Endophthalmitis

This study compares two common antibiotic combinations—vancomycin with piperacillin/tazobactam versus vancomycin with meropenem—to see which is less harmful to the kidneys. About 852 hospitalized adults with serious infections will be randomly assigned to one of the two combos. T…

This study tests whether oral valganciclovir or ganciclovir eye drops can reduce the virus causing eye inflammation and prevent flare-ups. About 117 adults with CMV anterior uveitis will receive either antiviral treatment or placebo for 7 days, then some continue for 12 months. T…

This study will test whether adding a salt water (sodium chloride 5%) eye drop to standard antibiotic treatment helps heal bacterial eye infections faster. About 40 adults with bacterial keratitis will receive either antibiotics plus the salt drop or antibiotics alone. The goal i…

This study tests a new gel called IVIEW-1201 for treating fungal keratitis, a serious eye infection. About 60 people will receive either the gel or a control treatment. The goal is to see if the gel can clear the infection and heal the eye. While it aims to cure the infection, on…

This study tests whether a short course of the steroid prednisolone can prevent paradoxical immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) in people with AIDS who have low CD4 counts and are starting HIV treatment. About 131 participants will receive either prednisolone or no…

This study will test whether a single antibiotic injection given during cataract surgery can prevent endophthalmitis, a rare but severe eye infection. About 60,000 people with cataracts will receive either the antibiotic or a placebo. The goal is to see if the antibiotic reduces …

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding a steroid eye drop (fluorometholone) to standard antibiotic treatment improves vision at 3 months in people with bacterial corneal ulcers. About 174 adults with mild to severe ulcers will be randomly assigned to get either the steroid plus …

This observational study will look at 10,000 adults in intensive care units (ICUs) around the world during a single 24-hour period. Researchers want to find out how common infections and antibiotic-resistant bacteria are, how they are treated, and how patients recover. No new tre…

This research project aims to understand why older adults get more infections and why those infections can be more serious. By following 23,000 people aged 60 and older, scientists will collect health data and samples like blood and stool to study how the immune system changes wi…

This study will collect blood samples from 30,000 adults in the UK with various health conditions, including blood clots, infections, heart disease, diabetes, and more. The samples will be used to develop and fine-tune new diagnostic tests for the cobas® lumira device, which allo…

This study will follow 300 adults with severe infections in the ICU to see how levels of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs)—natural molecules that help stop inflammation—change over time. Researchers will use blood samples already collected during routine care, so no extr…

This study aims to learn more about microbial keratitis, a serious eye infection, by examining 100 patients at Assiut University Hospital. Researchers will identify the germs causing the infection, look for risk factors, and track complications and outcomes. The goal is to improv…
