NCT ID: NCT05107362 Completed - Clinical trials for Respiratory Tract Infections

Clinical Performance of the Checkable Medical At-Home Strep A Test

Start date: December 21, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Checkable Medical At-Home Strep A Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Group A Strep (GAS) antigens from throat swabs. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the investigational device (i.e., sensitivity, specificity, NPV and PPV) when used by untrained lay persons to detect the presence of Group A Streptococcal antigens in throat swab specimens from individuals five years of age and older with signs and symptoms of pharyngitis, such as fever and sore throat.

NCT ID: NCT04594785 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Streptococcus Pneumonia

Evaluation of Post Infectious Inflammatory Reaction (PIIR) Concerning Children After Streptococcus Pneumoniae, Streptococcus Pyogenes and Neisseria Meningococcus Invasive Infection

RIPI
Start date: October 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

As Covid 19 manifestations that have been recently described, inflammatory manifestation have major impact in infectious disease lesions. Some of them are delayed and provide Post infectious inflammatory reaction (PIIR), they are challenging for diagnosis and for management. Clinician have to avoid unnecessary antibiotic thearapy and in if necessary have to give immunosuppressive therapy. Except for rheumatic disease for group A streptococcus (GAS) infections there are not stanrdized diagnostic criteria and therapeutic protocol, and PIIR have probably a suboptimal management. In this context the investigators aim to explore PIIR in the 3 most frequent bacterial invasive infection in France, by a retrospective monocentric study. The investigators include all children betwwen 2012 and 2018 hospitalized for infections by Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP), Neisseria meningitidis (NM), and GAS invasive infections.

Controlled Human Infection for Vaccination Against Streptococcus Pyogenes

CHIVAS
Start date: July 10, 2018
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Group A Streptococcus (GAS) infection is a major cause of death and disability globally with a disproportionately high burden in settings of disadvantage worldwide. Acute infections due to GAS range from very common superficial skin infections (>150 million prevalent cases) and pharyngitis (over 600 million incident cases) to life-threatening invasive disease (>600,000 incident cases) such as necrotising fasciitis. Post-infectious GAS sequelae of GAS include acute rheumatic fever (ARF, ~500,000 incident cases) leading to rheumatic heart disease (RHD, ~34 million prevalent cases), and acute glomerulonephritis. The health services impact of GAS disease in all its forms is immense and strikes at every level from primary to intensive care. Controlled human infection models (CHIMs) have a long history of critical contributions to vaccine development. Data from CHIMs meeting modern scientific, regulatory, and ethical standards, are aiding efforts to control over 25 major human pathogens, including bacteria (e.g. pneumococcus, cholera), viruses (e.g. respiratory syncytial virus, influenza), and parasites (e.g. malaria, schistosomiasis). A reliable and safe controlled human infection model of GAS pharyngitis will be an important part of the global vaccine development effort. To build the model, the investigators are undertaking a dose-ranging study using an observational, dose-escalation, inpatient trial to determine the dose of GAS administered by direct oropharyngeal inoculation (bacteria 'painted' onto throat) required to reliably produce a pharyngitis attack rate of ≥ 60% in carefully screened healthy adult volunteers.

NCT ID: NCT00535093 Completed - Pharyngitis Clinical Trials

An Assessment of Rapid Streptococcal Tests in Community Clinics in Israel

Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is a large over-use of antibiotics in family medicine, especially in upper respiratory tract infections. This study is designed to determine if the use of rapid Streptococcal tests in primary care clinics can lower the rate of antibiotic use while not missing bacterial infections.
