Filter by:This was a prospective clinical study that all voriconazole-treated adult Chinese patients with invasive pulmonary infection admitted to Zhengzhou Central Hospital affiliated to Zhengzhou University from March 2018 to April 2020.
Background: Some T-cell lymphomas and leukemias do not respond to standard treatment. Researchers hope to develop a treatment that works better than current treatments. Objective: To test if interleukin (IL-5) combined with avelumab is safe and effective for treating certain cancers. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed T-cell leukemias and lymphomas for which no standard treatment exists or standard treatment has failed Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood, urine, heart, and lung tests - Possible tumor biopsy - Bone marrow biopsy: A small needle will be inserted into the hipbone to take out a small amount of marrow. - Computed tomography (CT) or positron emission tomography (PET) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. Participants will get the study drugs for 6 cycles of 28 days each. They will have a midline catheter inserted: A tube will be inserted into a vein in the upper chest. They will get Interleukin-15 (IL-5) as a constant infusion over the first 5 days of every cycle. They will get avelumab on days 8 and 22 of each cycle. They will be hospitalized for the first week of the first cycle. Participants will have tests throughout the study: - Blood and urine tests - Another tumor biopsy if their disease gets worse - Scans every 8 weeks - Possible repeat MRI - Another bone marrow biopsy at the end of treatment, if there was lymphoma in the bone marrow before treatment, and they responded to treatment everywhere else. After they finish treatment, participants will have visits every 60 days for the first 6 months. Then visits will be every 90 days for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 2 years. Visits will include blood tests and may include scans.
The purpose of this study is evaluating the efficacy and safety of generics caspofungin in the treatment of the patients with neutropenic and fever.Another purpose of this study is comparing the pharmacokinetic characteristics of generics caspofungin and original medicine(Cancidas®) for providing a basis for clinical rational administration.
The randomized control trial study aimed to evaluate effectiveness and safety of amphotericin B in 30% DMSO solution comparing with 30% DMSO solution in NDMs onychomycosis treatment.
A pilot study was performed to evaluate the appropriateness of the voriconazole dosing regimen based on the population pharmacokinetic model and the influence of sex on the pharmacokinetics of voriconazole
Invasive aspergillosis is a fungal infection which left untreated, is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Immunocompromised patient populations such as solid organ transplant and malignant hematology patients are especially susceptible to invasive fungal infections. Voriconazole is an anti-fungal agent that is frontline therapy for invasive aspergillosis. Treatment success is highly dependent on maintaining therapeutic voriconazole concentrations. The current published literature has established that treatment failure is associated with sub- and supra-therapeutic voriconazole concentrations. Maintaining therapeutic voriconazole concentrations however, is challenging due to the high inter and intra-patient variability in voriconazole pharmacokinetics. The complex kinetics of voriconazole renders current manufacturers' dosing guidelines ineffective. Much of this complexity has been linked to genetic polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 2C19 gene, and it has been found that CYP2C19 genotype plays an important role in determining voriconazole exposure levels. Therapeutic drug monitoring has been found to increase efficacy of voriconazole treatment through the monitoring of patients' voriconazole levels, allowing for dosage adjustments in response to supra- or sub-therapeutic levels. There are few robust studies that have examined the effect of CYP2C19 genotype on voriconazole treatment outcomes. They have been unable to determine relationships between CYP2C19 genetic status, and clinical efficacy and safety. No studies to our knowledge have made dosing adjustments based on CYP2C19 genetic status. The study aim is to explore the utility of voriconazole dosing that is based on the genetic status of the patient in conjunction with therapeutic drug monitoring. Over the course of one year, solid organ transplant recipients at Toronto General Hospital and malignant hematology patients at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre receiving voriconazole therapy will be randomized into one of two trial arms: a control arm receiving therapeutic drug monitoring only, or a treatment arm receiving genotype-specific dosing in conjunction with therapeutic drug monitoring. The investigators will compare the proportion of patients that achieve voriconazole therapeutic concentrations, the number of dose adjustments needed to achieve therapeutic voriconazole levels, and clinical outcomes between trial arms.
The intra-alveolar form of Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PjP) is a common pathology in immunocompromised patients, particularly those infected with HIV. The diagnosis is based on the detection of Pj in a LBA. Intra-tissue granulomatous form (PGP) is a rare entity observed in non-HIV immunocompromised patients. In this case, the LBA is mostly non-contributory and the diagnosis is based solely on the detection of cysts on histological examination on biopsy of a pulmonary nodule. For many years, it has been clearly demonstrated that the use of a specific PCR clearly improves the biological diagnosis of PcP. However, in case of granulomatous form this method is not implemented because the diagnostic hypothesis is not mentioned. In 2018, two cases of PGP were diagnosed at 3-month intervals at Montpellier University Hospital Center. The diagnostic confirmation was obtained with PCR Pj. In this context the investigators will investigate the interest of implementing PCR Pj on biopsies on pulmonary nodules from hospitalized patients between 2015 and 2018. In all selected patients, histopathological aspect of the nodule was compatible with a PGP and, no other diagnosis has been confirmed (infectious, tumoral, inflammatory ...). Finally, 17 patients were selected to check retrospectively, if the presence of Pj could be at the origin of the pathology.
The purpose of this pivotal study is to determine if intravenous Rezafungin is efficacious and safe in the treatment of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis when compared to caspofungin (followed by optional oral fluconazole).
A retrospective, post-marketing, multi-center chart review study includes patients who had been prescribed Ampholipad.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of single intravenous of Amphotericin B Colloidal Dispersion(ABCD)in Chinese healthy subjects.
