Active clinical trials for "Infections"

Among the hemodialysis units, the global incidence of HCV infection ranges from 1.2% to 2.9%. Data regarding the long-term risk of reinfection among hemodialysis patients achieving SVR are limited. To our best knowledge, only one study assessed the long-term negativity of serum HCV RNA in hemodialysis patients who achieved SVR after IFN-based therapies. With a median follow-up of 48 months following SVR, the life-time cumulative survival for HCV RNA negativity was 86% among the 121 participants who were on maintenance dialysis. Furthermore, the life-time cumulative survival for HCV RNA negativity was 95% among the 45 participants who underwent renal transplantation from HCV-negative donors. Because the literatures regarding the long-term follow-up of viral outcome, the patient numbers to be recruited are still limited, and all studies are focused on IFN-based treatment, we aim to assess the long-term risk of HCV reinfection in hemodialysis patients attaining SVR by IFN-based or IFN-free therapies.

This cohort study aims to describe the adverse events related to the use of bacteriophages to treat serious infections, data from the literature being almost non-existent on this subject.

As previously shown, individuals who experienced COVID-19 have developed some protective immunity to reinfection. The magnitude and duration of protection from reinfection conferred by the infection may be weaker after an asymptomatic infection as it is after a symptomatic COVID-19 episode. Moreover, it is known that immunity decreases among older adults compared to younger individuals often referred to as ''immune senescence,'' and leading to a decreased efficacy of vaccination. This study raises the question of whether a single administration of BNT162b2 in participants with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to sufficient and durable immune response. We propose to evaluate the level of the single BNT162b2 vaccine dose response according to the severity of the previous SARS-CoV-2 infection in young and elderly participants with the same immunogenicity analyses to assess this response in participants receiving the two-dose vaccination regimen.

Dengue fever, an arbovirus transmitted by the Aedes mosquito, is a public health problem in all tropical and subtropical regions of the world. There is currently no antiviral treatment and vector control has shown its limits. The 2018 European marketing authorization of the tetravalent chimeric yellow fever / dengue vaccine (Dengvaxia®) is a major step forward in the fight against the disease. Dengvaxia® is indicated for the prevention of dengue due to serotypes DENV 1-4 in subjects aged 9 to 45 years with a history of infection with the dengue virus and living in endemic areas (seroprevalence of at least 70% in the target population). Dengue seroprevalence data in the French Caribbean territories of Martinique and Guadeloupe dates back to 2011 and concerns only adult blood donors aged 18 to 70 years. To date, no data exists for individuals aged 9 to 17 years in the region. In order to implement an optimal vaccine introduction strategy for these territories, the main aim of the DengueSEA study is to estimate the seroprevalence of the Dengue viruses (DENV 1-4) in 9-17 year olds giving a blood sample as part of care in hospital departments of the French Caribbean islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe.

This study evaluates the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of different formulations of the Na-GST-1 hookworm vaccine using a controlled human hookworm infection model in healthy, hookworm-naive adults.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of BEZ235 alone and in combination with RAD001 to support further development to reduce the incidence of respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in elderly subjects.

Phase IV prospective study measuring the immunogenicity (neutralizing antibody titles against each HPV vaccine genotype) of the 9-valent vaccine against HPV (Gardasil9®Merck) in HIV-positive women aged 15-40 years with fully suppressed HIV viremia on combined antiretroviral therapy. After a first open phase evaluating tolerability of Gardasil9 (from June 2018 to December 2018), an amendment was introduced to randomize women between two different doses schedules: in the first schedule (ARM A), women will receive 2 doses at time 0 and 6 months and a third dose between 18-48 months if their antibody levels are insufficient; the second schedule (ARM B) will be 3 doses at 0, 2 and 6 months. Primary outcome is the non-inferiority of the rate of seroconversion against each HPV vaccine genotypes in women seronegative at baseline after either 2 or 3 doses of vaccination (month 7). Secondary outcomes are rate of seroconversion after 3 doses if they have received a third dose, completion of vaccine schedule, vaccine safety, antibody titles, and induction of cellular immunity against HPV contained in the vaccine, incidence of cervical HPV infection and incidence of abnormal cytology after vaccination. The safety of the vaccination (local or systemic reaction and impact on HIV viral control and immunodeficiency level) will be assessed. The cellular immune response will be assessed in a subgroup of patients.

Study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and antiretroviral activity of a new therapeutic strategy, based on the administration of dasatinib, an ITK, in patients with recent (3-12 months) asymptomatic HIV-1 infection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Bivalent (Types 16,18) Vaccine (Escherichia coli) （HPV）and Measles Mumps and Rubella Combined Vaccine, Live（MMR）

Study objective: To clarify the risk of exposure to indirect contact and transmission of environmental objects during digestive endoscopy diagnosis and treatment for patients and medical staff, simulating by using Vitamin B2 solution. Study design: This is a case-only research.
