7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this observational study is to investigate how bacterial populations from the intestine and mouth of patients change during the hospitalization period and evaluate if some populations of specific bacteria increase or decrease the risk of acquiring an infection or becoming colonized by pathogenic bacteria. Participants will have the following samples collected during enrollment: stool samples (maximum 2x/week), blood draws (1x/week), oral swab (1x/week).
The purpose of this investigation is to study the relationships between antimicrobial stewardship program efforts, antimicrobial drug use, and infection control efforts to the incidence rates of hospital acquired infections with Staphylococcus aureus in a sample of US academic medical center hospitals.
REACT is a phase two, open-label, randomized, controlled trial of microbiota therapy (MT) to reduce colonization with multi-drug resistant organisms (MDRO). REACT is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of MT administered to subjects colonized with a MDRO. The overarching hypothesis is that MT can reduce MDRO colonization with safety that is comparable to observation.
This is a multi-center Phase 2 randomized, open-label study in approximately 180 adult male and female subjects, between the ages of 18 and 55, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. The study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of an antimicrobial investigational product, AZD0914 manufactured by AstraZeneca, administered to adults to treat uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea compared to treatment with ceftriaxone. Subjects will be randomly assigned 70:70:40 to receive a single, oral dose of 2000 mg of AZD0914, 3000 mg of AZD0914, or intramuscular dose of 500 mg of ceftriaxone. The drug name is also known as ETX0914.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ceftaroline is effective and safe in the treatment of Community-Acquired Pneumonia
The purpose of the study is to determine if the antibiotic ceftaroline is safe and effective in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in adults.
Understudied drugs will be administered to children per standard of care as prescribed by their treating caregiver and only biological sample collection during the time of drug administration will be involved. A total of approximately 7000 children aged \<21 years who are receiving these drugs for standard of care will be enrolled and will be followed for up a maximum of 90 days. The goal of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of understudied drugs for which specific dosing recommendations and safety data are lacking. The prescribing of drugs to children will not be part of this protocol. Taking advantage of procedures done as part of routine medical care (i.e. blood draws) this study will serve as a tool to better understand drug exposure in children receiving these drugs per standard of care. The data collected through this initiative will also provide valuable pharmacokinetic and dosing information of drugs in different pediatric age groups as well as special pediatric populations (i.e. obese).
