Active clinical trials for "Trichomonas Infections"

This study aims to evaluate different screening strategies to decrease the burden of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) among pregnant women, and reduce adverse birth outcomes. In turn it aims to evaluate the cost per pregnant woman screened and treated, cost of adverse birth outcomes, and cost-effectiveness per sexually transmitted infection (STI) and disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) averted. Furthermore, this study will incorporate a vaginal microbiome sub-study aimed to investigate the relationship between the vaginal microbiome and persistent Chlamydial infections in pregnant women. Aim 1 and 2: The intervention includes diagnostic testing at a woman's first antenatal care visit using the Xpert® platform with same-day treatment for Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis and Trichomonas vaginalis infection with either a test-of-cure three weeks post-treatment (arm 1) or a repeat test at 30-34 weeks gestation (arm 2) compared to the standard of care, i.e. syndromic management (arm 3). Aim 3: Case-control study to investigate role vaginal microbiome in STI treatment outcomes

A prospective interventional study to evaluate a strategy of point-of-care testing for sexually transmitted infections including chlamydia, gonorrhoea, trichomoniasis, syphilis, and Hepatitis B with comprehensive case management including partner notification in antenatal settings in Harare province, Zimbabwe.

We compare two oral tinidazole regimens for refractory trichomonas vaginitis.

The investigators are trying a combination vaginal product of higher dose metronidazole combined with miconazole to see if it is effective in treating vaginal trichomonas.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the 2 gram single dose of metronidazole is as effective as the 7 day 500 mg BID dose for treatment of Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) among HIV-infected women.

This is a Phase 3, multi-center, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, delayed treatment, double-blind, study to evaluate the effectiveness, and safety of a single, oral dose of Solosec® containing 2 grams of secnidazole in female patients with trichomoniasis.

The objective of this study was to prove the bioequivalence of Roxane Laboratories' Tinidazole 500 mg Tablet under fed conditions.

The overall goal of this project is to determine the influence of patient treatment and host factors on repeat Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) infections among HIV-negative women

Malaria in pregnancy has devastating consequences for mother and foetus. WHO recommends intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy (IPTp) with sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) for asymptomatic women, but high-level parasite resistance to SP threatens its efficacy. Dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) has the potential to replace SP for IPTp. However, the DP strategy has not been found to be superior to SP for reducing the incidence of low birthweight (LBW), small-for-gestational age (SGA), or preterm birth. This may be the result of sulphadoxine having antibacterial properties; it is derived from sulphonamide, which have been used for decades to treat curable STIs/RTIs. However, SP is unlikely to be curative of STIs/RTIs, nor highly effective against malaria parasites. Thus, combination treatment that contains a more efficacious antimalarial and a more efficacious anti-STI/RTI may produce better birth outcomes. The investigators will therefore determine whether combining SP with metronidazole (MTZ) or, separately, DP with MTZ can improve birth outcomes more than SP alone, potentially paving the way for integrated control strategies that will reduce the dual burden of malaria and curable STIs/RTIs. This is an individually-randomized, 3-arm, partially-placebo controlled superiority trial comparing the efficacy, safety and tolerance of IPTp-SP versus IPTp-SP with MTZ, or IPTp-DP with MTZ to reduce adverse birth outcomes attributable to malaria and curable STIs/RTIs in 5,436 women in the Nchelenge District of Zambia.

This research study is about vaginal infections such as bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections, and trichomoniasis. Usually, these infections can be treated with medication, but sometimes they come back after treatment. Researchers want to know if using vaginal suppositories can decrease the risk of vaginal infections. Participants will include 234 women who are sexually active (greater than or equal to 4 episodes of sex with men during the past month), HIV-negative, 18 to 45 years old, with bacterial infection [vaginosis and/or vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) and/or Trichomonas vaginalis] detected by laboratory testing at a screening visit. Women will receive vaginal suppositories containing drug or inactive ingredients (placebo). Participation in the study will be about 12 months. Study procedures include: urine and blood tests, physical exams, and questionnaires.
