Active clinical trials for "Rabies"

The purpose of this single-centre, randomized, double-blind, parallel control, phase 3 study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a rabies vaccine (Vero Cell) for human use in healthy Chinese subjects aged 10-60 years, according to the Essen methods (1-1-1-1-1) vaccination.

Establish non-inferiority of the immune response and evaluate the safety and tolerability of Rabies and Japanese Encephalitis (JE) vaccines given concomitantly or alone and according to either of 2 schedules for preexposure prophylaxis.

The aim of the study is to document the safety and immunogenicity of Purified Vero Rabies Vaccine (VRVg) when given in a simulated post-exposure regimen, i.e. with co-administration of human rabies immunoglobulins (Imovax® Rabies). Primary Objectives: To demonstrate that VRVg is non-inferior to Imovax® Rabies in terms of proportion of subjects achieving a rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) titer ≥ 0.5 international units (IU)/mL at Day 14. To demonstrate that the observed proportion of subjects achieving an RVNA titer ≥ 0.5 IU/mL at Day 14 is at least 99%, with a lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of at least 97%. Secondary Objectives: To assess the clinical safety of each vaccine after each vaccine injection when administered in a simulated post-exposure schedule. To describe the geometric mean titer ratio (GMTR) between the 2 vaccine groups at Day 14.

This study compares the safety and immunogenicity profile of several travel vaccines given alone or concomitantly with MenACWY-CRM to healthy adults.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of IM administered CV8102 and an IM administered combination of CV8102 and rabies vaccine in humans.

Evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of rabies vaccine given in a post-exposure prophylaxis regimen to healthy children and adults aged 10-60 years.

The purpose of this first time-in-human (FTiH) study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of different dose levels of an experimental rabies glycoprotein G (RG) vaccine (RG-SAM [CNE] vaccine), made using a new technology, when administered intramuscularly (IM) on a 0, 2, 6 *-month schedule to healthy adults. * There will be no vaccinations with the third dose of any of the study treatments.

Primary Objective: To describe the immune response induced by VRVg-2 and Verorab vaccines at D14 and D35 when co-administered with Human Rabies Immunoglobulins (HRIG) at D0, according to the Zagreb (2-1-1) IM regimen in healthy adult subjects. Secondary Objective: Immunogenicity To describe the immune response induced by VRVg-2 and Verorab vaccines at D90 when co-administered with HRIG at D0, according to the Zagreb (2-1-1) IM regimen in healthy adult subjects. Safety To describe the safety profile of VRVg-2 and Verorab vaccines when co administered with HRIG at D0, after each vaccination.

Rabies is a viral zoonosis that causes an encephalitis, almost invariably fatal. It is widely distributed across the globe: the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that about 2,4 billion people live in endemic areas for canine rabies. Vaccination of domestic animals is limited to industrialized and middle-income countries. The development of clinical rabies can be prevented through timely immunization after exposure: however, preventive vaccination simplifies the post-exposure procedure considerably, as immunoglobulins are no longer needed and less vaccine administrations are scheduled. Pre-exposure prophylaxis consists of an intramuscular (IM)of intradermal (ID) dose given on days 0, 7 and 21 or 28. The development of immunological memory after this vaccination is critical for the establishment of long lasting immunity. Subjects receiving a booster dose 1 year after pre-exposure prophylaxis segregate themselves into 'good' and 'poor' responders; the former may not need further boosters for 10 years, whereas the latter may need more frequent boosters. Until recently, guidelines in travel medicine recommended pre-exposure vaccination only for some risk groups. Since recent studies have shown the effectiveness of the ID vaccination, the policies are changing towards pre-exposure vaccination for a larger population, including travelers to endemic regions, where immunoglobulins and vaccine are often not readily available. Based on the above, the investigators must stress the concept of "boostability" after a risk exposure. However, the current pre-exposure vaccination scheme could be improved: a schedule of 1 week would be less time consuming, would improve compliance and give less interference with other prophylaxis measures, e.g. mefloquine. Two small studies suggest that a schedule of 1 week interval is as effective and immunogenic as the standard one. The investigators will investigate whether the accelerated schedule is as effective as the classical schedule, by carrying out a randomized, non-inferiority study.

Background. The World Health Organization recommends pre-exposure vaccination (PreP) to protect children living in canine rabies endemic countries. Including PreP in national childhood immunization programs (EPI) is a viable option. Methods. In an open-label phase II clinical trial, 200 healthy toddlers were randomized to receive Purified Chick Embryo Cell Vaccine (PCECV) in a 3-dose Full-IM (1mL), Half-IM (0.5mL), 3-ID (0.1mL), or a 2-dose 2-ID (0.1mL) regimen, all in combination with two doses of Japanese Encephalitis (JEV), or JEV alone. One booster dose of PCECV (IM or ID) and JEV, or JEV alone was administered concomitantly one year after primary vaccination. Safety was evaluated after each injection. Blood was drawn on days 0 and 49, one year later prior to booster and on days 7 and 28 post-booster, and at two and three years post primary vaccination. All sera were analyzed for rabies and JE virus neutralizing antibodies (RVNA, JEVNA).
