Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis B"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and Anti-HBV antibody persistence of hepatitis B vaccine with different doses and schedules. Hepatitis B vaccine with the regimens of 20μg, 0-1-6 mon and 60μg,0-1 or 0-2 mon will be administered to young adults, and the comparative immunogenicity among the three groups will be measured at 1 mon post-a series vaccination, 1- and 2-year after the first dose of the regimen. Furthermore, the safety of hepatitis B vaccine with different doses and schedules will also be evaluated.

A proof of concept (POC) study will be conducted in 44 volunteers that have been fully vaccinated against hepatitis B in the past (at least 5 years ago) to assess the safety and immunogenicity of intradermal vaccination with hepatitis B surface vaccine antigen using a newly developed intradermal injection device VAX-ID, compared to intramuscular and intradermal (Mantoux technique) injection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunotherapeutic activity of cemiplimab in participants with hepatitis B virus (HBV) on suppressive antiviral therapy.

The objective of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Hepatitis B and Haemophilus influenzae type b Conjugate Vaccine Adsorbed in Vietnamese infants aged 6-12 weeks. This is an open label, single group, bridging study.

Faced with high rates of immunization drop-out, Uganda's immunization program requires innovative approaches to address this weakness. Building upon Uganda's growing mHealth infrastructure to pilot a scalable short message service (SMS) system to remind caregivers of their children's upcoming vaccination visits, it was hypothesized that the SMS intervention will increase immunization coverage in a cost-effective and affordable manner that would make it scalable. The study design was an investigator-blinded, multi-center, parallel groups randomized controlled trial with randomization occurring at the caregiver level in select health facilities of Arua District in Uganda. Enrollment took place at the time of Pentavalent 1 vaccination, and both arms included standard of care provided by the health worker. However, in the intervention arm, caregivers also received SMS text messages reminding them to return for their children's second and third doses of Pentavalent vaccine (four and eight weeks after the first dose of Pentavalent vaccine) and measles-containing vaccine (9 months of age). The primary outcome of interest is vaccination coverage at 12 months of age among children enrolled in the study and will be measured by comparing Penta3 and MCV coverage between arms. The study will also examine the SMS impact on timeliness of vaccine receipt, as it is hypothesized that those children receiving the SMS intervention will be more likely to have timely vaccination than those in the control group. The study will also assess caregiver acceptability and cost-effectiveness of the SMS intervention. In addition to assessing its impact on strengthening the immunization program, this intervention has implications for strengthening other programs of the health system through similar health messaging directed toward caregivers.

Each Sci-B-Vac™ lot to be released to the market is tested in comparison to a reference batch,which has to be tested in a human clinical trial. This study was conducted by SciVac Ltd. to to evaluate the immunogenicity and explore the immune kinetics of Sci-B-Vac™ in support of its qualification as new reference standard which according to the European Pharmacopeia (Ph.Eur. 1056) should elicit ≥ 95% seroprotection rate (SPR) of Hepatitis B surface (HBs) antibody concentrations ≥ 10 milli-International Units (mIU) per ml in young, healthy adult subjects.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of a novel DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T fully liquid combined hexavalent vaccine (study vaccine) administered at 2, 4, and 6 months of age compared to Sanofi Pasteur's DTaP-IPV//PRP~T combined vaccine (Pentaxim™) given at 2, 4, and 6 months of age and Hep B vaccine (Euvax B®) given at 1 and 6 months of age in South Korean infants that received a birth dose of Hep B and born to mothers documented to be serum anti-HBs Ag negative. Primary Objective To demonstrate the non-inferiority in terms of seroprotection (Diphtheria, Tetanus, poliovirus types 1, 2, and 3, PRP-T, Hep B) and vaccine response for pertussis antigens (pertussis toxoid [PT] and filamentous haemagglutinin [FHA]) of Group A versus Group B, one month after the third dose of combined vaccines. Secondary Objectives: To further study the immunogenicity of the two vaccination schemes, before the first dose and one month after the last dose of vaccines. To study the safety after each and any dose of vaccines administered in the two vaccination schemes

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the combination of abatacept along with entecavir (the study drugs) is safe and effective in treating symptoms related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Abatacept, given in an intravenous (IV - injected into a vein) as well as subcutaneous form, is approved by the FDA for the treatment of RA. In this research, abatacept will be given by injection. A subcutaneous injection is an injection given under the skin. Entecavir, to be taken by mouth, is approved by the FDA for the treatment of hepatitis B. The study is divided into the following time periods: Screening Phase: Up to 4 weeks Randomized Double-blind Phase: 24 weeks Open-label Extension Phase: 24 weeksFollow-up Phase: a phone call after Week 48 Each phase contains one or more study visits.

Primary objective: To determine the safety and immunogenicity of tetanus and diphtheria toxoids adsorbed combined with component pertussis and inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine grown on vero cells (TdcP-IPV) compared to tetanus and diphtheria toxoids adsorbed combined with component pertussis and inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine grown on vero cells (TdcP-IPV) and Hepatitis B vaccine administered concurrently in adolescents 11-14 years of age. Secondary objective: To determine whether concurrent administration of TdcP-IPV and Hepatitis B vaccines at 11-14 years of age results in detectable immunologic interactions between components of the two vaccines.

The purpose of this study is to describe the immunogenicity and safety of a novel DTaP- IPV- Hep B-PRT~T fully liquid combined hexavalent vaccine (Hexaxim™) administered at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age in infants born to mothers documented to be serum anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) serology negative in India. Primary Objective: To evaluate the immunogenicity of the study vaccine in terms of seroprotection [diphtheria toxoid, tetanus toxoid, poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) polysaccharide (PRP), hepatitis B (Hep B)] and vaccine response for pertussis antigens [pertussis toxoid (PT) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA)] one month after the third dose. Secondary Objectives: To further describe the immunogenicity of the study vaccine, before the first dose and one month after the third dose. To describe the safety after each and any doses of the study vaccine.
