Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of LACTIN-V, a vaginally administered live biotherapeutic product (LBP) that contains the human L. crispatus CTV-05 strain, on the vaginal microbiome of Lactobacillus-deficient young women in the South African FRESH study who are at high risk for HIV acquisition.
It aims to determine and compare the degree of vaginal bacterial alpha diversity in the absence (healthy population) or presence of bacterial vaginosis (pathological population).
The reproductive tract microecology is an important part of the human microbial system. Microorganisms and the host reproductive tract environment form a stable symbiotic relationship. When pathogens invade or microecology imbalance，it can lead to serious reproductive tract infection.Reproductive tract infection is one of the most common disease among women，and it is a global social and public health problem. Reproductive tract infection is characterized by high morbidity, low cure rate and high recurrence rate.Data from the studies shows that 40% of Chinese women suffer from reproductive tract infections of varying degrees, that is, at least 200 million. Long-term chronic infections can lead to serious consequences such as infertility, tumor, abortion and premature birth. At present, the diagnostic classification of reproductive tract infection is mainly divided into Aerobic vaginitis（AV), Bacterial vaginosis（BV), Vulvovaginal candidiasis（VVC) and Trichomonas vaginitis（TV). The reproductive tract microbiota is complex, but the clinical classification is relatively simple, which makes the treatment lack of precision. More precise treatment，permanent cure and reducing the recurrence rate are the top priorities in the field of medical and health.
The purpose of this study is to identify the presence of L. Crispatus in the rectum and vagina after oral administration of BIOVAGINIL by searching for specific DNA of the bacterial strain, to evaluate the tolerability of BIOVAGINIL and evaluate the minimum duration of the oral administration necessary to determine the appearance of L. Crispatus.
This is a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled multi-centre study to evaluate clinical performance, safety and local tolerability of initial and preventive treatment with Gedea Pessary in adult women with confirmed BV. The study population will consist of post-menarchal, pre-menopausal females 18 years or older seeking for BV symptoms (fishy smell, irritation and burning). Patients will be recruited at study sites' gynaecological and sexual health clinics and a total of 150 patients are planned to be randomised in the study. On Day 0, patients will have gynaecological examination, vaginal samples taken, and will be randomised in a 4:1 relation to receive treatment with 6 doses of the Gedea Pessary or a vehicle control (placebo) to be self-administered daily (Days 0 to 5). Patients will be re examined at Day 7 (+2 days) for clinical cure rate. Patients that are clinically cured at Day 7 will continue to the second part of the study and will be randomised in a 1:1 relation to either Gedea Pessary or placebo treatment, to be self administered once a week for a duration of 126 days. Patients not clinically cured at Day 7 will be offered rescue treatment (metronidazole) for 7 days. They will return at Day 14 for clinical assessment and sampling for microbiome and mycobiome analysis, and if cured they will be assessed for recurrence up to Day 128. Patients that are not cured at Day 14 will be discontinued from the study. Patients that are clinically cured at Day 7 and continuing in Part 2 will be followed up until confirmed recurrence or Day 128 if no recurrence. Vaginal samples will be taken by self-swab on Days 35, 63 and 91, a visit to the clinic will be performed at Day 63 and telephone follow up will be done at Days 35 and 91. Vaginal samples will also be taken at the visit on the Day of potential recurrence and/or at Day 128 if no recurrence. Vaginal samples will be used for confirming the diagnosis (Nugent score on Day 0 and Day 7) and sequencing analysis of the vaginal microbiome and mycobiome (Days 0, 7, 35, 63, 91 and Day of confirmed recurrence or Day 128 if no recurrence). Patient follow-up as regards to patient questionnaire/usability, AEs and BV recurrence notification will be handled with a mobile phone application. In case of a suspected BV recurrence, the patient should return to the clinic for confirmation of BV diagnosis.
Low adherence to recommended health and nutrition strategies during the critical 1000 day-window of opportunity is multifactorial but low quality communication is key limitation. Innovative strategies to improve interpersonal communication can reduce the burden and the fatigue of community health workers and may result in a greater change. The findings of this project will support governments and other stakeholders in their delivery of high impact nutrition and health practices. This intervention aims to improve adherence to ante- and post-natal care practices and recommendations by the use of our video-based health education. These videos will be implemented through home-based counseling by trained assistants, and video-based forum participation led by community nurses and health extension workers (HEWs). During the monthly forums, the educational package will be delivered in a video form - locally prepared using multiple approaches like testimony, comedy, dramas in the form of questions and answers, group discussions and deductive approaches. Cordless projectors and locally created videos give the health community more quality control over the end message, expand the number of people reached, allow for the use of minimally trained non-expert facilitators such as the hews, and allow for contextually appropriate information. They can also be used in areas without access to electricity, helping to bridge the digital divide, and serving as a leapfrog technology for areas that would otherwise not have access to media.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of DARE-BV1 (clindamycin phosphate vaginal gel, 2%) (QD x 1 day) compared to placebo vaginal gel (HEC Universal Placebo Gel) (QD × 1 day) for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. Patients will be evaluated at three time points: a Day 1 Screening/Randomization visit, a Day 7-14 Interim Assessment visit, and a Day 21 - 30 Test of Cure [TOC] visit). Patients who discontinue prematurely from the study will receive a safety follow-up phone call between Day 21-30. The total study duration will be approximately one month for each individual patient.
The objective of the present PMCF study with a 6 month follow up period is to identify potential new and unknown risks associated with longer term use of Ainara® and (considering the duration of symptoms in GSM) to collect additional data regarding efficacy of a long-term treatment with this medical device.
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is under-reported, misdiagnosed and inappropriately treated in Nigeria. Treatment option rely on antibiotics that eliminates both good and pathogenic bacteria, with gross impact on the gut and vaginal microbiome. Our primary objective in this study is to determine the effects of Lactobacillus on the gut and vagina when taken orally.
The research was conduct with 3 different products for use in the intimate region in up to 70 research participants, that use the investigational product by 35 ± 2 days. The subjects were follow up throughout the study by a gynecologist for verification of safety, effectiveness and possible adverse events.
