Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether Ingavirin® 90 mg once daily is effective and safe for the treatment of influenza and other laboratory confirmed acute respiratory viral infections in the course of standard therapy in patients 18-60 years old.
Progression of liver fibrosis in patients with hemoglobinopathies is strongly related to the severity of iron overload and the presence of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Effective iron chelation therapy and HCV infection eradication are efficacy to prevent liver complications. EASL and AASLD guidelines recommend interferon-free regimens for the treatment of HCV infection in patients with hemoglobinopathies. However, data regarding the use of direct-acting antiviral drugs (DAAs) in this patient population are very few This large, observational study evaluated the safety and efficacy of standard therapy with DAAs in a large Italian cohort of with hemoglobinopathies, chronic HCV infection and advanced liver fibrosis.
The aim of this study is to investigate the persistence of the vaccine induced immune response between 24 - 60 months following primary vaccination. The study consists of three cohorts: Cohort 1: volunteers from the Phase 1 study of the various prime/boost regimes with two viral vectored Ebola vaccines: Ad26-ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo vaccines Cohort 2: volunteers who have been vaccinated previously with Ebola vaccine r-VSV-ZEBOV Cohort 3: volunteers from the Phase 2 study of 3 prime/boost regimes with Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo vaccines (VAC52150EBL2001: EVOLVE).
This is an expanded access program (EAP) for eligible participants. This program is designed to provide access to glecaprevir/ pibrentasvir prior to approval by the local regulatory agency. Availability will depend on territory eligibility. Participating sites will be added as they apply for and are approved for the EAP. A medical doctor must decide whether the potential benefit outweighs the risk of receiving an investigational therapy based on the individual patient's medical history and program eligibility criteria.
Clearance of HCV infection requires early and multi-specific HLA class I restricted CD8+ T cell and class II restricted CD4+ T cell responses to both structural (Core) and non-structural HCV proteins (NS3, NS4A, NS5A, NS5B). Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that link innate and adaptive immune responses, and play a major role in priming, initiating, and sustaining strong anti-HCV T cell immune responses. The general objective of this study is to evaluate safety, feasibility and clinical efficacy of therapeutic vaccination in genotype 1 HCV patients using autologous DCs pulsed with recombinant HCV-antigens (Core and NS3). Expected effects: DC vaccination induces Core/NS3-specific immune response and reduces viral load in patients with chronic HCV-infection.
The primary objectives of this study are to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with or without cirrhosis, who did not achieve sustained viral response (SVR) after receiving prior treatment in a Gilead-sponsored HCV treatment study of direct-acting antiviral (DAA)-containing regimens.
Autoimmune diseases represent a heterogeneous group of pathologies whose etiopathogenic mechanisms are most often unknown. Autoimmune diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in young women and autoimmune thyroid diseases are the most common. Viral infections are the main environmental factors suspected of triggering autoimmune diseases. Several viruses are certainly involved, all of which are possibly capable of triggering an autoimmune response. However, the precise identification of the viruses involved remains to be established. It has been shown for the first time by the 2005 PHRC that enteroviral RNA is present in perioperative specimens of thyroid tissue. However, this case-control study did not show any difference between the thyroid group and the group other thyroid pathologies It has been recently published that Parvovirus is possibly involved in thyroiditis: the parvoviral genome is present in the thyroid tissue of Hashimoto thyroiditis operated and more precisely is present within the thyrocytes itself.
Background: Some blood and immune disorders can be helped with HSCT. This is allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The person who gets the stem cells has their immune system suppressed. This is done to help prevent their body from rejecting the transplant. During this time, the person is at a high risk to get viral infections. Researchers want to study the records of people who had transplants a few years ago. They want to look at how often certain viral complications happened. Objective: To study how often certain viral complications occurred after HSCT and what risks factors were involved. Eligibility: Records will be reviewed. No participants will be contacted. Design: Researchers will review medical records from the NIH Clinical Center. The records will be from people who had HSCT between 2010 and 2015 when they were between 4 and 85 years old. They already gave consent for their data to be studied. Data collected will include: Vital statistics like age and sex Viral status of the recipient and donor Reason for transplant Transplant details How the immune system recovered after transplant If the recipient got graft versus host disease Any infections Overall survival
This was a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of VRC-ZKADNA090-00-VP (Zika virus wildtype DNA vaccine) or placebo. In Part A, the primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the vaccine in different vaccination regimens. In Part B, the primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the vaccine compared to placebo.
Autoimmune thyroiditis and goitres are frequent pathologies.
