352 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Fosmanogepix) for the potential treatment of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis, a life-threatening fungal infection caused by several species of yeast called Candida. The study is seeking patients who have a diagnosis of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis. Two-thirds of all patients will receive the study medication fosmanogepix Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fosmanogepix tablets. One-third of all patients will receive a standard of care regimen of caspofungin Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fluconazole capsules. Fosmanogepix or caspofungin will first be given as an Intravenous (IV) infusion directly into a vein in the arm each day at the study clinic. Fosmanogepix tablets or fluconazole capsules will be taken orally by mouth daily either at the study clinic, or at home if patients are well enough to be discharged from the hospital. The treatment effect in patients receiving fosmanogepix to those receiving caspofungin/ fluconazole will be compared. The primary aim is to show that fosmanogepix is not inferior (not worse) to caspofungin/ fluconazole with a noninferiority margin of 15%. The duration of study treatment and number of study visits will vary depending on how long the patient will be treated for the infection. Treatment will continue for a maximum of 6 weeks depending on when the infection is cleared and whether other symptoms related to the infection have improved. There will also be a follow-up visit 6 weeks after the study treatment was stopped.
The purpose of the study is to 1) define the operating characteristics of fungal biomarker assays in pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis, 2) determine the change in fungal biomarker assay results in children who develop invasive candidiasis, and 3) create a biobank of blood samples from pediatric patients at high-risk for invasive candidiasis and those with invasive candidiasis for future testing of fungal biomarker assays and development of new fungal biomarker assays. The study will assemble a prospective cohort of pediatric patients at high-risk for developing invasive candidiasis. Blood samples for biomarker testing will be obtained at the time a patient has a clinical indication for blood culture attainment. Additional blood sampling will be performed on the sub-set of patients that are found to have invasive candidiasis. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of biomarker assays will be determined for each biomarker assay. No PHI will be stored in the database and limits on blood draws (3 ml/kg in an 8 week period) will be adhered to.
The purpose of this study is to validate clinical performance (i.e. estimated sensitivity and specificity) of the T2 Candida test on the T2 DX Instrument compared to blood culture results and/or known Candida positive status of prospectively collected and contrived (i.e. Candida-spiked) clinical specimens.
The purpose of this study is to assure the uniform collection, handling, storage and transport of patient whole blood specimens and associated information to support validation of the T2 Candida Assay.

The purpose of this study is to look at how people respond to the treatment of warts through use of the Candida antigen to get an immune response to rid the body of human papillomavirus (HPV). The immune system is the part of the body that fights infections like HPV which causes warts. This research study will examine the response of your wart when injected with a portion of a common yeast (candida) which is the study drug. Your immune system response will also be looked at by doing a test called an ELISPOT assay. This test is done on blood samples. The results of this test may help us to determine how the Candida antigen affects your wart.
The purpose of this study is to determine the changing patterns of infection caused by Candida species in urban medical centers and its influence on patient outcomes. A retrospective cohort study design will be employed with the main outcome measure being hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes including microbiologic clearance of the infection, duration of hospitalization, and the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay will also be assessed.
Fluconazole is an FDA-approved drug that is widely used to treat fungal infections due to candida. The experimental drug anidulafungin has been found to be active in treating life-threatening fungal infections. The purpose of this study is to determine whether anidulafungin is as effective as fluconazole in treating candidemia, an invasive form of candidiasis. Three hundred patients 16 years of age or older will participate in this study. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one-half will receive anidulafungin; the other half will receive fluconazole. They will receive the drug for as few as 10 days or for up to 42 days, depending on the seriousness of the infection. The drug will be given over a four-hour period on the first day, and over two hours on the remaining days. While taking the study medication, participants will be required to give blood samples every week until the end of treatment. At two weeks and six weeks following the end of therapy, participants will return for evaluation. Prior to their participation in this study, patients will undergo the following evaluations: a physical exam, an eye exam, an electrocardiogram, and possibly blood work.
In the clinical performance part of this study, prospectively acquired clinician-collected and clinician-instructed, self-collected vaginal swab specimens collected in cobas® PCR Media will be taken from a minimum of 500 symptomatic individuals with a clinical presentation consistent with vaginitis, vaginosis, or both. Additionally, a minimum of 100 asymptomatic individuals will also be enrolled in the study. The cobas® BV/CV assay amplifies and detects the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of pathogens associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV) and candida vaginitis (CV). The BV results will be compared with the patient infection status (PIS) established by using 3 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared commercial assays, and the CV results will be compared with the PIS established with the use of culture plus MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight). The primary objective of the clinical performance study is to evaluate the performance (sensitivity and specificity) of cobas® BV/CV to determine the presence of BV and/or CV in the intended use patient population when being tested on cobas® 6800/8800 systems. The secondary objective is to evaluate the equivalency of cobas® BV/CV between the cobas® 5800 system and cobas® 6800/8800 systems.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether a seven-day course of standard of care (echinocandin) antifungal therapy is non-inferior to a 14-day course of echinocandin antifungal therapy in patients with uncomplicated candidemia in terms of clinical, mycologic, adverse events and all cause mortality.
