Overview

The objective of this registry is to broaden the knowledge on epidemiology, diagnostic procedures and clinical course of emerging invasive fungal infections.

Description

The specific objectives are:

  1. To determine the fungal species causing invasive fungal infection in different parts of the world.
  2. To determine the clinical pattern of disease and document procedures performed for confirmation of the diagnosis.
  3. To describe the therapeutic regimens used and their efficacy.
  4. To share clinical isolates among the contributors of Fungiscope.
  5. To develop molecular biology tools for identification of strains in histopathologically proven invasive fungal infection.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Cultural, histopathological, antigen or DNA evidence of invasive fungal infection

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Infection due to Candida spp., Cryptococcus neoformans, Pneumocystis jiroveci
  • Endemic fungal infection such as coccidioidomycosis or histoplasmosis
  • Colonisation or other non-invasive infection

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
