Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Tract Infections"

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of vapendavir treatment of laboratory-confirmed and symptomatic HRV infection of the upper respiratory tract in allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplant subjects. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of vapendavir on laboratory-confirmed HRV upper-respiratory tract infection in HSCT patients, as measured by viral load changes, worsening of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) to lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), duration of clinical symptoms, the occurrence of supplemental oxygen use, duration of viral shedding, hospital admission and duration of hospitalization, incidence of secondary bacterial infection, and mortality rates. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of vapendavir, and the vapendavir plasma levels achieved in the HSCT population, and the profile of viral resistance development will also be assessed.

The study will describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of up to 6 RSV vaccine formulations when administered alone or concomitantly with seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine (SIIV).

A study to investigate if inhaled Interferon beta-1a is safe and tolerated, and can prevent or reduce the severity of asthma attacks when administered to asthma patients at the onset of symptoms of common cold or influenza

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the antiviral effect and safety of inhaled ALX-0171 in adults diagnosed with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) respiratory tract infection after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The secondary objective is to assess the clinical activity, pharmacokinetics (PK), virology, and immunogenicity of inhaled ALX 0171 in adults diagnosed with RSV respiratory tract infection after HSCT.

The purpose of the study is to assess the short term efficacy of the Theraflu Aktiv powder for oral solution in the Russian population as compared to an untreated group to support the indication of "Short term relief of the symptoms of colds, chills and influenza, including mild to moderate pain, fever and nasal congestion".

The purpose of the study is to assess the short term efficacy of the Theraflu Night powder for oral solution in the Russian population in "Short term relief of the symptoms of colds, chills and influenza, including mild to moderate pain, fever and nasal congestion".

A safety study to compare the effect of two different formulations of PrEP-001 nasal powder when dosed in healthy subjects

The purpose of the study was to evaluate efficacy of prophylactic Ingavirin intake by people having contact with sick people infected with influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections

The purpose of this study is to conduct a Randomized Control Trial (RCT) in a developing country setting in order to evaluate the role of alcohol based hand sanitizers (ABHS) in preventing the transmission of infectious diseases in areas where water is a scarce resource. The investigators want to find out if the use of ABHS reduces the incidence of two leading causes of morbidity and mortality in children under 5 years of age in the developing world: acute diarrheal disease (ADD) and acute respiratory infections (ARI).

Diarrheal diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally in children less than 5 years of age. Prolonged diarrhea, recurrent infections and growth failure in developing countries are usually a consequence of micronutrient deficiencies including zinc. The primary aims of the proposed study are to evaluate the effect of the use of multiple micronutrient sprinkles including zinc on compliance of supplement use and the incidence of recurrent diarrheal and respiratory illnesses. The proposed study will be conducted at the Fima Lifshitz Metabolic Research Center, Department of Pediatrics, Universidade Federal Da Bahia, Salvador-Bahia, Brazil over a period of 18 months. This is a double-blind placebo-controlled trial involving the use of 2 types of micronutrient sprinkles in a group of 120 children who attend a day care center in Salvador, Bahia. They will be randomized into 2 groups of 60 children each. The intervention group will receive sprinkles containing zinc while the control group will receive micronutrient sprinkles without zinc. The primary outcome variables of interest are zinc status, stool zinc losses and diarrhea duration. Both groups of infants will be monitored at monthly intervals for an initial duration of 180 days for zinc status, diarrhea episodes, respiratory illness and growth. This study will allow for the establishment of a cohort of children who will be monitored in a micronutrient supplementation trial using sprinkles.
