Active clinical trials for "Coronavirus Infections"

NAPKON-HAP is the deep phenotyping platform of the National Pandemic Cohort Network (NAPKON) in Germany. NAPKON is a data and biospecimen collection of patients with COVID-19 and is part of the University Medicine Network (NUM) in Germany. The primary objective of the study is to provide a comprehensive collection of data and biosamples for researchers from national consortia and for participation in international research collaborations for studying COVID-19 and future pandemics. Data is collected from patients with COVID-19 three times per week during their hospitalization and at follow-up visits after hospital discharge 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after symptom onset. Data include epidemiological and demographic parameters, medical history and potential risk factors, documentation of routine medical procedures, and clinical course, including different patterns of organ involvement, quality of care, morbidity, and quality of life. Moreover, extensive serial high-quality bio sampling consisting of various sample types is performed to allow deep molecular, immunological, and virological phenotyping. Patients not requiring Intensive Care Unit (ICU)/ Intermediate Care (IMC) treatment will receive 7 and patients requiring ICU/IMC treatment will receive 16 full-phenotyping visits including sampling for biobanking. During hospitalisation the planned blood sampling rate in total is 35 ml at each visit. The total amounts and/or sampling dates may differ according to the ethics committee's regulations for different study centers. At follow-up visits, the clinical assessment includes an update of the medical history and recent medical events from which additional clinical data is collected (i.e. outpatient CT-scans, echocardiography, external laboratory data). Clinical symptoms are recorded and a physical examination will be performed. Vital signs are recorded and routine blood testing and biosampling is continued. Quality of life is measured with patient-reported outcome questionnaires. Follow-up visits at months 3 and 12 are "deep phenotyping" visits with a comprehensive and detailed set of examinations. In the following visits at months 24 and 36, only examinations with pathologic results from the last deep phenotyping visit at month 12 will be performed. A shorter follow-up visit to record quality of life, recent medical events and with a reduced number of examinations focusing on cardiorespiratory performance will take place at month 6. In case of relevant medical events, new medical information or changes in the participant´s health status, an unscheduled visit can take place anytime within the entire study period. Data collection during follow up includes standardized quality of life assessment including PROMIS® (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System). The pulmonary characterization will include body plethysmography, diffusion capacity, respiratory muscles strength measurement, spiroergometry, capillary blood gas analysis and lung imaging studies (low-dose Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the lung). Cardiological phenotyping includes echocardiography, electrocardiogram (ECG), 24h-ECG, 24h-blood pressure monitoring, stress cardiac MRI and pulse wave analysis. Neurocognitive testing includes brain MRI, electroencephalogram (EEG), somatosensory testing, refractometry (Visit 3 and 12 months), physical activity test, neurocognitive tests, somatosensory phenotyping, taste- and smell-test. Endocrinological phenotyping will incorporate Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGE) reader, continuous glucose monitoring for 14 days, Air Displacement Plethysmography (ADP) or bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).

VBI-2901a is an investigational vaccine candidate that uses enveloped virus-like particles (eVLPs) to express the spike proteins of three coronaviruses: SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19 disease), SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV. The trivalent vaccine candidate is designed to induce neutralizing antibody and cell-mediated immune responses against the spike protein of the original strain of SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-2 variants (such as Beta, Delta and Omicron) and other related coronaviruses that could emerge in the future. The Phase 1 study will be an open-label comparison of two intramuscular doses of VBI-2901a at 5 µg or 10 µg per dose or one dose of VBI-2901a at 10 µg per dose in adults 18 to 64 years of age who had previously received two or more vaccinations with licensed COVID-19 vaccines. The purpose of the study is to test the safety of VBI-2901a and to know more about its ability to boost immune response against SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19 disease) and two other related coronaviruses SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV.

Background: Influenza and coronavirus have been repeatedly causing pandemic recently. Like the Influenza A/H7N9 virus has caused five epidemics in China since its first detection in East China in 2013. In 2017, the previously low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) H7N9 virus underwent mutation in its haemagglutinin to give to a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus causing 32 human cases and potentially poses a threat to animal and human health. More recently, the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has been heavily affecting the world. Therefore an effective risk assessment platform is urgently required for better pandemic preparation. Hypothesis: The tissue tropism and pathogenesis of a newly emerged infectious viruses, like the highlypathogenic influenza, like H7N9 and coronavirus, like SARS-CoV-2 would be different from that of their low pathogenic subtype and it would infect and replicate the human respiratory system more efficiently. Because of its resistance to oseltamivir for influenza and no effective antiviral for coronavirus, investigators therefore propose to set up an novel and effective risk assessment platform for emerging infectious viruses. Experimental Design: The tissue tropism and viral replication kinetics of a HPAI and LP influenza and coronavirus will be determined in ex vivo cultures of human brain and compared with their LP subtype. The replication competence and innate immune responses of influenza and coronavirus will be studied and compared with other LP virus in in vitro cultures of human brain cells and human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC) both isolated from human brain tissues. Expected outcomes: HPAI influenza and coronavirus particularly SARS-CoV-2 will infect and replicate the human brain tissues and cells more efficiently than their LP subtype. Besides, HPAI influenza and SARS-CoV-2 will induce dysregulated host innate immune response than the LP subtype.

If your serious vaccine-induced adverse event has been entered in the CDC Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) we are interested in enrolling you for this study in order to log your symptoms. The primary goal of this study is to create a national database and gather vaccine-associated serious adverse events/injury data from newly vaccinated individuals in the US in order to identify the possible underlying causal relationships and plausible underlying biological mechanisms. The project aims to identify the genetic determinants of vaccine-induced adverse response by studying host genetics. We plan to use whole genome sequencing to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal and immunological symptoms induced by vaccine administration. The secondary goal is to establish criteria that enable classification of vaccine-induced adverse events/injuries compare data from our database with the official Vaccine Injury Table National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program on or after March 21, 2017. The tertiary goal is to establish a database to gather detailed long-term adverse reaction data from subjects enrolled in FDA Emergency Use Authorized vaccine clinical trials.

The purpose of this study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a 2-dose regimen of 9vHPV vaccine, where the first dose is administered concomitantly with a first dose of a 2-dose regimen of mRNA-1273 vaccine versus nonconcomitant administration of 9vHPV and mRNA-1273 vaccines in boys and girls 9 to 11 years of age.

All the pregnant women and newborns of both or one of the couples who gave birth in Ditan hospital were collected as the observation group, and the pregnant women and newborns of both husband and wife who gave birth in our hospital without new crown vaccine during pregnancy were collected as the control group. The incidence of adverse events during pregnancy of the two groups and the incidence of intrauterine development and congenital malformations of the two groups were observed to observe the physical and intellectual development of children in the two groups at the age of 1 year, and to explore the safety of perinatal neocrown vaccination.

This study aims to employ a simple finger-prick home test to detect post vaccination antibody levels. The investigators will compare antibody responses in patients with severe asthma on varying treatment regimes (biologics, daily steroids, inhalers-only) with healthy, age-matched controls to study if the magnitude and range of responses vary between severe asthmatics and healthy individuals.
