Active clinical trials for "Mycoses"

Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome (MF/SS) are cancers that form in the T cells, a type of white blood cell that helps with the body's immune response. A combination of drugs might be able to better treat these cancers than existing therapies. Objective: To test if the drugs interleukin-15 (IL-15) and mogamulizumab are safe and effective to treat people with Adult T-Cell Leukemia and Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome (ATLL or MF/SS). Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed ATLL or MF/SS that has not responded to at least one standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood (including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C), urine, lung, and heart tests Bone marrow tests (if needed): A needle inserted in the participants hip will take a small amount of marrow. Computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Tumor biopsy (if needed): A needle will take out a small piece of the participants tumor. Participants will get the study drugs by vein for up to six 28-day cycles. They will get IL-15 the first 5 days of each cycle. They will get mogamulizumab on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 15 of the other cycles. They will be hospitalized for 1 week in cycle 1. They may need to get a midline catheter. This is a soft tube put into a vein leading to the heart. Participants will have repeats of the screening tests throughout the study. After treatment, participants will have visits every 60 days for 6 months, every 90 days for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 2 years.

Single center, pilot study to evaluate the safety and efficacy topical administration of WP1220 in subjects with Stage I, II or III Mycosis Fungoides (CTCL)

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.

This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab and interferon gamma-1b work in treating patients with stage IB-IVB mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome that has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Interferon gamma-1b may boost the immune system activity. Giving pembrolizumab and interferon gamma-1b together may work better in treating patients with stage IB-IVB mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome.

This study will examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of NVXT in a new formulation in patients with mild-to-moderate fungal infection of the toe nail.

This single site study will examine plasma and alveolar compartment (AC) levels of posaconazole in cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) lung transplant recipients receiving routine post-operative anti-fungal prophylaxis. Invasive fungal infection rates will be assessed following transplantation.

Infections due to post transplant immune deficiency are a major problem following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT), particularly in patients receiving cord blood transplant (CB). Duration of neutropenia is one of the most important risk factor for invasive fungal infection (IFI). In this setting, Micafungin has been approved for antifungal prophylaxis for patients undergoing Allo-SCT. In a randomized, double-blind, comparative, phase III trial, the overall efficacy of micafungin was superior to that of fluconazole as antifungal prophylaxis during the neutropenic phase after Allo-SCT. However, very few patients in this study received a CB transplant. This is phase IIb, prospective, open-label, non-comparative study to assess the safety of micafungin when use in prevention of IFI in neutropenic patients receiving allo-SCT using CB as source of stem cells.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a form of heart-lung bypass used to support children who suffer heart or lung failure until whatever illness caused that failure can be treated and reversed. While on ECMO, children are at increased risk of infection, including fungal infection. Treatment for fungal infection includes not only antifungal medications but also removal of any large intravenous (IV) lines. Since ECMO requires large IV lines, proper treatment of fungal infections would be difficult if not impossible. The investigators believe that giving prophylactic antifungal medication to all children on ECMO may prevent fungal infections from developing in the first place. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication that works well against the most common fungal infections and has been shown to be safe in children. Unfortunately, the ECMO machine has the potential to significantly alter the drug levels of medications so the investigators do not know the proper dose of Fluconazole to give children on ECMO. Standard dosing of fluconazole is 12mg per kilogram of body weight given intravenously once daily. Based on preliminary data and modeling from other studies, the investigators think 25mg per kilogram given once weekly will achieve proper drug levels to prevent fungal infections. The investigators have obtained FDA approval to give this dose of fluconazole to children on ECMO who are enrolled in the study. Blood samples will be collected at specific times around the first and second fluconazole doses to describe the PK and drug extraction by the ECMO circuit.

This phase II clinical trial studies how well Akt inhibitor MK2206 works in treating patients with relapsed lymphoma. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 when given together with capecitabine in treating patients with refractory solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving RO4929097 together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
