This trial has two parts. Part A and Part B. Due to changes in the overall clinical development plan, Part B will no longer be conducted. The objectives originally described for Part B have been implemented in the ongoing development via a pivotal Phase I/II/III trial BNT162-02/C4591001 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT: 04368728). Part A is for dose ranging of four different vaccines (BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2) which will be undertaken with dose escalation and de-escalation plus the evaluation of interim dose levels. It also includes dose ranging in older participants. The vaccines BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2 will be administered using a Prime/Boost (P/B) regimen. The vaccine BNT162c2 will also be administered using a Single dose (SD) regimen. Three additional cohorts aged from 18 to 85 years receiving BNT162b2 only. BNT162b2 has entered a Phase II/III evaluation of efficacy, with the intent to support an application for marketing authorization. The dosing regimen under investigation is two BNT162b2 doses given ~21 d apart.
This original study will assess the impact of the coronavirus health crisis on the management of patients undergoing medical treatment for cancer, in particularly on the modification of the hospital organization. It will also provide a record of the progress of patients who will have been treated during the epidemic period and infected by the virus. We will also assess the psychological impact of the pandemic in patients but also in caregivers
This study is a Phase 1 / 2 trial to determine the safety and efficacy of CYNK-001, an immunotherapy containing Natural Killer (NK) cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded, in patients with moderate COVID-19 disease.
The aim of this study is to report our experience with ceftolozane-tazobactam and to evaluate its safety and efficacy in the treatment of ICU dependent nosocomial respiratory tract infections due to extensively drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Different dosing regimes of ceftalozane-tazobactam is evaluated and compared to the standard therapy of Colomycin.
The trial is designed as a phase III, double-blind, multicenter, randomized, single administration, active-controlled, parallel-group design with two groups of newborn infants receiving either VPM1002 or BCG SII (1:1 allocation) to assess the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of VPM1002 against Mtb infection.
This is a multi-centre population-based follow-up study for all 504 patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19. This study establishes a standardized and structured clinical database to provide complete and multidimensional clinical diagnosis and treatment data of novel coronavirus pneumonia, which also support future epidemiological, infectious disease study and patients' prognosis, by collecting clinical data and the related data of patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia in Southern Zhejiang province.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the use of viral specific T-lymphocytes (VSTs) to treat viral infections that may happen after solid organ transplant (SOT). VSTs are cells specially designed to fight viral infections that may happen after a solid organ transplant. These cells are created from a blood sample collected from the study participant. Solid organ transplant and the use of immunosuppressive medications reduces the body's ability to fight infections. Viral infections are a common problem after transplant and can cause significant complications. Reduction of immunosuppression may put the organ at risk of rejection. Moreover, treatment of viral infections is expensive and time consuming, with families often administering prolonged treatments with intravenous anti-viral medications, or patients requiring prolonged admissions to the hospital. The medicines can also have side effects like damage to the kidneys or reduction in the blood counts, so in this study the investigators are trying to find a better way to treat these infections and minimize complications.
The central hypothesis of this clinical trial is that, in extremely preterm infants, protein-enriched human milk diets compared to usual human milk diets during the first 2 weeks after birth increase fat-free mass (FFM)-for-age Z scores and promote maturation of the gut microbiome at term corrected age.
Thousands of healthcare workers have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 and contracted COVID-19 despite their best efforts to prevent contamination. No proven vaccine is available to protect healthcare workers against SARS-CoV-2. This study will enroll 470 healthcare professionals dedicated to care for patients with proven SARS-CoV-2 infection. Subjects will be randomized either in the observational (control) group or in the inhaled nitric oxide group. All personnel will observe measures on strict precaution in accordance with WHO and the CDC regulations.
