Active clinical trials for "Pneumonia"

To investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of POL7080 co-administered with SoC during 10 to 14 days of treatment in VAP patients due to suspected or documented Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection

Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that the current oral protocol is sub-optimal and an enhanced protocol will decrease the incidence of hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP)in the acute, non-intubated, care-dependent, neurologically impaired, adult patient.

This is a study of safety and effectiveness of ceftaroline fosamil in children with Complicated Community-acquired Pneumonia receiving antibiotic therapy in the hospital.

The objectives of this study are to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical outcome of patients who have severe pneumonia caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) after a single intravenous administration of KBSA301 in addition of standard of care antibiotic treatment.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of CTX-4430 capsules taken orally once daily in normal healthy volunteers. CTX-4430 is being developed to treat lung inflammation that occurs in cystic fibrosis (CF). This study includes two-parts: Part 1 assesses single dosing; and Part 2 assesses repeat dosing for 14 days. Each part will include several dosages. During the single-dose part of the study, following a 14-day washout period, two cohorts will be assessed for potential effects on tolerability when fed at the time of dosing. For both parts of the study, blood samples will be collected for PK assay validation.

This is a double-blind randomized controlled trial assessing the efficacy of adjuvant corticosteroids in clinically diagnosed Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia in infants.

The investigators hypothesize that the scheduled use of bronchoscopy on a regular basis after inhalation injury in burn patients will improve outcome by providing pulmonary hygiene, decrease the incidence of pneumonia, and detect pneumonia earlier than standard treatment without bronchoscopy.

In this randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial we used positron emission tomography to determine if lovastatin or recombinant human activated protein C exhibit anti-inflammatory effects in humans following intrabronchial installation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS or endotoxin).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of GSK2231395A candidate vaccine in adults and elderly adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Subjects will be vaccinated 3 times with an interval of respectively 2 and 10 months.

This study is to understand how the inhaled form of amikacin is spread throughout the human body and how it is eliminated from the body and to make sure that giving an inhaled form of Amikacin to patients is safe and well tolerated
