Active clinical trials for "Whooping Cough"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the AFIX-OB model to determine its impact on the change in flu and pertussis (Tdap) uptake, provider knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, and patient knowledge, attitudes and beliefs regarding maternal vaccination. The structure of the model and quality improvement interventions are guided by theory including the elaboration likelihood model and P3 model. These quality improvement measures will be implemented in OB clinics within the Yale New Haven Health System.

A three-arm, multi-site clinical evaluation of the ARIES Bordetella Assay for the detection and identification of Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) and Bordetella parapertussis (B. parapertussis) nucleic acids in prospectively collected, de-identified, left-over clinical specimens; banked, pre-selected clinical specimens; and contrived specimens.

The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' (formerly, SmithKline Beecham Biologicals) reduced-antigen-content acellular pertussis vaccine and reduced-antigen-content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine in comparison with Tedivax-Adult™/ Td-Rix™

The present study is designed to meet the requirements of the Taiwanese Health Authorities for registration of ADACEL POLIO in Taiwan. Subjects will receive one dose of the study vaccine at 6 to 8 years of age. Blood samples will be taken for antibody titration. The expected total duration of follow-up for each subject will be 28 days.

Recruitment of individuals primed during childhood with TdaP (tetanus, diphtheria , acellular pertussis) vaccine, and administration of an Adacel booster with blood sample collection at various time points before and after vaccination. Collection of blood sample volumes will be large enough to allow assessment and comparison of multiple assays that evaluate cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses and other biomarkers following the administration of pertussis vaccinations. The ultimate objective would be to utilize these validated assays for evaluation of pertussis clinical trial results or development of new pertussis vaccine formulations.

This is a multicenter extension study of two European randomized, double-blind studies (V419-007 and V419-008). It describes long-term persistence of hepatitis B and pertussis antibody responses in healthy 4- to 5 year old children previously vaccinated with Vaxelis® or INFANRIX® hexa

The purpose of this study is to estimate the effectiveness of maternal immunization with Boostrix at preventing pertussis in infants in the United States.

The study should be leaded as a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled comparative research of potency and safety of a GamLPV, a live intranasal Bordetella pertussis vaccine, using two dosing schedules and methods of application in healthy human volunteers. The study contains three periods: screening, inpatient hospitalization and follow-up.

The study objective is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of DTaP-IPV combination vaccine administered as a boosting dose to healthy 4 to 6-year-old children who received three doses of primary immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and polio.

The purpose of this study is to collect safety information from pre-adolescents, adolescents and adults after Boostrix vaccination is administered according to the approved prescribing information in Korea.
