Safety, Potential Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of PZ-601 in the Treatment of Complicated Skin...
Skin InfectionsThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential effect and safety of two different doses of PZ-601 and to compare this with another antibiotic that is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (also known as FDA) to treat adults with skin and skin structure infections.
Retapamulin Versus Placebo in Secondarily-Infected Traumatic Lesions (SITL)
Skin InfectionsBacterialThe purpose of Study TOC110977 is to demonstrate clinical superiority of Retapamulin ointment, 1%, over placebo in patients with secondarily-infected traumatic lesions, which includes secondarily-infected lacerations, abrasions and sutured wounds. Subjects 2 months of age and older will be treated with topical retapamulin or placebo ointment twice daily for 5 days. The primary endpoint of this study is the clinical response at follow-up (Day 12-14; 7-9 days after the end of therapy) in the intent-to-treat clinical population.
Ceftobiprole in the Treatment of Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Skin and Skin Structure Infections...
Skin DiseasesInfectious3 moreThe purpose of this study is to compare the clinical cure rate of ceftobiprole medocaril versus a comparator in the treatment of patients with complicated skin and skin structure infections. The study will also characterize the safety and tolerability of treatment with ceftobiprole medocaril in patients with complicated skin and skin structure infections.
Benchtop NMR Spectroscopy for Assessment of Clinical Human Pathologies (BRANCH-P STUDY)
DiabetesChronic Kidney Diseases26 moreThis research programme seeks to combine the resources of NHS primary care, with the leading spectroscopic work in low-magnetic fields of the Wilson Group (Nottingham Trent University) to demonstrate the potential for benchtop Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in human clinical pathology. This is an instrument assessment study for point of care viability which will also result in enhanced patient care (pending their consent) in blood screenings and metabolic health data.
Comparing the Intravenous Treatment of Skin Infections in Children, Home Versus Hospital
CellulitisMany children every year present to the Emergency Department (ED) at The Royal Children's Hospital (RCH) with cellulitis (skin infection). If it is mild, the children can go home with oral antibiotic treatment. If it is complicated and severe, these children are admitted to hospital for intravenous (IV, through a drip) antibiotic treatment. There is a middle group with uncomplicated moderate/severe cellulitis who require IV antibiotics but who are not acutely unwell. In order to determine whether it is just as effective for children with uncomplicated moderate to severe cellulitis to receive antibiotic treatment at home (via Hospital-In-The-Home) as it is to receive antibiotic treatment in hospital, there is a need to conduct a larger study and randomly assign children to receive either HITH or hospital ward care. The primary research question to be addressed is: In children with moderate/severe uncomplicated cellulitis, is the failure rate at 2 days following the first dose of antibiotic non-inferior for children treated with IV antibiotics at home compared to the failure rate at 2 days following the first dose for children treated with IV antibiotics in hospital?
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Treatment for Cellulite
CellulitisExtracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has been successfully introduced into the treatment of cellulite over the last years. The purpose of this study is to test the following hypotheses: (i) cellulite can be efficiently and safely treated using the radial extracorporeal shock wave device, Swiss Dolorclast (Electro Medical Systems S.A., Nyon, Switzerland); and (ii) the individual clinical outcome of cellulite treatment with ESWT can be predicted by means of the patient's individual cellulite grade at baseline, the patient's individual age, body mass index (BMI), weight, and/or height.
Efficacy and Safety of Dalbavancin for the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure...
AbscessWound Infection2 moreThe primary object is to compare the early clinical efficacy (after 48-72 hours of therapy) of dalbavancin to the comparator regimen (vancomycin with the option to switch to oral linezolid) for the treatment of patients with a suspected or proved gram-positive bacterial skin or skin structure infections.
GSK1322322 Versus Linezolid in the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection...
Skin InfectionsBacterialThis study will determine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of GSK1322322 verses Linezolid in subjects with Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infection (ABSSSI).
A Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Lytixar™ (LTX-109) on Uncomplicated, Gram-positive,...
Gram-positiveSkin Infections2 moreThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Lytixar™ applied topically to uncomplicated skin infections. Three dose levels of Lytixar™ (1%, 2% and 5%) versus placebo will be tested.
Oritavancin Versus IV Vancomycin for the Treatment of Participants With Acute Bacterial Skin and...
Wound InfectionAbscess2 moreThe purpose of this Phase 3 trial was to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oritavancin in acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs), including those caused by methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and to evaluate the potential economic benefit of oritavancin administered as a single 1200-milligram (mg) intravenous (IV) dose.
