NCT ID: NCT03879603 Completed - Clinical trials for Eastern Equine Encephalitis

VRC 313: A Trivalent Virus-like Particle (VLP) Encephalitis Vaccine (WEVEE) in Healthy Adults

Start date: April 2, 2019
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Western Equine Encephalitis Virus (WEEV), Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus (EEEV), and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus (VEEV) are transmitted to humans by infected mosquitoes and can cause encephalitis (swelling of the brain) and other neurological manifestations, including fever, chills, discomfort, feeling sick, muscle pain and then headache, vomiting, restlessness, irritability, seizures, coma, and death. Vaccines teach the body to prevent or fight an infection. When the body learns to fight an infection, this is called an immune response. Researchers developed a vaccine against Western, Eastern and Venezuelan equine encephalitis viruses to help the body make an immune response. There are no live or killed viruses in the vaccine, so you cannot get infected with any of these 3 viruses from getting the vaccine. The experimental trivalent encephalitis vaccine, VRC-WEVVLP073-00-VP, is composed of Western equine encephalitis (WEE), Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), and Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus-like particles (VLP). The purpose of this study is to test three doses (6 mcg, 30 mcg, and 60 mcg) of this experimental vaccine against Western, Eastern and Venezuelan equine encephalitis viruses.

NCT ID: NCT01080989 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

The Sero-Prevalence and Genetic Study for the Infectious Diseases and Metabolic Syndrome in Solomon Islands

Start date: March 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study project can be divided into two parts: (1) health screening for the community and (2) clinical diagnosis and treatment for patients at National Referral Hospital (NRH) in Solomon islands. The health screening includes a questionnaire, stool parasitic screening and blood laboratory tests. A total of 800 subjects will participate in this study. The collected samples are venous blood (20 ml/per subject) and stool in order to conduct the related tests mentioned above. As for the collection of target patients, KMUH will cooperate with NRH to collect two kinds of blood samples: the blood samples of confirmed malarial cases and those of cases suspicious of Flaviviral, Alpha-viral, Rickettsial, and Leptospiral infections. The expected received cases are 600 each year. The venous blood samples (20 ml/per subject) will be used to conduct related tests mentioned above. At the same time, the subjects will also have to fill out a related questionnaire which includes height, weight, waist line, heath behavior and habit, and past history, etc.
