Active clinical trials for "Mycoses"

The purpose of this study is to describe representative real-world patterns of care for the management of invasive fungal infections (IFIs), including invasive mold infection (IMI). Specifically, the study goals are to examine real world patient characteristics and treatment patterns, associated healthcare resource utilization, and outcomes associated with use of mold-active triazoles (MATs) to treat invasive fungal infections (IFIs).

This is a structured web-based survey in selected hospitals with intensive care units in Berlin- Brandenburg that will focus on the analysis of current knowledge in ICUs in the field of invasive mycoses.

This study is to evaluate safety and prophylaxis effect of micafungin after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Micafungin is administered until confirmation of neutrophil engraftment or treatment failure.

This study will find how weight affects the dosing of a drug called anidulafungin. Currently, the amount of anidulafungin a patient receives is the same regardless of the patient's weight. BMI groups were for enrollment purposes only and not used for ordinal data analysis.

Assessment of safety and efficacy of voriconazole in real-life setting in the treatment of high risk patients with invasive fungal infections. The study is conducted in Slovakia only.

An assessment of the efficacy and safety of Travogen cream and Travocort cream in the treatment of local skin mycoses

The purpose of this postmarketing surveillance study is to collect an extensive body of data in a large patient population in every day life to investigate the safety and efficacy of NOXAFIL® (posaconazole) in the treatment of invasive fungal disease.

Background: Fungal infections of the lung (pneumonia) can be caused by molds, such as Aspergillus and Zygomycetes, but these causes are often difficult for a doctor to diagnose. Early and accurate diagnosis of these infections can help doctors to select the correct medicines for proper treatment. A number of methods are used to diagnose fungal pneumonia. Ones that are commonly used in clinical practice include radiographic imaging (chest X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans), blood tests, and cultures taken from fluid from the lungs (broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL) fluid). Other new methods may improve the diagnosis of fungal pneumonias. These methods include tests that can detect DNA from the fungal germ in blood and BAL fluid of some patients with these infections. Objectives: To help develop better and more accurate methods of diagnosing fungal lung infections. To detect fungal DNA and chemicals in the bloodstream and BAL fluid of immunocompromised patients with pneumonia. Eligibility: - Immunocompromised patients who are currently enrolled in another NIH protocol and who have a CT scan that shows a possible fungal infection of the lung. Design: Researchers will review patients' existing medical records and CT scans, and current pneumonia treatment plans. Patients will provide blood and BAL samples for the duration of their treatment for pneumonia, as required by researchers. Additional CT scans will not be performed, except as part of existing treatment plans.

This is a non-comparative, open, multisite prospective estimation study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of caspofungin in the prophylactic treatment of adults who have received an orthotopic liver transplant and are at high risk of developing an invasive fungal infection. It is expected that the proportion of high-risk liver transplant recipients who develop a documented (proven or probable per European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Mycoses Study Group [EORTC/MSG] modified criteria) invasive fungal infection during the first 100 days after the onset of prophylaxis with caspofungin will be lower than 15%. It is also expected that the incidence of serious drug-related adverse events will be less than 25%.

To collect and summarize information on the diagnosis, management, and clinical and mycological outcomes of patients with systemic fungal infections in order to better understand the effectiveness of antifungals in the treatment of Systemic Fungal Infections (SFI) in India.
