Filter by:This study will investigate the effects of PreforPro® (prebiotic and bacteriophages (LH01-Myoviridae, LL5-Siphoviridae, T4D-Myoviridae, and LL12-Myoviridae, greater > 6.7 X 107 PFU/gram) on bacterial vaginosis.
This is a phase 1, Single-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, dose escalation, clinical trial enrolling 24 healthy participants. The main subject is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the LABTHERA-001 capsule and to explore the acceptability of the capsule.
Three-quarters of women have bacterial vaginosis (BV) or vaginal thrush/candida yeast infection at least once during their lifetime. Symptoms can include abnormal vaginal discharge, soreness, itching and an unpleasant smell. BV during pregnancy can make the baby come too early. In the UK over a million women suffer recurrent vaginal infections. These can affect their sexual relationships and quality of life, and may need repeated courses of treatment. But some women prefer not to keep taking antibiotics which can have side effects and encourage the growth of resistant superbugs. Lactoferrin is a prebiotic protein derived from cow's milk. Women also have naturally occurring lactoferrin in their vagina where it helps to prevent infections and encourage the growth of healthy bacteria. Recent research suggests lactoferrin may be an effective treatment for BV and thrush, but this needs to be confirmed. Aim To see if it is feasible to conduct a future trial to prove whether lactoferrin vaginal pessaries are an acceptable, effective and cost-effective alternative to antibiotic tablets for women with BV or thrush. Methods The investigators will recruit a total of 57 women with BV and 57 with thrush from two sexual health clinics and a general practice. Women will be asked to provide self-taken vaginal samples with a cotton bud, and to complete a confidential sexual-health questionnaire. Then the women will be divided into two groups. One group will be given lactoferrin vaginal pessaries to use every night for 3-weeks. The other group will be given antibiotic/antifungal tablets. All women will be asked to provide repeat vaginal samples at home and text us about any symptoms to see if the treatment works, if the infection comes back and if they would like antibiotics. After 12-weeks all women will be invited back for a final check-up. Outcome measures: - Acceptability and use of vaginal lactoferrin - from questionnaires, and interviews with 15-20 women - Recruitment and follow-up rates - Cost of lactoferrin treatment - The percentage of women who report their symptoms have resolved after a week - How quickly infections clear or recur - from analysis of samples Patient benefit: If this study leads to a trial showing vaginal lactoferrin is an acceptable and effective alternative to antibiotics, this could help relieve symptoms, prevent antimicrobial resistance and save NHS costs.
In a population of women with heightened vulvovaginal sensitivity and recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV), the use of the Flourish HEC Vaginal Care System is being tested for prevention of BV recurrence over six months of use.
The purpose of this investigator-initiated randomized control trial is to determine if bacterial vaginosis infection increases the likelihood of preterm delivery in women with history of preterm delivery. Subjects will be randomized in a two-arm study to undergo predetermined intervals of testing for bacterial vaginosis or control.
Open, single arm trial that intends to confirm the safety and efficacy of Multi-Gyn ActiGel Plus for treatment of Bacterial Vaginosis. Adult women will be diagnosed by the gynaecologist based on the Amsel criteria at day 0. They will use the product for 7 days and will come to the practice at day 21. The primary endpoint is the clinical cure rate of Bacterial Vaginosis at 3 weeks after start of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness Secnidazole to treat recurrent BV. Secnidazole is approved for one-time use in acute BV. In this study, the drug will be used for recurrent BV, and given weekly for 18 weeks.
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.
