Filter by:Phase 2a study designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Faldaprevir and TD-6450 in combination with Ribavirin for a 12-week treatment duration in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF)-based regimens administered as per the approved prescribing information in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection treated in routine clinical practice in India.
This is a study of V501 [quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) (Type 6, 11, 16 and 18) L1 virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine] in healthy Japanese boys. This study will consist of two periods. Period I of the study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and tolerability of V501 up to Month 7. Period II of the study is to evaluate the long-term immunogenicity and safety from Month 7 to Month 30. Two analyses are planned. The first analysis will be conducted when all subjects have completed their Month 7 visit or have been discontinued before that time. The second analysis will be conducted at the end of study. The primary hypothesis tested in this study is that seroconversion rates for the vaccine HPV types will be >90% at 4 weeks postdose 3.
A Single-Center, Randomized, Blind, Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of the Adenovirus Type 5 Vector Based Ebola Virus Disease Vaccine (Ad5-EBOV) in Healthy Adults Aged Between 18 and 50 years in Sierra Leone.
This study assessed the efficacy and safety of anti-influenza immune plasma, as an addition to standard of care antivirals, in participants hospitalized with severe influenza A infection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of 2 formulations of GSK Biologicals' varicella vaccines given as a 2-dose course in the second year of life.
This use-results post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study for Sovaldi® tablets (sofosbuvir, SOF) administered in combination with Rebetol® capsules (ribavirin, REB) will evaluate the safety and efficacy of SOF administered in combination with ribavirin under real world use in Japan. Among adult patients with chronic genotype 2 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and treated with SOF+ribavirin in routine clinical use, the primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) under real world settings.
The incidence of HIV/AIDS among African American men who have sex with men (MSM) is alarming, and the public health response to this urgent situation has been hampered by a lack of sexual risk reduction interventions with solid evidence of efficacy in this population. Accordingly, the broad, long-term objective of the proposed research is to identify interventions to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infection (STI) among African American MSM. This application seeks funds to develop and test the efficacy of a theory-based, contextually appropriate behavioral intervention to reduce sexual risk behavior among African American MSM. Intervention development will be guided by social cognitive theory, the theory of planned behavior, qualitative information from focus groups, and findings from a longitudinal survey of men from the study population. A one-on-one intervention will be utilized to address the specific prevention needs of each man and to allay participants' concerns about revealing their sexual involvement with men by virtue of participating in a group or workshop intervention. The study will utilize a randomized controlled trial design, with baseline, immediate post intervention, and 6 and 12 months post intervention assessments. The participants will be African American MSM who will be randomized to a one-on-one sexual risk reduction intervention or a one-on-one health promotion intervention that will serve as the control condition. The primary outcome is consistent condom use during anal and vaginal intercourse. The study will test whether the intervention increases the consistent use of condoms during anal intercourse, the primary outcome, whether it decreases other sexual risk behaviors, and whether social cognitive theory variables mediate the effects of the intervention on consistent condom use. This study will provide an urgently needed intervention to reduce the risk of HIV and other STIs in one of the highest risk populations in the United States.
Randomized, 2-arm observational study. The 2 arms (randomized at the level of health care provider) will be: 1. usual practice; 2. automated reminders to recommend 2nd and 3rd doses of HPV vaccine for eligible male and female adolescents who have initiated vaccination.
Late 2013, the first indigenous cases of chikungunya have been observed in the French Antilles. At the end of May 2014, almost all of the islands of the Caribbean were affected by the outbreak. During the large epidemic which affected the Island of La Réunion in 2005/2006, the attack rate was 38%. The most active period was three months. In this context, knowledge of the attack rate and the epidemic in the Caribbean is an important issue for outbreak management and modeling work. As the chikungunya virus had never circulated in the Caribbean, determining the seroconversion rate can be achieved by realizing a seroprevalence survey among the general population at the end of the outbreak. Another simple method is to estimate the rate in a cohort of patients followed regularly and whose habitat is distributed throughout the territory studied. The follow up of patients infected by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the French West Indies is almost exclusively performed in hospitals in department of Infectious and Tropical Diseases.The high prevalence of HIV and homogeneous distribution of infected patients on all of our territories, allow to hypothesize that the risk of transmission of arboviruses by exposure to mosquito bites is comparable to the general population. This patient cohort is well suited to study the emergence of Chikungunya in the French West Indie . Primary objective : To estimate the cumulative incidence at the end of the first Chikungunya outbreak in the French West Indies by estimating the prevalence of specific antibodies of chikungunya virus in a sample (randomly constituted) from patients infected by HIV and representative of the general population of Martinique and Guadeloupe Secondary objective : To estimate the frequency of asymptomatic infections by the chikungunya virus in the studied population To estimate the frequency of chronic forms of chikungunya in the studied population
