Filter by:Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a group of diseases resulting from clonal hyperplasia of memory T cells in the skin. The increasing incidence and high treatment costs have posed significant challenges to public health and the economy. Current treatment guidelines only provide partial control, leading to varying remission times and recurrence rates. This study aims to use molecular subtyping and immunohistochemistry to guide treatment selection for CTCL patients, aiming to prolong clinical benefit, improve treatment safety, and reduce economic burden.
The EAP is intended to provide a treatment option for patients with proven or probable serious or life-threatening invasive fungal infection (in accordance with the EORTC-MSGERC criteria) who have exhausted their treatment options, primarily due to an infection with a resistant fungal pathogen, and for whom no other treatment options are available through marketed drugs or investigational agents in clinical studies ongoing in the respective indication.
Chlormethine is a topical alkylating agent whose role in MF-CTCL has been extensively studied over the last 40 years. While its efficacy is well established, many safety concerns have been raised due to high rates of delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity to aqueous solutions that limit the prolonged use of chlormethine in clinical practice. It has been shown that complete response to topical chlormethine is associated with lower risk of disease progression. Accordingly, clinical data from the investigators' clinic confirm that chlormethine gel is a safe and effective treatment, which be used in early and advanced stages of cutaneous lymphomas. Based investigators' clinical and biological results , the investigators like to further investigate the change in the percentage as well as the profile of malignant and inflammatory cells by CyTOF analysis and further investigate the pathways (eg OX40, PDL1) involved in this process.
Patients with documented onychomycosis of one or more toe nails will be treated with a daily application of a topical lacquer containing several essential oils.
The incidence of fungal infection has increased dramatically over the past few decades.This is due to increase in survival rates of preterm neonates, advances in medical technology and drug therapy, broad spectrum antibiotics and parenteral nutrition . The resistance to antifungal agents has increased. This study will assess the efficacy of micafungin versus amphotericin B in neonates with positive fungal culture.
Primary objective To document the occurrence of fungal infections during the early stages of chemotherapy (from onset to TP2, i.e., week 16) in adult Ph-neg ALL patients Secondary objectives - To document the occurrence of IFI in relation to antifungal prophylaxis adopted - To document the occurrence of IFI in relation to the age of the patients - Document the occurrence of IFI in relation to the duration of neutropenia - Document the occurrence of IFI in relation to the type of steroid treatment adopted (dexamethasone yes vs no) - Document any delays in the initiation of consolidation chemotherapy in LLA patients with IFI - Document the outcome of patients with ALL with IFI Study design The study is prospective and observational, multicenter, real-life study involving 26 centers afferent to the SEIFEM group. All Ph-neg ALL patients aged 18 years or older treated with intensive chemotherapy starting from 01.06.22 for the duration of 18 months (+12 months follow-up) will be enrolled. The diagnosis of IFI will be defined according to EORTC 2019 criteria. Clinical information will be collected in paper CRFs, compiled anonymously. The incidence of IFI and pulmonary aspergillosis during induction chemotherapy will be related to the following variables: - Age - Sex - Type of AF prophylaxis performed - LLA risk classification according to ESMO 2016 criteria - Dose of dexamethasone administered - Duration of neutropenia - Hematologic and molecular response
Large doses of systemic corticosteroids ，severe lung tissue damage and longer COPD diagnosis may increase the risk of IPA in patients with chronic structural lung disease. By comparing the risk factors of aspergillus colonization group and aspergillus infection group, the main risk factors of aspergillus pneumonia were determined.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm study, that aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of amphotericin B cholesterol-sulfate complex (ABCD) for injection in the first-line treatment of patients with invasive fungal diseases, hoping to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of invasive fungal diseases. Patients with hematologic diseases who meet the criteria for inclusion and discharge with febrile neutropenia and suspected fungal infection were treated with ABCD antifungal therapy for 14 days while receiving treatment for underlying diseases, and the response rate of treatment was observed.
The goal of this survey is to learn about the current status of the diagnosis and treatment of invasive fungal infections among intensive care physicians in Sichuan Province (IFS). Its primary focus lies on answering the following questions: ①awareness and proficiency in diagnosis and treatment; ②the use of antifungal medications; ③the application of microbiological identification and diagnostic methods. We aim to analyze the problems and deficiencies that existed among intensive care physicians in order to provide a basis for the development of targeted training and intervention measures.
Brief Research Proposal: Non-Invasive Detection of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis in ICU Patients Background: Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis (IPA) is a critical threat to patients in ICUs, especially those undergoing mechanical ventilation. Traditional diagnostic methods are invasive and carry risks. This study proposes a non-invasive, innovative approach utilizing galactomannan (GM) analysis in Exhaled Breath Condensate (EBC) for early IPA detection. Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of measuring GM levels in EBC for detecting IPA in mechanically ventilated patients, comparing it against the conventional Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF)-GM measurements. Methods: A clinical trial will be conducted with 75 mechanically ventilated patients suspected of having IPA. The study will compare the effectiveness of EBC-GM levels against BALF-GM levels in diagnosing IPA, focusing on sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy. The novel, self-designed EBC collection device will facilitate the safe and efficient collection of EBC from patients. Expected Outcomes: Validation of EBC-GM Diagnostic Accuracy: Anticipate demonstrating that EBC-GM levels provide a comparable diagnostic accuracy to BALF-GM, establishing a non-invasive, safer alternative for IPA detection. Implementation of a Non-Invasive Diagnostic Tool: The study aims to introduce a non-invasive diagnostic approach that can potentially replace more risky, invasive methods, improving patient care in ICUs. Contribution to Clinical Practice: By providing a new method for early and safer detection of IPA, the study is expected to influence clinical guidelines and practices in the management of critically ill, ventilated patients. Significance: This research has the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis of fungal infections in critically ill patients by offering a non-invasive, accurate, and safer diagnostic tool, thereby improving patient outcomes and reducing the risks associated with invasive diagnostic procedures.
