mLab App Plus: A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Mobile Health (mHealth) Intervention

HIV InfectionsSexually Transmitted Diseases2 more

Men who have sex with men (MSM), especially young men who have sex with men (YMSM), and transgender women (TGW) have some of the highest rates of HIV and syphilis diagnoses in the United States. The goal of this study is to pilot the mobile Lab (mLab) App Plus to assess YMSM's and YTGW's abilities to perform and interpret self-tests for HIV and syphilis and consequently increase the number of YMSM and young transgender woman (YTGW) who initiate self-testing for HIV and syphilis.

WiseApp for Spanish Speakers Living With HIV

HIV InfectionsAcquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome2 more

This study aims to conduct a 12-month randomized controlled trial to adapt the mobile app, WiseApp, and a smart pill dispenser for Spanish-speaking people living with HIV (PLWH) in the New York City (NYC) area and La Romana, Dominican Republic (DR). The study will assess the efficacy and sustainability of WiseApp as well as identify barriers with its widespread use among Spanish speakers. With disproportionately high rates of HIV in the New York City area and the Dominican Republic, this project seeks to identify distinct contextual factors related to Spanish speaking people living with HIV and increase the likelihood of engagement with technology and improvements in clinical outcomes.

Treatment of BK Virus Infection With CTL Cells in Immunocompromised Transplant Patients

BK Polyomavirus

This is a pilot study using cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) manufactured with the Miltenyi CliniMACS Prodigy Gamma-capture system will be effective in decreasing specific viral load in patients with BK virus viremia and BK virus-associated symptoms post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), renal transplantation, and chemotherapy.

An Experimental Medicine Decipher of a Minimum Correlate of Cellular Immunity

Infectious DiseaseYellow Fever2 more

We hypothesize that a high CD4+ and CD8+ T cell count will reduce viremia upon challenge with a structurally heterologous virus, and correspondingly result in reduced magnitude of host response to challenge infection. Primary Objective: To compare, after challenge with a structurally heterologous vaccine, the differences in levels of viremia between healthy adults who received primary vaccination with either YF17D vaccine, chimeric JE-YF17D vaccine, or inactivated JE vaccine. 58 subjects will be randomised into 1 of 2 arms (Arm B1 and Arm B2) in a 1:1 ratio, in a double-blind fashion. Subjects in Arm B1 will receive JE-YF17D vaccine (Imojev, Sanofi Pasteur) on Day 0 followed by YF17D vaccine (Stamaril, Sanofi Pasteur) on Day 28. Subjects in Arm B2 will receive Stamaril on Day 0 followed by Imojev on Day 28. Arm B3 will be conducted as a separate single-arm open label design in 14 subjects. Subjects in Arm B3 will receive inactivated JE vaccine (Ixiaro, Valneva) on Day 0 followed by Stamaril on Day 28. The rationale for these three study arms is as follows: Arm B1 will show the impact low levels of viremia, and the resultant low levels of virus-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, would have on YF17D infection. In contrast, YF17D vaccination in Arm B2 would produce high levels of viremia, and in turn high levels virus-specific T cells, thus likely ameliorating JE-YF17D infection. Arm B3 will serve as the control arm, as vaccination with inactivated JE vaccine would not produce any YF17D-specific T cell response. Notably, the first vaccination in Arms B1 and B2 would also provide the viremia response in the absence of virus-specific T cells, which would serve as a reference point to interpret the outcome of the second vaccination.

Trial of Scheduled Versus Treatment Administration of Donor-Derived Viral Specific T-cells for Viral...

Allogeneic Stell Cell TransplantViral Infection

The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the use of viral specific T-lymphocytes (VSTs) to prevent or treat viral infections that may happen after allogeneic stem cell transplant. Allogeneic means the stem cells come from another person. VSTs are cells specially designed to fight viral infections that may happen after a stem cell transplant (SCT). Stem cell transplant reduces the body's ability to fight infections. Viral infections are a common problem after transplant and can cause significant complications. Moreover, treatment of viral infections is expensive and time consuming, with families often administering prolonged treatments with intravenous anti-viral medications, or patients requiring prolonged admissions to the hospital. The medicines can also have side effects like damage to the kidneys or reduction in the blood counts, so in this study the investigators are trying to find a better way to treat these infections.

Modulate Cellular Stress in the Immune Cells to Reduce Rate of Symptomatic Viral Infection

Endoplasmic Reticulum StressViral Infection1 more

To determine the efficacy of metformin in reducing the rate of symptomatic YF17D infection, and to elucidate the effects of metformin on YF17D viremia and the downstream adaptive immune response, we hereby propose a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that is coupled with a system biology approach. We plan to recruit 44 healthy volunteers aged 21-40 years, with a Body Mass Index of 20-25 kg/m2, have no known drug allergies and are not currently receiving regular immune-modulating therapy such as metformin, NSAIDs, paracetamol, corticosteroids or statins. The age range that we propose will ensure that our volunteers are likely to be healthy and not be on long-term medication for other concurrent medical conditions. This would abrogate the confounding effect of YF17D infection enhancement by cross reactive antibodies that we have previously shown. Informed written consent will be obtained before any physical examination is performed. All consented subjects will undergo screening which includes a full physical examination, vital signs measurement, clinical laboratory tests and urine pregnancy test (for female subjects of child-bearing potential) Eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1 to either metformin 1000mg or placebo twice daily for 7 consecutive days (Days 1-7). On Day 4, subjects will be administered one dose of YF17D before study drug dosing. Aim 1 tests the hypothesis that prophylactic metformin reduces ER stress and thus attenuates the post-infection pro-inflammatory response for reduced rate of symptomatic outcome. The primary objective for Aim 1 is to determine the efficacy of metformin in reducing the rate of symptomatic YF17D infection using a randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial. Aim 2 explores the effectiveness of metformin, either through its action on ER stress or other pathways that differentially regulate the expression of pro- and anti-viral host factors, in inhibiting live attenuated vaccine infection and downstream adaptive immune responses. The primary objective for Aim 2 is to elucidate the effects of metformin on YF17D viremia and the downstream adaptive immune response.

Valacyclovir in Neonatal Herpes Simplex Virus Disease

Neonatal Herpes Simplex Infection

This is an open-label, single center, pharmacokinetic (PK) study to assess valacyclovir pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in neonates and compare to the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the standard of care treatment dose of intravenous acyclovir. 6 (up to 10 infants) with virologically confirmed neonatal herpes simplex virus (HSV) disease who meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. Study duration is 5 years. Primary objective is to define the pharmacokinetics of valacyclovir and assess its safety in neonates 2-12 weeks of age who are ≥ 34 weeks gestation.

The overall duration of the study will be approximately 180 days and will include approximately 5 visits and 15-30 minutes for each visit with a total of approximately 2.5 hours of your time. Additionally, fecal matter will also be collected in some subjects using a commercial collection kit.

Sequential Enhanced Safety Study of a Novel Coronavirus Messenger RNA (mRNA) Vaccine in Adults Aged...

Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19)

This trial is a clinical study to evaluate the safety of sequential boosters of novel coronavirus mRNA vaccine in adults aged 18 years and older who have completed three doses of novel inactivated coronavirus vaccination. According to the results of the previous phase I clinical trial, the incidence of adverse reactions in the 0.3 ml dose group was lower than that in the 0.5 ml dose group, and the degree of adverse reactions was weaker. The dose of 0.3ml was chosen for the current study, and a 1-dose immunization program was completed for safety observation.
