Active clinical trials for "Epstein-Barr Virus Infections"

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of tabelecleucel in participants with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) associated diseases.

Related donor Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) manufactured with the Miltenyi CliniMACS Prodigy Cytokine Capture System will be administered in children, adolescents and young adults with refractory EBV infection post Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AlloHSCT), with primary immunodeficiencies (PID) or post solid organ transplant.

Peri-implantitis is a high prevalence disease that affects Dental Implants, and can lead to the implant loss if untreated. This condition isn't really well known, and treatments can't provide predictable results. The aim of this study will be to establish a link between the Epstein Barr Virus and the Peri-implantitis, as suggested by recent studies.

The present study was a prospective one-arm clinical study, in which EBV-HLH/chronic active EBV infection patients were selected as the main subjects to evaluate the effect of PD-1 antibody and lenalidomide regimens on ebv-dna and safety.

Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can expose patients to a transient but marked immunosuppression, during which viral infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Adoptive transfer of virus-specific T cells is an attractive approach to restore protective T-cell immunity in patients with refractory viral infections after allogeneic HSCT. The aim of this Phase III trial is to confirm efficacy of this treatment in children and adults.

Worldwide, 95% of adults are infected with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). These infections may cause different diseases. In most cases, EBV infection is asymptomatic because of a highly effective host immune response. Some individuals develop infectious mononucleosis (a self-limiting lymphoproliferative disorder in adolescents and young adults that is considered to be the primary infection), while others develop chronic fatigue syndrome, EBV-associated lymphoid, or epithelial malignancies. Today, there is no available treatment to treat and destroy EBV. The treatment is essentially symptomatic (treatment of the symptoms and not of the virus itself) with analgesics for pain for example. The studied drugs are 2LEBV® and 2LXFS®, from Labo'Life company, and the treatment schema is the same for the two drugs: it consists in taking the content of one capsule per day, sequentially, according to capsules' numerical order: 1 through 10. When capsule number 10 is taken, capsule 1 of the next blister should be taken on the next day to continue the treatment. The duration of treatment will be of 6 months of continuous intake of the content of 1 capsule/day. The aim of this study is to provide additional information on effectiveness on the 2LEBV® and 2LXFS®in the treatment of EBV chronic and acute infections, and in particular to demonstrate their effectiveness versus placebo in the reduction of asthenia and other symptoms in EBV infection.

This is an open label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study to assess the safety/tolerability and preliminary clinical activity of STAR0602 as a single agent administered intravenously in participants with advanced solid tumors that are antigen-rich.

The subject has a type of cancer or lymph gland disease associated with a virus called Epstein Barr Virus (EBV), which has come back, is at risk of coming back, or has not gone away after standard treatments. This research study uses special immune system cells called LMP, BARF-1 and EBNA1- specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (MABEL CTLs). Some patients with Lymphoma (such as Hodgkin (HD) or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL)), T/NK-lymphoproliferative disease, or CAEBV, or solid tumors such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), smooth muscle tumors, and leiomyosarcomas show signs of a virus called EBV before or at the time of their diagnosis. EBV causes mononucleosis or glandular fever ("mono" or the "kissing disease"). EBV is found in the cancer cells of up to half the patients with HD and NHL, suggesting that it may play a role in causing Lymphoma. The cancer cells (in lymphoma) and some immune system cells (in CAEBV) infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape destruction. EBV is also found in the majority of NPC and smooth muscle tumors, and some leiomyosarcomas. We want to see if special white blood cells (MABEL CTLs) that have been trained to kill EBV infected cells can survive in your blood and affect the tumor. In previous studies, EBV CTLs were generated from the blood of the patient, which was often difficult if the patient had recently received chemotherapy. Also, it took up to 1-2 months to make the cells, which is not practical when a patient needs more urgent treatment. To address these issues, the MABEL CTLs were made in the lab in a simpler, faster, and safer way. The MABEL CTLs will still see LMP proteins but also two other EBV proteins called EBNA-1 and BARF. To ensure these cells are available for use in patients in urgent clinical need, we have generated MABEL CTLs from the blood of healthy donors and created a bank of these cells, which are frozen until ready for use. We have previously successfully used frozen T cells from healthy donors to treat EBV lymphoma and virus infections and we now have improved our production method to make it faster. In this study, we want to find out if we can use banked MABEL CTLs to treat HD, NHL, T/NK-lymphoproliferative disease, CAEBV, NPC, smooth muscle tumors or leiomyosarcoma. We will search the bank to find a MABEL CTL line that is a partial match with the subject. MABEL CTLs are investigational and not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

The main objective of Part A of this trial is to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1189 in 18- to 30-year-old healthy adults and the main objective of Part B is to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1189 in 12- to <18-year-old EBV-seronegative healthy adolescents.

Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes most cases of infectious mononucleosis (mono). Mono can cause fatigue that lasts more than 6 months, and some people can have severe complications. EBV infection may also contribute to some cancers and autoimmune diseases. Currently, there are no approved therapies or vaccines for EBV infection. Objective: To test a vaccine against EBV. Eligibility: Healthy people aged 18 to 22 years. Design: Participants will be screened in 2 parts. They will have a blood test. If that test shows they have never had an EBV infection, they will have a second clinic visit. They will have a physical exam, with blood and urine tests. A cotton swab will be rubbed on their gums to collect saliva. Participants will receive 2 injections into a shoulder muscle. Some will receive the EBV vaccine. Others will receive a placebo; this contains harmless salt water with no vaccine. Participants will not know which one they are getting. The 2 injections will be 30 days apart. Participants will be asked to record any side effects or symptoms they have between visits. They can do this on paper or online. Participants will return for a follow-up visit 60 days after the first injection. They will have follow-up visits by phone or telehealth after 5 and 8 months. They will return for a physical exam after 13 months. They may come back for an optional physical exam after 2 years. Participants will come to the clinic if they become ill with an EBV infection during the study.
