Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04140578RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic prevention for certain liver disease patients
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 - NCT04168866Recruiting
Appendicitis abscess treatment: drain surgery or antibiotics
This study compares two ways to treat appendicitis that has formed an abscess or firm inflammatory mass (phlegmon) on a CT scan. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for people with complicated appendicitis.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04270786Recruiting
De-escalating antibiotics early for neutropenic fever
This study looks at whether doctors can safely use fewer/less intense antibiotics after fever improves in adults with low white blood cell counts after a stem cell transplant. It may help reduce unnecessary antibiotic exposure while still treating serious infections.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT04335383Recruiting
Study blood antibodies for a Pseudomonas-targeting treatment
This study looks at people’s blood to see if they already have antibodies that recognize Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a type of bacteria. If you qualify for the prospective part, they may collect blood samples at Grenoble University Hospital and use your results to support future treatment testing.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT04436991Recruiting
Testing antibiotic doses in older adults in the emergency room
This study looks at how best to dose certain antibiotics in people age 75 and older who are admitted to a geriatric (older-adult) hospital unit. It aims to measure antibiotic levels in the body to see whether dosing can be improved for older patients.
GhentAges 75 years+ - NCT04664556Recruiting
Study of severe pneumococcal infections in children
This study tracks cases of invasive pneumococcal disease (a serious infection) in children and newborns. It may help clinicians better understand how these infections happen and guide future prevention and treatment.
CréteilAges 1 day–18 years - NCT04664569Recruiting
Study of treatments for bacterial meningitis in children
This study enrolls children and newborns with suspected or confirmed bacterial meningitis. The goal is to understand and improve care for serious infections that affect the lining around the brain.
CréteilAges 1 day–18 years - NCT04722978RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo plus moxifloxacin for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding moxifloxacin (an antibiotic) to standard chemotherapy helps people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer live longer or respond better. You may qualify if your cancer has the right lab markers and you haven’t had treatment for metastatic disease yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT04759001RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fecal treatment to clear gut bacteria resistant to antibiotics
This study tests a stool-based treatment (fecal microbiota treatment) to help remove “carbapenem-resistant” bacteria living in the gut. If you carry these bacteria without being sick, the goal is to reduce or stop that colonization.
RomeAges 18–90 - NCT04791579RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing UTIs after Botox for neurogenic bladder
This study tests whether taking an antibiotic (ciprofloxacin) around the time of bladder Botox can prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in people whose bladder problems are caused by nerve conditions. It may help lower the chance of infection after treatment.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–100 - NCT04898452Recruiting
At-home IV antibiotics for certain serious infections
This study tests giving selected IV antibiotics at home instead of staying in the hospital for certain serious infections. It may help people who are medically stable, able to manage an IV pump, and have a safe home setup.
KristiansundAges 18 years+ - NCT04961580Recruiting
Study of ceftazidime dosing in sick children
This trial measures how ceftazidime (an antibiotic) moves through the body and how it works in children with severe infections in the pediatric intensive care unit. It may help doctors choose safer, more effective dosing for kids.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 3 months–18 years - NCT04970446RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fecal transplant to restore gut microbes in Crohn’s
