PTX3-targeted Antifungal Prophylaxis

This is a prospective genetically-stratified randomized double-blind event-driven multicentre clinical trial to assess the efficacy of posaconazole-based antifungal prophylaxis allocation strategies for patients with acute myeloid leukemia who receive induction chemotherapy. Allocation strategy based on an invasive mold infection genetic risk will be double-blinded.

Vaginal Ecosystem and Network in the United States Study

The central premise of this study is that the intricate balance and diversity of the vaginal microbiome plays a pivotal role in the onset, progression, and severity of various gynecological conditions. Specifically, the research aims to investigate how imbalances in microbial communities, such as the overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria or the depletion of beneficial ones, are linked to conditions like Bacterial Vaginosis, Candidiasis, Urinary Tract Infections, Vaginal Atrophy, and others. By employing PCR testing and the outcomes of next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the microbiome, the study seeks to identify distinct microbial profiles and patterns that are characteristic of each condition. This nuanced understanding is expected to lead to more accurate and early diagnosis, facilitating personalized and effective treatment strategies that go beyond the conventional, often indiscriminate use of antibiotics.
