Active clinical trials for "Infections"

Multi-center, Randomized, Double blind, Controlled Parallel-group Comparative Phase 3 Clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of Pelubiprofen Compared to Loxoprofen in patients with Acute upper respiratory infection.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of voxilaprevir (formerly GS-9857) alone or with sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) fixed dose combination (FDC) and antiviral activity of voxilaprevir in adults with genotype 1, 2, 3, 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. All participants will be monitored for up to 48 weeks after the last dose.

The study is a prospective, open randomized, non-inferiority trial with two parallel groups, comparing 6 weeks versus 12 weeks of antibiotic treatment following surgery procedure (debridement and retention, 1-stage or 2 stage exchange). The duration of the treatment antibiotic of prosthetic joint infections is only based on experts' opinion ; this one varies from 6 weeks to several months according to the customs of the influencer. The principal aim of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of 6 weeks versus 12 weeks antibiotic therapy duration, both associated with surgical procedure (debridement and retention of implant, one-stage or two stages exchange), in PJI treatment. The study concerns 410 men or women of more than 18 years include in 34 centres in France. The duration of the study is of 4 years.

All trauma patients admitted to certain Intensive Care Units (ICU) will have Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nasal swabs performed to determine MRSA colonization status. Only those patients who are determined to be colonized with MRSA at admission will be included in the study. All patients must be age 18 and older, admitted directly to the ICU from either the Emergency Department or the operating room with trauma-related injuries, and must not have active or recent known history of MRSA infections. Once patients have been determined to be colonized with MRSA, they will be randomized to receive "decolonization" treatment or placebo. "Decolonization" treatment will include Chlorhexidine baths and Mupirocin ointment to both nares for 5 days and placebo will entail "routine" soap baths and Lubricating Jelly. Both groups will be kept on standard contact precautions throughout the course of the study. Repeat nasal swabs will be performed at the completion of the treatment regimen to determine the efficacy. Patients will be screened for invasive MRSA infections as dictated by their clinical course. The primary outcome measure will be invasive MRSA infection rate (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, bacteremia and soft tissue infection). Secondary endpoints include hospital lengths of stay, ICU lengths of stay, mechanical ventilatory support requirements, colonization status at the end of treatment, and death rates. As determined by our power analysis, we aim to enroll 75 patients in each arm over the course of 12-24 months.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy of treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) therapy at the time of liver transplantation and through 4 weeks posttransplant in adults with genotype 1 or 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who are undergoing primary liver transplantation.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) or LDV/SOF plus GS-9669 in treatment-naive or treatment-experienced participants with chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. A total of 90 participants are planned to be enrolled in the study for 8 weeks of treatment, approximately 60 having had prior treatment with a regimen containing pegylated interferon (PEG) and RBV for ≥ 12 weeks. Randomization will be stratified by treatment-naive versus treatment-experienced and by HCV genotype (1a versus 1b).

Deep sea water (DSW) is characterized by high purity, low temperature, high nutrients and minerals and is obtained from the water flows 200 meters under the surface of the sea. The inhibition of H. pylori growth by DSW has been demonstrated in vitro study. However, up to now, there is few randomized control study to evaluate the anti-bacterial effects of ingesting DSW in patients with H. pylori infection. The aims of this study are: to evaluate the anti-bacterial effects of ingesting DSW in patients with H. pylori infection; to evaluate the patient adherence and adverse effects of ingesting DSW.

IQP-AS-105, is a food supplement derived from garlic (Allium sativum). The objective of this study is to evaluate the possibilities of clinical use of IQP-AS-105 as a preventive medicine, based on its ability to enhance the immune system responses

A study of the safety and pharmacokinetics of solithromycin capsules in adolescents

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF)/ledipasvir (LDV) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet with or without ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive or treatment-experienced Japanese participants with chronic genotype 1 HCV infection. Participants receive 12 weeks of treatment and continue assessments during a 24-week posttreatment follow-up period.
