Active clinical trials for "Candidemia"

The purpose of this study is to show whether Veronate, a donor-selected staphylococcal human immune globulin intravenous (IGIV), can prevent an infection in the blood caused by staphylococcal bacteria in premature babies weighing between 500 and 1250 grams at birth. Babies are enrolled between Day of Life 3 and 5. Babies are randomized to either Veronate or placebo (50-50 chance of either). Babies can receive up to 4 doses of the study drug on Study Days 1, 3, 8 and 15 and are followed until Study Day 70 or discharge from the hospital.

This is a phase-I, double-blind, randomized study with hLF1-11 to study the tolerability and early efficacy of hLF1-11 compared to standard fluconazole therapy in hospitalized patients with invasive Candida infection.

Children with fungal infections will be divided into two groups by weight. Children weighing < 25 kg will receive a higher dose of study medication (per kg body weight) for 10 to 14 days than children weighing > 25 kg.

Infants and toddlers with fungal infections will receive 10 to 14 days of treatment with an antifungal drug. Safety and drug blood levels will be assessed

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of interferon-gamma in combination with anidulafungin for the treatment of candidemia

Candidemia is the most frequent invasive fungal disease in intensive care units (ICUs). It remains a major health concern, considering its attributable mortality up to 40% in critically ill patients. Successful clinical outcome requires early diagnosis and effective antifungal therapy. Guidelines for the treatment of candidemia were published by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) and the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID). According to these guidelines, echinocandins are the preferred first-line therapy for candidemia in critically ill patients. Considering the bibliography supporting this statement, the place of triazoles still needs to be defined in candidemia therapeutic arsenal. In this context, we are setting up a retrospective cohort study using Hospital database to compare the efficacy of echinocandins and azoles for the treatment of candidemia in intensive care units.

This study is a retrospective research in order to compare and analysis the risk factor, clinical manifestation and efficacy of albicans candidemia by pulling medical records. We hope that this retrospective research will let us understand the method of treatment and prevention of albicans candidemia in order to improve the quality of healthcare.

The objective of this study is to collect the safety and efficacy data of Eraxis IV (anidulafungin) 100 mg according to Korea Ministry of Food and Drug Safety regulations.

The purpose of this study is to provide anidulafungin and voriconazole to healthy subjects to determine the drug concentration in the lung.

Bloodstream infections due to Candida spp remain a serious medical challenge because of their high incidence and poor outcome. Diagnosis and monitoring of patients are still problematic, hindering efficient clinical management of the disease. The invastigators propose here to perform a retrospective study in a clinically well-characterized candidemic patient, with the goal of recognizing host immunological factors and virulence-associated fungal molecules relevant in the onset and evolution of infection. The researchers' ultimate goal is to identify new diagnostic and/or prognostic benchmarks useful in clinical settings. By combining serologic and immunologic expertise with clinical expertise, the research team has real potential to generate new markers of host pathogenesis and immune response in candidemia and to inform prospective clinical trials to control this terrible disease
