Filter by:This study is a clinical, multi-center, retrospective, case-control study. Patients clinically diagnosed with severe anthrax who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in this study for analysis. Respiratory, circulation, nerve and other vital signs of patients with severe anthrax during hospitalization were recorded, and clinical data such as blood routine, blood biochemistry, coagulation function, myocardial injury, therapeutic drug use, and survival time of patients were recorded, as well as the survival situation of patients 28 days and 90 days after discharge.
This randomized, phase 2, double-blinded, multicenter study is designed to assess the safety and immune response kinetics of CYFENDUS™ (henceforth AV7909) administered on 2 primary series vaccination schedules followed by 6- and 12-month boosters.
This study is intended to estimate the Anthrax LF Dx System specificity. Sensitivity will be estimated with 10% of the samples spiked with recombinant Bacillus anthracis lethal factor (LF) used to prepare contrived positive samples.
This is a randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, Phase 1 study designed to assess safety, tolerability and immunogenicity 2 formulations of adjuvanted anthrax vaccine (AV7909), lyophilized and liquid. Forty healthy young adults, 18 to 45 years old, inclusive, who meet all eligibility criteria, will be randomly allocated to one of two study groups in a 1:1 ratio: 20 will receive AV7909 as the thermostable lyophilized product and 20 will receive AV7909 as the liquid product. The vaccines will be given intramuscularly in a 2-dose schedule, 2 weeks apart. Safety will be assessed by evaluation of non-serious unsolicited Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Medically Attended Adverse Events (MAAEs), Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) [the AESIs collected in this study are Potentially Immune-Mediated Medical Conditions (PIMMCs)], and by laboratory evaluations. Reactogenicity will be measured by the occurrence of solicited injection site and systemic reactions in the week after each study vaccination. Immunogenicity testing will include performing serological assays to assess for toxin neutralizing antibodies (reported as ED50 and NF50), the gold standard assay for assessing response and protection following anthrax vaccines, prior to vaccination and on approximately Days 8, 15, 22, 29, 64, 195, and 380. In addition, anti-PA IgG antibodies will be measured by ELISA from the serum of participants, on those same days. The primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of lyophilized and liquid formulations of AV7909. The primary tolerability objective is to assess the tolerability of lyophilized and liquid formulations of AV7909.
The primary objective of the study is to determine the estimated clinical specificity of the AAD Plus. A secondary objective is to determine the estimated sensitivity of the AAD Plus as 10% of the study subject samples will be contrived to be positive.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of BW-1010. BW-1010 is a nanoemulsion adjuvanted recombinant protein (rPA) that would protect against fatal outcome resulting from exposure to anthrax. The vaccine will be administered intranasally (IN) to healthy adults, age 18 - 49. The study will be conducted in 84 volunteers in one center in the United States. The study will compare 2 different dose levels of rPA (50µg and 100µg rPA), and 2 different administration methods (a sprayer and dropper) with a negative control (saline) and a positive control (the injectable BioThrax licensed vaccine). The vaccines and negative controls will be administered in 2 IN doses (4 weeks apart). The positive control will be 3 subcutaneous doses, 2 weeks apart. All volunteers will be observed for 1 year after the last dose. Immunological outcome studied will be from the serum, blood cells and nasal washes.
This study is designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of ciprofloxacin or doxycycline when administered orally, prior to, and following, the intramuscular (IM) administration of a two-dose schedule of AV7909 administered two weeks apart.
This study is designed to evaluate the lot consistency (using three consecutively manufactured lots), safety, and ability of the AV7909 anthrax vaccine to generate an immune response in healthy adults and compare the response to that induced by the currently licensed vaccine, BioThrax®, (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed; AVA) for post-exposure of anthrax disease.
This is an open-label study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of raxibacumab in healthy adult male and female subjects. Subjects who have received raxibacumab >= 4 months ago will be enrolled and dosed as follows: A maximum of 25 subjects (to include 3 evaluable female subjects) will receive a second dose of raxibacumab equal to that of the previous dose >= 4 months following the first dose. Subjects will remain in house from Day 0 until Day 1 and will be followed for 70 days after receiving the second dose of raxibacumab. Raxibacumab has been shown to provide improved survival in rabbit and monkey anthrax spore challenge studies. Preliminary data from our rabbit pivotal efficacy study showed significant survival benefit for raxibacumab over placebo. Exposure to anthrax and resulting clinical disease can occur more than once, especially in individuals who do not develop protective immunity. Hence, if clinically indicated for the treatment of anthrax, there may be a requirement for the repeat administration of raxibacumab. The rationale of the study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of repeat administration of raxibacumab with a >= 4 month interval between dosing.
This study will evaluate safety and clinical benefit of AIGIV used for treatment of patients with inhalational anthrax. This study will be implemented only in the event of a major anthrax exposure event. The study is designed to collect information on safety, clinical benefit (such as extent of anthrax illness and survival) and serum concentrations of AIGIV (for AIGIV pharmacokinetics) and anthrax toxins from inhalational anthrax patients treated with AIGIV.
