Active clinical trials for "Infections"

This is an open label, randomized-controlled, comparative trial. HBV and HCV dually infected patients with negative hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) were enrolled in the study. The definition of HBV and HCV dual infection included seropositivity of HCV antibody (anti-HCV) and HBsAg for more than 6 months, together with positive serum HCV RNA. Eligible subjects were randomized into 2 groups at treatment initiation. Subjects who were randomized into the genotype guided therapy (GGT) group received Peg-IFN and standard dose RBV (1200 mg/day) for 48 weeks in subjects infected with HCV genotype 1 or Peg-IFN and low dose RBV (800 mg/day) for 24 weeks in subjects infected with HCV genotype 2/3; the patients were then followed for 6 months. For subjects who were randomized into the response guided therapy (RGT) group, the duration of Peg-IFN and RBV therapy was abbreviated to 24 weeks in subjects with HCV genotype 1, a pre-treatment low viral load (LVL, < 400000 IU/mL) and RVR (defined asHCV RNA <50 IU/mL at 4th week of therapy); the duration was 16 weeks in subjects with HCV genotype 2/3 and RVR.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a supplement in which ellagic acid plus annona muricata are combined, may modulate the immune response to high risk HPV infection. Sixty women will be enrolled in a randomized, controlled study, having a histological diagnosis of L-SIL correlated with high rish HPV types infection. Main outcome measure is the activation of onco suppressor protein by the supplement and secondary outcome is the clearance of HPV infection in the treated group.

This is a prospective study to determine the incidence, morbidity, mortality and predisposing factors for the reactivation of hepatitis B virus replication during direct anti-HCV treatment of HCV/HBV co-infection patients.

To compare the plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of q24h versus q12h dosing of abacavir in HIV-1-infected infants and children aged 3 months to 36 months The secondary objectives of PENTA15 were: To compare the plasma PK parameters of q24h versus q12h dosing of lamivudine in HIV-1-infected infants and children aged 3 months to 36 months who were receiving lamivudine in combination with abacavir To compare age-related differences in the PK parameters of q24h versus q12h dosing of abacavir and lamivudine infants and children in 3 age groups (≥3 to <12 months, ≥12 to <24 months and ≥24 to <36 months) To describe child and family acceptability of and adherence to q24h compared to q12h dosage regimens of abacavir and lamivudine

This is a biomedical research, prospective, mono centric, tolerance study Of the administration of subcutaneous teicoplanin in the treatment of osteoarticular infections.

This will be an open label pilot randomized controlled clinical trial. Women undergoing cesarean delivery will be randomized to have standard wound dressing care or chlorohexidine gluconate (CHG) impregnated wound dressing (ReliaTect™ Post-Op Dressing).

Pilot explanatory, randomized, open label, controlled trial. Critically ill patients which will demand placement of invasive devices for organ support (endotracheal tube, central venous catheter and urinary Foley catheter) will be randomized 1:1 to receive coated (Bactiguard®) or habitual (non-coated) devices.

Prospective, randomized Study of tunneled cuffed hemodialysis catheter removal and delayed replacement, versus exchange over a guidewire to treat catheter related blood stream infection

This study evaluates surgical site complications in subjects undergoing revision of a total knee arthroplasty when closed incision negative pressure therapy is used to manage the closed incision, as compared to a standard of care dressing.
