Filter by:To develop a real-time diagnostic technique with Ad sensor for Adenovirus detection, the investigators conduct a prospective clinical study. In comparison with results from direct sequencing of Adenovirus, the investigators evaluate the performance of Ad sensor , including reproducibility, sensitivity, specificity, and cross-reaction. The potential factors which may interfere with the results would be investigated. With such technique, the investigators hope to make early diagnosis and give Adenovirus patients early treatment to reduce the complications and case-fatality rate.
To assess the feasibility of donor-derived interferon (IFN)-γ positive select-ed virus-specific T-cells using the cytokine capture system® (CCS) and the safety of subsequent infusion in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with treatment refractory post-transplant viral infections. The CCS has already been successfully used in clinical studies in Germany and United Kingdom (UK).
In this study, investigators are trying to see if infusion of T cells (called CTLs) will prevent or treat cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) and adenovirus (AdV) reactivation or infection. Patients with blood cell cancer, other blood disease or a genetic disease may receive a stem cell transplant. After receiving transplant, they are at risk of infections until a new immune system to fight infections grows from the cord blood cells. In this study, investigators are trying to give special cells called T cells. These cells will try to fight viruses that can cause infection. Investigators will test to see if blood cells from donor that have been grown in a special way, can prevent patients from getting an infection. EBV, AdV and CMV are viruses that can cause serious life-threatening infections in patients who have weak immune systems after transplant. T lymphocytes can kill viral cells but normally there are not enough of them to kill all the virus infected cells after transplant. Some researcher have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more of them in the laboratory and then given them back to the person during a viral infection after a bone marrow transplant. Some of these studies have shown a positive therapeutic effect in patients receiving the CTLs after a viral infection in the post-transplant period. Investigators will grow these cells from donor in the laboratory in a way that will train them to recognize and remove viruses when the T cells are given after a transplant. Since most donors have previously been infected with EBV, CMV, and adenovirus, investigators are able to use their T cells that remember these viruses to grow the CTLs. However, they now also have a new way of growing CTLs from donors who have not been infected with CMV.
To explore the safety and efficiency of adenovirus-hepatocyte growth factor(Ad-HGF) treatment in ischemic heart disease.
In this study, investigators are trying to see if infusion of "m-CTLs" will prevent or treat cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) and adenovirus (AdV) reactivation or infection after cord blood transplant. Patients with blood cell cancer, other blood disease or a genetic disease may receive a cord blood transplant (UCBT) from an unrelated donor. After receiving a cord blood transplant, they are at risk of infections until a new immune system to fight infections grows from the cord blood cells. In this study, investigators are trying to give special cells from the cord blood called T cells. These cells will try to fight viruses that can cause infection. Investigators will test to see if blood cells from donor that have been grown in a special way, can prevent patients from getting an infection. EBV, AdV and CMV are viruses that can cause serious life-threatening infections in patients who have weak immune systems after transplant. T lymphocytes can kill viral cells but normally there are not enough of them to kill all the virus infected cells after transplant. Some researcher have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more of them in the laboratory and then given them back to the person during a viral infection after a bone marrow transplant. Some of these studies have shown a positive therapeutic effect in patients receiving the CTLs (specially trained T cells) after a viral infection in the post-transplant period. In this study we are trying to prevent or treat viral infections by given the CTLs soon after getting the umbilical cord blood transplant. With this study, investigators want to see if they can use a kind of white blood cell called T cells to prevent or treat AdV, EBV and CMV infection. Investigators will grow these T cells from the cord blood before transplant. These cells have been trained to attack adenovirus/EBV/CMV- infected cells and are called multivirus-specific cytotoxic (killer) T-cells or "m-CTL." Investigators would plan to give patients one dose of m-CTL any time from 30 to 364 days after your transplant. They have used T cells made in this way from the blood of donors to prevent infections in patients who are getting a bone marrow or blood stem cell transplant but this will be the first time investigators make them from cord blood.
The purpose of this study is to determine if TACE plus Recombinant Human Adenovirus Type 5 Injection will improve outcome in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) not amenable to surgery or local ablative therapy.
The investigators will evaluate the safety of a single endovenous infusion of ICOVIR5 in adults with locally advanced and metastatic melanoma. ICOVIR5 consists in a conditionally replicative or oncolytic adenovirus.
The purpose of this study is to study the use of ganciclovir gel 0.3% for treatment of conjunctivitis caused by adenovirus.
The primary purpose of the Adenovirus Vaccine Pregnancy Registry is to prospectively collect data concerning: 1. Pregnant women exposed to Adenovirus Type 4 and Type 7 Vaccine, Live, Oral, 2. Potential confounding factors, and 3. The outcome of these pregnancies. The secondary purpose of the Adenovirus Vaccine Pregnancy Registry is to evaluate the frequency of birth defects in prospectively enrolled pregnant women. This Registry is also designed to detect any unusual patterns of birth defects.
In the Netherlands a 2 center investigator-driven phase I/II clinical trial is initiated in June 2010 testing the oncolytic adenovirus Delta24-RGD to treat glioblastoma patients. The virus is administrated using convection-enhanced delivery by 4 catheters as delivery technique, targeting solid tumor as well as infiltrated tumor cells within the peri-tumoral brain. Patients will be enrolled in cohorts of 3 per dose-level. The dose levels to be explored are: 10^7, 10^8, 10^9, 10^10, 3*10^10 and 10^11 viral particles (vp). Once the MTD has been determined, or the study has reached the highest dose cohort, a further 6 or 9 patients will be enrolled at the MTD and evaluated for safety and preliminary signs of efficacy, such that in total at least 12 patients have received the MTD. The primary objective is to determine the safety and tolerability of Delta-24-RGD administered by CED to the tumor and the surrounding infiltrated brain in patients with recurrent GBM. Secondary objectives are to determine the Progression Free Survival (PFS), Overall Survival (OS), and tumor response rate in patients with recurring tumors amenable for surgical resection and treated at the MTD. Cerebrospinal fluid as well as brain interstitial fluid by microdialysis next to the routinely collected samples of blood at various timepoints before, during and after virus infusion. Various neurodegenerative biomarkers as well as markers of immune response will be assessed in these samples. Furthermore extensive sampling and PCR analyses will be performed to evaluate distribution and shedding of the virus.
