Active clinical trials for "Infections"

Patients with otolaryngological diseases caused by upper respiratory tract infections, including allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, secretory otitis media, and oblate gland hypertrophy, were treated with all drugs from Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, and Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to December 2022. According to the treatment methods, the patients were divided into panfosol + conventional treatment group and conventional treatment group for multicenter retrospective analysis.

With the advent of direct acting antiviral (DAA) treatment in 2013, HCV elimination has become feasible. Still, achieving HCV elimination in resource-limited countries appears to be arduous as several challenges need to be addressed. In remote settings, absence of HCV VL testing to identify those who require DAA and to monitor DAA success is a first issue. As of today, HCV VL testing is still restricted to central facilities in major cities. Blood sampling using DBS is an appealing option to allow HCV VL monitoring in remote settings as this option is inexpensive, does not require a cold chain for storage and transportation of the samples and can be implemented rapidly. A second issue is DAA access that remains scarce due to logistical and financial limitations. However, more affordable generic DAA, some of them being WHO pre-qualified, are now available. Vietnam is amongst the 20 countries with the highest HCV burden with an estimate of 1.5 million chronic HCV-infected people (HCV prevalence: 1.1%). As observed in many other settings, HCV prevalence is higher among vulnerable populations such as HIV-infected individuals and people who inject drugs (PWID). Vietnam has the will to increase access to DAA in the whole country. However, in remote settings, only some clinical sites will be allowed to dispense DAA. Discussions with the MoH of Vietnam brought to our knowledge that not all clinical sites caring for HIV patients and providing ART will dispense DAA. Thus, some HIV-HCV co-infected patients will be followed in clinical sites where they will receive both antiretroviral therapy and DAA, while some other patients will continue to be followed for HIV in their usual clinical site but will be asked to visit another clinical site for HCV care and to receive DAA. We anticipate that the proportion of patients who will comply with the 12-week DAA will be lower in patients followed for HIV and HCV in two clinical sites than in those followed in a single clinical site.

Study to assess the efficacy and safety of XC8, film-coated tablets, 10 mg in comparison with placebo in patients with dry non-productive cough against acute respiratory infection.

Tumor resection and prosthetic replacement have become the treatments of choice for malignant bone tumors. Infections are the main cause of failure of limb salvage surgeries. Therefore, treatment of infections around prostheses after limb salvage is important, but is also challenging. Our research team designed a "domino" sequential treatment plan to treat postoperative infections around tumor prostheses and evaluated its efficacy.

Our study aims to determine the prevalence of anosmia in patients SARS-Cov-2/Covid-19 infection (both by symptom reporting and smell testing), the efficacy of early olfactory training for the treatment of anosmia caused by infection and the long-term impact of smell dysfunction with a one-year follow-up.

The study is planned to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Ingavirin®, syrup, 30 mg/5 ml, in the treatment of influenza or other acute respiratory infections in children from 6 months to 2 years compared with placebo.

The human microbiota corresponds to an extremely rich and varied set of microorganisms that colonize our various epitheliums from birth, including the intestine, lungs and skin, where they interact continuously with our immune system. Changes in microbial composition and function, termed dysbiosis, have been linked to alterations in immune responses and to disease development, such as psoriasis. Recent research has shown that the gut microbiota can condition the therapeutic response to checkpoint inhibitors and that fecal microbiota transplant overcomes resistance to these therapy, suggesting a direct role for the microbiota in the ability to shape a therapeutic immune response. Antibiotic exposure during the course of cancer therapy negatively correlates with patients' response to anti-PD-1 treatment response, thus highlighting the link between the enrichment of specific microbial taxa in intestines and the response to immunotherapy. This observation suggests that treatments capable of modulating microbial networks and promoting specific bacterial clades may modulate the host's immune response. Hence, beyond their expected effect in the targeted tissue, part of the therapeutic effect of drugs could rely on this mechanism. In psoriasis patients, observational studies suggest that gut microbiome is altered differently after the use of anti-IL17 or anti-IL23 biologic agents. Main objective: To determine the evolution of microbial composition of fecal samples issued to patients who responded to a biologic agent (IL-17 inhibitors, IL-23 inhibitors) and have stopped their treatment for 2 to 4 weeks before the index date, at baseline and 6 months or clinical relapse after treatment discontinuation Design of the study: Prospective french multicentre observational cohort study Population of study participants: Patients with psoriasis in remission after IL23i or IL17inhibitor treatments and who have stopped their medication for 2 to 4 weeks. Number of participants included: 50 adult patients considered in remission and have stopped for at least 2 weeks and a maximum of 4 weeks, one of the following biologic agent: secukinumab, ixekizumab, brodalumab, bimekizumab, guselkumab, tildrakizumab, or risankizumab

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Ingavirin ® dosed 30 mg daily is effective and safe in the treatment of influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections in the course of standard therapy in 3-6 years old patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-493/ABT-530 in adults with genotype 2 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ABT-493/ABT-530 following 12 weeks of treatment in adults with chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection genotype 1, 2, 4, 5 or 6 infection and compensated cirrhosis.
