Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of KB001 in Cystic Fibrosis patients infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa)
This study is designed to provide data about the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of two continuous treatment regimes of tobramycin nebulized solution delivered via a 'soft mist' nebulizer in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) subjects. Each treatment period will last 8 weeks. Additionally the PK of patients with a normal forced expiratory flow in 1 second (FEV1) (FEV1≥80% predicted) will be compared to patients with an abnormal FEV1 (FEV1<80% predicted).
Hypothesis: Daily gargling with specific avian antibodies against Pseudomonas aeruginosa will prevent infections with this bacteria in patients with Cystic fibrosis (CF).
Preventing carriage of potentially pathogenic micro-organisms from the aerodigestive tract is an infection control strategy used to reduce the occurrence of nosocomial infections - including ventilator-assisted pneumonia - in intensive care units. The use of antibiotics is controversial and can lead to adverse effect such as the selection of highly resistant pathogens. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of oral administration of a probiotic strain, Lactobacillus, on gastric and respiratory tract colonisation/infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, according to the concept that an indigenous flora has a protective effect against secondary colonisation.
The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy of azithromycin, used as a quorum-sensing blocker, when compared to placebo for preventing or delaying the occurrence of pneumonia in ventilated patients colonized with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
This is a study to determine the safety and tolerability of 28 days of daily dosing of 560 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo and daily dosing of 70 mg and 140 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo in patients who have Cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic infection due to pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ceftobiprole versus a comparator in patients with fever and neutropenia
Our data indicate that the CFTR-molecule functions as a transporter for sphingosine-1-phosphate and sphingosine or regulates the uptake of these sphingolipids by epithelial cells. The disturbed uptake of sphingosine and sphingosine-1-phosphate over the cell membrane results in an accumulation of ceramide in the cell membrane, which finally triggers a pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic status in the respiratory tract of cystic fibrosis patients. Amitriptyline reduces the cera-mide levels in the lung tissue, normalises the activity of cytokines and prevents constitutive cell death of epithelial cells observed in CFTR-deficient mice. Most important, amitriptyline prevents pulmonary infections of CFTR-deficient mice with P. aeruginosa. These effects of amitriptyline may result in an improved lung function of cystic fibrosis patients.
The primary objective of this program is to provide expanded access to aztreonam lysine for inhalation (AZLI) 75 mg prior to its commercial availability to patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic P. aeruginosa airway infection who have limited treatment options and are at risk for disease progression.
Researchers want to find out if a drug called Cipro® XR (ciprofloxacin extended-release) can help people with a complicated urinary tract infection caused by a kind of bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The study doctor will give Cipro XR to some people to see if it is safe and works to treat complicated urinary tract infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The study doctor will also gather information about using Cipro XR to treat complicated urinary tract infections caused by other bacteria. About 500 people with complicated urinary tract infections who are 18 years old and older will join this study. Cipro XR is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections and acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis (inflammation of the kidney). The dose of Cipro XR used in this study (1000 mg a day for 7 to 14 days), has been shown to be safe and effective. This study is being done to gather more information on using this dose of Cipro XR for complicated urinary tract infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as by other bacteria.
