Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Aspergillosis"

The objective of this study is to evaluate whether antifungal prophylaxis with isavuconazole can reduce the incidence of SARS-CoV-2-associated invasive aspergillosis in patients in the ICU (intensive care unit) with severe COVID-19 infection. The investigators will perform an interventional, double-blinded, randomized-controlled, multi-center study in patients with severe COVID-19 infection admitted to the ICU. Patients will be randomized to the isavuconazole prophylaxis plus standard of care (SOC) group or the placebo plus SOC group. Participants will receive isavuconazole or placebo for up to 28 days or until discharge from the hospital (whichever occurs first).

Compare the incidence of severe clinical exacerbations in the treatment of ABPA, between a strategy with a maintenance treatment and a conventional strategy without antifungal maintenance therapy.

This study aims to compare the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of voriconazole and anidulafungin in combination versus voriconazole alone in pediatric subjects aged 2 to 17 years with invasive aspergillosis.

The trial is planned as a multicentric, national, phase II, open-label trial to evaluate safety and tolerance of nebulized Liposomal Amphotericin B (Ambisome) for LMA patients during the induction therapy ,intensification, plus Allogeneic Haematopoietic Progenitor Cell transplant in due course, as well for patients diagnosed of several malignant haematologic diseases and treated with Allogeneic Haematopoietic Progenitor Cell Transplant

To assess the overall clinical yield - in terms of efficacy and safety endpoints of adding caspofungin as prophylaxis of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis in patients undergoing induction treatment for newly diagnosed acute leukemia To investigate the prognostic significance of Ptx3 at diagnosis and during the first chemotherapy cycle with respect to the development of IPA

The aim of the study is to compare the concordance between chest computerized tomography-scan (CTscan) and Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) for the description of the abnormalities seen in Allergic BronchoPulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA).

Phase IV, open-label study will evaluate effects of Benralizumab in the treatment of severe asthma in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis

This prescreening study is being conducted to diagnose ABPA in selected patients with asthma and to increase the potential number of eligible participants for the ongoing Study 601-0018 of PUR1900 in subjects with ABPA. See: NCT05667662. Additionally, this prescreening study may provide information that could assist the conduct of future studies conducted by Pulmatrix.

Mechanically ventilated patients are at risk of developing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), the diagnosis of which motivates the implementation of specific treatments, is one of the causes of VAP. The hypothesis of the study is that the incidence of IPA is 12.4%. For each patient presenting with a suspicion of VAP and requiring a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), the diagnosis of API will be evaluated by biological examinations performed on blood and BAL. Medical and surgical history as well as clinical and biological data will be collected for 28 days or until discharge from the ICU.

The aim of this research project is to compare the results of Aspergillus specific test methods Aspergillus Galactomannan Enzyme Immunoassay (GM-EIA), Aspergillus polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Aspergillus Galactomannan Lateral Flow Assay (LFA) from different respiratory tract secretions. The bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and bronchial secretions (NBL) are compared in the same examination for each patient.
