Filter by:This is an open-label study, where participants will be given ceftolozane-tazobactam as the primary treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Open-label means both the investigator and the participant will known what drug will be given. Participants will be followed for approximately 60 days. Ceftolozane-tazobactam is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of serious bacterial infection and the investigator hypothesizes that ceftolozane/tazobactam may be effective as the primary antibiotic treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections.
Phase 1b/2a, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single and multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and phage recovery profile of AP-PA02 multi-bacteriophage therapeutic candidate administered by inhalation in subjects with cystic fibrosis and chronic pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogenic bacteria for human, especially in hospital settings. It can sometimes be multi-resistant to many or even to all antibiotics usually used for its treatment. The aim of the study is to isolate and produce therapeutic antibodies against the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa in order to provide an alternative treatment to antibiotics in case of infection with an antibiotic-resistant strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Hospital-based Animal-Assisted visitation programs are important complementary therapies, but concerns with infection control may challenge the sustainability of these programs. Pilot data suggest that a low-cost chlorhexidine-based intervention targeted to the dogs involved in the visitation programs holds high potential to prevent pathogen transmission during sessions. In this study, the following aims will be tested: 1) To identify program-related risk factors for acquisition of hospital-associated pathogens by pediatric patients during animal-assisted intervention (AAI) sessions during an initial run-in phase of no intervention; 2) To determine the effect of chlorhexidine (CHX)-based interventions on acquisition of hospital-associated pathogens and microbial communities by patients during AAI sessions via a multicenter randomized controlled trial; and 3) To determine whether the specific benefits achieved by the visitation program, i.e. reduction in blood pressure, heart rate and self-reported pain and anxiety, are impacted by the interventions.
Cystic fibrosis is the most common hereditary autosomal recessive disease in the Caucasian population. The diseases is caused by a mutation of the gene coding for the CFTR protein (Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator), an ion channel present at the apical pole of the epithelial cells. The channel dysfunction induces a deficit in hydration and a hyperviscosity of different exocrine secretions. Clinically, Cystic fibrosis is a multi-systemic disease. Pulmonary and pancreatic involvement are classically in the foreground. Degradation of respiratory function, associated with acute and chronic infections, represents the major cause of morbidity and mortality. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous gram-negative bacillus found primarily in stagnant water. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is capable of colonizing the digestive, pulmonary and urinary mucosa and the skin. This bacterium is incriminated in many opportunistic infections including respiratory infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is the most common parenchymal lung infection in the Cystic fibrosis community. Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronic carriage represents a factor of poor prognosis associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality. Complications related to chronic carriage of Pseudomonas aeruginosa justify the implementation of strategies of eviction, screening and eradication of acute Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. In addition to Pseudomonas aeruginosa contamination of patients via the environment, hand and airborne infections between patients with Cystic fibrosis have been reported. Measures to eliminate cross-transmissions have therefore been implemented in a majority of hospitals. The aim of the study is firstly to identify the number of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cross-transmissions between patients with Cystic fibrosis followed-up in Cystic fibrosis center of HUDERF. Investigator will use the Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis to assess the possibility of cross-infection. Depending on the results, Investigator will implement new strategies to avoid future cross-contamination in our different places of care (consultation, hospitalization, physiotherapy…).
This study is planned to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug Ftortiazinon in combination with the drug Maxipime® in comparison with placebo in combination with the drug Maxipime® in the treatment of hospitalized adult patients with complicated urinary tract infections caused by P. aeruginosa.
This study will describe clinical outcomes in patients who received ceftolozane-tazobactam for a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Primary outcomes include 30-day and in-hospital mortality.
This is a prospective, randomized multi-center trial investigating the impact of lower airway infection with P. aeruginosa in COPD patients. The aim of the study is to evaluate if targeted antibiotic therapy against P. aeruginosa can improve the prognosis in patients with COPD. non-CF bronchiectasis (BE) and asthma.
Clinical trial looking to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MEDI3902 in mechanically ventilated participants for the prevention of nosocomial pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main pathogen of nosocomial respiratory infections. Its increasing resistance to antibiotics requires the development of new strategies for prevention and control, demanding a better understanding of the modes of transmission and evolutionary dynamics of this bacteria. In patients under invasive mechanical ventilation, the main mode of contamination by Pseudomonas remains debated, with 3 modes of contamination (endogenous, crossed transmission between patients, or environmental origin) of varying importance, mainly depending on the endemic situation of the place of study. The emergence of new genotyping technologies (DiversiLab) can now facilitate studies of molecular epidemiology. Thanks to the multidisciplinary collaboration and innovative techniques, the investigators wish to study the impact of the mode of contamination on the outcome of ICU patients, intubated and ventilated for more than 72 hours.
