Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of Levofloxacin Triple Therapy for Helicobacter Pylori Eradication
Today, although the triple treatment with clarithromycin accepted as the primary treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection eradication is well tolerated, the eradication has been decreased to 65 %. However, the eradication resulting from TRIOL treatment with levofloxacin is expected [more...] to be 75 % or higher. If the target results can be reached, it will be concluded that TRIOL treatment with levofloxacin will be an alternative to the triple treatment with clarithromycin as the primary treatment.

Helicobacter – Lymphoma – Radiation Part I: Eradication, Part II: Radiation
The first objective of this study is to confirm the results of complete remission of low-grade gastric MALT lymphoma stage IE & II1E after H. pylori eradication on a larger number of patients (HELYX Part I). If there is no response to the antibiotic [more...] therapy, the role of radiotherapy on the course of gastric MALT lymphoma will be investigated as a consecutive therapeutic option for patients that are H. pylori- negative, t(11;18)-positive or failure candidates after eradication therapy. Furthermore, the method of radiation, and the radiation dose will be investigated and standardized. HELYX PART II is therefore a randomized equivalent study comparing the standard dose of 36Gy vs. a reduced dose of 25.2Gy locoregional. Additional molecular genetic analysis will be performed to try to understand pathogenetic mechanisms of lymphomagenesis.

Amoxicillin for the Treatment of Pediatric Autoimmune Disorders Associated With Streptococcal Infections
Bacteria carry substances on their surface called antigens. When antigens come into contact with the right kinds of cells in the body an immune reaction is caused. This reaction is often the symptoms of sickness that a patient feels. [more...] In order for the body to fight off the attack of antigens, it creates substances called antibodies. Antibodies counter the action of antigens and make the bacteria harmless. However, the immune system must learn how to make the right antibodies for the right antigens. Sometimes the body creates antibodies that confuse normal tissues as foreign and attack them. This is called an autoimmune reaction and sometimes occurs when the body is exposed to certain bacteria. One bacteria known for causing autoimmune reactions is Group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus (GABHS). This bacteria often causes throat infections commonly known as "strep throat". Some researchers believe that the autoimmune reaction associated with strep throat infections may cause neuropsychiatric disorders, like obsessive-compulsive disorder and/or tic disorder in children. As a result, each time a child with one of these disorders experiences an infection with GABHS his/her symptoms can reoccur or worsen. Researchers believe that by giving patients a certain antibiotic, they can prevent GABHS infection and thus prevent the return of symptoms. This study is designed to test the effectiveness of the antibiotic Amoxicillin for the treatment of Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections (PANDAS). Patients will receive Amoxicillin for six weeks and placebos "inactive sugar pills" for six weeks in order to see if the medication is truly working. Effectiveness of the treatment will be based on the presence or absence of symptoms. If at the end of the study Amoxicillin is proven to be effective treatment for PANDAS patients may be offered the opportunity to continue taking the medication for an additional six months.

Trial of Amoxicillin Compared With Placebo for Pneumonia in Children Aged 2-59 Months
Many children with "non-severe pneumonia" (cough and fast breathing) have neither clinical pneumonia as assessed by physicians nor pneumonia on chest radiographs. Inappropriate use of antibiotics for these cases is leading to resistant strains of bacteria in the community. [more...] Evidence shows that almost 50% of antibiotic prescription is unnecessary.As over half of antibiotic prescription for ARI are not necessary since most of these infections are viral and do not respond to antibiotic therapy which will be source of resistance in the community. To address this issue the investigators conducted this randomized, double blind placebo controlled clinical trial of oral Amoxicillin versus placebo in children with non-severe pneumonia taking into account all the necessary safety precautions for their well being. The study hypothesis was that the clinical outcome of children 2 to 59 months of age with cough and fast breathing (WHO defined non-severe pneumonia) with or without wheezing is equivalent, whether they are treated with amoxicillin or placebo.

Community Case Management of the Severe Pneumonia With Oral Amoxicillin in Children 2-59 Months of Age
Two-arm cluster randomized controlled trial located in Hala district, Pakistan to determine the impact of using Lady Health Workers (LHW) of National Program for Family Planning and Primary Health Care to diagnose and manage severe pneumonia with oral amoxicillin on [more...] treatment failure rates at day 6 among 2-59 month old children. LHWs in the control arm receive a refresher in standard pneumonia case management. LHWs in the intervention arm receive standard training that is enhanced to include training in the recognition of severe pneumonia and its home management with oral amoxicillin. Clusters are by Union Council (UC), administrator units consisting of 7 to 25 LHWs; each UC is randomized to either enhanced pneumonia case management with oral amoxicillin therapy (intervention) for severe pneumonia or standard case management and referral to the nearest health facility for treatment (control). Process indicators reflecting the LHW's ability to assess, classify and treat pneumonia in the intervention group and cost-effectiveness data is also being collected. Primary Hypothesis: Enhanced pneumonia case management and oral amoxicillin therapy for severe pneumonia delivered by LHWs in the community will result in a reduction in treatment failure among children 2 - 59 months of age with severe pneumonia who are treated by the LHW compared with those referred for care by the LHW. Secondary Hypotheses: 1. The proportion of treatment failure, [persistence of lower chest indrawing (LCI) or need for second line treatment between day 3 and day 14], will be less in the intervention arm compared with the control arm. 2. LHWs can adequately assess, classify, and treat severe pneumonia in 2 - 59 month old children, and adequately recognize and refer children who present with danger signs during initial antimicrobial therapy.

Clusters are by Union Council (UC), administrator units consisting of 7 to 25 LHWs; each UC is randomized to either enhanced pneumonia case management with oral amoxicillin therapy (intervention) for severe pneumonia or standard case management and referral to the nearest health facility for treatment (control). Process indicators reflecting the LHW's ability to assess, classify and treat pneumonia in the intervention group and cost-effectiveness data is also being collected. Primary Hypothesis: Enhanced pneumonia case management and oral amoxicillin therapy for severe pneumonia delivered by LHWs in the community will result in a reduction in treatment failure among children 2 - 59 months of age with severe pneumonia who are treated by the LHW compared with those referred for care by the LHW. Secondary Hypotheses: 1. The proportion of treatment failure, [persistence of lower chest indrawing (LCI) or need for second line treatment between day 3 and day 14], will be less in the intervention arm compared with the control arm. 2. LHWs can adequately assess, classify, and treat severe pneumonia in 2 - 59 month old children, and adequately recognize and refer children who present with danger signs during initial antimicrobial therapy.

Clinical trials allow volunteers access to medical treatment options before they are available to the general public. Participants often receive the best healthcare available for their condition.
Risks are a reality, however, and may include more frequent doctor visits, health risks (possibly life-threatening), and/or the treatment being ineffective. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect participants.
Amoxicillin Clinical Trials Information presented on ClinicalTrialsSearch.org is not intended to be a substitute for qualified medical advice visit or treatment with a real physician. We are not physicians. Always consult with a medical doctor (MD). ClinicalTrialsSearch.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects, including those specifically related to Amoxicillin. Clinical research trials and medical trials take place in hundreds of cities across the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally measure the effectiveness of new treatments and drugs. The purpose of the studies is to answer specific human health questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for doctors, government agencies, and private sector companies to find treatments for all kinds of conditions. Clinical trials allow volunteers access to medical treatment options before they are available to the general public. Many times the participants receive treatment for free, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Participants often receive the best healthcare available possible for their condition. Risks are a reality, however, and may include more frequent doctor visits, health risks (possibly life-threatening), and/or the treatment being ineffective. U.S. - based Amoxicillin studies are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect patients.
