Active clinical trials for "Healthcare-Associated Pneumonia"

This study will compare the safety and efficacy of a tigecycline regimen versus an imipenem/cilastatin regimen for the treatment of subjects who are hospitalized with hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP). At least 70% of enrolled subjects will have ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Two dose levels of tigecycline will be assessed and compared to imipenem/cilastatin in parallel. Subjects will receive intravenous therapy from a minimum of 7 & up to 14 consecutive days, the exact duration will be at the decision of the investigator based on the subject's condition. Additional protocol specified antibiotics may be given to ensure appropriate coverage. A final assessment at test-of-cure (TOC) visit will be done 10 to 21 days after the last day of therapy. The total duration of subject participation will be between 17 and 44 days, including a follow up period of 30 days after the last day of therapy for SAEs. Subjects will be followed for safety and efficacy. The safety assessment will include: physical examinations, vital signs, assessment of the clinical signs and symptoms of pneumonia, collection of adverse events, 12-lead ECG, collection of samples for hematology, serum chemistries, and coagulation parameters, & a serum or urine pregnancy test before study entry for women of childbearing potential. The clinical and microbiological efficacy will both be evaluated.

A Respiratory infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with a major risk of viral pneumonia that can lead to respiratory distress requiring resuscitation. In the most severe forms, it may require mechanical ventilation or even lead to an acute respiratory distress syndrome with a particularly poor prognosis. The SARS-CoV2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity and belongs to the beta genus of Coronaviruses. SARS-CoV2 is responsible for the third epidemic in less than twenty years secondary to a Coronavirus (SARS-CoV then MERS-CoV) and if the mortality associated with it is lower than that of previous strains, notably MERS-CoV, its spread is considerably big. As a result, the number of patients developing respiratory distress requiring invasive mechanical ventilation is high, with prolonged ventilation duration in these situations

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical cure rates of two dosing regimens of iclaprim with vancomycin (every 12 hours [q12h]) in the treatment of patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), or health-care-associated pneumonia (HCAP) suspected or confirmed to be due to Gram-positive pathogens.

This study is designed to provide evidence of efficacy of cefiderocol in the treatment of serious infections in adult patients caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens.

The primary objective of this study is to compare all-cause mortality at Day 14 in participants receiving cefiderocol with participants receiving the comparator, meropenem, in adults with hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia (HABP), ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (VABP), or healthcare-associated bacterial pneumonia (HCABP) caused by Gram-negative pathogens.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of Zavicefta once released into the markets in Korea. This study is to learn about Zavicefta in patients with difficult types of infections in the abdomen, urinary tract and pneumonia which could have come from hospitalizations. This study was required by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) of Korea's regulations.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of doripenem in patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP).

Acinetobacter baumannii causes severe infections (pneumonia, bacteremia, organ space) with high lethality in hospitalised critically ill patients. It can acquire resistance to all classes of antibiotics (multidrug resistance, MDR) except an 'old' drug, colistin, which may be the only therapeutic option. However, colistin is not registered for this indication. The addition of rifampicin to colistin has been shown to be synergistic in vitro, and may be promising in vivo, but this combination has not been studied in comparison with colistin alone. The purpose of this randomised, open-label, multicentre clinical trial is to assess whether the association of colistin and rifampicin reduces significantly the mortality of patients with severe MDR A. baumannii infections compared with colistin alone. The trial will enroll 210 patients from intensive care units (ICU) of five tertiary care hospitals where MDR A. baumannii infection is endemic with epidemic phases. Patients will be randomly allocated to either colistin alone (control arm) or colistin plus rifampicin (experimental arm). Primary end point is overall mortality, defined as death occurring within 30 days from randomisation. Secondary end points will be disease-specific death, microbiological eradication, hospitalization length, emergence of resistance to colistin during treatment.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of Ceftazidime-Avibactam compared to Meropenem for treating hospitalized adults with nosocomial pneumonia including ventilator-associated pneumonia

This is a prospective, single arm, open-label, multi-center clinical study evaluating the effectiveness and safety of CAZ-AVI in participants with HAP (including VAP), who have initiated treatment with CAZ-AVI in an inpatient hospital setting. The duration of antibiotic treatment with the CAZ-AVI is 7-14 days. Participants must receive intravenously (IV) CAZ-AVI in the hospital for at least 7 full days. There are no formal hypothesis tests planned for this study. The number and percent of participants having clinical cure, failure, and indeterminate at TOC visit in the cMITT analysis population will be summarized.
