Filter by:This was a Phase IV open label and single arm study, with the aim of enrolling up to 55 healthy males and non-pregnant females in a single site, age 18-49 years old, inclusive. This study was designed to assess the humoral response to influenza vaccination and the longevity of humoral immunity to influenza vaccination in healthy adults. Total enrollment was 27 participants. This was a multi-year study. After one year of participation, participants were offered the opportunity to participate in the study for up to 3 consecutive years, provided eligibility criteria was met each year. Participants who elected to continue in the study after first year of participation were rescreened to verify continued eligibility and re-consented prior to subsequent participation. The primary study objective was to investigate the longevity of humoral immunity to influenza virus in humans. Note: Due to the Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, all non-essential research was halted in mid-March 2020. New enrollments were placed on hold for this study. Follow-up visits were also halted, which impacted the timing of participants' subsequent follow-up visits. Participant visits for Day 7 and Day 14 were not impacted. For this study, there were participants whose Day 28 and Day 90 visits were impacted by the temporary halting of non-essential research studies. As such, a request was submitted to the Emory University Institutional Review Board to extend the missed visit windows for the Day 28 and Day 90 visits for a maximum of up to 180 days, to ensure that ample time was available to bring participants back for their missed visits. Enrollment for this study ended on March 31, 2020, before research activities could resume at Emory.
This was an open label, single arm, Phase IV study of longitudinal immunologic responses to influenza vaccine in healthy adult participants, with the aim of enrolling up to 70 participants. This study enrolled males and non-pregnant females, 18-49 years old, inclusive. The participants were screened at enrollment with a history and physical exam and laboratory testing to ensure they were healthy enough to participate. Total enrollment was 60 participants. Qualifying participants were vaccinated with an FDA approved seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV) according to the package insert. The study enrolled a total 60 participants. The primary objective of the study was to characterize HA-specific plasmablasts and memory B cells after influenza vaccination. Note: Due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, all non-essential research was halted in mid-March 2020. New enrollments were placed on hold for this study. Follow-up visits were also halted, which impacted the timing of participants' subsequent follow-up visits. Five participants had their Day 180 visits halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This Phase 1/2 protocol is designed to collect safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic data of two doses of Laninamivir Octanoate in children and adolescents. The protocol will also explore virology and efficacy endpoints.
This is a single blinded placebo controlled phase I study, to assess the safety and immunogenicity of co-administration of the candidate influenza vaccine MVA-NP+M1 with the Viroflu® seasonal influenza vaccine. All volunteers recruited will be healthy adults aged 18 and over.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that will be conducted in tertiary care pediatric hospitals in El Salvador and Panama. The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether empiric oseltamivir phosphate treatment given at the time of hospital admission to children less than 10 years of age hospitalized with influenza can effectively reduce their illness severity. Additional objectives are to: 1) evaluate the tolerability of oseltamivir phosphate treatment, 2) evaluate the effect of oseltamivir treatment on viral clearance and development of oseltamivir-resistant influenza virus during and after treatment in children hospitalized with influenza, 3) estimate the direct and indirect costs of all-cause respiratory illness and influenza-associated respiratory illness requiring hospitalization, and 4) evaluate the effect of empiric oseltamivir treatment during the influenza season on these costs. The primary study hypothesis is that children with laboratory-confirmed influenza receiving empiric oseltamivir phosphate treatment initiated at the time of hospital admission will have a shorter duration of hospitalization and a shorter time to resolution of signs of severe respiratory illness compared to children receiving placebo. The secondary study hypotheses are that children with laboratory-confirmed influenza receiving oseltamivir phosphate treatment will have a reduction in the time to non-detectable influenza virus and influenza viral RNA and children with all-cause respiratory illness receiving oseltamivir phosphate will not be more likely to experience severe adverse events than children receiving placebo.
The Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV), also known as FluMist, has been shown to be effective in children but less effective in adults. Our hypothesis is that this relative failure is due to adults having enough anti-flu IgA antibody in nasal secretions to neutralize the weakened vaccine virus.
The main purpose of this study is to see if patients with the flu would receive oseltamivir treatment more quickly if it were prescribed by a pharmacist as compared to a physician, and to see if there is any difference in the effect of treatment on flu symptoms and overall health. Another reason for doing the study is to see how accurately pharmacists can diagnose the flu as compared to physicians. Viruses that are exposed to antiviral medications (like oseltamivir) sometimes develop a resistance to the medication. This means that the medication is no longer as effective in treating the symptoms caused by the virus. The development of viral resistance to oseltamivir will also be followed in this study.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and pharmacology of single administrations of AVI-7100, a candidate treatment for influenza.
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single dose of intravenous peramivir versus placebo in adolescents and adults with acute uncomplicated influenza.
The purpose of this observer-blind study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' influenza vaccine GSK2584786A in healthy children 6 to 35 months of age.
