Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality of life in patients who previously underwent major amputation, and to determine any correlation with social deprivation factors. We hypothesize that patients with increased social deprivation (public or no insurance, lower education, lower income, etc.) will have lower quality of life following amputation.
CMTX-101 is a bacterial biofilm disrupting monoclonal antibody being developed as an adjunctive therapy to standard of care antibiotics. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of CMTX-101 in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Are single doses of CMTX-101 IV infusion safe and tolerated - What is the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of single doses of CMTX-101 - Do single doses of CMTX-101 induce development of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) and neutralizing antibodies (Nabs)
Current diagnostic tools such as interferon gamma release assay (IGRA) and purified protein derivative (PPD) can not distinguish patients with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and persistence of live mycobacteria. This inability to rule out living mycobacteria in patients investigated for LTBI leads to unnecessary and potentially harmful treatment regimes all around the globe. The goal of this observational study is to identify candidate biomarkers for viable bacilli in latent tuberculosis in order to decrease the use of unnecessary and ineffective antibiotic treatment.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the durability of protection and immuno-persistence of Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Bivalent (Types 16,18) Vaccine administered in females aged 18-45 years.

Little is known about autophagy during HIV infection. Recently, two different teams reported important dysfunctions of autophagy in HIV-infected patients despite sustained suppressive antiretroviral therapy. As altered autophagy is strongly linked to cellular senescence and chronic inflammation, two hallmarks of HIV-infected patients despite long-term suppressive antiretroviral therapy, it is important to improve our knowledge in the area. Our main objective is to determine whether all or part of mononuclear cell subpopulations (CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes, and monocytes) exhibit a defect in autophagy function in a cohort of HIV-infected patients who are virologically-controlled (plasma HIV RNA <50 copies / ml) either spontaneously (i.e. HIV controllers or post-treatment controllers) or after they started antiretroviral therapy at different time points (i.e. at the acute or chronic phases), as compared with a control group (i.e. uninfected healthy blood donors).
