|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| New Indication | NCT03257423 ↗ | Acute Appendicitis and Microbiota - Etiology of Appendicitis and Antibiotic Therapy Effects | Enrolling by invitation | Helsinki University Central Hospital | N/A | 2017-04-04 | Appendicectomy has been the treatment of acute appendicitis for over a hundred years. Appendicectomy, however, includes operative and postoperative risks despite being a routine procedure. Several studies have proved promising results of the safety and efficiency of antibiotics in the treatment of acute uncomplicated appendicitis. The previous APPAC study by the investigators, published in 2015 in the Journal of American Medical Association, also proved promising results with 73% of patients with uncomplicated appendicitis treated successfully with antibiotics. None of the patients initially treated with antibiotics that later had appendectomy had major complications. The results of the APPAC trial suggest that CT proven uncomplicated acute appendicitis is not a surgical emergency and antibiotic therapy is a safe first-line treatment option. Reducing unnecessary appendectomies has also been shown to lead to significant economic savings. On the other hand, antibiotic therapies have been shown to have an effect on the normal gut microbiota and are considered an increasing global health threat underlining the importance of evaluating both short- and long-term effects of the antimicrobial treatment in old and new indications. The aims of this randomized prospective study are: 1. To evaluate the possible role and differences in the microbiological etiology of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis. 2. To determine the effects of both antibiotic and placebo treatment on the composition of gut microbiota, and to evaluate how it recovers after the appendicitis-related antimicrobial treatment (AMT) 3. To evaluate the effects of the duration of the hospital stay on the AMR reservoir of the gut microbiota. |

| New Combination | NCT01589497 ↗ | Essentiality of INH in TB Therapy | Completed | National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) | Phase 2 | 2015-06-30 | Tuberculosis (TB) disease is caused by bacteria that have infected the lung. TB bacteria are very small living agents that are spread by coughing and can be killed by taking TB drugs. To kill these TB bacteria TB patients have to take a combination of four drugs for 2 months and then two drugs for a further 4 months. During the first 2 months patients take rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide. After that patients take only isoniazid and rifampicin for a further 4 months, making a total of 6 months therapy. In A5307 the investigators wanted to test a new combination of drugs to see if the investigators could treat TB faster in the future. Studies in animals have suggested that one of the four drugs, isoniazid, only works for a few days and may not be needed after the first two doses of TB treatment to kill the TB bacteria. After that its effects wear off to the point that it may even interfere with the other drugs. The investigators wanted to see if stopping isoniazid early, or using moxifloxacin, a different drug, instead could treat TB faster. This study was the first time that this type of regimen without isoniazid had been tested in humans. If the investigators could show that isoniazid stops working after a few days, the investigators could then try to see if they could possibly make a better tuberculosis treatment in the future. |

All Clinical Trials for moxifloxacin hydrochloride
| Trial ID | Title | Status | Sponsor | Phase | Start Date | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCT00082173 ↗ | Moxifloxacin As Part of a Multi-Drug Regimen For Tuberculosis | Completed | Johns Hopkins University | Phase 2 | 2004-10-01 | Current treatment of tuberculosis (TB) requires patients to take four drugs for 8 weeks and then two drugs for 4 months. New drug regimens that are shorter and effective against drug-resistant TB are needed. This study will evaluate whether using the drug moxifloxacin (MOX) in place of ethambutol (EMB) during the first 8 weeks of treatment will effectively treat TB. |
| NCT00042289 ↗ | Pharmacokinetic Study of Antiretroviral Drugs and Related Drugs During and After Pregnancy | Completed | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | 2003-03-01 | The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of antiretroviral (ARV) and tuberculosis (TB) medications in pregnant women and their infants. (Pharmacokinetics are the various interactions between a drug and the body.) This study will also evaluate the PKs of certain ARVs in postpartum women before and after starting hormonal contraceptives. The PKs of these drugs will be evaluated by measuring the amount of medicine present in blood and/or vaginal secretions. | |

| NCT00062231 ↗ | Moxifloxacin Compared With Ciprofloxacin/Amoxicillin in Treating Fever and Neutropenia in Patients With Cancer | Terminated | European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - EORTC | N/A | 2002-04-01 | RATIONALE: Antibiotics such as amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, and moxifloxacin may be effective in preventing or controlling fever and neutropenia in patients with cancer. It is not yet known whether moxifloxacin alone is more effective than amoxicillin combined with ciprofloxacin in treating neutropenia and fever. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well moxifloxacin works and compares it to ciprofloxacin together with amoxicillin in treating neutropenia and fever in patients with cancer. |
