Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about the influence of pre-existing mucosal immunity, i.e. antibodies and immune cells that are present at the nasal mucosa before infection, on the infectious viral load after infection with SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus and RSV. The investigators will include app. 320 participants which will be followed for up to 17 months. During this time, the investigators will monitor their nasal mucosal antibodies at regular intervals and compare them to their infectious viral load if they are infected with SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus or RSV. Participants are invited to take a test for SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus or RSV in case of respiratory symptoms. If participants are positive the investigators will follow their viral load kinetics by taking nasopharyngeal swabs every 2-3 days. The investigators will also record the duration and strength of the following symptoms: - Cough - Fever - Tired - Sore throat - Difficulty breathing - Respiratory distress - Headache - Loss (or alteration) of smell - Loss (or alteration) of sense of taste - Myalgias - Chills - Subjective fever - Pink sputum (or coughing up blood) - Thoracic pain - Runny nose - Abdominal pain - Nausea - Vomiting - Diarrhea - Constipation - Irritated or watery eyes - Rashes - Other
Investigators aimed to compare clinical and radiographic markers between SARS-CoV-2 positive and RSV positive infants
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the infectivity, safety, and immunogenicity of a single dose of a recombinant, live-attenuated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine, LID/ΔM2-2/1030s, in RSV-seronegative infants and children 6 to 24 months of age.
This observational study will determine the burden of RSV disease in at least 2000 healthy infants over 6 years until November 2026. The study will determine the incidence of acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI) associated with RSV, of medically attended ARTI and RSV related hospitalisation. Mortality (RSV associated and all-cause) through all RSV seasons and the health care costs, resource use and Health Related Quality of Life will also be determined. The study also aims to determine important risk factors for RSV infection (by severity and healthcare utilisation.
The REspiratory Syncytial virus Consortium in EUrope (RESCEU) is an Innovative Medicine Initiative (IMI) effort funded by the EU under the H2020 framework to define and understand the burden of disease caused by human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. RSV causes severe disease in individuals at the extremes of the age spectrum and in high risk groups. It was estimated that RSV was associated with 34 million cases of acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI), 3.4 million ARTI hospitalizations and 55,000 to 199,000 deaths in children <5 years in 2005 worldwide. These estimates were based on limited data and there is a substantial gap in knowledge on morbidity and associated healthcare and social costs in Europe. New vaccines and therapeutics against RSV are in development and will soon be available on the European market. RESCEU will deliver knowledge of the incidence and burden of disease RSV in young children and older adults in Europe, which is essential for stakeholders (governments, etc) to take decisions about prophylaxis and treatment. Objective: To determine the burden of disease due to RSV in young children. Study design: Prospective epidemiological, observational, multi-country, multicenter cohort study. Study population: Birth cohort of healthy infants (follow-up from birth until the age of 3 years maximum): - Passive birth cohort (n=9,000). - Active birth cohort (n=1,000). Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint of the study is the incidence of RSV infection-associated ARTI, RSV associated medically attended (MA) ARTI (active birth cohort) and RSV related hospitalization (passive birth cohort) in infants (< 1 year) during 3 RSV seasons. In addition, a major secondary endpoint is RSV attributable burden of wheezing.

The estimated burden of disease in older adults is comparable with non-pandemic influenza A (for which a vaccine is available). These estimates were based on limited data and there is a substantial gap in knowledge on morbidity and associated healthcare and social costs in Europe. New vaccines and therapeutics against RSV are in development and could soon be available on the European market. RESCEU will deliver knowledge of the incidence and burden of RSV disease in young children and older adults in Europe, which is essential for stakeholders (governments, etc.) to take decisions about prophylaxis and treatment. Objective: To determine the burden of disease due to RSV in older adults. Study design: Prospective epidemiological, observational, multi-country, multicenter cohort study. Study population: Adults aged 60 years and up (n=1,000) of which approximately 50% is above 75 years of age. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoints of the study are; - The incidence of RSV infection-associated ARTI. - RSV associated medically attended (MA) ARTI. - RSV related hospitalization.
