Candidiasis

This Phase 3 trial tests a new drug called fosmanogepix against standard treatments for life-threatening Candida bloodstream or organ infections. About 450 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either fosmanogepix (first by IV, then as a pill) or the usual IV caspofungin fo…

This study tests a new gel called OCF001 for treating acute yeast infections in women. About 36 women with a confirmed yeast infection will use the gel or a placebo for 7 days. Researchers will check if the infection clears up and if the gel is safe and well-tolerated.

This study tests whether lactoferrin, a natural prebiotic from cow's milk, can be a good alternative to antibiotic tablets for women with bacterial vaginosis (BV) or thrush. Researchers will recruit 114 women and give half lactoferrin vaginal pessaries for 3 weeks, while the othe…

This study compares a 7-day course of antifungal therapy to the standard 14-day course for children with uncomplicated candidemia (a blood infection caused by Candida fungus). About 420 children who have already received 7 days of treatment will be randomly assigned to stop or co…

This early study tests whether a lactic acid gel (Phexxi) used twice weekly can change the vaginal microbiome to help prevent recurrent bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections. 22 premenopausal women with a history of these infections will use the gel for 4 weeks. Researchers wi…

This study is testing a new cooling device placed in the vagina to treat yeast infections. Researchers want to see if it can relieve symptoms and clear the infection within 7 days. The study involves 55 women aged 22-49 with uncomplicated yeast infections. It is an early-stage tr…

This study looks at whether a single surgery to replace an infected hip or knee joint can work as well as the usual two-step process for Candida infections. Researchers will review records of 16 patients treated between 2013 and 2021. The goal is to see if the infection clears up…

This study tests whether a genetic test can help decide which leukemia patients need a strong antifungal drug (posaconazole) to prevent serious mold infections during chemotherapy. About 410 adults with acute myeloid leukemia will be randomly assigned to receive the drug or a pla…

This study tests a gel device called Multi-Gyn FemiTotal in 80 women with bacterial vaginosis or vaginal yeast infections. Participants use the gel for 7 days, and if symptoms clear, they are followed for 4 months to see if the infection returns. The goal is to see if the gel can…

This study tests whether a 5-day course of a nasal antiseptic (povidone iodine) can reduce or eliminate Candida auris, a drug-resistant fungus, from the nose of colonized patients. Researchers will enroll 120 adults with a history of C. auris colonization or infection. The goal i…

This study will test a new diagnostic device called the Nanopath assay, which aims to quickly detect bacteria or yeast causing vaginitis. Up to 1000 women with symptoms like itching or discharge will provide vaginal swab samples, either collected by a clinician or themselves. The…

This study evaluates a rapid diagnostic test that can detect Candida auris, a drug-resistant fungus, in about 15 minutes. Researchers will compare the test's accuracy against standard lab methods using samples from 554 patients. The goal is to help hospitals quickly identify and …

This study tests whether adding a probiotic supplement (Bioithas WOMAN®) to standard antifungal medicine helps relieve symptoms of vaginal yeast infections faster. About 60 women with suspected yeast infections will take either antifungal treatment alone or with the probiotic for…

This study looks at whether a common yeast infection in babies' mouths, called oral thrush, is linked to severe cavities in early childhood. Researchers will follow 70 children, half with a history of thrush and half without, for two years. They will regularly check teeth and tak…

This study is testing a new rapid diagnostic device called In-Dx to quickly identify infections and antibiotic resistance in emergency patients with suspected sepsis. Researchers will compare the device's results to standard lab cultures using stored samples from 2,500 patients. …

This study looks at how the antifungal drug rezafungin moves into the abdominal fluid of critically ill patients with a serious fungal infection after abdominal surgery. Researchers will measure drug levels in the blood and belly fluid of 20 patients. The goal is to see if enough…

This study looks at how the immune system responds in critically ill patients with severe abdominal infections. Researchers want to understand why some patients develop a serious fungal infection while others do not. They will measure a specific immune marker (HLA-DR) in 100 adul…

This study is creating a data bank to better understand vaginal conditions like vulvodynia, yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, and preterm labor. Researchers will look at proteins, immune markers, and vaginal bacteria in 550 women, including healthy volunteers and those with …
