This study tests a new vaccine called Candi5V in 251 women who get frequent yeast infections (at least 3 per year). The vaccine is designed to train the body's immune system to fight Candida fungus. Researchers will check if it's safe and if it reduces future infections.

This study tests whether boric acid vaginal inserts (600 mg) taken for 7 or 14 days can safely and effectively treat yeast infections. About 400 women aged 12 and older with active symptoms will participate. The goal is to see if all signs and symptoms disappear without needing m…

This study tests whether adding neuro-athletic training—exercises that challenge the nervous system with extra sensory input—to regular taekwondo practice can improve balance, agility, and jumping ability while reducing injury risk. Researchers will compare two groups of 13 athle…

This study tests a mixture of viruses called phages, which naturally kill bacteria, for treating skin infections that don't respond to antibiotics. Researchers will enroll 150 adults with infected wounds and compare the phage treatment to a placebo or standard care. The goal is t…

This study tests a new home-use LED light device to treat nail fungus (onychomycosis). Researchers want to find the best light dose and how often to use it. Fifty adults with nail fungus will use the device at home and be monitored for improvement.

This study aims to find out if 5 days of antibiotics works as well as 10 days for children hospitalized with pneumonia, skin infections, or urinary tract infections. About 1,200 children will be randomly assigned to either a 5-day or 10-day course, with some receiving a placebo a…

This study tests a topical solution called Trichostatin A for mild-to-severe toenail fungus (onychomycosis). About 50 adults with a confirmed fungal infection will apply the drug daily for 4 weeks. Researchers will check safety and whether the fungus clears up using lab tests.

This study looks at whether taking beta-alanine, a common supplement, can help wrestlers perform better and feel less muscle fatigue during two days of simulated matches. Sixteen healthy wrestlers aged 12 to 25 will take the supplement and then do wrestling drills to measure thei…

This study tests a product called pHyph for treating thrush (a vaginal yeast infection) in adult women. The goal is to see if pHyph reduces symptoms like itching, burning, and irritation. 48 women will either use pHyph daily for 6 days or receive no treatment, and researchers wil…

This study aims to understand why some women get recurrent vaginal yeast infections (vulvovaginal candidiasis) and others don't. Researchers will compare the vaginal microbiome, immune markers, and metabolic profiles of women with and without the infection. By identifying key dif…

This study looks at 120 Canadian women to understand why some get repeated yeast infections while others don't. Researchers will compare the vaginal yeast and bacteria of women with their first infection, those with recurrent infections, and those with yeast but no symptoms. Part…

This study looks at how well a single dose of ivermectin works in children under 5 with scabies. Researchers want to make sure the dose is safe and effective for this age group. About 120 children in Laos will take part, and the study will measure drug levels in the blood.

This trial compares a new ivermectin powder mixed with infant formula to the standard tablet in 52 healthy adults. The goal is to see if the new formulation is absorbed similarly, tastes better, and causes no new side effects. Results will guide future use in children with scabie…

This study tests a 'discharge stewardship bundle' to help doctors prescribe the right antibiotics for the right duration when children leave the hospital. Over 1,100 children with pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections will be followed. Doctors receive feedback r…

This study checks if drinking caffeine changes blood pressure or heart rate in people taking the antifungal medication terbinafine for nail fungus. Researchers will monitor 52 adults before and after they start the drug. The goal is to understand possible side effects, not to tes…

This study follows 2,500 people who visit freshwater beaches in Ontario, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia to see if contact with water containing blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) leads to stomach bugs, respiratory issues, or skin/eye infections. Researchers will also track illness in pe…
