This trial tests whether taking preventive antibiotics can help people with certain liver conditions avoid infections after an endoscopy-related procedure. It may reduce infection risk, but it also requires that you have no signs of infection and haven’t recently taken antibiotics.
TaipeiAges 20–85 - NCT04020536Recruiting
Real-world study for several infectious diseases
This study follows people with confirmed brucellosis, epidemic hemorrhagic fever, or kala-azar (visceral leishmaniasis) to understand how these infections behave in real life. It may help improve care by collecting evidence on diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT03613545RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Fecal transplant to treat irritable bowel syndrome
This study tests whether transferring stool bacteria from a healthy donor (fecal microbiota transplantation) can improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It may help by changing the gut bacteria that can influence digestion and gut discomfort.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT02652169Recruiting
Antibiotic or antiseptic treatment for chronic leg ulcers
This study tests a wound treatment using topical antibiotics or antiseptics to help chronic (long-lasting) leg ulcers heal and control local infection. It may help people whose ulcers are not responding well to standard care.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05224401RecruitingPhase 3
Oral antibiotic step-down for ESBL bladder infections
This Phase 3 trial tests whether switching from short-term IV antibiotics to an oral antibiotic combo is safe and effective for ESBL urine infections. It may help you avoid staying on IV antibiotics as long, if your bacteria are the right match.
HelsingborgAges 18–130 - NCT05502913RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant plus cancer immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial studies whether giving a fecal microbiota transplant (a stool-based sample from a carefully screened donor) alongside immune checkpoint inhibitors can improve outcomes in people with lung cancer. It aims to change the gut bacteria to help the immune system work better against the cancer.
BeershebaAges 18 years+ - NCT05024188Recruiting
Gut bacteria and exercise performance study
This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut might affect your physical fitness and exercise ability. You would need to be a regular exerciser and take some antibiotics as part of the study.
RehovotAges 20–55 - NCT04723940Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Oral vs intravenous antibiotics for joint infection
This trial compares taking antibiotics by mouth versus through an IV line for people who have an infection in their hip or knee replacement. The goal is to see if oral antibiotics work just as well as IV antibiotics after surgery to clean the infection.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03895593Recruiting
Fecal transplant for stubborn intestinal infections
This study looks at “rescue” fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), which replaces gut microbes using stool from a screened donor, for intestinal infections that have not improved with standard care. It may help patients whose infection keeps coming back or doesn’t respond to treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT06018792Recruiting
New blood test for faster sepsis diagnosis in children
This trial tests a new, faster way to find bacteria in the blood of children with suspected sepsis. It uses a molecular test that may give results sooner than standard cultures, helping doctors treat infections more quickly.
AmsterdamAges birth–18 years - NCT05678621RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing stopping or extending immune treatment to prevent infections
This trial studies whether people with certain blood cancers can safely stop their immune support medicine (immunoglobulin, also called Ig) or whether they should continue. It also tests antibiotic prevention strategies to reduce the risk of serious infections.
Garran, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT07851857RecruitingPhase 3
Short course of antibiotics after head and neck cancer surgery
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics for one day after head and neck surgery works just as well as giving them for longer to prevent infections. It might help you have a smoother recovery with fewer side effects from antibiotics.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07822243Recruiting
Antibiotic penetration in critically ill children
This study looks at why some antibiotics given through a vein may reach infections differently in very sick children. It aims to make sure medicines are given in the best way to help children in the intensive care unit recover.
GhentAges 1 month–15 years - NCT07777783Recruiting
Non-surgical treatment for breast abscess
This study tests whether draining a breast abscess with a needle and using antibiotics can treat it without surgery. It may be a gentler option for women with this condition.
SohagAges 18 years+ - NCT05420935Recruiting
Study of antibodies after operating-room allergic reactions
This study looks at different kinds of allergy-related antibodies in people who had an allergic reaction during surgery. The goal is to better understand what immune signals are involved so future allergy prevention and care can improve.
Paris, ParisAges 18–70 - NCT07717372Recruiting
CRP test for adults with respiratory infection in primary care
This trial tests whether a simple finger-prick test (C-reactive protein or CRP) can help doctors decide whether antibiotics are needed for adults with a cold or other respiratory infection. If you are an adult with recent symptoms and have not taken antibiotics yet, you may be able to join.
JakartaAges 18 years+ - NCT05784311RecruitingPhase 4
Longer vs shorter antibiotic prevention after pancreatoduodenectomy
