Filter by:This is an epidemiological, retrospective and observational study, by reviewing clinical histories, of children hospitalized for influenza virus infection, their comorbidities and the treatments that have been performed
Part 1 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. It will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple orally administered doses of EDP-514 in healthy adult subjects. Part 2 is randomized, double -blind, placebo-controlled study including subjects with Hepatitis B Virus. It will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of 28 Days of orally administered doses of EDP-514 in nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NUC)-Suppressed Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection
This study measures the prevalence of undiagnosed hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in HIV-negative men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM) visiting the sexual health clinics of public health services (in dutch: gemeentelijke gezondheidsdienst, GGD), in order to evaluate if systematic screening for HCV of HIV-negative MSM attending sexual health clinics in the Netherlands is needed.
This study was to assess the safety and efficacy of Seraprevir in combination with sofosbuvir administered for 12 weeks in patients with Hepatitis C (HCV) genotype1. Efficacy was assessed by the rate of sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the discontinuation of therapy (SVR12).
Clinical pneumonia is a leading cause of pediatric hospitalization. The etiology is generally bacterial or viral. Prompt and optimal treatment of pneumonia is critical to reduce mortality. However, adequate pneumonia management is hampered by: a) the lack of a diagnostic tool that can be used at point-of-care (POC) and promptly and accurately allow the diagnosis of bacterial disease and b) lack of a prognostic POC test to help triage children in need of intensive assistance. Antibiotic therapy is frequently overprescribed as a result of suspected bacterial infections resulting in development of antibiotic resistance. Conversely, in malaria-endemic areas, antibiotics may also be "underprescribed" and children with bacterial pneumonia sent home without antibiotic therapy, when the clinical pneumonia is mistakenly attributed to a co-existing malaria infection. The investigators previously identified combinations of protein with 96% sensitivity and 86% specificity for detecting bacterial disease in Mozambican children with clinical pneumonia. The investigators' prior work showed that it is possible to identify biosignatures for diagnosis and prognosis using few proteins. Recently, other authors also identified different accurate biosignatures (e.g., IP-10, TRAIL and CRP). In this study, the investigators propose to validate and improve upon previous biosignatures by testing prior combinations and seeking novel combinations of markers in 900 pediatric inpatients aged 2 months to 5 years with clinical pneumonia in The Gambia. The investigators will also use alternative case criteria and seek diagnostic and prognostic combination of markers. This study will be conducted in Basse, rural Gambia, in two hospitals associated with the Medical Research Council Unity The Gambia (MRCG). Approximately 900 pediatric patients with clinical pneumonia aged 2 months to 5 years of age will be enrolled. Patients will undergo standard of care test and will have blood proteins measured through Luminex®-based immunoassays. Results of this study may ultimately support future development of an accurate point-of-care test for bacterial disease to guide clinicians in choices of treatment and to assist in the prioritization of intensive care in resource-limited settings.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of nasal theophylline irrigation in treating smell loss related to a viral respiratory infection. Half the participants will undergo nasal theophylline irrigation treatment while the other half will undergo placebo nasal irrigation with saline alone. All participants will have their sense of smell tested before and after 6 weeks of treatment. All participants will also be regularly asked about any potential side effects related to treatment. In addition, the first 10 participants will have their blood drawn to measure their theophylline level after 1 week of starting treatment to ensure it is not abnormally elevated.
The purpose of this study is to establish the dose-response relationship for antiviral activity of 3 dose levels of JNJ-73763989+nucleos(t)ide analog (NA) and to evaluate the efficacy of combination regimens of JNJ-73763989+NA (with and without JNJ-56136379) and of JNJ-56136379+NA.
This is a Phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to determine the dose regimen, safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VP-102 in subjects with External Genital Warts (EGW). This study is divided into two parts (Part A and Part B). Increasing durations of skin exposure to study drug (VP-102 or placebo) will be evaluated in three treatment groups prior to progressing to enrollment in Part B. Part A & B will enroll a approximately 108 subjects completing 4 treatment applications every 21 days and continuing with follow-up assessments at Day 84, 112 and 147.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MEDI8897 compared to palivizumab when administered to preterm infants entering their first RSV season and children with chronic lung disease (CLD) and congenital heart disease (CHD) entering their first and second RSV season.
The objective of this study is to carry out a Micro-elimination program for HCV infection in a vulnerable population (people sentenced to non-custodial sentences). This group shares certain peculiarities with the prison population (vulnerability, addictions, mental disorders, etc.), is three times higher than the imprisoned population, and is regularly attended by Social Insertion Centers (CIS) in Spain. An additional objective is to link these people with the specific plans of the Government of Cantabria (Chronicity Plan, Care for Serious Mental Disorders, Harm Reduction Programs and the Center for Attention to Drug Addicts) as well as the Extended Bridge Program for Penitentiary Institutions, implementing the figure of a Navigator (a specialized professional in charge of helping subjects overcome barriers). It is an observational study based on the screening of disease in accordance with the recommendations of the health authorities. Once detected, patients will be referred to the corresponding specialized care following the usual clinical practice.
