Filter by:Despite access to experimental Ebola Virus Disease (EVD)-specific treatments, about 30% of patients still die in the Ebola Treatment Centers (ETC) in DRC. There is limited study done about the potential contribution of bacterial co-infections (in particular bloodstream infections) to this adverse outcome, as blood cultures were so far rarely available in epidemic areas. Findings from patients treated in Europe and the USA, and case discussions in the field call for further investigation. Building further on an ongoing microbiological surveillance project of ITM and INRB in DRC, we are able to set up a research project which will pilot in a standardized manner clinical bacteriology tools (bacterial blood cultures, biomarkers as CRP, procalcitonin and white blood cell differential count, and clinical early warning scores) to study bacterial bloodstream infection in EVD patients in the N-Kivu/Ituri outbreak. This project will add evidence on 1) frequency, causative pathogen and antibiotic resistance profiles of bacterial bloodstream infections, as well as 2) the predictive value of biomarkers and early warning scores, in EVD patients at different timepoints during hospitalization in an ETC in DRC. The results will inform appropriate antibiotic treatment in an EVD setting and improve patient outcomes.
This study aims to evaluate favipiravir high dose tolerance in male survivor of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) with Ebola Virus (EBOV) RNA in semen. This is a dose escalation study with 3 cohorts of 6 patients, each dose level including 2 sentinel patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess the long-term safety profile of Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo in participants previously exposed to these vaccines in Phase 1, 2, or 3 clinical studies.
The objective of this Phase 1 safety study is to provide access to the potential therapeutic benefit of EBOV convalescent plasma containing antibodies to EBOV. The risk of exposure to plasma from donors who may be infected with other transfusion-transmitted pathogens, not detectable by current licensed donor testing procedures, will be mitigated by using pathogen inactivation to minimize the risk of the TTI from these donors, who would otherwise be deferred and ineligible for blood donation.
Phase 1, single-center, placebo-controlled, single-blind, first-in-human, single ascending dose (SAD) study followed by a multiple-dose cohort in healthy male and female subjects.
This is a phase 1, single-center, placebo-controlled, single-blind, first-in-human, single-ascending dose study with additional multiple-ascending dose cohorts in healthy male and female volunteers.
