Active clinical trials for "Infections"

The treatment of helicobacter pylori is very important. The routine treatment is quadruple therapy. In recent years, double therapy has appeared and the curative effect is fair. However, antacid generally uses proton pump inhibitor. The proton pump inhibitor needs double dose to achieve good antacid curative effect. The effect of vonoprazan used for inhibiting gastric acid is better than proton pump inhibitor. At present, many studies use vonoprazan instead of common proton pump inhibitor, but almost all use double dose of vonoprazan. In the previous study, we found that the effect of double dose of proton pump inhibitor can be achieved with 20mg QD of vonoprazan. Therefore, in this study, 20mg QD of vonoprazan was used to replace the double dose of proton pump inhibitor to observe the antibacterial effect of vonoprazan on Helicobacter pylori.

To compare the eradication success rate between 10-days sequential therapy and 7-days tailored therapy based on H. pylori culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

This phase II trial studies how well donor cytomegalovirus-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes work in treating patients with a cytomegalovirus infection that has come back or has not gotten better despite standard therapy. White blood cells from donors who have been exposed to cytomegalovirus may be effective in treating patients with a cytomegalovirus infection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CABENUVA (Long-acting Cabotegravir Plus Long-acting Rilpivirine) in patients with HIV infection and severe renal impairment. This study is considered research and is voluntary.

Appropriately, half of the global population is infected with H. pylori, and it is now recognized that it causes at least 95% of all gastric cancers. Currently, the main challenge in the field of H. pylori infection is the rapidly increasing antibiotic resistance worldwide, which is causing a decline in the effectiveness of currently available eradication regimens. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of different H. pylori vonoprazan-based regimens compared to the commonly used standard triple therapy composed of Clarithromycin, Amoxicillin, and Proton pump inhibitor to eradicate H. pylori infection in treatment-naive patients through the determination of each regimen eradication rate and reported safety profile

Background: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease that causes wart-like growths in the airways. These growths come back when removed; some people may need 2 or more surgeries per year to keep their airways clear. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To see if a drug called bevacizumab can reduce the number of surgeries needed in people with RRP. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older with recurrent RRP; they must need surgery to remove the growths in their airways. Design: Participants will be screened. Their ability to breathe and speak will be evaluated. They will have an endoscopy: a flexible tube with a light and camera will be inserted into their nose and throat. They will have a test of their heart function and imaging scans of their chest. Participants will have surgery to remove the growths in their airways. Bevacizumab is given through a small tube placed in a vein in the arm. After the surgery, participants will receive 11 doses of this drug: every 3 weeks for 3 doses, and then every 6 weeks for 8 more doses. They will come to the clinic for each dose; each visit will be about 8 hours. Tissue samples of the growths will be collected after the second treatment; this will be done under general anesthesia. Participants may undergo apheresis: Blood will be drawn from a needle in an arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the cells needed for the study. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a second needle. Follow-up will continue for 1 year after the last treatment.

This trial will be initiated to explore whether RBX2660 (REBYOTA®) could be suitable for administration by the practice of colonoscopy. More specifically, the purpose of this trial is to explore the safety and clinical effectiveness of RBX2660 when delivered by colonoscopy to adults with rCDI. The experience of physicians will be documented through a physician-experience questionnaire to explore the usability of RBX2660 in clinical practice for colonoscopic administration. Furthermore, to explore the patient-experience of RBX2660 treatment, each trial participant will be offered to undergo a structured interview.

Phase II/Phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet against Placebo in subjects hospitalized for pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Approximately 324 eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups. Group I: Ramatroban 75 mg tablet + Standard of care; Group II: Placebo + Standard of care. Phase 2 Primary Objective: To evaluate the safety of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects. Secondary Objective: To assess the efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects. Phase 3 Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects. Secondary Objective: To evaluate the safety of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects. Long COVID [Follow-up Phase- Objectives- (Phase 2 & 3)] To examine lipid mediators, specifically thromboxane A2, prostaglandin D2, F2-isoprostane and/or their metabolites in convalescent subjects after treatment. To assess the efficacy of Ramatroban administered during the acute illness in preventing/mitigating subsequent development of long COVID / PASC

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 14-day quadruple therapy based on fecal molecular antimicrobial susceptibility tests for the first-line eradication of H. pylori infection, thus, providing more evidence to inform the value of fecal antimicrobial susceptibility tests in the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection.

The study design is a randomized, open-label, clinical trial of omadacycline vs Standard of Care (SOC) antibiotics for bone and join infection (BJI) treatment. Study participants will have their BJI regimen chosen by their treating physicians, (typically Infectious Diseases for hardware and prosthetic joint infections, or multidisciplinary Limb Salvage team for diabetic foot infections) prior to enrollment. Then participants will be randomized to an omadacycline-containing regimen versus the a priori chosen SOC regimen. Participants must require between 4 and 12 weeks of therapy for their BJI. The exact duration of therapy will be decided by the participants' treating physician. At 12 weeks, if the treating physician wishes to extend therapy, participants receiving omadacycline will be transitioned to other SOC antibiotics. Once enrolled, participants will be followed via in-person clinic visits at the following intervals: weeks 0, 2, 4, 8, and 12. A final in-person visit will occur 2 weeks post-treatment completion. A phone survey will occur 3 months post-treatment completion. Participants in the SOC group will follow the same schedule. Oral once-daily dosing options for S. aureus and Coagulase negative Staphylococcus are essentially non-existent. Thus, omadacycline possesses a novel and advantageous option for BJI treatment. Its convenient dosing regimen will almost certainly be associated with improved adherence, and higher adherence may, in turn, improve clinical outcome. Investigators hypothesize that omadacycline will be a well-tolerated and efficacious oral antibiotic for BJIs and will be associated with improved adherence compared with standard of care oral antibiotics. Investigators believe omadacycline addresses the unmet need for an oral antibiotic that is well-tolerated and efficacious for use as a prolonged therapy for BJIs. To this aim, investigators will perform a randomized, open-label clinical trial of omadacycline to SOC antibiotics for BJIs.
