased healthcare and antibiotic exposure, and surgical manipulation of mucosa. In this study, kidney transplant patients who have infections with resistant bacteria will be given a Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT), also known as a fecal transplant, after they receive antibiotic treatment. This study will see if FMT will eliminate the resistant bacteria so that the kidney transplant patients do not have to use last resort antibiotics. This Phase 1 pilot study is to obtain preliminary safety data for FMT in renal transplant patients to support the rationale for a subsequent clinical trial, not to establish efficacy or toxicity. This trial is designed to test the safety of FMT, identify clinical outcomes, assess feasibility, and refine the target population in participants with MDRO colonization and intestinal dysbiosis. Data from this study should provide directions for the design of future clinical trials.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of UV-4B oral solution when administered to healthy subjects three times a day (TID) for 7 days.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of a single intravenous (IV) infusion dose of dalbavancin, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dalbavancin IV infusion.
This is a randomized, multicenter, 2-part, open-label trial of the combination regimen of grazoprevir (GZR [MK-5172]; 100mg), uprifosbuvir (UPR [MK-3682]; 450 mg) and ruzasvir (RZR [MK-8408]; 60 mg) with and without Ribavirin (RBV) in cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) participants infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) previously failing a direct-acting antiviral regimen (DAA). The combination regimen, referred to as MK-3682B, will be administered as two fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets, given once-daily. The study will evaluate the efficacy of MK-3682B with or without RBV as assessed by the proportion of participants achieving Sustained Virologic Response 12 weeks (SVR12) after the end of all study therapy.
This Registry will enroll adolescent and pediatric participants who received at least one Gilead Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) direct acting antiviral (DAA) while participating in a Gilead-sponsored chronic hepatitis C clinical trial. The primary objective of this Registry is to determine the long-term safety of anti-HCV regimens in the pediatric population. Secondary objectives of this Registry are to determine whether subsequent detection of HCV RNA in participants who relapse following sustained virologic response (SVR) represents the re-emergence of pre-existing virus, the development of resistance mutations, or whether it is due to re-infection, and to characterize resistance mutations and the persistence of resistance mutations in pediatric participants who did not achieve SVR. Once enrolled, participants will be followed for up to 5 years.
This is a medical research study designed to look at the safety and efficacy of 30-day course of fidaxomicin for treatment of recurrent CDI (Clostridium difficile Infection). CDI is an infection that results when the normal flora (resident bacteria) of the colon is substantially altered by antibiotic treatment. The decrease in this normal flora allows for the growth of the C. difficile bacteria. Fidaxomicin is an antibiotic which is approved by Health Canada for treatment of CDI. Only patients with a primary case of CDI or 1st episode of recurrent CDI have been studied using a 10-day course of fidaxomicin.
The purpose of this research is to determine if using the antibiotic vancomycin as a preventative topical (on the surface of the skin) treatment during open-heart surgery will reduce the risk of developing a sternal wound infection.
As increasing the antibiotics resistance, the effectiveness of traditional Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) therapies has been declined coincidentally. In this study, the investigators evaluated the efficacy of H. pylori eradication between a 7 days personalized therapy for H. pylori infection based on the results of antibiotics resistance by using H. pylori culture and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the 14 days bismuth contained quadruple 2nd rescue regimens, and the investigators analyzed the prevalence of the antibiotic resistance after 1st eradication of H. pylori in the tailored therapy group.
