Active clinical trials for "Virus Diseases"

This was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, multicenter, pivotal clinical study evaluating the final dose of VLA1553 (1 x10E4 TCID50 per dose) in comparison to a placebo control. The final dose of VLA1553 or control was administered as single immunization on Day 1. Overall, 4.128 male and female subjects aged 18 years and above were randomized into the study.

Recent information appearing from different countries suggest that treatment of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with hydroxychloroquine or with a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin has either an indifferent effect on viral replication or substantial cardiotoxicity. This is a clinical trial aiming to prove that addition of oral clarithromycin to treatment regimen of COVID-19 is associated with early clinical improvement and attenuation of the high inflammatory burden of the host. The study will not comprise a placebo-comparator group since this is considered inappropriate in an era of a pandemic with substantial global mortality.

Prophylactic treatment in cancer patients undergoing antineoplastic therapy during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is a Phase 2, randomized, multi-center study in approximately 300 adults who received 2 doses of aH5N1c or placebo in and completed the parent study V89_18 in the <65 years of age cohort. The study investigates whether two priming doses of MF59-adjuvanted H5N1 cell culture-derived vaccine (aH5N1c) followed by one or two booster vaccinations with a MF59-adjuvanted H5N6 cell culture derived vaccine (aH5N6c) 3 weeks apart elicit immune responses to the antigens used for priming (H5N1) and boosting (H5N6) after first and second heterologous booster vaccination. Eligible subjects, who received 2 doses of aH5N1c in the parent study V89_18 are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either two aH5N6c vaccinations, 3 weeks apart (group 1) or an aH5N6c vaccination on Day 1 and saline placebo on Day 22 (group 2). Eligible subjects, who received placebo in the parent study will receive two aH5N6c vaccinations, 3 weeks apart (group 3). After the second vaccine administration, subjects are monitored for approximately 6 months for safety and antibody persistence. The total study duration will be approximately 7 months per subject.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and anti-retroviral activity of MK-8510 monotherapy in anti-retroviral-naïve HIV-1 infected participants.

This is a multicentre, randomized, observer-blind, active-controlled, superiority, study in adults to compare the immunogenicity of VLA2001 to AZD1222 in terms of GMT of SARS-CoV-2-specific neutralising antibodies. Furthermore, VLA2001 will be compared to placebo in an adolescent population.

The safety and immunogenicity of high dose influenza vaccine has not been studied in young patients receiving chemotherapy. This study will evaluate and compare the immunogenicity and safety of high dose influenza to standard dose influenza vaccine in adult oncology patients who are younger than 65 years old receiving chemotherapy.

Patients enrolled on this study will have received a stem cell transplant. After a transplant, while the immune system grows back the patient is at risk for infection. Some viruses can stay in the body for life, and if the immune system is weakened (like after a transplant), they can cause life-threatening infections. BK virus (BKV) is a virus that can cause serious life-threatening infections in patients who have weak immune systems. It affects the urinary tract, and can cause frequent urination, blood in the urine, and severe pain. Investigators want to see if they can use a kind of white blood cell called T cells to treat BKV infections that occur after a transplant. Investigators have observed in other studies that treatment with specially trained T cells has been successful when the cells are made from the transplant donor. However as it takes 1-2 months to make the cells, that approach is not practical when a patient already has an infection. Investigators have now generated BKV-specific T cells from the blood of healthy donors and created a bank of these cells. Investigators have previously successfully used frozen virus-specific T cell lines generated from healthy donors to treat virus infections after bone marrow transplant, and have now improved the production method and customized the bank of lines to specifically and exclusively target BKV. In this study, investigators want to find out if the banked BKV-specific T cells derived from healthy donors are safe and can help to treat BK virus infection. The BKV-specific T cells (Viralym-B) are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a single center, open, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial. This study will determine the safety and side-effect profile, and immunogenicity of an investigational Ad5-EBOV vaccine in Healthy Adult Africans aged between 18-60 years in China.

This trial will be a randomized, placebo controlled, double-blind (within dosing group), dose escalation phase 1 trial, evaluating dosages of 1 mcg and 4 mcg of HydroVax-001 WNV vaccine given intramuscularly on Day 1 and Day 29 in up to 50 healthy adults > /=18 and < 50 years of age. The primary objective is to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and tolerability of the HydroVax-001 WNV vaccine administered intramuscularly in a two-dose series on Days 1 and 29 at a dose of 1 mcg or a dose of 4 mcg.
