NCT07371429
The study will be conducted to evaluate how a single oral dose of Gepotidacin is processed in the body over time along with safety monitoring in hospitalized pediatric participants who are receiving a standard of care treatment with antibacterials for a confirmed or suspected infection or for its prevention.
NCT02246270
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are the second most common infection in the body. UTIs account for five percent of all visits to primary care physicians. Many women who have had a UTI will develop recurring urinary tract infections. Recent studies suggest that some women who suffer from recurrent UTIs have urinary tracts that allow bacteria to adhere to it more readily than others. Women who suffered from bladder inflammation and recurrent UTIs were noted to have reduced UTIs and bladder inflammation with heparin bladder instillations. Heparin is a highly-sulfated glycosaminoglycan and stored within the secretory granules of mast cells and released only into the vasculature at sites of tissue injury. It has been proposed that, in addition to anticoagulation, the main purpose of heparin is defense at such sites against invading bacteria and other foreign materials. The central question the research is intended to answer is does Heparin bladder instillations decrease UTI rates in patients.
NCT05488340
This is a Phase 2 superiority study of LBP-EC01, a recombinant bacteriophage cocktail, with an initial open-label 3-arm pharmacokinetic (PK) lead-in portion of 30 patients to evaluate the optimal dosing regimen to be used in the subsequent 288 patient blinded portion of the study which will be randomized 1:1 comparing LBP-EC01 + antibiotic versus placebo + antibiotic in patients with a history of prior urinary tract infection (UTI) cased by E. coli. All patients will be required to have an active acute uncomplicated UTI at baseline.
NCT07438184
This randomized controlled clinical trial evaluates the impact of non-surgical periodontal therapy on systemic inflammatory markers in patients with chronic prostatitis or recurrent urinary tract infections. Emerging evidence suggests a possible association between periodontal inflammation and genitourinary conditions. A total of 60 male participants diagnosed with periodontitis and either chronic prostatitis or recurrent urinary tract infections were randomly assigned to one of three groups: non-surgical periodontal therapy, oral hygiene instruction only, or no periodontal treatment. The primary outcomes were changes in serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and the frequency of positive urine cultures over a 120-day follow-up period. The study aims to investigate whether periodontal treatment may reduce systemic inflammatory burden and improve genitourinary clinical parameters.
NCT07432763
The goal of this clinical study is to learn if Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation works to combat urinary tract infections, recurrenturinary tract infections, or pneumonia and contributes to the tapering or discontinuation of antipsychotics in palliative care patients withadvanced dementia. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation reduce the likelihood of developing a urinary tract infection? * Does Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation prevent UTI reinfection? * Does Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation reduce the likelihood of pneumonia? * Does Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation contribute to the tapering or discontinuation of antipsychotics? Researchers will compare Pomegranate Seed Oil to care-as-usual to see if Pomegranate Seed Oil supplementation can increase quality of care in palliative care patients with advanced dementia.
NCT06710899
A single centre proof of concept study to assess whether Vitamin C improves the efficacy of Methenamine Hippurate (Hiprex®) in the prophylaxis of recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) in women
NCT05573334
Menopausal women have an increased risk of recurrent urinary tract infections. This is likely due in part to hormonal changes occurring during menopause. As estrogen falls, the vaginal microbiome shifts from a healthy one to a less healthy one. Because the vagina is close to the urethra, this vaginal microbiome shift contributes to a loss of protection against urinary tract infections (UTIs). The investigators are asking whether improving the vaginal microbiome using an over-the-counter vaginal hygiene system can reduce frequency of recurrent UTI in menopausal women.
NCT06164600
Prebiotics as bovine colostrum are considered as a valuable supplement in the prevention of upper respiratory tract infections, gastrointestinal tract infections and neonatal sepsis. It contains many bioactive substances, such as immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, lysozyme, lactoperoxidase, and other growth factors.There is a lack of research on the use of prebiotics for prophylaxis against recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) in children.In this era of increasing bacterial resistance to antimicrobial therapy, bovine colostrum can offer an approach for prophylaxis against UTI in these patients.We aim at this trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bovine colostrum as a prebiotic for prophylaxis against recurrent urinary tract infection in children.
NCT07233473
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections. Although they are typically treated effectively with antibiotics, recurrence is a frequent and troublesome issue. This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Multi-Gyn UT Protect gel in preventing the recurrence of UTIs. The trial will involve 50 adult female participants who have experienced a UTI in recent months but do not currently have an active infection. Each participant will apply the gel twice a week for four months. They will be monitored throughout this period to assess whether participants develop the reappearance of UTI symptoms. The primary objective is to determine how many participants do not experience a recurrence of UTI by the end of the four-month treatment period.
NCT06689280
Community-acquired infections such as community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and urinary tract infection (UTI) remain leading causes of hospitalization and death due to infections in older persons in Europe. Hospitalization often results in further disabilities and frailty for older and frail individuals, from which some may never recover. Physical activity is well-established as a cornerstone in the primary prevention and treatment of several noncommunicable diseases. However, there is currently no established rehabilitation model following a pneumonia or other infection, nor is there any evidence to support the impact of rehabilitation on the mental and physical health of older and frail individuals following a pneumonia hospitalization or other infection. The aim of the feasibility study is to evaluate a patient-centered and individualized exercise intervention that is kick-started during hospitalization and continued for 3 months after discharge with video-supervised home-based exercise training to patients hospitalized with CAP or UTI compared to standard care with regard to safety, clinical outcomes, patients' perception, functional ability, organizational aspects, and economic aspects.
NCT03543436
TEMO-CARB is a phase 3, randomized, controlled, multicentre, open-label pragmatic clinical trial to test the non-inferiority of temocillin versus carbapenem as initial intravenous treatment of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) due to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing enterobacteriaceae.
