Candidiasis

In this pilot study, prospectively acquired clinician-collected and participant-collected vaginal swab specimens will be obtained from up to 1000 individuals with signs and symptoms of vaginitis to develop and validate a bacterial vaginosis diagnostic algorithm and evaluate the performance of the Nanopath assay. The Nanopath assay is an amplification-free molecular test that detects pathogens associated with vaginitis. The performance of the Nanopath assay will be assessed by comparing Nanopath assay results to previously FDA-cleared commercial tests and yeast culture.

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.
