Filter by:DUOFAG® is a phage cocktail containing bacteriophages active against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is an investigational medicinal product for the treatment of surgical site infections caused by S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety of DUOFAG® and the clinical and microbiological change within 10 weeks after the start of treatment or until healing.
People with bronchiectasis are prone to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infections, which can become chronic and lead to increased death rates and disease severity. Studies from cystic fibrosis suggest that eradication therapy aimed at PA can successfully transition patients to a culture-negative status, providing long-term benefits. Current guidelines for managing bronchiectasis in adults recommend eradicating PA when it is first or newly isolated; however, there is a lack of randomized controlled trials supporting such recommendations. The researchers hypothesize that both oral ciprofloxacin combined with Tobramycin inhalation solution and Tobramycin inhalation solution alone are superior to no eradication (inhaled saline) in terms of the eradication rates of PA, defined as a negative sputum culture of PA at both 24 weeks and 36 weeks.
This is a Phase I/IIa trial designed to evaluate topical bacteriophage therapy in patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
Phage Treatment in Covid-19 Patients with Bacterial Co-Infections
There is established evidence that adult patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) may have altered antibiotic pharmacokinetics compared with non-CF patients. Ceftolozane/Tazobactam is a newly approved broad spectrum intravenous antibiotic, which has potent in vitro activity against multidrug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the most common pathogen implicated in CF pulmonary exacerbations. This study will determine the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of ceftolozane/tazobactam in 20 adult CF patients admitted for a pulmonary exacerbation at one of 4 participating hospitals in the US. Patients will remain on standard of care IV antibiotics and receive 4-6 doses of ceftolozane/tazobactam 3 grams every 8 hours. Blood will be sampled after the final dose to determine concentrations and pharmacokinetics of ceftolozane and tazobactam. Safety and tolerability will be assessed throughout the 3 day study.
The main objective is to verify that the administration of piperacillin / tazobactam administered by continuous infusion to treat complicated infections or with known or suspected nosocomial isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is superior in efficacy to a 30% higher dose administered in conventional short infusion. The secondary objectives were compared between the following variables: - Microbiological response at 3 days of starting treatment - Time to microbiological cure - Clinical response at 3 days of starting treatment - Time to achieve defervescence - To examine the relationship between pharmacokinetic variables and parameters of efficacy and safety - To test the hypothesis that continuous infusion maintains adequate plasma drug levels compared with levels achieved with intermittent administration. - Cost-effectiveness analysis - Occurrence of adverse effects To this end, we designed a multicenter, randomized, controlled, double blind, comparing both forms of administration in patients with complicated or nosocomial infection with or without isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Patients who are candidates for inclusion are classified according to APACHE II and to have or not isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Subsequently be randomized to receive piperacillin-tazobactam by continuous infusion or short. Primary endpoint was measured as the ultimate effectiveness of treatment and other variables such as high efficiency, safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacoeconomic.
This is a confirmatory, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center, double-blinded phase II/III study. The study population consists of male or female intensive care unit (ICU) patients with a need for mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours, aged between 18 and 80 years.
This study will determine the concentrations of the antibiotic meropenem when administered as a 3 hour prolonged infusion in children with cystic fibrosis who are hospitalized with an acute pulmonary exacerbation. Safety and practicality of administering meropenem as a 3 hour infusion will be measured.
A major factor in the respiratory health of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) participants is the prevalence of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) infections. The Pa infection rate in CF patients increases with age and by age 18 years approximately 85% of CF patients in the US are infected. Liposomal amikacin for inhalation (Arikayce™) was developed as a possible treatment for chronic infection due to Pa in CF patients. The purpose of this study is to determine whether Arikayce™ is effective in treating chronic lung infections caused by Pa in CF participants. The effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of Arikayce™ will be compared to Tobramycin TOBI®, an inhalation antibiotic already available for use.
