9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Evaluate the safety, PK and efficacy comparing Pagibaximab Injection to placebo in preventing staphylococcal sepsis in very low birth weight infants. 1550 infants will be enrolled prior to 48 hours of life and will be randomized 1:1 to receive active drug or placebo on study days 0, 1, 2, 9, 16, and 23.
The purpose of this study is to show whether Veronate, a donor-selected staphylococcal human immune globulin intravenous (IGIV), can prevent an infection in the blood caused by staphylococcal bacteria in premature babies weighing between 500 and 1250 grams at birth. Babies are enrolled between Day of Life 3 and 5. Babies are randomized to either Veronate or placebo (50-50 chance of either). Babies can receive up to 4 doses of the study drug on Study Days 1, 3, 8 and 15 and are followed until Study Day 70 or discharge from the hospital.
The purpose of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of BSYX-A110 in a small number of healthy adult volunteers. Following the demonstration of safety in adults, this anti-Staphylococcal monoclonal antibody will then be evaluated in the target population of hospitalized low birth weight neonates.
"Phase I/II, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalating, Safety and Pharmacokinetics Study in Very Low Birth Weight Neonates of Four Doses of BSYX-A110 for the Prevention of S. epidermidis Infection." The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of BSYX-A110 administered on Study Days 0 and 14.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety (including tolerability), pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity of BSYX-A110 administered in a 3-dose regimen on Study Days 0, 7, and 14.
The purpose of this study is to implement strategies for improved efficiency and waste reduction ("Toyota Lean") and positive deviance, a social behavioral change process, utilizing frontline healthcare personnel to reduce infection bloodstream infection and MRSA infection in outpatient dialysis care. In two outpatient dialysis units, dialysis unit healthcare staff will be educated in Toyota lean techniques and conduct periodic "discovery and action" dialogues to identify and implement care process changes to reduce infection. Outcomes to be monitored will include incidence of bloodstream infections and MRSA infections of all types. Data will be assessed at quarterly intervals using interrupted time series analysis.
Multiple center, open-label, PK study
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).
