Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and tolerable Brincidofovir (BCV) is when given for post exposure prophylaxis of Ebola virus disease.
MOSAIC is a single-blind experimental medicine study to determine the extent to which different prime-boost combinations of model immunogens based on HIV-1 envelope proteins influence the diversity of B and T cell responses.
This study is being conducted to determine whether MAU868 warrants further clinical development for the prevention of BKV infection in kidney transplant recipients.
Vaccine-preventable diseases such as hepatitis A and meningitis, as well as cancers caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) disproportionately impact young Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM). Traditional techniques of vaccination promotion have been unable to address the racial disparities in vaccination rates. One promising method for influencing behavior change within YBMSM networks is diffusion of information through Popular Opinion Leaders (POLs). The POL model engages persons who are leaders within their own networks/communities to promote behavior change. The objective of this project is to develop and pilot test a POL intervention to increase routine HAV, HPV and meningococcal conjugate vaccination among YBMSM, ages 18-26. research (PAR) framework to facilitate community support and ensure intervention strategies are salient. PAR includes community members as equal collaborators in the research process. Outcomes from these aims are expected to have an impact on health outcomes by identifying effective strategies for increasing vaccination and routine healthcare engagement among YBMSM.
Primary Efficacy Objective -To assess whether a 12-week treatment course with oral 50 mg elbasvir plus 100 mg grazoprevir given in a single daily dose to treatment-naïve patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and infected with genotype 4 (GT4) chronic HCV (CHC) infection can produce a sustained viral response (SVR), i.e. HCV RNA below the lower limit of quantification [LLOQ] for 12 weeks (SVR12) after completion of the study treatment course Secondary Objectives - To assess the efficacy of elbasvir/grazoprevir in suppressing HCV viremia in treatment-naïve GT4 CHC patients at each scheduled visit and clinically meaningful endpoints (Week 2, 8 and 12 [End of Treatment - EOT]) and 24 (SVR12) - To assess the safety and tolerability of a 12-week treatment course with elbasvir/grazoprevir in treatment-naïve patients with ESRD and infected with GT4 CHC. - To assess liver fibrosis by non-invasive evaluation of liver stiffness (Fibroscan®) in the same patients before treatment and EOT and SVR12 Clinical hypotheses. Primary Efficacy Hypothesis - A 12-week treatment course with elbasvir/grazoprevir in treatment-naïve patients with ESRD and infected with GT4 CHC infection will result in an HCV RNA below the LLOQ in 95% of patients within 2 weeks of treatment, and at least 95% will have an SVR12. Secondary hypotheses - A 12-week treatment course with elbasvir/grazoprevir in ESRD GT4 treatment-naïve patients will result in undetectable viremia in 95% patients at Week 2, 4, 8 and 12 (EOT) and 24 (SVR12) - Treatment will be safe and well-tolerated in these patients, as determined by the type and number of adverse events identified through laboratory testing, vital signs and physical examinations. - In these patients with liver fibrosis before treatment, the liver fibrosis as assessed by non-invasive evaluation of liver stiffness (Fibroscan®) will improve by EOT and SVR12
Study to enroll up to 1000 adult patients (>18 years) presenting with febrile or rash illness of short duration (<72h) in designated clinics in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the 1 year immunogenicity persistence of Rabipur in children 6-17 years of age, and compare the Zagreb regimen with the Essen regimen.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of the investigational GSK RSV vaccine in pregnant women aged 18 to 40 years and infants born to the vaccinated women
A total of 96 subjects will be recruited into 5 groups. Each subject will receive either two vaccinations with MVA-BN-RSV vaccine or placebo.
The investigator's aim in this study is to evaluate the impact of a new standard of care protocol for the treatment of BK viremia and nephropathy (BKVAN), which includes switching from Tacrolimus to equivalent dose of Cyclosporine in patients who have been diagnosed with BK viremia or BKVAN based on their viral load, overall graft function (estimated glomerular filtration rate), acute rejection, and rate of graft loss due to rejection or BKVAN.
