Active clinical trials for "Aspergillosis"

This study tests the effects of an experimental drug PC945 in people with asthma or other chronic respiratory diseases whose lungs are infected by Aspergillus fungi and Candida yeasts. PC945 may be useful in treating patients infected with Aspergillus as, unlike the usual treatments, it is inhaled into the lung and has been designed to stay there and treat the infection. Participants will continue to receive their usual treatment for their chronic respiratory disease. Half of the participants will receive PC945 and half will receive a placebo. The amount of fungus and yeast in the patients' phlegm will be measured over the course of the study. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and will include approximately 46 participants. The maximum study duration will be about 16 weeks.

This study tests the effects of pre-emptive treatment with an experimental drug PC945 in lung transplant recipients whose lungs are infected by the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. PC945 may be useful in treating patients infected with Aspergillus fumigatus as, unlike the usual treatments, it is inhaled into the lung and has been designed to stay there and treat the infection. Participants will be monitored for up-to 12 weeks for the presence of Aspergillus in their lungs. Suitable participants will receive PC945 for an initial 28 days (Pre-emptive treatment phase) and, if needed, a further 8-weeks (Extended treatment phase).The amount of fungus in the patients' lungs will be measured over the course of the study. Participants with lung infections but not eligible for PC945 will be followed-up for 16-weeks on standard of care treatment. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and 10 participants will receive PC945. The maximum study duration will be about 28 weeks.

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Itraconazole Administered as a Dry Powder for Inhalation (PUR1900) in Adult Asthmatic Patients With Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous micafungin for the treatment of adult patients in China infected by Candida spp or Aspergillus spp.

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is the most common cause of lung destruction, contributing to coinfections development, and Aspergillosis spp. is one of the most important. Diagnosis of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) in PTB patients is difficult due to similarity of clinical and radiological data, especially in resource-constrained settings. Differentiation of PTB patients with singling out a group with a higher Aspergillus IgG level during the initial examination will help physicians to orient to further examination of CPA. Objectives: to determine the prevalence of aspergillosis in Koch's bacillus-positive and Koch's bacillus-negative PTB patients and antifungal resistance of Aspergillus species isolates in Central Asia countries.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of voriconazole (an antifungal drug) when used in children who have invasive aspergillosis (IA) and other rare systemic fungal infections.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of omalizumab for the treatment of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA) in patients with Cystic Fibrosis aged 12 years and older.

This study will test the effectiveness and the safety of giving two antifungal agents (voriconazole and anidulafungin) together to treat invasive aspergillosis in patients who are unable to tolerate polyene therapy.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous micafungin for the treatment of proven or probable fungal infections caused by Aspergillus sp. (Fungemia, respiratory mycosis, gastrointestinal mycosis) in adult patients in China.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of micafungin in patients with proven invasive aspergillosis and who are refractory or intolerant to previous systemic antifungal therapy. To compare the efficacy and safety of the micafungin therapy with the active control arm
