Filter by:This is a Phase I/IIa trial designed to evaluate topical bacteriophage therapy in patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
This is a Phase 1, first time in human study enrolling approximately 42 healthy adult subjects (18-45 yrs) from one study site. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of MW14 in healthy adult volunteers administered as a single IV dose compared with placebo, across 5 cohorts. The 5 dose cohorts will enroll sequentially. Subjects will be followed for safety from the time of Informed Consent through 85 days post dose.
Given the paucity of pharmacological data on cefazolin treatment of Methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) complicated S. aureus infection (CSAI), the primary purpose of this study is to investigate the probability of pharmacological target attainment (in the blood and infected tissue) with standard intermittent bolus administration of cefazolin in patients with CSAI caused by MSSA by determining plasma concentrations of cefazolin and exact Minimum inhibitory concentration (MICs) of the causative MSSA strains in patients with various disease severities (e.g. critically ill vs. noncritically ill patients). - Sub-study quantitative measurement of Torque Teno virus (TTV): The primary purpose of this sub-study is to describe the viral kinetics of TTV in CSAI patients and to explore the association of TTV viremia with clinical outcomes and molecular markers of activation of the immune system. - Sub-study investigating antibiotic concentrations in sweat as a non-invasive therapeutic drug monitoring
This is a single center, open-label phase1b clinical trial. The study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an experimental recombinant staphylococcus aureus vaccine with different immunization schedules in healthy adults aged 18-70 years, including day 0-3-7, day 0/0-3-7, day 0/0-7 and day 0/0-7-14.
This is an open-label, dose-escalation pilot study with a total of 30 participants with 10 per dosage group. The aim of the pilot study is to explore the preliminary safety of an experimental recombinant staphylococcus aureus vaccine.
Before this study, there will be an open-label, dose-escalation pilot study with a total of 30 participants with 10 per dosage group. The aim of the pilot study is to explore the preliminary safety of an experimental recombinant staphylococcus aureus vaccine. This is a single center, double-blind, placebo control, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial. This study will determine the safety and side-effect profile, and immunogenicity of an experimental recombinant staphylococcus aureus vaccine. The study will be carried out following a dose-escalation method from the low dosage to the high dosage, i.e. the higher dosage vaccine could only be administrated after the first seven-day safety of the lower dosage vaccine is confirmed after safety observation.
Study to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of two concentrations of XF-73 nasal gel in combination with body and face washing with chlorhexidine gluconate cloths in eradicating nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus.
Increasing resistance to antibiotic agents has been recognized as a major health problem worldwide that will even aggravate due to the lack of new antimicrobial agents within the next decade [1]. This threat underscores the need to maximize clinical utility of existing antibiotics, through more rational prescription, e.g. optimizing duration of treatment. Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infection (SAB) is a common disease with about 200,000 cases occurring annually in Europe [2]. A course of at least 14 days of intravenous antimicrobials is considered standard therapy [3-5] in "uncomplicated" SAB. This relatively long course serves to prevent SAB-related complications (such as endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis) that may result from hematogenous dissemination to distant sites. However, there is insufficient evidence that a full course of intravenous antibiotic therapy is always required in patients with a low risk of SAB-related complications. In a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial we aim to demonstrate that an early switch from intravenous to oral antimicrobial therapy is non-inferior to a conventional 14-days course of intravenous therapy regarding efficacy and safety. An early switch from intravenous to oral therapy would provide several benefits such as earlier discharge, fewer adverse reactions associated with intravenous therapy, increased quality of life, and cost savings.
Background: - MRSA is a type of bacteria that causes serious health problems. It can cause severe infections and is difficult to treat. MRSA has been found in a high number of people who work with some kinds of livestock, such as pigs. Researchers want to study people in rural areas, where more people work with or around livestock. They want to see if MRSA is more common or causes more serious infections in these areas. Objectives: - To look at the relationship between livestock handling (especially pigs) and MRSA bacteria in people in rural areas. Eligibility: - Participants in the Agricultural Health Study in Iowa, including those who are exposed to livestock. - Healthy volunteers who are not exposed to livestock. Design: - This study requires an initial visit and monthly follow-up surveys for 18 months. - At the first visit, participants will have throat and nose swabs to collect cell and bacteria samples. They will also complete a questionnaire about their health habits. Other questions will ask about any work that brings them into contact with livestock like cows, pigs, or chickens. - Every month for the next 17 months, participants will complete another questionnaire to record any changes in their health and livestock contact information. They will also collect throat and nose swabs. They will send the questionnaires and the swabs to the study researchers. - Participants will be paid for the first visit and for every monthly survey and swab collection they return. - No treatment will be given as part of this protocol.
This is a study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of V710 with and without Merck Aluminum Adjuvant (MAA) in adult participants with end-stage kidney disease who are on hemodialysis.
