Filter by:The purpose of this study is to describe the immunogenicity and safety of Sanofi Pasteur's DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP-T fully liquid combined hexavalent vaccine (Hexaxim®) administered at 2, 3, and 4 months of age and at 16 to 17 months of age in infants and toddlers who received a dose of Hep B vaccine at birth or within 1 week after birth. Primary Objective: - To describe the safety profile after each and all doses of Sanofi-Pasteur's DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP-T combined vaccine in Vietnamese infants and toddlers. Secondary Objective: - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the immune response to all antigens induced by the study vaccine in Vietnamese infants one month after the third dose in a 3-dose primary series with the immune response to all antigens induced by the same study vaccine outside Vietnam. - To evaluate the immunogenicity of the study vaccine one month after the 3-dose primary series. - To describe the persistence of all antibodies before receipt of the booster vaccination. - To evaluate the immunogenicity of the study vaccine one month after the booster.
The main questions being addressed are (1) how patient reported outcomes change during treatment for HCV, (2) how treatment impacts liver function and liver status, and (3) how much treatment costs from the payer's perspective and the patient's perspective. The hypothesis being tested is that treatment has a negative effect on the quality of life during treatment. The negative effect is expected to be temporary. Successful treatment, which is equated with a virological cure of the infection, is expected to result in an improvement in quality of life compared to baseline and to improvement in markers of liver function and liver status. Costs of treatment are expected to be $80,000-$200,000 per virological cure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' Infanrix hexa, given in the primary vaccination schedule to infants born to pregnant women who participated in study 116945 [DTPA (BOOSTRIX)-047]. This study will help us evaluate if the presence of transplacentally transferred maternal antibodies interfere with the immune response to primary vaccination with Infanrix hexa and a co-administered pneumococcal conjugate vaccine given as a part of this study in infants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic interactions between simeprevir and ledipasvir in a treatment regimen consisting of simeprevir (SMV), sofosbuvir (SOF), and ledipasvir (LDV) in treatment-naive participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection.
This phase IV clinical study was designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the recombinant Hepatitis E vaccine(Hecolin®), manufactured by Xiamen Innovax Biotech CO., LTD., in healthy volunteers aged over 65 years of age at enrollment. The study volunteers will receive the 3 doses of Hecolin® administered intramuscularly according to a 0-1-6 month schedule.
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive adults with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy (sustained virological response 12 weeks after end-of-treatment [SVR12]) of 12-week course of an interferon-free regimen combining sofosbuvir and weight-dosed ribavirin (genotype 2), or sofosbuvir and ledipasvir (genotype 1 or 4) in treatment-naïve patients infected with HCV genotype 1, 2 or 4 in West and Central Africa Secondary Objectives: 1. To estimate the study treatment SVR24 rate 2. To evaluate the clinical and biological tolerance of study treatment 3. To describe HCV kinetics under HCV treatment, and identify associated factors 4. To describe the evolution of HIV disease under HCV treatment in HVC-HIV co-infected patients 5. To describe the changes of liver fibrosis based on non-invasive tests between treatment initiation, week 24, and week 36 after treatment, and estimate its association with SVR12 or SVR24 6. To identify factors associated with SVR12 and SVR24 (including HIV status) 7. To evaluate the performance of a nanodevice for rapid diagnosis of HCV viral load and genotypying and for assessing response to treatment (SVR12 and SVR24) 8. Facilitate the detection and treatment of those infected with HCV by supporting national initiatives for access to strategies without interferon 9. To set up a HCV clinical research network across French and English-speaking African countries, able to run large-scale comparative randomized clinical trials in a near future.
The investigator believes simeprevir concentrations are unchanged when administered in combination with dolutegravir relative to administration alone. The investigator believes dolutegravir concentrations are unchanged when administered in combination with simeprevir. Additionally, the investigator believes simeprevir and dolutegravir are safe when administered alone and in combination.
This protocol is being conducted to comply with the direct request from the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) for a 60-month intensive pharmacovigilance protocol of patients with known hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV) infection, regardless of control on antiviral therapy in Taiwan and who are treated with ipilimumab for advanced (unresectable, recurrent or metastatic) Melanoma.
This study is being done to compare three strategies to deliver HCV treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir which is an approved therapy which is administered as one tablet by mouth daily for 12 weeks. The study population is persons living with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection who also use drugs. Participants will be randomized into one of three treatment groups: 1. Usual care in the clinic. This treatment group will receive the standard of care for HCV treatment from their health care team. 2. Usual care plus peer-mentors. In addition to the usual care, this is an investigational strategy in which participants assigned to this group will be asked to interact with a peer-mentor who is someone who has been cured of their HCV infection. 3. Usual care plus incentives. In addition to the usual care, this is an investigational strategy in which participants assigned to this group will be given incentives after completing certain treatment goals during the course of the study. HCV treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir is considered the standard of care for HCV and is recommended by experts in liver disease and infectious diseases.
