| 4 | Impact Evaluation of A Prescription Search Support (PSS) for Antimicrobials Using A Stepped-Wedge Cluster Randomized Design in Belgian Primary Care PF:2 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts Highlight: Inappropriate antibiotic prescribing in primary care remains an important contributor to antimicrobial resistance. Despite the availability of evidence-based clinical guidelines, antibiotics are still frequently prescribed for self-limiting infections. Digital clinical decision support tools may help general practitioners (GPs) align prescribing decisions with guideline recommendations during patient consultations. This study evaluates the impact of a digital Prescription Support System (PSS) designed to support antimicrobial prescribing in Belgian primary care. The PSS provides guideline-based recommendations derived from the Belgian BAPCOC guidelines for common infections in ambulatory care. Recommendations are presented through a user-friendly decision tree that is integrated into existing electronic health record systems and can be consulted during routine care. The study is embedded within the national implementation strategy of the PSS coordinated by the National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance (RIZIV-INAMI). A stepped-wedge cluster randomized design is used, in which participating general practices transition sequentially from usual care to access to the PSS over four predefined implementation steps. This approach ensures that all participating practices eventually receive access to the system while allowing comparisons over time. The primary objective is to assess whether implementation of the PSS is associated with changes in antibiotic prescribing in Belgian general practice. Prescribing outcomes are measured using routinely collected indicators from the Belgian Antibiotic Barometer, including overall antibiotic prescribing rates and the use of broad- versus narrow-spectrum antibiotics. Secondary objectives include assessing the usability and acceptability of the PSS among clinicians and identifying factors that influence its adoption in daily practice. The study will also monitor potential unintended consequences, such as changes in workflow or concerns about underprescribing. Findings from this study will inform future decisions regarding further optimization and wider implementation of the PSS in Belgian primary care. |

| 7 | Non-Inferiority Assessment of Valacyclovir Versus Valganciclovir As Prophylaxis Against CMV and EBV Viremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Single-Center Prospective Randomized Pilot Study PF:2 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts Highlight: Opportunistic CMV viremia (primary infection or reactivation) is usually managed by taking prophylactic medication for both adult and pediatric kidney transplant patients. Most hospitals prescribe valganciclovir for this purpose but valacyclovir has also been used. The most unfavorable side effect of valganciclovir is bone marrow suppression which can be troublesome for kidney transplant patients who are already immunosuppressed. We aim to assess the non-inferiority of valacyclovir compared with valganciclovir in this study. |

| 13 | Kinetics of INF-γ Production in Intensive Care Patients-Monitoring of INF-γ in Intensive Care PF:3 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts Highlight: Most patients admitted to intensive care after severe trauma, high-risk surgery, or acute respiratory distress are frequently characterized by significant initial inflammation accompanied by a compensatory anti-inflammatory response, which can lead to profound post-aggressive immunosuppression. This immunosuppression is associated with an increased risk of nosocomial infections, viral reactivations, prolonged ICU stays, and ultimately, increased mortality. Consequently, immunostimulation with agents such as interferon gamma (IFN-γ) has been proposed as a means to restore immune defense in the most severe patients. However, in a recent study conducted on mechanically ventilated patients with acute organ failure, … |

Safety will be assessed at each dose level before proceeding to the next dose level. A special statistical technique called the Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) will be used to determine when higher doses of virus can be administered. Other objectives of the study include characterization of the activity of C134 after inoculation into the tumor and of the local and systemic immune responses to C134. Patients will also be followed with MRI scans for potential clinical response to C134. The clinical strategy takes advantage of the virus’ ability to infect and kill tumor cells while making new virus within the tumors cells; a critical enhancement of this effect is accomplished by the induction of an anti-tumor immune response; both effects are produced by the IRS-1 gene that was placed into the virus by genetic engineering. An additional important component of the research are systematic assessments of the quality of life on treated patients. |

| 167 | Prospective Evaluation of The Impact of Bacterial Vaginosis and Its Treatment on Mucosal Susceptibility to HIV-1 Infection and Endpoints of Cervico-Vaginal Safety PF:2 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts Highlight: This is a research study to determine whether bacterial vaginosis (BV) changes the cervico-vaginal tissue (skin covering the cervix and vagina) and makes women at higher risk for getting HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). Vaginal and cervical tissue biopsies from women with BV will be obtained and infected OUTSIDE the body (ex vivo) with HIV. BV is a vaginal infection that develops when there is an imbalance in the normal bacteria found in a woman’s vagina. It is the most common cause of vaginal discharge among women of child-bearing age. BV infections potentially harm the safety of the tissue surrounding the cervico-vaginal region. When the cervico-vaginal tissue is not well protected, the risk of acquiring HIV from an infected partner might increase significantly. Studies have shown that HIV is more common in women with BV than in women with normal vaginal bacteria. Treatment of BV typically involves the use of antibiotics. Antibiotics kill harmful bacteria and provide a temporary relief from the symptoms caused by the infection. Women participating in this study will use the generic antibiotic metronidazole, also known as Flagyl. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends Flagyl for the treatment of BV. The study will evaluate HIV infection and safety of cervico-vaginal tissue in women at 3 different time periods: 1. During a BV infection 2. Approximately 1 week after completing a 7-day course of metronidazole therapy 3. Approximately 1 month after completing the 7-day course of metronidazole therapy You will not come in contact with HIV during this study – only your samples (after we have removed them from your vagina/cervix) come in contact with HIV. |
