Filter by:The XN-20, is a full blood count (FBC) analyser with an extended differential counting and flagging System. The XN-Series' individual channels allow real-time reflex analysis, and uses a two stage process to classify the white blood count (WBC) sub-populations and detect the presence of abnormal reactive and malignant cells. In regards to lymphocytes in the peripheral blood, the machine has the capacity to distinguish activated from non-activated T-cell subsets using a very small volume of EDTA sample (88uL) (including remnant sample from a standard full blood count) with results available in 1.5 minutes. It is a fully automated process and can be considered as an alternative rapid flow cytometry method. Objective of the SASA study: to investigate the signal pattern of white blood cells assessed using the XN-20 full blood count platform in patients with untreated viral infections i.e. HIV, HCV and HBV. The data from the analysis will be reviewed in conjunction with patient's demographic and clinical disease characteristics with the aim of detecting characteristic cell populations that can be used in the development of system flags for future studies.
This is a Phase 2, open label study (Study number VP-102-105; referred to as COVE-1 [Cantharidin and Occlusion in Verruca Epithelium]) to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of VP-102 treatment in subjects with common warts. This study has two Cohorts.
RV 507 was a Phase I, open-label study to examine the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of an investigational Marburg vaccine given by intramuscular (IM) injection to healthy adults. The study was a dose escalation of VRC-MARADC087-00-VP, a chimpanzee adenovirus serotype 3 (cAd3) vector vaccine, which encodes wild type (WT) glycoprotein (GP) from Marburgvirus.
Background: Currently prevalence of HPV infections for high risk strains among young women in Switzerland is unknown. In addition, since 2008 a vaccination program to prevent these infections has been implemented in a number of cantons, but its actual population impact is currently unknown. For now, HPV screening in Switzerland is mainly performed by gynecologists or during gynecological consultation at hospital. This method is certainly effective, but expensive; population coverage of screening is still insufficient. A whole segment of the target population does not participate in this screening especially young people of foreign origin, for various reasons: economic cost, no gynecological, and for other reasons. Several studies raise the effectiveness and efficiency of self-sampling to increase coverage of screening, and the rate of participation of non-participants. Through this study, the investigators evaluate effectiveness of this vaccination on the prevalence of HPV infections using HPV prevalence kit and assess evolution of infection and clearance of HPV virus during 5 years in a population of young unvaccinated and vaccinated women. Method: During the study, each participants will perform a vaginal swab sampling by auto to research HPV. These samples will be sent to a laboratory where HPV typing is done by PCR using the Anyplex ™ II technology. The study will focus on a sample of 400 young women. Participants must complete a questionnaire containing demographic questions and their HPV immunization status. Vaccination coverage expected in this population is about 50%. Depending on the state of vaccination, two different groups will be vaccinated vs unvaccinated (200 women per group). The cases of HPV infection are then calculated for each group and compared as a function of the status of vaccination. Statistical tests will be applied McNemar's test for comparison between the HPV prevalence rates between the 2 groups. Expected Results: This study will allow us to confirm the possibility of using self-sampling as a method of screening and monitoring of HPV infections in the general population, it will also enable us to document the effectiveness of HPV vaccination by comparing prevalence rate of HPV infections among a group of young girls vaccinated and not vaccine and assess evolution of infection and clearance of HPV virus.
This is a Phase I randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial in up to 25 males and non-pregnant females, 18-45 years old, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. This trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of a single intranasal dose of Sendai virus vectored Respiratory Syncytial Virus (SeVRSV) vaccine. The subjects will be randomized in a 4:1 ratio to receive SeVRSV vaccine at a dose of 1 x 10^7 EID50 or placebo (saline) intranasally. Study duration is approximately 11 months with subject participation duration approximately 6 months. The primary objectives are to: 1) assess the safety and reactogenicity of SeVRSV vaccine following receipt of one intranasal dose; 2) assess the ELISA antibody responses to SeV and to the RSV F protein at 28 days post receipt of one intranasal dose of SeVRSV vaccine; 3) assess the detection of vaccine virus from nasal washes at days 3, 5, 8 and 15 following receipt of one intranasal dose of SeVRSV vaccine.
ELVIS Kids is a parallel, open label, randomised controlled trial (RCT) of Hypertonic Saline (HS) nose drops (~2.6% NaCl) vs. standard care in children <7 years of age with symptoms of an Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of two doses of the HPIV3/ΔHNF/EbovZ GP vaccine candidate when administered intranasally in healthy adults.
This study is being conducted to determine whether MAU868 warrants further clinical development for the prevention of BKV infection in kidney transplant recipients.
A multicenter double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group comparative Phase II clinical study to assess safety, tolerability, efficacy and optimal dose of XC221 vs. placebo in patients with uncomplicated influenza or other ARVI during a 3-day treatment. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the difference in time before the onset of a sustained improvement in clinical symptoms according to the Modified Jackson Scale for ARVI and to determine the optimal dose of XC221 in the treatment of influenza and other ARVI.
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of generic sofosbuvir, an investigational anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) drug, combined with weight-adjusted ribavirin for treatment-naive Chinese adults chronically infected with genotype 2 HCV, the second most prevalent genotype in China. One hundred and thirty-two (132) subjects, including one hundred and twenty (120) non-cirrhotics and twelve (12) compensatory cirrhotics, were medicated with sofosbuvir 400 mg daily combined with weight-adjusted ribavirin 1000-1200 mg daily. The treatment course lasted 12 successive weeks and thereafter all the study participants entered into a 12-week treatment-free follow-up period.
