Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhagic Fever, Ebola"

The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and tolerable Brincidofovir (BCV) is when given for post exposure prophylaxis of Ebola virus disease.

This is an open-label study evaluating the safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose of Ad26.ZEBOV administered to children who were previously vaccinated with Ad26.ZEBOV followed by MVA-BN-Filo 56 days later.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of the HPIV3-EbovZ GP Ebola vaccine candidate in healthy adults.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of amiodarone in the treatment of patients afflicted with Ebola virus disease.

This is a clinical trial in which healthy volunteers will be administered two experimental Ebola vaccines: ChAd3-EBO-Z and Ad26.ZEBOV. Four groups of volunteers will be vaccinated with both vaccines one after the other in a prime/boost regimen. All ChAd3-EBO-Z doses are 1x10^11 vp and all Ad26.ZEBOV doses are 5x10^10 vp. Group 1 will receive a ChAd3-EBO-Z priming vaccine and an Ad26.ZEBOV boosting vaccine 28 days later. Group 2 will receive an Ad26.ZEBOV priming vaccine and a ChAd3-EBO-Z boosting vaccine 28 days later. Group 3 will receive a ChAd3-EBO-Z priming vaccine and an Ad26.ZEBOV boosting vaccine 56 days later. Group 4 will receive an Ad26.ZEBOV priming vaccine and a ChAd3-EBO-Z boosting vaccine 56 days later. The study will assess the safety of the vaccinations, and the immune responses to vaccination. Immune responses are measured by tests on blood samples. The ChAd3-EBO-Z and Ad26.ZEBOV vaccines are called viral vectored vaccines. They are made from viruses which are modified so that they cannot multiply. The viruses have extra DNA in them so that after injection, the body makes Ebola proteins (but Ebola does not develop), so that the immune system builds a response to Ebola without having been infected by it. Healthy volunteers will be recruited in Oxford and London, England. The study will be co-funded by GSK Biologicals and Crucell Holland BV.

The purpose of this study is to assess two new Ebola vaccines: cAd3-EBO Z at 3 different doses, and a second vaccine, MVA-BN® Filo, at 3 different doses. The study will enable us to assess the safety of the vaccines and the extent of the immune response in healthy volunteers. The investigators will do this by giving volunteers a either one or two vaccinations, doing blood and saliva tests and collecting information about any symptoms that occur after vaccination. This is the first trial to use either of these vaccines in humans. We plan to recruit a total of 92 volunteers to be vaccinated.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Brincidofovir (BCV) when administered as an initial 200mg dose followed by 100mg twice weekly (BIW) for a total of 5 doses.

A Single-Center, Randomized, Blind, Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of the Adenovirus Type 5 Vector Based Ebola Virus Disease Vaccine (Ad5-EBOV) in Healthy Adults Aged Between 18 and 50 years in Sierra Leone.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of different vaccination schedules of Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo administered intramuscularly (IM) as 2-dose heterologous regimens in healthy and in HIV-infected adults.

The 2014 outbreak of Ebola in West Africa is the largest in recorded history with widespread and intense transmission in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. The high infectivity of blood and secretions, lack of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and challenges in following infection control and prevention protocols put healthcare workers at high risk during outbreaks, and direct contact with the bodies of deceased Ebola victims can also sustain community transmission. This study will accelerate introduction and use of monovalent recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus Ebola vaccine (rVSVΔG-ZEBOV) among healthcare workers and frontline personnel involved in the Ebola outbreak response in Sierra Leone, while concurrently evaluating the safety and efficacy of the vaccine. This is an unblinded, randomized trial with phased vaccine introduction in the target population. Participation in the study will be voluntary and open to adults 18 years of age and older who are at high risk of exposure to Ebola infection through their daily work and who work in a selected study area.
