Active clinical trials for "Virus Diseases"

A phase I/II trial conducted in a single centre, observer-blind, randomized, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a single intramuscular injection of plant-based Seasonal Quadrivalent VLP Influenza Vaccine administered to healthy adults 18-49 years of age. A total of one hundred and twenty (120) subjects will be randomized in four (4) groups of 30 subjects to receive one injection of either a low, a medium, or a high dose level of VLP of the quadrivalent VLP influenza vaccine or the placebo preparation (100 millimolar (mM) phosphate buffer + 150 mM sodium chloride (NaCl) + 0.01% Tween 80).

To evaluate safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of palivizumab in children at the age of 24 months or less with immunocompromised medical conditions.

This study will test two new vaccines, one for Ebola and one for Marburg virus, to see if they are safe, if they have side effects, and if they create an immune response in people who receive them.

UMN-0501 is a purified recombinant influenza HA vaccine (A H5N1/Vietnam/1203/2004). The purpose of the present study is to evaluate immunogenicity, safety and optimal dose among three different doses of UMN-0501 following two same-dose vaccinations of UMN-0501 per patient with a 3 week interval between vaccination in healthy young adults. Immunogenicity will be confirmed by both microneutralization (MN) antibody and hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer levels in the serums of subjects after receiving different doses of UMN-0501. There will be three dose groups with 30 subjects per group for a total of 90 healthy young adults aged 20-40 years enrolled in this study.

The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of two consecutive doses of plant-based H5 VLP, (H5N1) pandemic influenza vaccine combined with Alhydrogel®, given 21 days apart, at three dose levels: 5µg, 10µg and 20µg., compared to the placebo, and combined with Alhydrogel®.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of 3 formulations of the HR5I vaccine (Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate, recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen, diphtheria, tetanus, 5-component acellular pertussis, and inactivated poliovirus Types 1, 2, and 3). The primary hypothesis is that at least 1 of the 3 formulations of HR5I administered as a primary series at 2, 4, and 6 months of age will be acceptable (similar to targeted rates) with respect to Postdose 3 antibody responses to all antigens.

Human Parainfluenza Virus Type 1 (HPIV1) is a leading cause of viral respiratory infections in children, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems. HPIV1 is also the leading cause of viral croup in children under 6 years old. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of and immune response to a HPIV1 vaccine, rHPIVI1 84/del170/942A, in 2 groups of adults and then in children who have been previously exposed to HPIV1. Once the safety of this vaccine has been established in these groups, an additional 2 groups of infants and children who have not been previously exposed to HPIV1 will be vaccinated. Naïve infants and children are the most vulnerable to naturally circulating HPIV1 and are the target population of this vaccine.

The primary objective is to assess the immunogenicity and safety and tolerability of two consecutive doses of H5 VLP Influenza vaccine given 21 days apart, at three dose levels: in part A: 20 µg, 30 µg and 45 µg combined with Alhydrogel® 1%, or 45 µg without Alhydrogel®, compared to the placebo, (100mM phosphate buffer + 150mM NaCl + 0.01% Tween 80).

This is a study to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V419 (PR5I) when administered as an infant series at 2, 4, and 6 months of age followed by a toddler dose of DAPTACEL™, Prevnar 13™ and PedvaxHIB™ at 15 months of age. The study will determine whether subjects who receive V419 have a similar immune response to the vaccine compared to subjects who receive licensed component vaccine controls.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drug entecavir will prevent the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in participants who receive an orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) due to HBV infection.
