Active clinical trials for "Virus Diseases"

Title Reaching out to the UNdiagnosed people infected with blood-borne viral infections (RUNtoBBV) Objectives 1. To study the efficacy of an outreach methodology to increase the uptake for screening, linkage to care and treatment in (active or former) people who use drugs (PWUD) Trial design Prospective multicenter interventional cohort design Number of subjects 336 inclusions (with prevalence of HCV Ab: 30%) 168 Antwerp 168 Limburg Selection criteria Inclusion criteria: 18 years of age History of/ or active drug use Written informed consent obtained Exclusion criteria Currently enrolled in centralized OST program of Free Clinic or CAD Limburg Endpoints The following endpoints will be compared between the centers in Limburg and Antwerp: (Main outcome in bold) Main objectives: Prevalence of blood-borne viral infections in Belgian (former or active) PWUD: HCV infection (number of HCV Ab+ / number of screened PWUD) HBV infection (number of HBsAg+/number of screened PWUD) HIV infection (number of HIV Ab+/number of screened PWUD) Analysis of linkage to care to hepatologist/ infectiologist (number of patients who adhered to their consultation/number of referred patients) Secondary objectives: Analysis of risk behavior/sociodemographics linked to presence of BBV infections Analysis of uptake of anti(retro)viral treatment (number of patients started on treatment/number of patients needing treatment) Analysis of treatment adherence (adherence to treatment consultations/total planned consultations) Analysis of treatment outcome (total number of cured or virally suppressed patients/total number of treated patients)

Based on findings of the interim analysis of the ACTIVATE study showing 53% decrease of the incidence of all new infections with BCG vaccination, a new trial is designed aiming to validate if BCG can protect against COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease-19).The aim of the study is to demonstrate in a double-blind, placebo-controlled approach if vaccination of participants susceptible to COVID-19 with BCG vaccine may modulate their disease susceptibility for COVID-19. This will be validated using both clinical and immunological criteria. At the same time, a sub-study will be conducted and the mechanism of benefit from BCG vaccination by assessing its effect on vascular endothelial function and mononuclear blood cells will be studied

Study to assess the efficacy and safety of a multiple dose regimen and a single dose regimen of intranasal Neumifil, administered prior to challenge with Influenza virus in healthy adult participants

Open label clinical trial of persons (adults) that will determine the safety and efficacy of the diet supplement oral mitoquinone/mitoquinol mesylate (Mito-MES) to prevent the development and progression of severe viral infections like COVID-19 after high-risk exposure to a person with possible respiratory viral infection such as SARS-CoV-2 infection in persons who will receive Mito-MES compared to persons who will not receive Mito-MES (controls).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate immunogenicity, epidemiological efficacy and safety of medicinal product GamEvac-Combi - Combined Vector-Based Vaccine against Ebola Virus Disease, 0.5 ml+0.5 ml/dose

Aim of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of Echinaforce Junior Tablets (250mg) in comparison with Vitamin C tablets in the prevention of acute viral respiratory tract infections.

This was a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of VRC-ZKADNA090-00-VP (Zika virus wildtype DNA vaccine) or placebo. In Part A, the primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the vaccine in different vaccination regimens. In Part B, the primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the vaccine compared to placebo.

Interventional, single arm, open-label, non-randomized, phase IIIb study to accumulate additional data on safety and effectiveness of one dose of rVSVΔG-ZEBOV-GP against Ebola virus disease.

Since its first outbreak occurred in 1976, Zaire Ebola virus have been associated with 14 outbreaks reported up to 2014. The Zaire Ebola virus in 2014 causing the most serious outbreak was considered to be a new epidemic strain, with GP homology of the gene was only 97.6%, compared to the GP gene of the strain in 1976. This investigational Ad5-EBOV vaccine was developed according to the 2014 epidemic Zaire strain and formulated as freeze-dry products which could be stored at 4℃. This is a single center, double-blind, placebo control, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial. This study will determine the safety and side-effect profile, and immunogenicity of an investigational Ad5-EBOV vaccine.

Ebola virus causes an infection known as Ebola virus disease (EVD). This it is generally a severe disease which can also lead to death. The 2014 outbreak of EVD in West Africa is the largest ever. Researchers want to develop a vaccine to prevent Ebola infection. This study will assess the safety of a single dose of the bivalent Ebola Zaire candidate vaccine VRC-EBOADC069-00-VP (cAD3-EBO) when administered to healthy Malian adult volunteers, age 18-65 years (mostly health care workers and other front line workers [e.g., individuals who incinerate contaminated materials]), at one of 2 dosage levels, 2.0 x 10(10) vp or 2 x 10(11) vp. It is impossible for someone to get an Ebola infection from this vaccine. Heterologous booster dose allocation - Each participant will be offered the opportunity to be included in the booster step of this study. After obtaining consent and the additional review of pertinent medical history, participants in each group will be randomized to receive the candidate booster vaccine, MVA-EbolaZ or placebo. This will be the first clinical trial in Mali with bivalent cAd3-based Ebola vaccine and the first where the dosage level contains > 10(11) vp. It follows completion of a Phase Ib trial in Malian health care workers that tested three dosage levels of monovalent cAd3-EBO Z vaccine. The data generated in West Africans (Mali) on the tolerability and immunogenicity of the bivalent vaccine will be compared to clinical and immunologic responses documented in in parallel studies in East African subjects (Uganda) and North American subjects (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA). Objectives: To see if an Ebola vaccine is safe and to study immune responses to it. To study the effect of the MVA-EbolaZ booster on the immune response Eligibility: - Healthy adults ages 18-65.
