Filter by:Develop a scalable approach for delivering water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) messages to households in areas with confirmed cholera patients in Dhaka, Bangladesh. This will be done by conducting formative research through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and intervention planning workshops with households in areas with confirmed cholera patients and government officials to identify perceptions of WASH behaviors and to inform the development of a mobile health intervention (mHealth) for this population. This intervention approach will then be piloted in a subset of households, and revised according to feedback. Then the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled of the refined mHealth intervention.
This study is to evaluate immune non-inferiority, safety and lot-to-lot consistency of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ in 1 to 40 years old healthy Nepalese participants. The investigators hypothesize that the simplified formulation is able to induce non-inferior immunogenicity compared to licensed OCV, Shanchol™.
The purpose of the study is to find out if individuals who received first and second dose of Oral Cholera Vaccine (OCV) in Lukanga Swamps, Central Province of Zambia have developed protection against future attacks to cholera. The investigators also want to investigate whether vitamin A deficiency and being HIV positive increases the chances of suffering from cholera.
This trial was designed to assess safety and preliminary efficacy of oral doses of iOWH032 on diarrhea output and clinical symptoms after a cholera challenge in healthy adult participants.
The Cholera Hospital Based Intervention for 7 Days (CHoBI7) randomized controlled trial for transition to scale aimed to: (1) Develop and evaluate scalable approaches to integrate the CHoBI7 intervention into the services provided for hospitalized diarrhea patients at health facilities in Bangladesh; and (2) Evaluate the ability of the CHoBI7 intervention to lead to a sustained uptake of the promoted hand washing with soap and water treatment behaviors and significant reductions in diarrheal disease over time.
Assessment of the immunogenicity and safety of immunization against cholera in children with inflammatory bowel disease.
The primary aim of this project is to determine changes in the vibriocidal geometric mean titers (GMT) in subjects who receive the second dose of oral cholera vaccine (OCV) at different intervals: 2 weeks, 6 months, or 11 months following the first dose of vaccine. Secondary aims include a) vibriocidal antibody response rates in subjects who receive OCV at 2 weeks, 6 months, or 11 months following the first dose of vaccine, b) age specific serum vibriocidal GMTs following the second dose among participants given the second dose of OCV at intervals of 2 weeks, 6 months, or 11 months following the first dose of vaccine, c) GMT and antibody response rates of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and Immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as measured by ELISA following the second dose among participants given the second dose of OCV at intervals of 2 weeks, 6 months, or 11 months following the first dose of vaccine. The hypothesis is that the vibriocidal GMT following the second dose, when given after 6 or 12 months will not be inferior to the response when the second dose is given according to the standard interval of two weeks.
Cholera is a life-threatening disease if prompt actions are not taken. The most recent estimates of the global burden of cholera estimate that there are more than 1.3 billion people at risk. Of which, 2.86 million (range: 1.3-4.0 million) will contract cholera and 95,000 (21,000-143,000) will die each year. A safe, effective, and affordable killed whole-cell oral cholera vaccine (OCV) is now being used widely to prevent cholera in areas at risk. This regimen demonstrated 65% efficacy retained for at least 3 years and even up to 5 years in an endemic setting. The primary aim of this project is to determine changes in the vibriocidal geometric mean titers (GMT) in subjects who receive the second dose of oral cholera vaccine (OCV) at different intervals: 2 weeks, or 6 months following the first dose of vaccine. Secondary aims include a) vibriocidal antibody response rates in subjects who receive OCV at 2 weeks or 6 months following the first dose of vaccine, b) age specific serum vibriocidal GMTs following the second dose among participants given the second dose of OCV at intervals of 2 weeks or 6 months following the first dose of vaccine, c) GMT and antibody response rates of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and Immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-lipopolysaccharide (anti-LPS) as measured by ELISA following the second dose among participants given the second dose of OCV at intervals of 2 weeks or 6 months following the first dose of vaccine. Our hypothesis is that the vibriocidal GMT following the second dose, when given after 6 months will not be inferior to the response when the second dose is given according to the standard interval of two weeks.
Cholera is an acute enteric infectious disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholera, leading to watery diarrhea and loss of fluids from the small intestines. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that up to 4.3 million cholera cases annually with more than 100,000 of them result in death in worldwide. Cholera is mainly caused by the O1 or O139 serogroups of V. cholera. Vaccination has been shown to be a cost‒effective, more immediate option for cholera control and prevention. Injectable vaccine is not recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) mainly because of its limited efficacy and short duration of protection. However, the inactivated whole-cell, bivalent O1 and O139 cholera vaccine have provided evidence of substantial protective efficacy. With the goal of making an ideal low-cost OCV that could be used in cholera-endemic countries, a phase I trial was conducted to estimate safety of the oral O1 / O139 cholera vaccine (enteric capsules).
VAXCHORA (Cholera Vaccine, Live, Oral) is a vaccine indicated for active immunization against disease caused by Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1. VAXCHORA is approved for use in adults 18 through 64 years of age travelling to cholera-affected areas. The primary goals of this Phase 4 study are to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of VAXCHORA (1 x 10e9 cfu/dose) in children ages 2 years to <18 years of age in developed countries.
