Active clinical trials for "Influenza, Human"

To reach seasonal vaccination against influenza targets, University Hospitals Birmingham (UHB) already invites staff to take up the vaccination, and every November reminds staff that have not yet vaccinated to do so. The current protocol describes a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which staff will be sent different reminders, and the investigators will compare the proportion of staff that go on to vaccinate after receiving each reminder.

Primary Objective: To provide serum samples (collected from participants before vaccination [Blood Sample 1] and after final vaccination [Blood Sample 2]) to Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) for further analysis by the World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support formulation recommendations for subsequent influenza vaccines. In addition, serum samples from adult participants may be further analyzed by the Sponsor to assess breadth of immune response induced by the study vaccines.

This a sub-study of a 5-year study designed to investigate how antibody and T cell responses following influenza vaccine compare among lung transplant patients, patients waiting for lung transplantation, and healthy individuals. This trial is designed to investigate the hypothesis that there is no difference in T Cell response to the influenza vaccine between lung transplant patients and healthy controls.

The primary objective of the study is to estimate the reporting rate of suspected Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) occurring within 7 days following routine vaccination with VaxigripTetra® and Efluelda®, respectively, during the Northern Hemisphere (NH) influenza season 2021/22. The secondary objectives of the study are: To estimate the reporting rates of suspected ADRs occurring within 7 days following routine vaccination with VaxigripTetra® according to the pre-defined age groups. To estimate the reporting rates of serious suspected ADRs after vaccination with VaxigripTetra®, and Efluelda®, respectively, at any time following vaccination, within the Enhanced Passive Safety Surveillance (EPSS) period. To compare vaccinees' reporting rates of suspected ADRs observed during the NH influenza season 2021/22.

This study evaluates the statistics of influenza and acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) management in outpatient sites in Russia, Armenia, Moldova and Georgia (epidemiology: disease severity and bacterial exacerbations; patients demography; treatment duration and timelines; safety; quality of treatment) in routine clinical practice with focus on drug therapy and usage of interferons' inducers.

Rationale and background: Since 2013, IB has been performing passive pharmacovigilance activities related to TIV. Objetive: To implement an active surveillance study as part of our pharmacovigilance plan while passive surveillance activities will continue. Pharmacovigilance data on TIV, via active surveillance, is being implemented in response to WHO requirements for pre-qualification of TIV. Study Design: This is a prospective cohort study. Population: Target groups for vaccination defined by The National Immunization Program of Brazil: children between six months and five years old; pregnant women; postpartum women (mothers until 45 days after birth); healthcare workers; and elderly (people over 60 years old). Study Size: A total of 900 individuals (300 health care workers, 300 elderly, 100 pregnant women, 100 post-partum women and 100 children between six months and five years old), presenting for immunization with IB TIV, and who agree to participate after providing Informed Consent. Data Analyses: Descriptive approaches will be used to meet the defined objectives described in the protocol, as well as formal statistical tests when appropriate.

This study evaluates how different methods of early exposure to influenza (natural infection, live attenuated influenza vaccination, inactivated influenza vaccination) initially stimulate immunity and poise the immune system to respond to a future challenge with the inactivated influenza vaccine.

Children whose parents receive text reminders are more likely to be consented to participate in the school located influenza vaccination clinic than children whose parents do not receive text reminders.

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Active-controlled, Parallel, Non-inferiority, Phase III Study.

This study will serve to determine how influenza infection alters the bacterial colonization patterns in the nasal and oropharyngeal compartments, and whether the immune response correlate with these alterations. The investigators will be determining bacterial composition and immune responses in the nose and oropharynx during influenza infection. Specific Aims Therefore, the overall aims of this study are as follows: To identify baseline composition and kinetic changes in the nasal and oropharyngeal microflora and immune responses after administering intranasal live attenuated influenza virus (i.e., FluMist® vaccine) or saline mist to healthy subjects; To identify nasal and oropharyngeal microbial composition and local immune responses during influenza infections and after resolution of infection, and correlate these changes with clinical outcomes.
