Active clinical trials for "Otitis"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of FST-201 compared to Ciprodex in the treatment of acute otitis externa. This trial is designed to enable filing of a New Drug Application in support of FST-201 for the indication of acute otitis externa.

The objective of this study is to clinically develop and evaluate a machine learning approach to improve the performance and data interpretation of the PhotoniCare OtoSight Middle Ear Scope in pediatric patients presenting at the primary care office for suspected ear infections. In this observational study, results of OtoSight imaging will not affect patient standard of care.

The objective of this study is to compare the relative efficacy and safety of the test formulation of ciprofloxacin 0.3%/dexamethasone 0.1% sterile otic suspension (Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc.) to the already-marketed formulation CIPRODEX® (ciprofloxacin 0.3%/dexamethasone 0.1%) sterile otic suspension (Alcon) in the treatment of acute bacterial otitis externa.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of FST-201 compared to vehicle in the treatment of acute fungal otitis externa. This trial is designed to enable filing of a New Drug Application in support of FST-201 for the indication of acute fungal otitis externa.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of three different surgical treatments (1. Bilateral myringotomy and tube insertion (M&T); 2. Adenoidectomy and bilateral myringotomy (A&T); 3. Adenoidectomy with myringotomy and tympanostomy tube insertion (A-M&T)) in reducing subsequent episodes of middle ear disease and hearing loss caused by the fluid in the middle ear in children aged 24-47 months. The fluid in the middle ear is of at least three months' duration and unresponsive to standardized, recent antimicrobial treatment. The children are assigned to one of the three surgical treatments. After surgery, they are followed with examinations monthly and at the time of intercurrent infections for three years.

The investigators will study whether, in young children with acute otitis media (AOM), shortening length of antibiotic treatment as a strategy for reducing antimicrobial resistance provides satisfactory clinical outcome. This is a Phase 2b multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in 600 children aged 6 through 23 months comparing the efficacy of consistent reduced-duration antimicrobial treatment (5 days) with that of consistent standard-duration treatment (10 days) for each episode of AOM developing during a single respiratory season (October 1 through May 31).

The purpose of this study is to determine if Moxidex otic solution is safe and effective in treating middle ear infections in patients with ear tubes.

Children ages 2 months to less than 19 years old, who have been diagnosed with a middle ear infection may receive either medicated ear drops (AR01) or glycerin (placebo) ear drops. The patient or caregiver will measure the amount of ear pain before and after the ear drops to establish if the medicated ear drops decrease the amount of pain more than the placebo ear drops. The subject may leave the clinic 60 minutes after the first dose. The ear drops can be used up to 4 days, as needed for ear pain.

The clinical activity of telithromycin vs. cefuroxime in children with acute infections of the middle ear, ages 6 months to 59 months old will be studied.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a single application of AL-60371/AL-817 Otic Suspension relative to ototopical CIPRODEX for sustained clinical cure, microbiological success, and time to cessation of otorrhea.
