361 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of ATM-AVI for the possible treatment of infections caused by a type of bacteria called gram-negative bacteria. The study medicine is a combination of an antibiotic, aztreonam (ATM), and another medicine, avibactam (AVI), which is used to help stop bacteria from being resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotics are medicines that fights bacteria and infections. The study will include newborns and infants up to 9 months of age who are admitted in the hospital. The study is conducted in 2 parts: Part A and Part B. In Part A, all participants will receive a single intravenous (injected directly into a vein) infusion of ATM-AVI. This is to study the safety and effects of a single amount. In Part B, all participants will receive multiple intravenous infusions of ATM-AVI as treatment for a possible or confirmed infection with gram-negative bacteria.

Bacterial Infections
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of using thermal images to diagnose bacterial pneumonia instead of a chest x-ray in the future. More specifically, the objectives of this study are: 1) to determine if thermal imaging, using a commercial thermal camera can detect areas of heat emitted from the chest in similar locations to where a chest X-ray shows focal consolidation consistent with bacterial pneumonia; 2) to evaluate whether changes in heat emitted from the chest changes over time if it is possible to obtain serial images of the chest.
Infections, Bacterial, Pneumonia, Bacterial
The purpose of this Phase 1 trial is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of oritavancin in patients \<18 years old with a confirmed or suspected bacterial infection.
Gram Positive Bacterial Infections
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common vaginal infection characterized by a pathologic shift in the normal vaginal flora. BV has been associated with a number of poor reproductive outcomes, including infertility, preterm labor and premature rupture of membranes. If BV does disrupt normal embryologic development, then the treatment of BV prior to conception may improve implantation rates and other pregnancy outcomes in the infertile population. This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which infertile women undergoing intrauterine insemination or embryo transfer are screened for BV prior to treatment. Those patients who screen positive for BV will then be randomized into the treatment arm(metronidazole 500mg by mouth twice daily for 7 days) or the control arm (placebo by mouth twice daily for 7 days). The primary outcome, positive pregnancy test rate (i.e. biochemical pregnancy rate), will then be assessed. Secondary outcomes, such as clinical pregnancy rate, miscarriage rate, and live birth rate will also be examined.
Vaginosis, Bacterial, Infertility, Miscarriage
Adolescent subjects hospitalized for the treatment of bacterial infections will be given 1 gram of dalbavancin through their veins and levels of dalbavancin in blood and urine will be measured at different time points. Safety labs will also be checked on a regular basis to assess the safety of dalbavancin.
Bacterial Infections
This study will examine the response of white blood cells to bacterial infection in blood taken from the umbilical cords of newly delivered infants. The blood samples will be taken from both male infants who were carried to term and male infants who were born prematurely, and genetic studies will compare these blood samples to samples drawn from healthy adult male volunteers. The study is designed to look at the ways in which the immune systems of newborn infants respond to bacterial infection. Participants in this study will be pregnant Chinese women admitted to the labor ward of the Prince of Wales Hospital (Sha Tin district of New Territories, Hong Kong SAR) for normal spontaneous delivery. Those with known blood-borne infectious diseases such as HIV and hepatitis B will be excluded from this study. Cord blood and placenta samples will be collected after the completion of delivery. The samples collected for this study will be restricted to male newborns. A comparison group of blood samples will be drawn from healthy male adults between 25 and 35 years of age....
Prematurity, Histologic Chorioamnionitis
RATIONALE: A donor stem cell transplant can lower the body's immune system, making it difficult to fight off infection. Giving antibiotics, such as moxifloxacin, may help prevent bacterial infections in patients who have recently undergone donor stem cell transplant. It is not yet known whether moxifloxacin is more effective than a placebo in preventing bacterial infections in patients who have recently undergone donor stem cell transplant. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying moxifloxacin to see how well it works compared with a placebo in preventing bacterial infections in patients who have recently undergone donor stem cell transplant.
Breast Cancer, Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders, Gestational Trophoblastic Tumor, Infection, Leukemia, Lymphoma, Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, Neuroblastoma, Ovarian Cancer, Testicular Germ Cell Tumor
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of levofloxacin administered to children as therapy for acute bacterial infection.
Musculoskeletal Diseases
This study compares 2 different treatments administered to try to prevent serious bacterial infections (such as pneumonia) in HIV-positive children. A combination of drugs (azithromycin plus atovaquone) will be compared to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SMX/TMP) alone. This study also evaluates the long-term safety and tolerance of these different drugs. SMX/TMP is a commonly prescribed drug for the prevention of bacterial infections. However, the combination of azithromycin and atovaquone may be safer and more effective than SMX/TMP. This study compares the 2 treatments.
Bacterial Infections, Pneumonia, Pneumocystis Carinii, HIV Infections
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the abilities of Cystatin C (CysC) and CysC-based estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) equations to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles of meropenem and cefepime relative to Serum Creatinine (SCR), Serum Creatinine based Equation (SCRE)and iohexol at the population and individual levels in critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections. We hypothesize that CysC and CysC-based eGFR equations will characterize the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime at the population and individual levels with greater accuracy and precision than SCR and SCREs. Iohexol will be administered to patients enrolled in the study and serve as the reference indicator of measured Glomerular Filtration Rate (mGFR), which is the gold standard assessment of kidney function. We hypothesize that the predictive performances of CysC and CysC-based eGFR equations in estimating the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime at the population and individual levels will be comparable to iohexol. The information obtained in this study will be used to develop PK/pharmacodynamics (PD) optimized meropenem and cefepime dosing schemes based on the renal function biomarker population PK (PopPK) model with the best predictive performance for clinical use in the treatment of critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections and varying degrees of renal function. The primary objective of this study is to compare the abilities of renal function biomarkers (CysC, CysC-based eGFR equations, SCR, SCREs) relative to iohexol to characterize the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime in critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections.

Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections
This is a Phase 1, single center study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of three dose-level groups of WCK 6777 (ERT and ZID combination), and two dose-level groups of ERT alone and ZID (WCK 5107) alone in 52 healthy adult male and female subjects aged 18 to 45 years old (both inclusive). Seven treatment cohorts will be evaluated in this study. WCK 6777 will be evaluated in three cohorts - Cohorts 1, 4 and 7- of 8 subjects each (6 study drug combinations and 2 placebos); ERT will be evaluated alone in two cohorts - Cohorts 2 and 5- of 8 subject each (6 ERT and 2 placebos); and ZID will be evaluated in two cohorts, Cohorts 3 and 6, of 6 subjects each (all ZID). The study will be placebo-controlled and double-blinded in all cohorts except Cohorts 3 and 6. No placebo subjects are included in standalone ZID cohorts, since adequate safety data for higher doses of ZID alone in comparison with placebo are available from completed Phase 1 studies of WCK 5107 (ZID) alone and the ZID-only arms of WCK 5222 (cefepime + ZID) studies. The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of three dose-escalating regimens of WCK 6777 ( ERT and ZID combination) and two-dose escalating regimens of standalone ERT or ZID following single daily doses for 7 days in healthy adult subjects.

A Phase I, open label study of a single dose of 30 mg/kg of apramycin administered intravenously (IV) over 30 (+/- 5) minutes. Twenty subjects will be enrolled in the study to one of 5 cohorts, T1-T5, each corresponding to a timepoint after initiation of infusion at which a single fiberoptic bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is performed. There will be 4 subjects per cohort. Cohort T5 will be enrolled after plasma and lung apramycin concentrations and preliminary PK data analysis are completed in cohorts T1-T4. Enrollment and dosing will be determined by bronchoscopy schedule. For each cohort, if 2 subjects are scheduled to receive study drug on the same day, the dose will be administered sequentially at least 2 hours apart. The primary objective is to assess plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apramycin and lung penetration of apramycin in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) after single intravenous (IV) apramycin dose of 30 mg/kg in healthy subjects.

This study is a first-in-human, Phase 1, randomized, double- blind, four-part, dose-escalation study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single (Part 1) and repeat (Part 2) escalating intravenous doses of KSP-1007. Repeated escalating doses of KSP-1007 will be co-administered with meropenem (Part 3) and single, ascending doses of KSP-1007 will be administered alone in healthy Japanese subjects (Part 4)
Bacterial Infections
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate if type of nail polish (gel polish or regular polish) has an effect on the number of bacterial colonies on finger nails after surgical scrubbing. Participants: The potential participants are healthcare providers with patient interaction. Exclusion criteria include evidence of active dermatitis or other skin abnormalities, or allergy to chlorhexidine. Intervention: Participants will have gel nail polish applied to one finger of their dominant hand, and regular polish applied to another finger of their dominant hand. Bacterial swabs will be collected from these two fingers, as well as the from the adjacent finger with no nail polish. Specimen collection will occur both before and after scrubbing with surgical soap. Bacterial counts will be compared between the three groups to determine the association between the presence of nail polish and nail polish type on bacterial counts after surgical scrubbing. Specimen collection will not take place during scrubbing for actual patient care.
Bacterial Infections, Surgical Site Infection, Contaminated Medical or Biological Substances
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health emergency estimated to be responsible for 700,000 deaths per year worldwide, and it is well known that previous antibiotic exposure is the single most contributing factor. For example, the use of non-antipseudomonal agents can increase risk for any P. aeruginosa strain; however, the use of an agent with antipseudomonal activity would select for resistance to that particular antimicrobial agent or class. Demonstrated that each additional day of exposure to any antipseudomonal beta-lactam is associated with an increased risk of new resistance development. The study seeks to determine whether the choice of empiric therapy (i.e., the same agent versus a different agent from prior antibiotic exposure) has any effect on the likelihood of in vitro activity against GN pathogens (GNPs) in a subsequent infection.
