Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and tolerability of rMenB+OMV NZ and MenACWY vaccines when concomitantly administered to healthy subjects 16-18 years of age.
The need for and timing of booster doses of meningococcal vaccines in People Living with HIV (PLWHIV) is currently unknown. As such it is impossible for clinicians to recommend booster doses or to know if and when these might be necessary.We propose to follow up a group of participants from the Propositive study who received two doses of both MenB (Bexsero) and MenACWY (Menveo). This was a group of PLWHIV between the ages 18-45 years. We propose following up these participants at 18 and 30 months post completion of two doses of vaccine and investigating their immunological response.
A single-center and open-labeled Phase I study, designed to evaluate the safety by observing the occurrence of adverse events and change of hematology, liver and renal function after vaccination of a meningococcal group A, C, Y, and W135 conjugate vaccine in healthy population aged 2 months to 55 years old.
Active metropolitan area surveillance for hospital admissions related to invasive infection with Neisseria meningitidis will be conducted at the 12 centers in the IMPACT network in collaboration with Public Health officials, local infection specialists and infection control practitioners during the interval from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2022.
This will be a Phase III, modified double-blind (open-label for toddlers in India), randomized, parallel-group, active-controlled, step-wise, multi-center study to compare and describe the immunogenicity and safety of MenACYW conjugate vaccine when administered as a single dose in healthy adults, adolescents, children, and toddlers in India and a modified double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, active-controlled, multi-center study to compare and describe the immunogenicity and safety of MenACYW conjugate vaccine when administered as a single dose in healthy adolescents and children in the Republic of South Africa (RSA).
Primary Objective: To demonstrate sufficiency of the vaccine seroresponse to meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y following administration of a single dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y, and W 135) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine to Group 1 participants (who received primary vaccination with Menomune vaccine greater than or equal to [>= 3] years earlier at >= 56 years of age in Study MET49). Secondary Objectives: Secondary Objective 1 - To demonstrate sufficiency of the vaccine seroresponse to meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y following administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine to Group 2 participants (who received primary vaccination with MenACYW Conjugate vaccine >= 3 years earlier at >= 56 years of age in Study MET49). Secondary Objective 2 - To describe vaccine seroresponse rates with respect to serogroups A, C, W, and Y in serum specimens collected 6 days (window, 5-7) post-vaccination in approximately 60 participants from Group 1 (Menomune-primed) and approximately 60 participants from Group 2 (MenACYW Conjugate vaccine-primed). Secondary Objective 3 - To describe antibody persistence >= 3 years after primary vaccination with Menomune vaccine or MenACYW Conjugate vaccine for participants from all groups.
Three induction treatment strategies [ voriconazole +5FC vs. amphotericin deoxycholate (0.4-0.5 mg/kg/d)+5FC vs. amphotericin deoxycholate (0.7-1.0 mg/kg/d)+5FC ] for HIV-infected patients with cryptococcal meningitis were compared.
This study is designed to allow cord blood sample collection from the cords of babies born in three gestational age windows: ≥37 gestational weeks, 32-36+6 gestational weeks and less than 32 gestational weeks to investigate whether the result obtained using a standard hSBA assay is comparable to that achieved using complement from a gestation matched population for meningococcal B and pertussis.
This study aims to identify the aetiology of childhood meningitis in Southwestern Uganda and develop and evaluate new methods for point-of-care diagnosis of childhood meningitis in a low-income setting. A prospective observational study including 600 children aged 0-12 years will be conducted during 1 year in Mbarara, Uganda. We estimate to recruit about 300 children with suspected meningitis (cases), and 300 with non-severe infection age-matched as controls.
The primary objectives of this study are: - To describe the antibody response to meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y measured by serum bactericidal assay using baby rabbit complement (rSBA) before and after a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine - To describe the antibody response to meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) before and after a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine - To describe the antibody responses against tetanus toxoid at baseline and after a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine - To describe the safety profile of a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine
