Active clinical trials for "Aspergillosis"

Phase IV, open-label study will evaluate effects of Benralizumab in the treatment of severe asthma in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis

This prescreening study is being conducted to diagnose ABPA in selected patients with asthma and to increase the potential number of eligible participants for the ongoing Study 601-0018 of PUR1900 in subjects with ABPA. See: NCT05667662. Additionally, this prescreening study may provide information that could assist the conduct of future studies conducted by Pulmatrix.

Mechanically ventilated patients are at risk of developing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), the diagnosis of which motivates the implementation of specific treatments, is one of the causes of VAP. The hypothesis of the study is that the incidence of IPA is 12.4%. For each patient presenting with a suspicion of VAP and requiring a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), the diagnosis of API will be evaluated by biological examinations performed on blood and BAL. Medical and surgical history as well as clinical and biological data will be collected for 28 days or until discharge from the ICU.

The aim of this research project is to compare the results of Aspergillus specific test methods Aspergillus Galactomannan Enzyme Immunoassay (GM-EIA), Aspergillus polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Aspergillus Galactomannan Lateral Flow Assay (LFA) from different respiratory tract secretions. The bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and bronchial secretions (NBL) are compared in the same examination for each patient.

The primary safety objectives were: Part 1: To determine the safety and tolerability of single doses of ZP-059 in healthy subjects Part 2: To determine the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of ZP-059 in subjects with mild stable asthma Part 3: To determine the safety and tolerability of single doses of ZP-059 in subjects with mild to moderate stable asthma. The primary PK objectives were: Part 1: To characterize systemic PK of voriconazole and N-oxide voriconazole after single doses of ZP-059 in healthy subjects Part 2: To characterize systemic PK of voriconazole and N-oxide voriconazole after multiple doses of ZP-059 in subjects with mild stable asthma Part 3: To characterize systemic PK of voriconazole and N-oxide voriconazole after single doses of ZP-059 and single doses of oral voriconazole in subjects with mild to moderate stable asthma.

A Phase I, open label study evaluating safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of F901318 in healthy subjects following up to 28 days dosing, where F901318 is given orally . The effect of food upon the pharmacokinetics of F901318 and the effect of F901318 upon the pharmacokinetics of midazolam will also be assessed.

RATIONALE: Antifungals such as voriconazole may be effective in controlling fungal infections. Combining voriconazole with interferon gamma may be more effective than voriconazole alone in treating fungal infections. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of voriconazole with or without interferon gamma in treating patients who have aspergillosis or other fungal infections.

RATIONALE: Antifungals, such as caspofungin acetate, may be effective in treating fungal infections caused by chemotherapy or stem cell transplant. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well caspofungin acetate works as first-line treatment for aspergillosis in patients with hematologic cancer or in patients who have undergone a stem cell transplant.

RATIONALE: Antifungal therapy with voriconazole or amphotericin B may be an effective treatment for aspergillosis. It is not yet known whether voriconazole is more effective than amphotericin B in treating patients with aspergillosis. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of voriconazole with amphotericin B in treating patients with aspergillosis.

Concentrations of voriconazole in pulmonary epithelial lining fluid and in serum are compared after inhalation of 40 mg voriconazole b.i.d. for two days or oral intake of voriconazole tablets 400 mg bid for 1 day followed by 200 mg b.i.d. for one day, respectively.