NCT07186465
This open-label, parallel-group randomized controlled trial compares two prophylaxis strategies for recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI) in postmenopausal women: (1) nightly oral nitrofurantoin 100 mg for 6 months versus (2) a vaginal tablet containing Lactobacillus with ultra-low-dose estriol (Gynoflor: nightly for 14 days, then twice weekly to month 6). Participants (≥40 years) are randomized 1:1 in computer-generated blocks and followed for 6 months. The primary endpoint is the proportion with rUTI recurrence within 6 months. Secondary endpoints include time to first recurrence, antibiotic resistance in breakthrough infections, change in lower urinary tract symptoms (Thai RUTISS), and urinary microbiome measures (Lactobacillus dominance and community diversity by qPCR and 16S rRNA). Key assessments occur at baseline and month 6 (urinalysis, culture, urinary microbiome sampling, and kidney function). Adherence and adverse events are captured via twice-weekly phone/Line contacts. Approximately 100 participants (50 per arm) will be enrolled as a feasibility-sized pilot.
NCT07184827
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug U101 works to prevent recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI) in women (≥ 20 and \< 76 years old) with a medical history. It will also investigate the safety and the impact on the Quality of Life improvement of drug U101. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the drug prevent or decrease the recurrence of urinary tract infection (UTI) during the 24-week treatment? * Will the Quality of Life be improved during the 24-week treatment? * What medical problems do participants have when taking drug U101? Researchers will compare drug U101 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if drug U101 works to prevent rUTI. Participants will: * Orally take drug U101 or placebo every day for 24 weeks in the main study, three times per day (TID) for 8 weeks and twice per day (BID) for 16 weeks. * Visit the site once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests during the main study. * be asked to enroll in extensional study (the open-label extension (OLE) with drug U101 treatment or the Safety Follow-Up Visits with no investigational product treatment) for 24 weeks after they complete the 24-week main study. * Visit the site when the suspected UTI occurred during the main study or the extension study.
NCT04846803
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections worldwide. It affects 150 million people annually. Treatment of patients with UTI entails a high consumption of antibiotics and large social and health costs. With this protocol, we want to elucidate alternative treatment methods for especially recurrent urinary tract infection. Bacteria have internal competitiveness (bacterial interference) and it is known that the non-pathogenic E.coli can outcompete the pathogenic E.coli in laboratory studies. We intend to strengthen the clinical evidence that it can be used as patient treatment through a clinical, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial at Odense University Hospital.
NCT03825874
The emergence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (E-ESBL) is a major public health problem. It leads more frequent prescription of penems with the risk of emergence and spread of strains producing carbapenemases, which may be resistant to all known antibiotics. A policy of savings of penems is desirable. Among the alternatives to penems, amikacin is in the foreground. It remains active on the majority of E-ESBL strains. Some risk factors for E-ESBL emergence are known: recent antibiotic therapy (particularly quinolones and cephalosporins third generation), previous hospitalization or residence in a high endemic country. In pediatrics, E-ESBLs are primarily responsible for urinary tract infection. In France, E-ESBLs represent about 10% of the strains responsible for urinary tract infections. The Pathology Group Pediatric Infectious (GPIP) of the French Society of Pediatrics (SFP) and the Society of Infectious Pathology French Language (SPILF) have proposed different therapeutic options to treat febrile UTIs in children: amikacin intravenous; intravenous (IV) ceftriaxone or intramuscular (IM); or cefixime per-os (PO). The objective of this study is to compare the emergence of E-ESBLs in stools of children after febrile UTIs treatment with amikacin IV versus ceftriaxone or cefixime.

A Phase 2, Multi-Center, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Finding Study Evaluating Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Different Doses and Regimens of Allocetra-OTS for the Treatment of Organ Failure in Adult Sepsis Patients
NCT06503588
The Committee of Infectiology of the French Association of Urology (CIAFU) provided, for the first time in 2020, comprehensive guidelines for ureteral stent-associated urinary tract infections (USAUTI) prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Since evidence lacked in terms of appropriate treatment, guidelines could not support systematic change of US in case of USAUTI. This study aims to evaluate whether "after guidelines group" patients treated for USAUTI had different occurrence of at least one relapse or recurrence than "before guidelines group".
NCT05796921
The aim of the present randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a probiotic formulation, containing the probiotic strain Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CA15 (DSM 33960), in the treatment of vaginal dysbiosis in terms of: (i) modulation of the microbiota (increase of lactobacilli and decrease of pathogens), (ii) reduction of clinical signs of inflammation, (iii) improvement of quality of life.
NCT06472765
The central premise of this study is that the intricate balance and diversity of the vaginal microbiome plays a pivotal role in the onset, progression, and severity of various gynecological conditions. Specifically, the research aims to investigate how imbalances in microbial communities, such as the overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria or the depletion of beneficial ones, are linked to conditions like Bacterial Vaginosis, Candidiasis, Urinary Tract Infections, Vaginal Atrophy, and others. By employing PCR testing and the outcomes of next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the microbiome, the study seeks to identify distinct microbial profiles and patterns that are characteristic of each condition. This nuanced understanding is expected to lead to more accurate and early diagnosis, facilitating personalized and effective treatment strategies that go beyond the conventional, often indiscriminate use of antibiotics.
NCT05711446
Urinary tract infections (UTI) are common in kidney transplant recipients and are an important cause of illness and hospital admissions. Past studies have shown that about 1 out of 5 of newly transplanted patients develop UTI within their first 3 months of transplantation. Such UTIs increase the risk for blood stream infection and acute rejection of the kidney, Improvements in urinary voiding techniques may reduce the frequency of UTI. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits of "double voiding" in kidney transplant recipients.
