This study looks at two ways to manage recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women. One group takes a daily antibiotic called nitrofurantoin. The other group has a minor procedure to burn away tiny spots in the bladder (electrofulguration) and also takes the daily antibiot…

This study compares two ways to prevent repeat urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women after menopause. One group takes a nightly antibiotic pill for 6 months, while the other uses a vaginal tablet containing a probiotic (Lactobacillus) and a tiny amount of estrogen. The goal is…

This pilot study tests whether applying a steroid cream to the foreskin for four weeks can prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in uncircumcised male infants under 6 months who have had their first fever-related UTI. Forty infants will receive either the steroid crea…

This study tests a vaginal gel called Multi-Gyn UT Protect to see if it can prevent repeated urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women. Fifty adult women who have had multiple UTIs in the past year but no current infection will apply the gel twice a week for four months. Researche…

This study tests whether a vaginal testosterone cream can prevent repeat urinary tract infections (UTIs) in postmenopausal women aged 60-90 who have had at least three UTIs. Participants will apply the cream or a placebo for 9 months and be monitored for infections. The goal is t…

This phase 3 trial tests whether the drug U101 (pentosan polysulfate sodium) can prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women aged 20 to 75. About 348 women with a history of frequent UTIs will take either U101 or a placebo daily for 24 weeks. Researchers will track…

This study tests whether taking D-mannose, a natural sugar, daily for a year can prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in post-menopausal women aged 55 and older. Researchers will compare D-mannose to a placebo in 90 women who have had multiple UTIs. The goal is to se…

This study tests whether washing the bladder with a harmless strain of E. coli can prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in people who have failed other treatments. Researchers will compare the harmless bacteria wash to a saltwater wash in 80 participants, tracking ho…

This study aims to better understand and treat people with certain inherited metabolic or genetic disorders. Researchers will use standard medical tests like blood work and imaging to diagnose and care for participants, who may also join other related studies. The goal is to expa…
