Pathogenesis and Genetics of Disseminated or Refractory Coccidioidomycosis
Background Coccidioidomycosis is caused by a fungus that grows in the southwest United States and parts of Mexico and South America. This disease is caused by breathing dust containing the fungus. It can lead to serious lung and breathing problems. Rarely, the fungus can infect other body parts. This is …
Immune Regulation in Chronic Aspergillus Infection After COVID-19 Infection
This study aims to collect clinical cases and follow-up data from patients with chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, post-COVID-19 aspergillosis, and post-COVID-19 patients without aspergillosis. Using in vitro assays, we will measure the phagocytic function of neutrophils when stimulated by fungal hyphae, their ability to produce neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), the expression …
Pharmacokinetics of Voriconazole in Adult ECMO Patients
Given the high burden of fungal co-infection in patients admitted to ICU and improved outcomes with prompt anti-fungal treatment, it is of vital importance that the doses of anti-fungal are optimum to improve the dismal outcome of influenza/Covid-19 Associated Pulmonary Aspergillosis. Due to the reported difficulties in dosing appropriately in …
Influenza Associated Aspergillosis In-depth Investigation
This trial is aimed to study the immunological and pathological characteristics of influenza versus non-influenza severe community-acquired pneumonia patients in ICU.
Prospective Observational Trial of IAPA
A prospective multi-center observational study to assess the incidence of influenza-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (IAPA) in ICU patients and to identify host- and pathogen related risk factors for IAPA in EORTC negative ICU patients with severe influenza.
VOC in Breath Samples for the Diagnosis of IPA
The diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) bears grave implications for the prognosis and treatment plan of the immunosuppressed patient. Thus far, such diagnosis in the immunosuppressed patient, such as patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), relied heavily on chest computed tomography (CT) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), an invasive approach …
Non-invasive Tools to Diagnose Invasive Aspergillosis Infections in ICU Patients With COVID-19 and Other Conditions.
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) are difficult to diagnose in the ICU population, as the patients often do not present the conventional risks factors of immunocompromised patients (EORTC/MSG criteria). In the ICU population, patients often present other risk factors, such as cirrhosis, COPD, influenza and currently SARS-Cov2. The clinicians are thus currently …
Early Diagnosis of Invasive Lung Aspergillosis
The last decade has seen a significant increase in secondary Aspergillus infections, not only due to primary hypersensitivity, and immunodeficiency based on oncological diseases and their therapy, but mainly due to a rise in severe respiratory infections (H1N1, COVID-19, bacterial infections). This is most evident in critically ill patients whose …
Safety of Pregnant Subjects Exposed to Ibrexafungerp Including Infant Outcomes
This is an ongoing evaluation of subjects exposed to ibrexafungerp while pregnant. The study population will include pregnant women of any age.
Mucorales PCR Screening in At-risk Hematology Patients
Patients with leukemia are treated with intensive chemotherapy and often have to undergo a stem cell transplantation which makes their immune system extremely vulnerable. This puts them at risk for invasive fungal infections, of which invasive mucormycosis (IM) is one of the most dangerous ones. Treatment of IM is complex …
