This is a Phase III clinical randomized control trial to investigate differences between patient with an infected nonunion treated by PO vs. IV antibiotics. The study population will be 250 patients, 18 years or older, being treated for infected nonunion after internal fixation of a fracture with a segmental defect less than one centimeter. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the treatment (group 1) PO antibiotics for 6 weeks or the control group (group 2) IV antibiotics for 6 weeks. The primary hypothesis is that the effectiveness of oral antibiotic therapy is equivalent to traditional intravenous antibiotic therapy for the treatment of infected nonunion after fracture internal fixation, when such therapy is combined with appropriate surgical management. Clinical effectiveness will be measured as the primary outcome as the number of secondary re-admissions related to injury and secondary outcomes of treatment failure (re-infection, nonunion, antibiotic complications) within the first one year of follow-up, as defined by specified criteria and determined by a blinded data assessment panel. In addition, treatment compliance, the cost of treatment, the number of surgeries required, the type and incidence of complications, and the duration of hospitalization will be measured.

People who inject drugs are at risk of injection-related infections, like abscesses or infective endocarditis. The Injection-Related InfectionS (IRIS) program hopes to improve treatment for participants by providing a low-barrier, one-stop shop model for people who inject drugs who experience injection-related infections to access more holistic and compassionate care. IRIS is a non-randomized clinical trial, meaning that it offers a specific program to eligible patients. This program offers care for substance use and infectious disease with additional peer support and systems navigation, if interested. The investigators anticipate enrolling 80 participants in the intervention and will follow participants throughout the infection treatment period (estimated 6-12 weeks). The investigators will collect information at the time of enrolment, at the 6-month mark, and monthly via electronic medical chart review. The investigators will use an interrupted time series analysis to evaluate the impact of the intervention on rates of treatment completion, emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and death, before versus after the intervention.

Background: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease that causes wart-like growths in the airways. These growths come back when removed; some people may need 2 or more surgeries per year to keep their airways clear. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To see if a drug called bevacizumab can reduce the number of surgeries needed in people with RRP. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older with recurrent RRP; they must need surgery to remove the growths in their airways. Design: Participants will be screened. Their ability to breathe and speak will be evaluated. They will have an endoscopy: a flexible tube with a light and camera will be inserted into their nose and throat. They will have a test of their heart function and imaging scans of their chest. Participants will have surgery to remove the growths in their airways. Bevacizumab is given through a small tube placed in a vein in the arm. After the surgery, participants will receive 11 doses of this drug: every 3 weeks for 3 doses, and then every 6 weeks for 8 more doses. They will come to the clinic for each dose; each visit will be about 8 hours. Tissue samples of the growths will be collected after the second treatment; this will be done under general anesthesia. Participants may undergo apheresis: Blood will be drawn from a needle in an arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the cells needed for the study. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a second needle. Follow-up will continue for 1 year after the last treatment.

This is a Phase 3 multi-center, group-randomized, crossover trial to compare nasal antimicrobial photodisinfection therapy (aPDT) with standard of care for prevention of surgical site infections in patients undergoing major elective, urgent, or emergent surgeries in a hospital setting. The main outcomes are to: 1. compare the efficacy, and 2. estimate the safety of applying nasal (aPDT) before surgery in reducing the incidence of SSIs within the initial 30 days after surgery compared to standard of care (SOC). Participants in the intervention group will receive aPDT prior to surgery on the day of surgery. Participants in the control group will receive standard of care surgical site prevention measures prior to surgery.

A pre/post interventional use trial, with ED patients who are initially triaged to locations other than a dedicated patient room in the main ED (e.g., waiting room, hallway bed, and/or the staging area/fast track area) with suspected infection and tachycardia or fever will be enrolled. Study conduct will be performed under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Participants in the pre-phase, treated with standard of care, will be gathered from a retrospective database using propensity matching, whereas participants in the post-phase will be managed incorporating the TriVerity™ Acute Infection and Sepsis Test results with standardized guidance for interpretation and resulting management actions. Many outcomes will be captured and compared between the pre- and post-phase phases including sepsis bundle compliance, patient disposition, appropriate use of antimicrobials (antibiotics and antivirals) and health economic findings. Safety measures for participants in the post-phase will include patient follow-up at predefined time points. The objective is to demonstrate improvement of patient management when incorporating the TriVerity Test result compared to standard of care. Improvements based on diagnostic (bacterial vs viral vs non-infectious inflammation) and prognostic (need for 7-day ICU level care) readouts of the TriVerity Test result will be tracked.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Infections And Infestations clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Infections And Infestations clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Infections And Infestations trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Infections And Infestations is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Infections And Infestations medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Infections And Infestations clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Antimicrobial Therapy for Infections, TriVerity Test for Infections and Rhu-pGSN for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome to the Power online platform.
