Active clinical trials for "Enterovirus Infections"

Trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nitazoxanide in the treatment of colds due to enterovirus/rhinovirus infection

The Phase I clinical trial is divided into two parts. The first part uses an open-label design, while the second part uses a randomized, double-blind, and controlled design. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of a bivalent (EV71/CA16, Enterovirus 71/Coxsackievirus A16) inactivated enterovirus vaccine (Vero cell) developed by Sinovac. The vaccine will be administered to healthy adults, children aged 6 to 12 years, and children aged 6 to 71 months. The Phase II clinical trial will also use a randomized, double-blind, and controlled design to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the same bivalent inactivated enterovirus vaccine (Vero cell) developed by Sinovac. This trial will involve healthy children aged 6 to 71 months.

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the EV71vaccine efficacy, immune response and safety profiles after two injections of the cell culture-based inactivated EV71 vaccine with adjuvant Al(OH)3 administrated in pediatric population aged 2 months to 6 years old.

Beyond EV-B, there are clinical observations to implicate other viruses in birth defects, including CHD. Since the Rubella epidemic of 1960s', however, viruses have received little attention and certainly no comprehensive study, especially using next generation sequencing (NGS), has been undertaken in this context. The current pandemic as well as those caused by Zika, influenza, Ebola and Lassa Fever (among many) have shown pregnant women and their baby are at high risk. Therefore, an open-minded approach is warranted when considering the role of maternal viral infections in CHD. Even less is known about maternal immune response, such as antibody production, to these viruses. The investigator's goal is to answer the above gaps in knowledge. The investigators propose to do that using two different approaches; one retrospective (analysis of samples in two existing, large biorepositories) and the other prospective. The investigator's have created a multi-disciplinary team to bring together the needed expertise from individuals who have overlapping and vested interest in this project. The investigator's specific aim is to examine the diversity of the gut virome in non-pregnant and pregnant women with and without diabetes, with special emphasis on known cardiotropic viruses (those with tropism for cardiac tissues). This study is seen by the investigator's as the first step prior to a larger prospective multi-institutional study to specifically assess the linkage between the maternal virome and CHD pathogenesis.

The purposes of this study are to test whether GAD vaccination can stop the progression of newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, to describe the related immunological processes (insulitis) in pancreas and small intestines evolving the mechanism of the effect of GAD vaccination and finally try to detect viruses and virus receptors directly in the insulin producing beta cells of the pancreas in patients with newly diagnosed type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1D).

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 96 children and adolescents age 6-15 newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes to describe the influence of antiviral treatment (Pleconaril and Ribavirin) on progression of disease and residual insulin secretion.

The purpose of the trial is to evaluate CUR-N399, a PI4KB inhibitor, in a first-in-human trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics profile of single and multiple ascending doses in healthy adults. In the SAD part of the trial, single oral doses of CUR-N399 will be administered in 5 sequential cohorts. In all cohorts, safety and PK will be assessed before and after dose. Exploratory nasopharyngeal swab for assessment of airway infectants will be performed before dose and in the morning of Day 3. In SAD part Cohort 4: A urine sample will be taken from the first morning void on Day 1 and urine will be collected for potential quantification of CUR-N399 (and metabolites) during the first 24 hours post-dose. The MAD part of the trial will explore multiple ascending dosing of CUR-N399. The initial dose, dose escalation and dosing schedule will be based on emerging knowledge of safety, tolerability and PK of CUR-N399 observed in the SAD part of the trial. CUR-N399 will be administered in 3 sequential cohorts. An additional MAD cohort will evaluate CUR-N399 in older adults ≥65 years. All SAD and MAD cohorts will evaluate 8 subjects. Within each cohort, subjects will be randomised in a 3:1 ratio to receive CUR-N399 (n=6) or placebo (n=2) in a blinded fashion.

Trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of nitazoxanide in the treatment of colds due to Enterovirus/Rhinovirus infection

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the immune response and safety profiles of two injections of EV71 vaccine administrated with or without adjuvant Al(OH)3 at 0.5-μg and 1-μg dose in children aged 3 to 6 years old and 2 to 35 months old infants/toddlers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Immunogenicity and safety of the simultaneously vaccination of Inactivated Enterovirus 71 Vaccine (EV71) and seasonal influenza vaccine(SIV)
