Active clinical trials for "Virus Diseases"

The objective of this study is to prevent reactivation of herpes zoster during the first year after transplant.

Audit and Feedback (A&F), a strategy aimed at promoting modified practice through performance feedback, is a method to change provider behaviour and reduce unnecessary medical services. This study aims to assess the use of A&F to change: antibiotic prescribing for viral infections antipsychotic prescribing to patients with dementia routine measure of vitamin D in low risk adults annual screening blood tests (without direct indication by the risk profile of the patient)

The purpose of this study is to assess the serologic and cell-mediated immune response to licensed live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) and inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV) in children 5-17 years old. The effects of prior infection and or prior season vaccination will be examined. Children will be followed during the influenza season to identify laboratory-confirmed influenza (i.e. vaccine failure).

This primary goal of this study is to assess whether patient whose parents watch a standardized digital video using the integrated digital approach during a routine office visit are more likely to accept a dose of HPV vaccine (1st, 2nd, or 3rd dose) compared to those not completing the program. The study team anticipates eligible patients in the intervention clinics to have higher rates of HPV vaccine acceptance (1st, 2nd, or 3rd doses) than patients in the usual care comparison clinics. Additionally, the study team is interested in determining the impact of the integrated system on clinical workflow by measuring the number of minutes of each patient office visit when using the system compared to the number of minutes of each visit in offices where the system is not used. Although this is a descriptive/exploratory aim, our expectation is that the THEO system will have minimal impact on patient flow.

This study is related to a previous study, Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02924467. There are some modifications in relation to the intervention arms as well as the use of a different cohort, thereby justifying the second submission to Clinicaltrials.gov. This trial is taking place in New York State, through partnership with the New York State Health Department (excluding New York City), and Colorado. Each state will have it's own Clinicaltrial.gov submission -- this was decided as some of the intervention components are different enough that separate registrations were warranted. Despite U.S. guidelines for influenza vaccination of all children starting at 6 months, only about half of children are vaccinated annually leading to substantial influenza disease in children and spread of disease to adults. A major barrier is that families are not reminded about the need for their children to receive influenza vaccination. The investigators will evaluate the impact of patient reminder/recall (R/R) performed by state immunization information systems to improve influenza vaccination rates by using 4 clinical trials (2 per state) in two different states. The investigators will assess effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of 1) autodialer R/R 2) text messages R/R 3) mailed postcard R/R as compared to 4) standard of care control (no R/R).

In this pilot trial, 150 confirmed COVID-19 individuals will be randomly assigned to 1 of 5 groups: distilled water, CloSYS Ultra Sensitive Rinse (Rowpar Pharmaceutical Inc., USA), Oral-B Mouth Sore (Oral-B, USA), Crest Pro-Health Multi-Protection (Crest, USA), or Listerine Zero (Johnson and Johnson, USA). Study participants will be asked to rinse/gargle with 10-20ml (according to the rinse instructions) of the assigned solutions 4 times per day, for 30-60 seconds, for 4 weeks.

A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Dose Ranging Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antiviral Activity of GS-6620 in Treatment Naïve Subjects with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection.

IL-6 is an inflammatory marker, secrete by the cells in many pathological conditions like COVID-19 pneumonia. Interleukin 6 bind with its receptors (IL-6R) on cells surface and recruited a protein for its activation known as gp-130. Activated receptors send signals to nucleus through secondary messenger system and up regulate the expression of IL-6/GP130 domain. Total of two hundred (n=200) participants were included in the current study and divided equally in four groups. Group B is given Tocilizumab and Group C is treated with Remdesivir along with the approved standard treatment. Group D is only Given standard therapy and Group A constituted normal healthy age and sexed matched participants. Levels of gp-130 were estimated by commercially available ELISA kit. To estimate the relationship of severity of disease with gp-130 and IL-6 Pearson's correlations was used. Sensitivity and specificity for what purpose

Comparative study of the pharmacokinetics of XC8, film-coated tablets, 10 mg and XC8, film-coated tablets, 40 mg, when administered once in equal doses (40 mg) on an empty stomach in healthy volunteers.

This is a two-arm, randomized, open label, monocenter, controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Viusid plus Asbrip in patients with mild and moderate symptoms of respiratory illness caused by Coronavirus 2019 infection.
