This trial investigates whether a rapid C-reactive protein (CRP) blood test can help doctors decide when antibiotics are truly needed for adults with acute respiratory infections in Indonesian primary health clinics. Many such infections are viral and do not require antibiotics, …

This study tests whether ColdZyme mouth spray can lower the amount of virus people breathe out when they have a cold or flu. Researchers will measure virus particles in exhaled air before and after using the spray. The goal is to see if the spray might help reduce airborne transm…

This study looks at people with a mix of two lung conditions caused by the fungus Aspergillus: chronic pulmonary aspergillosis and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. Researchers want to see if adding steroid pills to the standard antifungal drug itraconazole works better th…

This study tests whether giving oral antibiotics instead of IV antibiotics is just as safe and effective for patients with common infections like pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and cellulitis. About 4,000 adults in Danish emergency rooms will be randomly assigned to start o…

This Phase 1 trial tests a new radioactive tracer called [18F]-Fluorocellobiose ([18F]FCB) for PET/CT scans. The goal is to see if it can help find invasive mold infections in the body. The study includes healthy volunteers and people with known fungal infections. Participants re…

This study is testing a finger-prick blood test called FebriDx in 800 children aged 2-11 who have a fever and symptoms of a respiratory infection. The goal is to see if the test can quickly tell whether the infection is caused by bacteria or something else (like a virus). If accu…

This study aims to create and test a clinical prediction score called FUNGAL-P to help doctors identify fungal pneumonia early in adults who come to the hospital with pneumonia. Researchers will analyze medical records from past patients and then test the score on new patients to…

This study is testing a new diagnostic tool that helps doctors quickly tell if a respiratory infection is caused by bacteria or a virus. The goal is to see if using this test leads to better treatment decisions, fewer unnecessary antibiotics, and lower healthcare costs. About 100…

This study tests a new type of PET scan that uses a radioactive fungal component to see if it can light up areas of Aspergillus infection in the body. Ten adults with suspected invasive fungal infections will receive the scan. The goal is to see if this method can accurately loca…

This study gathers fluid and tissue from the lungs and nose of healthy volunteers and people with a history of lung infections. Researchers will compare samples to find differences in immune function that might explain why some people are more prone to infections. Participants un…

This study will follow 2,000 people of all ages who visit their doctor with symptoms of an acute respiratory infection, like cough, sore throat, or runny nose. Researchers will collect information on symptoms, treatments, and lab results to better understand how these infections …

This study aims to understand why some people get severe or unusual fungal infections due to immune system problems. Researchers will collect blood, tissue, and other samples from up to 1,200 participants over 25 years. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is to learn mor…

This study aims to identify the types of fungi causing pneumonia in immunocompromised ICU patients and test how resistant they are to antifungal drugs. Researchers will collect samples from 250 adults in intensive care who have pneumonia that does not respond to antibiotics. The …

This study will collect medical information and samples from 300 cancer patients who have or are at risk for a serious fungal infection called mucormycosis. Researchers hope to learn more about how the infection develops and how to better diagnose and manage it. Participants will…

This study tracks respiratory infections in thousands of patients across China to build a better early warning system. Researchers collect routine medical data and samples to identify which germs are circulating and how the body responds. The goal is to help hospitals and health …

This study tests whether implementing new Swiss national guidelines for acute respiratory infections can reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescribing in primary care. Researchers will work with 200 family doctors in quality circles and walk-in clinics, providing training and materia…

This study is observing 2,000 children under 2 years old in Ho Chi Minh City who have respiratory infections. Researchers will test for RSV, track how the virus spreads across seasons, and measure the illness's impact on families, including medical costs. No new treatments or vac…

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 tests two ways to help general practitioners (GPs) use antimicrobial stewardship resources when treating respiratory tract infections. One group gets online training and self-audit tools; the other gets face-to-face support. Researchers will track how often GPs use the…

This study looks at whether a quick lab test (Spotfire R/ST) can help doctors decide when antibiotics are truly needed for people with respiratory infections like colds or sore throats. About 800 urgent care patients will take part, and researchers will compare antibiotic use bef…

This study looks at whether measuring Aspergillus fumigatus DNA in blood or lung fluid can help predict outcomes in patients with invasive aspergillosis, a serious fungal lung infection. Researchers will track 100 adults to see if changes in PCR levels during treatment relate to …

This study will follow 1,000 adults who come to fever clinics with a respiratory infection. Researchers will collect data on symptoms, lab tests, and chest scans at the start, then check in over time to see who develops pneumonia or other complications. The goal is to better unde…

This study in Kyrgyzstan is testing whether using a rapid C-reactive protein (CRP) blood test and giving patients an information leaflet can help doctors prescribe fewer antibiotics for respiratory infections like coughs and sore throats. About 1050 adults will be randomly assign…

This study monitors the immune system of 20 adults with serious mold infections (like Aspergillus) to see how their T cells respond. The goal is to find out which patients might benefit from adding immunotherapy to standard antifungal drugs. Researchers will measure immune checkp…

This study is trying to understand why some people with severe flu in the ICU develop a dangerous fungal lung infection called aspergillosis. Researchers will compare the immune systems of 45 flu patients and non-flu pneumonia patients in the ICU. They hope to find differences in…
