Filter by:As an alternative biomarker of intrahepatic covalently closed circular DNA(cccDNA) transcriptional activity, hepatitis B virus(HBV)RNA may evolve during long-lasting virus-host interactionsduring chronic hepatitis B viral infection.The distribution pattern of serum HBV RNA levels in the natural course of chronic HBV infection remains unclear. Furthermore,serum HBV RNA was associated with response to NAs. So it may be another clinical surrogate marker for intrahepatic cccDNA level after long-term NAs treatment and be used to monitor NAs therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate thelevels of HBV RNA during the natural courseof CHB and the role in distinguishingthe natural phases of HBV infection and to investigate whether serum HBV RNA level at the end of long-term NAs treatment had a similar or better predict effect on off-therapy relapse than serum HBsAg titer.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the use of viral specific T-lymphocytes (VSTs) to prevent viral infections that may happen after allogeneic stem cell transplant. Allogeneic means the stem cells come from another person. VSTs are cells specially designed to fight viral infections that may happen after a stem cell transplant (SCT). Stem cell transplant reduces your ability to fight infections. Viral infections are a common problem after transplant and can cause significant complications. Moreover, treatment of viral infections is expensive and time consuming, with families often administering prolonged treatments with intravenous anti-viral medications, or patients requiring prolonged admissions to the hospital. The medicines can also have side effects like damage to the kidneys or reduction in the blood counts, so in this study we are trying to find a way to prevent these infections.
The innovative drug XC221 is planned for use in treatment of acute respiratory viral infections in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, comparative multicenter study assessing the safety, tolerability and efficacy of XC221 at a dose of 200 mg per day in patients with uncomplicated influenza or other acute respiratory viral infections during the 3-days treatment.
The VAC52150EBL3005 (EBOVAC-Salone Extension) is a cohort study evaluating the long-term safety and immunogenicity of the candidate Ebola vaccines Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN®-Filo in participants who were exposed to these vaccines in the VAC52150EBL3001 trial (EBOVAC-Salone, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02509494). No investigational vaccine will be administered during this study. The study will consist of an enrolment visit, a number of study visits and an end-of-study visit.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that persons over the age of 13 years can obtain a self-collected nasal swab reliably and safely for subsequent use in the diagnosis of influenza. Similarly, the purpose is to demonstrate that parents or guardians can safely and effectively collect nasal swab specimens from children, ages 0 through 12 years, and others needing assistance in doing so, and that these parent/guardian-collected nasal swabs can also be used in the diagnosis of influenza. Clinical performance of the swabs will be based on the comparison of the performance of the nasal swab that is self- or parent/guardian-collected to one collected from the same specimen donor by a skilled clinical coordinator and used in CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments)-waived, rapid diagnostic test called Sofia Influenza A+B FIA (fluorescence immunoassay analyzer).
This is a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of galidesivir following administration of single doses by IV infusion
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the ZIKV Detect™ 2.0 IgM Capture ELISA using archived confirmed ZIKV positive and confirmed ZIKV negative human serum samples.
Yellow Fever is an acute viral hemorrhagic disease caused by the Yellow Fever Virus (YFV), a re-emerging arbovirus transmitted by the same mosquito vector (Aedes aegypti) that transmits Dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV). YFV is endemic in tropical and subtropical areas of South America and Africa, causing an estimated 200,000 infections and 30,000 deaths annually. It has now become a growing public health problem, rapidly spreading throughout the two (2) continents in a cyclical pattern. With climate change, global travel and urbanisation, which increase the chance for mosquito-borne diseases to spread rapidly, the risk of YFV establishing its foothold in the Asia-Pacific region with periodic epidemic bursts remains a real public health concern. Although there is currently a safe and effective vaccine available on the market, global shortages of supplies have severely hampered any efforts in the prevention and control of YFV outbreaks. To date, no YFV therapy (biologic or small molecule) has advanced to clinical trials. TY014 will be the first therapeutic in the world, specifically targeting YFV, to enter clinical trials. It is anticipated that a monoclonal antibody therapeutic could be administered to infected cases to reduce disease severity within the patient and their contacts. This is a Phase 1, first-in-human TY014, YFV monoclonal antibody (mAb), study to be conducted in two (2) arms: - Safety Arm (1A): Healthy adult volunteers - Efficacy Arm (1B): Healthy adult volunteers challenged with YF-17D Vaccine Strain 24 hours prior to TY014 dosing TY014 will be administered once through single IV infusion over 30 minutes. Total duration of study participation is estimated at approximately 114 days from the date of screening. The main objectives of this study are to: (a) evaluate the safety of TY014 in healthy adult volunteers, and (b) evaluate the safety of TY014 in YF-17D Vaccine Strain-challenged healthy adult volunteers. Percentage aviremia of YF-17D Vaccine Strain-challenged subjects within 48 hours after IV infusion of TY014 will also be assessed.
The purpose of this study is to describe extra-pulmonary clinical manifestations of Influenza virus and Respiratory Syncitial Virus infections in hospitalized adults at a French university hospital.
SHARP-P is an observational cohort study investigating the effect of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy and reinfection in people with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and recent injecting drug use. A prospective, observational cohort design will be used to enrol patients from correctional centres in New South Wales, Australia. Participants will be prescribed a direct-acting HCV medication as per the standard of care. The on treatment phase will vary dependent on the type of a direct-acting antiviral prescribed as per the standard of care. Once patients have completed their treatment course they will be followed up every 3 months for up to 3 years following the end of treatment phase. The study will aim to evaluate the incidence of HCV reinfection following successful DAA treatment over the three years of follow up. The study will also evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at 12 weeks post end of treatment (SVR12) with direct-acting anti-viral HCV therapy.
