Filter by:The combination of acute phase marker monitoring and the "T2Candida" assay (name of the test) will represent an acceleration of the identification of the causative agent of mycotic infection, a significant improvement in the specificity and positive predictive value of this strategy in the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis and candidemia in ICU patients, thereby improving the clinical condition of patients and reducing the cost of specific antifungal therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare antifungal therapy duration in pediatric uncomplicated candidemia. The specific aims are: - Compare the desirability of outcome ranking in children with uncomplicated candidemia randomized to 7 additional days of antifungal therapy (standard-course) versus no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) after already receiving 7 days of echinocandin therapy. - Compare the 14-day desirability of outcome measure for subjects with a negative and those with a positive T2Candida® biomarker at day 7 of therapy within randomized groups. Participants meeting eligibility criteria will be approached and consented between day 5 and 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy. On day 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy, inclusion and exclusion criteria will again be reviewed for consented patients and those still eligible will be randomized 1:1 to the two study arms. Researchers will compare no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) versus 7 additional days of systemic antifungal therapy (standard-course) in pediatric patients with uncomplicated candidemia who have already received 7 days of primary systemic antifungal therapy to see if shorter durations are as effective as longer durations in treating uncomplicated candidemia.
This is a multi-center, open-label, non-controlled, single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the safety, efficacy and population pharmacokinetics of Amphotericin B cholesteryl Sulfate Complex for Injection domestic formulations (ABCD) in the treatment of confirmed invasive candidiasis (IC) and confirmed/clinically diagnosed invasive aspergillus (IA) disease.
A randomized, single-dose, two-way crossover study to evaluate bioequivalence of two formulations of micafungin (50 mg/vial) after intravenous infusion of 50 mg micafungin in healthy volunteers under fasting conditions
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 an open, multicenter clinical trial of ABCD for invasive candidiasis and invasive aspergillosis.
EPICA-1 is a multicenter, open label, interventional study which will involve about 30 Internal Medicine Units throughout Italy, enrolling globally at least 100 hospitalised patients with suspicion of invasive candidiasis. These patients will be treated with an echinocandin (micafungin) as timely as possible, and they will continue the antifungal treatment according to international guidelines when diagnosis is confirmed by positive 1,3-β-D-glucan test: this will allow collection of information on patients outcome. At the same time, patients will be also evaluated by means of blood culture, so that comparison will be possible between the two diagnostic tests (primary end-point of the study).
Empirical antifungal therapy (EAT) is frequently prescribed to septic critically ill patients with risk factors for invasive Candida infections (ICI). However, among patients without subsequent proven ICI, antifungal discontinuation is rarely performed, resulting in unnecessary antifungal overuse. The investigators postulate that the use of fungal biomarkers could increase the percentage of early discontinuation of EAT among critically ill patients suspected of ICI, as compared with a standard strategy, without negative impact on day 28-mortality. To test this hypothesis, the investigators designed a randomized controlled open-label parallel-group study.
This is a multicenter, open label, non-comparator, single arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrexafungerp (SCY-078) in patients ≥ 18 years of age with a documented fungal disease that has been intolerant or refractory (rIFI) to Standard of Care (SoC) antifungal treatment.
This is a prospective case-control physiopathological study, which main objective is to determine the genetic host factors predisposing to candidemia. Secondary objectives are to develop new diagnosis tools using the biological collection, to describe and update epidemiology, to analyse the influence of genetic polymorphisms on prognosis.
