Active clinical trials for "Aspergillosis"

This study will examine how children's bodies metabolize and eliminate the anti-fungal drug voriconazole. The results will yield information needed to make recommendations for safe and effective dosing of the drug in children. Children with reduced immune function-such as those receiving drugs for cancer treatment-are at high risk for serious fungal infections. Children between 2 and 12 years old who need treatment to prevent fungal infections may be eligible for this study. Candidates will be screened with a physical examination, eye examination, and blood and urine tests. Children in the study will be hospitalized for 21 days. They will receive voriconazole twice a day (every 12 hours) for 8 days, infused through a vein over a period of 1 to 2 hours. The dose will be determined based on the individual child's weight. Blood samples will be collected at various intervals before and after the infusions on days 1, 2, 4 and 8 to determine the amount of drug in the blood. On day 8, the child will have another physical and eye examination, as well as additional blood and urine tests. If additional treatment is required, voriconazole may be continued for up to day 21. (Children who require the drug for more than 21 days may receive it under another research protocol.) On the last day of treatment, the child will have another physical examination, and blood and urine tests. These procedures will be repeated again at 30 to 35 days following the last dose of drug. A small sample of blood will also be analyzed for genetic information related to the rate of metabolism of voriconazole-that is, how fast or slow it is cleared (eliminated) by the liver. Voriconazole is effective against several different fungi. It may protect children against serious fungal infections with fewer side effects than standard available therapy.

Study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of coadminstration of SCY-078 with a mold-active azole (voriconazole) compared to voriconazole in patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis.

The objective of this study is to evaluate whether antifungal prophylaxis with isavuconazole can reduce the incidence of SARS-CoV-2-associated invasive aspergillosis in patients in the ICU (intensive care unit) with severe COVID-19 infection. The investigators will perform an interventional, double-blinded, randomized-controlled, multi-center study in patients with severe COVID-19 infection admitted to the ICU. Patients will be randomized to the isavuconazole prophylaxis plus standard of care (SOC) group or the placebo plus SOC group. Participants will receive isavuconazole or placebo for up to 28 days or until discharge from the hospital (whichever occurs first).

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of isavuconazole versus voriconazole in the treatment of patients with invasive aspergillosis.

Open label evaluation of potential interaction of F901318 with cytochrome P450 3A4 using midazolam as a probe. Twenty healthy male subjects will participate

Single dose comparison of liquid and solid formulation, followed by study of effect of high fat breakfast. Evaluation of multiple dose pharmacokinetics and tolerability

Combination therapy of caspofungin and amphotericin B could be a useful treatment option in invasive fungal disease, but before it can be routinely recommended; carefully controlled and well-designed randomized clinical trials are needed.

The combination of Anidulafungin plus AmBisome® may offer an improved outcome for patients treated for Invasive Aspergillosis (IA). The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and the clinical and microbiological effectiveness of anidulafungin plus AmBisome® in treated patients located in the United States, Europe, and South Africa.

Invasive aspergillosis is a type of fungal infection typically identified in very sick patients (for example, patients with cancer or who have had a bone marrow or organ transplant). This study will seek to enroll patients (16 years of age or older) with invasive aspergillosis infections (involving organs or deep tissues) who are failing or could not tolerate standard antifungal therapy. Your doctor will make this determination based upon specific study criteria. Patients that fulfill all study criteria will be treated daily with both the investigational drug and another antifungal agent. The choice of the other agent is up to your doctor. This investigational drug is approved for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis by itself. The safety and efficacy of this investigational drug, in combination with other agents is not known.
