Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate immunogenicity and safety of Measles Virus-Chikungunya (MV-CHIK) vaccine in different dose regimens, 28 days after one or two vaccinations.
Study setting: Medellin and Bello municipalities, Colombia Health condition(s) studied: Dengue, Zika and chikungunya virus infection Intervention: Deployment of Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in Medellin and Bello. Study design: 1. An interrupted time-series analysis utilising routine disease surveillance data collected by the Medellín and Bello Health Secretariats, which aims to compare incidence of dengue, chikungunya and Zika pre- and post-Wolbachia release. 2. A test-negative study using an incident case-control design, which aims to quantify the reduction in disease incidence among people living within a Wolbachia-treated zone compared with an untreated zone that has a similar dengue risk profile at baseline.
The goal of this Phase 2 trial is to evaluate the immune response to and safety profile of various doses/formulations/and schedules of administration of PXVX0317 in healthy adults. Primary Objective: To assess the immune response to the vaccine Secondary Objectives: To assess the kinetics of the immune response to different doses/formulations/schedules To assess the persistence of immune responses to different doses/formulations/schedules To assess the effect of a booster dose of the vaccine Safety Objective: To assess local and systemic reactions to the vaccine and to describe the safety profile of the vaccine
This study is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase 1, placebo- controlled, and dose comparison trial to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and schedule of MV-CHIK. Two dosage levels and 3 immunization schedules will be evaluated. This study will enroll up to 180 healthy subjects aged 18 to 45 years.Study duration is approximately 22 months. Subject participation duration is approximately 8-13 months. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 5 x 10^4 TCID50 and 5 x 10^5 TCID50 MV-CHIK and placebo following two consecutive intramuscular injections and to assess the CHIKV serum plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) antibody responses to 5 x 10^4 TCID50, 5 x 10^5 TCID50 of MV-CHIK or placebo on day 29 following the first dose.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of a novel vaccine against Chikungunya virus after one or two vaccinations by comparison of two different dose levels.
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a 2-injection vaccine Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) virus-like particle vaccine (CHIKV VLP) in healthy adults.
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
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has been detected in humans in the Caribbean area for the first time in November 2013 (St-Martin Island). By February 2014, the virus had spread to several other Caribbean islands as well as French Guyana, South America. During the outbreak of Chikungunya that affected the Reunion island in 2005/2006, it was observed that the neonatal forms of infections acquired by mother to child transmission during childbirth, were not the exception and were critical. Mother-to-child transmission occurs when the mother is viremic at the time of delivery. The mean duration of viremia after the onset of first clinical symptoms is six days. The rate of mother-to-child transmission is 50%. All neonates contaminated during labor and delivery present with a symptomatic disease and the rate of severe forms is about 50%, primarily due to damage of the central nervous system, often leaving permanent damage (seizures, cerebral palsy).Due to the severity of Chikungunya in neonates and the burden of cerebral palsy, it is imperative to identify a safe and effective preventive and/or curative intervention. Human polyvalent immunoglobulins purified from plasma samples obtained from Chikungunya-convalescent donors exhibit a potent neutralizing activity in vitro. They were evaluated for their preventive and curative effects in a neonatal mouse model of CHIKV infection. After administration of a lethal dose of CHIKV, all neonatal mice that had received immunoglobulins survived while all control animals that had received non hyperimmune immunoglobulins died. In humans, specific human immunoglobulins proved to be effective and safe in neonates born to hepatitis B viremic mothers. Hypothesis : The investigators hypothesize that the administration of anti-CHIKV hyperimmune human intravenous immunoglobulins to neonates exposed to a high risk of severe form of Chikungunya infection is safe enough to justify its evaluation in an open non randomized trial aimed to confirm the safety and preliminary assess the efficacy of this intervention.
