Active clinical trials for "Virus Diseases"

It is known that the pretreatment with exogenous interferon blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection, but intervention is much more effective if administered prior to infection. In this study the primary aim is to investigate 28-day regime of nasal interferon gama use in healthy participants for COVID-19 and other respiratory infections prevention.

This is an open label study to evaluate the safety and immune response to a booster dose of Ad26.ZEBOV Ebola vaccine in HIV+ adults from Kenya and Uganda. Only participants who have received the 2-dose Ebola vaccine regimen "Ad26.ZEBOV/MVA-BN-Filo " in the VAC52150EBL2002 vaccine trial about 4 years ago are eligible to take part. Approximately 50 healthy HIV+ adults, aged 18 - 50 years at the time of the parent trial, will be invited. Participants will first be asked to provide consent to participate in this study. Upon receiving the booster vaccination, participants will be followed up for approximately 28 days (+/- 3 days) to collect information on side effects and provide blood samples for antibody measurement. This study is designed to provide descriptive information regarding vaccine safety and immunogenicity. There is no formal treatment comparisons and no formal testing of statistical hypothesis.

This is a randomized controlled trial to test a combination behavioral and biomedical interventions to improve the HIV prevention and care cascades in a population of mobile men in a high priority setting (fishermen in Kenya). The intervention strategy is to recruit and train highly socially-connected men to distribute HIV self-tests and provide linkage support to men in their close social networks. The study will determine whether this social network-based approach along with small financial incentives in the form of transport vouchers can increase men's self-testing, linkage to and uptake of ART and PrEP after self-testing, virologic suppression at 6 months (for those initiating ART) and PrEP adherence (for those initiating PrEP) at 6 months. The study includes a longitudinal qualitative and mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative assessments) to identify the pathways of intervention action, and understand how the social network-based approach with support for linkage affects testing and ART and PrEP uptake and retention in men.

This was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, multicenter Phase 3 clinical study investigating three Lots of VLA1553 at the final dose. Overall 409 healthy subjects aged 18 to 45 years were randomized into the study.

A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a new inactivated EV71 vaccine developed by Sinovac Biotech CO., LTD.

This study will determine whether participants who receive V419 (PR5I) at 2, 4, and 11 to 12 months of age have an acceptable response to the vaccine. This study will also determine whether the immune response to V419 is similar to that of participants who received a licensed vaccine control. The primary hypothesis is that participants who receive PR5I at 2, 4, and 11 to 12 months have an acceptable response rate to all PR5I-contained antigens at one month after the Toddler dose of PR5I.

The primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of split- virion inactivated H1N1 vaccine with and without adjuvant when administered at the 7.5,15 or 30 mcg dose. The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following each dose of split- virion inactivated A(H1N1) vaccine with and without adjuvant. Participants will include up to 2200 healthy persons age 3 and older who have no history of novel influenza H1N1 2009 infection or novel influenza H1N1 2009 vaccination. This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase II study in healthy males and non-pregnant females, aged 3 years and older. Subjects will be stratified by elders (equal to or more than 61 years), adults (18-60 years), adolescents (12-17 years) and children (3-11 years), elders and adolescents will be randomized into 5 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5,15 or 30 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose), children will be randomized into 4 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5 or 15 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose), adults will be randomized into 6 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5,15 or 30 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose or placebo), 110 subjects per dose and age stratum will be to receive intramuscular influenza H1N1 vaccine. The H1N1 vaccine will be administered at Day 0 and Day 21. Following immunization, safety will be measured by assessment of adverse events through 21 days following the last vaccination (Day 42 for those receiving both doses), serious adverse events and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 6 months post the final vaccination (Day 180 after second vaccination), and reactogenicity to the vaccine for 8 days (Day 0-7) following each vaccination. Immunogenicity testing will be hemagglutination inhibiting (HAI) on serum obtained on the day 21 of each vaccination (prior to vaccination), on Day 21 after first vaccination, and 21 days following the second vaccination (Day 42).

This is a Phase 3, blinded, randomized study of SYN023 compared to a China licensed Human Rabies Immunoglobulin (a Rabies immune globulin from human sources, HRIG) for the prevention of rabies as part of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). The trial will enroll the World Health Organization (WHO) Category III rabies exposure subjects. The subject's death and rabies data will be reviewed by Data and safety monitoring board (DSMB) to confirm the safety. Besides, rabies vaccine would be administered after Study Drug in each group. This trial is proposed to further the licensure of SYN023 to provide an effective PEP alternative available to those exposed persons who need such a product. A placebo-controlled rabies trial is unethical thus HRIG is selected as the control group. Rabies immune globulin from equine and human sources (HRIG) have been evaluated in many trials and HRIG is the standard of care in China.

Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of PRV-101, a coxsackie virus B vaccine, in healthy volunteers.

This study will test the filtration, air leak, and breathability of a newly designed fully washable mask developed by Dr. Nordell with the Mayo Clinic. This mask is theorized to be a superior alternative to other respirators currently used when one-time-use N95 masks are unavailable.
