NCT ID: NCT06268691 Completed - Dengue Clinical Trials

Sustainable Reduction of Dengue in Colombia: Vector Breeding Site Intervention With an Insecticidal Coating

Start date: February 4, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Effective control of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in breeding sites with high reproductive rates could have a major impact on reducing arbovirosis in endemic communities. The application of a safe, effective, low cost and sustained insecticide coating (IC) could be an affordable response to dengue for local health services. Therefore, a cluster randomised trial for the application of a new vector control tool (insecticidal coating of water containers) was conducted in the metropolitan area of Cúcuta, Colombia. The IC is an aqueous solution containing polymeric microcapsules of insecticides and insect growth regulators (pyriproxyfen-PPF (0.063%) and alphacypermertrin-ACM (0.7%) in suspension, without interaction between them, development by INESFLY®, Spain. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes, through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce dengue transmission in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters, in Cúcuta, Colombia. Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce the Aedes Indices in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters. The initial preparation phases: i) socialization ii) A safety evaluation to determine the health risks of IC in domestic water containers; iii) The determination of the effects and efficacy of IC on Aedes aegypti. The Baseline study to characterise the study clusters from entomological, epidemiological and socio-economic approaches was carried out in 2019-2020. The IC application phase in the intervention arm was carried out between Nov-2021 and Jan-2022, with the respective monitoring of the safety of IC use. This was followed by entomological monitoring. Finally, the 9-month post-intervention evaluation. Epidemiological data were obtained from the National Public Health Surveillance System - SIVIGILA. The study was conducted in 20 clusters of 2000 dwellings each, where 10 clusters were randomly assigned to the control arm and 10 clusters to the intervention arm. In order to determine the effect of IC application in household tanks, the dengue incidence and entomological indices are compared in the study clusters. The data are analysed under the difference in difference approach. Additionally, the acceptance of IC in the intervened communities and local health services is determined.

Study design: 1. An interrupted time-series analysis utilising routine disease surveillance data collected by the Medellín and Bello Health Secretariats, which aims to compare incidence of dengue, chikungunya and Zika pre- and post-Wolbachia release. 2. A test-negative study using an incident case-control design, which aims to quantify the reduction in disease incidence among people living within a Wolbachia-treated zone compared with an untreated zone that has a similar dengue risk profile at baseline.

NCT ID: NCT03553277 Completed - Clinical trials for Arbovirus Infections

Spatial Repellents for Arbovirus Control

Start date: June 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Dengue viruses are the most medically important arthropod-borne pathogens worldwide, with transmission occurring in most tropical and sub-tropical regions. An estimated 390 million infections occur yearly. Although, there are considerable ongoing efforts to develop a vaccine, vector control remains the only option for reducing dengue virus (DENV) transmission and disease burden. The recent emergence of Aedes-borne Zika (ZIKV) and Chikungunya viruses (CHIKV) highlight need for novel vector control tools. The goal of this project is to determine the efficacy of a spatial repellent (SR) product (active ingredient transfluthrin) for reducing contact between household residents and vector mosquitos and as a result reduce DENV, ZIKV, and/or other Aedes-borne virus transmission. Henceforth the investigators will designate the combined risk of Aedes-borne dengue, Chikungunya, Zika virus transmission by (DCZV). Spatial repellency is used here as a general term to refer to a range of insect behaviors caused by airborne chemicals that reduce contact between people and disease vectors. This can include movement away from a chemical stimulus, and interference with host detection (attraction-inhibition) and/or feeding response.

NCT ID: NCT03210363 Completed - Clinical trials for Arbovirus Infections

Sero-epidemiology of Priority Arboviruses in French Guiana

EPI-ARBO
Start date: June 9, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Dengue is an important public health problem despite the efforts of local health authorities to mitigate the impact of epidemics and the epidemiology of dengue evolved from an endemo-epidemic to a hyper-endemic state. In late 2013, the first local transmission of chikungunya virus in the Americas was identified in Caribbean countries and territories including French Guiana. Rapidly, more than 16,000 suspected local Health authorities had reported cases. In May 2015, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) issued an alert regarding the first confirmed Zika virus infections in Brazil. The emergence of Zika virus in South America led to a rapid spread throughout South and Central America, reaching French Guiana in December 2015. With the increasing frequency of epidemics related to arbovirus and the resulting health, social, and economic impacts of dengue, the surveillance of arbovirus have become social, political, and public health challenges that require specific and non-available immune status information.

NCT ID: NCT03206541 Completed - Meningitis Clinical Trials

Neurologic Manifestations of the Arbovirus Infection in Colombia

Start date: January 1, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This is a multi-center case-control study that aims to define the association between the exposure to an arbovirus infection and the development of a neurological syndrome in patients from Colombia. The study makes part of the Neurovirus Emerging in the Americas Study (NEAS) that is a collaborative effort that looks to combine the efforts of researchers, healthcare providers and patients in Colombia to establish a comprehensive registry of the clinical, radiological and laboratory profile of patients with new onset of neurological diseases associated mosquito-borne viruses, known as arboviruses.

NCT ID: NCT02794181 Completed - Zika Virus Clinical Trials

Zika Virus and Related Arbovirus Infections in Deferred Blood Donors (ZVADD)

Start date: June 8, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: Zika virus is mostly passed on by the bite of an infected mosquito. It usually causes mild illness. But in pregnant women it can cause serious birth defects to the baby. The virus can also spread by blood transfusion and sexual intercourse. This is why the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) recommended that people should not give blood if possibly exposed to Zika virus. Dengue virus and chikungunya virus are passed by the same mosquitoes as Zika virus. These can cause severe reactions if passed through transfused blood. Donated blood is usually not tested for these three viruses. Researchers want to count the infections in people who have been exposed because of travel or sexual exposure. They want to learn the risk these viruses might pose to the U.S. blood supply. They also want to study the natural history of these viruses by following infected people over time. Objective: To study the risk of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya viruses to the U.S. blood supply. Eligibility: Adults age 18 or older who were turned down for donating blood because of possible exposure to certain viruses. Design: Participants will have blood and urine tests. They will answer questions about their travel. They will be called in about a week with virus test results. Participants with negative results do not have any more study visits. Participants with positive results will be asked to stay in the study for 6 months. They will have weekly clinic visits and tests until results are negative for 2 straight weeks. Once test results are negative, they will have monthly visits. Visits will include physical exams, blood and urine samples, and optional semen samples from men. Most people will have 3-4 weekly visits and 5 monthly visits.

NCT ID: NCT01868399 Completed - Clinical trials for Arbovirus Infections

Pilot Survey of Dengue Fever in Solomon Islands

Start date: March 22, 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Since 2009, Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital organized a medical team to provide the medical service for people in Solomon Islands thru Taiwan Health Center at the local. In addition to Malaria and pulmonary tuberculosis, the investigators also found dengue virus, Japanese Encephalitis virus, Chikungunya virus infections and intestinal parasitic infections might be the existing but overlooked and neglected medical issues in Solomon Islands. These infections show similarity in clinical manifestations and usually difficulty in clinical diagnosis, instead these infections rely on the laboratory identification with good laboratory quality and facility.
