Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis and Ambisome Aerosol With Itraconazole
This study compares the therapeutic (clinical and radiological) efficacy of a six-month treatment by itraconazole and nebulised Ambisome® (liposomal amphotericin B = LAmB) versus treatment by itraconazole alone, in non - or mildly - immunocompromised patients affected by Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis (single aspergilloma excluded). • Control arm: Itraconazole 200 mg …
Rezafungin for Treatment of Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis (CPA) in Adults With Limited Treatment Options
The goal of this clinical trial is to to evaluate the drug rezafungin in the treatment of Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis (CPA) in male and female patients aged 18 years and over with limited treatment options. The study aims to answer whether 6 months of rezafungin treatment is effective and safe …
A Trial to Compare Nebulized Amphotericin B and Nebulized Normal Saline as Maintenance in Patients With Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis
The treatment of CPA is with oral itraconazole for 6-12 months. Oral itraconazole results in better clinical outcomes in CPA compared to supportive care. A recent study comparing 6 months with 12 months of oral itraconazole for longer duration treatment found longer duration reduced CPA relapse and improved clinical outcomes. …
PCR for Aspergillus Fumigatus in Blood and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid for Monitoring Cases of Invasive Aspergillosis: What is Its Prognostic Value
Aspergillus fumigatus PCR is currently used in conjunction with serum galactomannan to support the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis or for monitoring at-risk patients not receiving antifungal prophylaxis. A positive result and a high titer are thought to be associated with the advanced stage of the disease and the fungal load. …
iMagIng pulmonaRy Aspergillosis Using Gallium-68-dEferoxamine
This is a single center open-label feasibility trial involving a single study visit for participants. The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the feasibility of [68Ga]Ga-DFO-B PET/CT (gallium-68-deferoxamine) for the visualization of pulmonary Aspergillus infection. The incidence of fungal infections is on the rise and are associated with significant …
Compare Oral Itraconazole and Standard Care Versus Standard Care Alone in Patients With Non-cystic Fibrosis Related Bronchiectasis With Chronic Aspergillus Infection in Reducing Bronchiectasis Exacerbations
There is an intricate link between bronchiectasis and fungi. Patients with cystic fibrosis frequently manifest fungal sensitization and fungal colonization with Aspergillus fumigatus.6 Aspergillus species also has a cause-and-effect relationship with non-CF (cystic fibrosis) bronchiectasis.7, 8 In allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), Aspergillus is the cause of bronchiectasis. In contrast, in …
A Randomized Trial of Prednisolone, Itraconazole, or Their Combination in Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis
The investigators hypothesize that a combination of prednisolone and itraconazole would significantly reduce the exacerbation rate at one-year of patients with acute allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) compared to itraconazole or prednisolone monotherapy. In this study, 300 subjects aged ≥18 years with acute ABPA will be randomized to treatment with either …
Interferon-gamma as Adjunctive Therapy in Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis: a Randomised Feasibility Study
This study explores the role of treatment with interferon-gamma to improve outcomes in chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA). CPA is a progressive infection caused by the fungus Aspergillus affecting patients with chronic lung disease like Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD) or previously treated tuberculosis (TB). It causes gradual destruction of lung …
Oral Itraconazole Versus Combination of Systemic Glucorticoids and Oral Itraconazole in CPA-ABPA Overlap Syndrome
While ABPA and CPA represent two distinct manifestations of Aspergillus-related lung disease, there is an overlap of investigations that are currently used for the diagnosis of these entities. In a previous study, the authors have demonstrated that 22% of subjects with CPA fulfilled the obligatory criteria for ABPA. While the …
Study on Theraputic Drug Monitoring and Phamacokinetics of Isavuconazole in Children
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the plasma concentration of isavuconazole in pediatric patients. It will also learn about the relationship of isavuconazole plasma concentrations to efficacy and safety in pediatric patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the plasma concentration after using …
