Active clinical trials for "Communicable Diseases"

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the treatment with sofosbuvir velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) with ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) Class C cirrhosis.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability of treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in adults with chronic HCV infection who are on dialysis for ESRD.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

The primary objective is to evaluate the anti-viral effect and safety of different doses of inhaled ALX-0171 in subjects hospitalized for Respiratory Syncytial Virus Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (RSV LRTI). The secondary objective is to evaluate the clinical activity, pharmacokinetic (PK) properties, pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and immunogenicity of different doses of inhaled ALX-0171.

This is a multi-center, randomized study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 200 mg CAMB and 400 mg CAMB compared with a single 150 mg dose of fluconazole in the treatment of moderate to severe VVC.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is highly associated with gastrointestinal disorders, including peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer, and gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.1 In 1994, H. pylori was classified as a group carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Since then, many consensus conferences and clinical guidelines worldwide have been established for the treatment of H. pylori infection. Despite H. pylori infecting an estimated 50% of the global population,there is no universally effective regimen in everyday clinical practice. The current European Helicobacter Study Group Guidelines for the first line empirical treatment of the H. pylori infection propose a variety of treatment strategies, as optimal treatment of H. pylori infection requires careful attention to local antibiotic resistance and eradication patterns. Most recently, the Toronto Consensus for the Treatment of Helicobacter pylori Infection in Adults strongly recommended that all H. pylori eradication regimens now be given for 14 days. Recommended first-line strategies include concomitant nonbismuth quadruple therapy (proton pump inhibitor [PPI] + amoxicillin + metronidazole + clarithromycin [PAMC]) and traditional bismuth quadruple therapy (PPI + bismuth + metronidazole + tetracycline [PBMT]).The aforementioned statement by an international working group of specialists chosen by the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology is of the outmost importance, especially in countries with increased antibiotic resistance, like Greece, with resistance rates >20% to clarithromycin and >40% to metronidazole.

This study will evaluate the ecological impact on the intestinal microbiota and compare the safety and efficacy of temocillin compared to cefotaxime, in empiric treatment of febrile UTI. Half of participants will receive temocillin and the other half will receive cefotaxime.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 8 and 12 weeks of treatment with a fixed dose combination (FDC) of elbasvir (EBR) 50 mg + grazoprevir (GZR) 100 mg (i.e., MK-5172A) as assessed by the percentage of participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 4 infection that achieve sustained virologic response (HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] < Lower Limit of Quantification [LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the end of study therapy (SVR12). This study also evaluated the safety and tolerability of EBR/GZR.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive adults with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

This was a randomized, multicenter, multinational, double-blind study comparing the efficacy and safety of plazomicin compared with meropenem followed by optional oral (PO) therapy in the treatment of cUTI, including AP, in adults.
