Clarithromycin

Summary: To conduct an unblinded pragmatic randomized controlled trial (pRCT) Improvement of PPROM Management with Prophylactic Antimicrobial Therapy (iPROMPT) of a seven-day course of ceftriaxone, clarithromycin, and metronidazole versus the current standard of care of a seven-day course of ampicillin/amoxicillin and azithromycin or erythromycin to prolong pregnancy and decrease adverse perinatal outcomes...

Summary: This study focuses on patients with H. pylori-positive resectable locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastric and oesophagogastric junction. It evaluates the perioperative oxaliplatin with S-1 (SOX) combined H. pylori eradication versus oxaliplatin with S-1 in the management of H. pylori-positive locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastric and oesophagogastric junction (cT3/4a Nx or T2 N2/3,...

Summary: This study, titled CURE-H. Pylori, is a three-arm, parallel-group, open-label, randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of Dexlansoprazole, Lansoprazole, and Vonoprazan in combination with Levofloxacin and Amoxicillin for Helicobacter pylori eradication. H. pylori infection is a significant health issue worldwide, with an estimated prevalence of 44% globally and around 60...

Summary: 1. Compare the efficacies and safety of 14-day bismuth-amoxicillin-vonoprazan tiple therapy, 14-day vonoprazan dual therapy and 14-day rabeprazole triple therapy in the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection. 2. To investigate the impacts of antibiotic resistance of H. pylori as well as CYP3A4, CYP2C19 and IL-1B -511 genotypes of host on the eradication efficacies of anti-H. pylori treatments...

Summary: Bronchiectasis is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease defined as the irreversible dilatation of one or more bronchi and is associated with chronic and frequently purulent expectoration, multiple exacerbations and progressive dyspnea. Bronchiectasis has a large heterogeneity. Different patients with bronchiectasis may have different etiology, clinical manifestations, and imaging features. Pr...

Summary: This study will independently assess the efficacy and safety of 11 combination therapies in 12 arms, in dose-escalation/-evaluation and expansion phases, for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) and newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). The combinations to be evaluated are: * Arm 1: Selinexor + dexamethasone + pomalidomide (SPd); enrollment complete * Arm 2...

Summary: Gastric cancer remains a global health problem, and Chile has one of the highest GC mortality rates in the region. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is ubiquitous in Chilean adults, and it constitutes the main cause of GC worldwide. A long-term process occurs from premalignant lesions to carcinoma. H. pylori eradication during early stages of disease significantly impacts outcomes, favorin...

Summary: The primary objective of the REACT randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to optimize the clinical benefit from adjunctive clarithromycin treatment shown in the ACCESS trial and to provide evidence for the clinical benefit of early start of adjunctive oral clarithromycin guided by suPAR to prevent the progression into sepsis in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) at risk. This can be achi...

Summary: Helicobacter pylori infection is a widespread bacterial disease affecting nearly half of the world's population. In children, the infection displays distinct features versus adults, with lower prevalence, variable symptoms, and differing endoscopic and histological appearances. Typically acquired in early childhood, its transmission is closely linked to socio-economic disadvantage and overcrowding...

Summary: Treatment of Mycobacterium xenopi (MX) lung disease is not-well- tolerated and concerned a growing number of patients, especially with chronic pulmonary diseases or immunosuppression. The outcome of these patients is poor, and treatment is very long. Indeed, this duration is based on the date of sputum conversion. Treatment should be continued until 12 months after sputum conversion. In the vast m...

Summary: MAC lung infections are a growing public health problem. The ATS / IDSA 2007 guidelines for the treatment of these non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections recommend the use of a macrolide or azalide (clarithromycin or azithromycin), rifampicin or rifabutin and ethambutol. For MAC disseminated infections, several studies have compared combinations containing clarithromycin or azithromycin and foun...

Summary: H. pylori is an infection of the stomach that can cause chronic gastritis, gastric cancer and peptic ulcer disease. The goal of this study is to screen people for this infection and offer treatment for those who test positive for the infection. By treating those who are positive for H. pylori, there is an opportunity to prevent gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and even gastric cancer.
