Active clinical trials for "Candidiasis"

To provide maintenance treatment with itraconazole solution for patients who were clinical responders in the ITR-USA-94 protocol, even if they subsequently relapsed.

In patients who are receiving intravenous high dose Interleukin-2, patients will be randomized into two groups: group one will receive nystatin swish and swallow immediately before initiation of IL-2, and the second group will receive a placebo. The patients in each group will be monitored and evaluated for differences in the rate and severity of development of oral irritation during treatment. They will also be studied for differences between the two groups in the number of doses of IL-2 taken.

The primary objective is to estimate global response rate. Clinical, microbiological and global response rates and its 95% confidence intervals will be computed. No hypotheses will be tested.

Anidulafungin is a medicine being developed for treatment of patients with certain kinds of fungal infections. These infections due to yeast (a type of fungus) in the mouth/esophagus, in the blood or in other areas within the body.

Candida is the most common fungal pathogen identified in hospitalized patients. This study will seek to enroll adult patients (18 years of age or older) with invasive Candida infections (involving deep tissues and organs). The study will not enroll patients whose only site of Candida infection was the bloodstream. Patients that fulfill all study entry criteria will receive a single daily dose of caspofungin. Caspofungin, an intravenous echinocandin antifungal agent, is already approved for the treatment of invasive candidiasis. The dosage strength and duration of caspofungin will be individualized for each patient based on disease, severity of disease and extent of infection.

Clinical and mycological response to oral fluconazole and boric acid suppositories was assessed in patients with diabetes mellitus and vulvovaginal candidiasis.

The primary purpose of this protocol is to provide fluconazole for the treatment of individual patients who require therapy for serious or life-threatening systemic fungal infection, who have failed on conventional antifungal therapy or have had unacceptable reactions to conventional antifungal therapy, and who are ineligible for other established fluconazole clinical trial protocols.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a specific strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on improving the effectiveness of conventional treatment of vulvo-vaginal candidiasis. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The administration of yeast will be local (vaginal).

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a specific strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on improving the effectiveness of conventional treatment of vulvo-vaginal candidiasis. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

In the treatment of patients with candidemia and/or other forms of invasive candidiasis , Anidulafungin is at least as effective and safe as Fluconazole.
