PNEUMONIA - BACTERIAL

This early-stage study tests a new pneumococcal vaccine booster in 45 toddlers aged 12-15 months who already received their routine pneumonia shots. The goal is to check for side effects like tenderness, fever, and sleepiness. The study compares the new vaccine to an existing one…

This early-stage trial tests MP101, a mix of two viruses that attack bacteria (phages), in 18 adults with Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia. Participants receive a single dose of MP101 or a placebo alongside standard antibiotics. The main goal is to check safety and how the body h…

This study compares a rapid test that identifies pneumonia-causing bacteria in about one hour to standard lab methods that take 2-4 days. Researchers want to see if the faster test helps doctors choose the right antibiotics sooner for 150 hospitalized patients with pneumonia. The…

This study will test whether a new urine-based test can accurately diagnose pneumococcal pneumonia in children under 5 in Malawi. Researchers will use 350 stored urine samples from healthy kids and those with pneumonia, comparing results to standard lab methods. If it works, this…
