This study aims to determine the efficacy of montelukast in reducing the incidence of dengue warning signs in adult dengue patients.
World Health Organisation (WHO) has identified Dengue as the fastest spreading mosquito-borne disease in the world. This study follows on from the National Medical Research Council STOP Dengue Translational and Clinical Research flagship grant. Differential serum concentrations of alpha2-macroglobulin (A2M), chymase (CMA1) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) were discovered to accurately identify dengue patients who will develop severe disease from those who will not, prior to the development of severe complications. By identifying patients at risk of developing severe disease in advance, these patients can be monitored more closely to provide more timely fluid interventions, and hopefully further reduce fatality rate. At the same time, more patients who are not at risk can be managed as outpatients to further minimize unnecessary hospitalization costs and wastage of healthcare resources. After discovery of the Dengue prognostic biomarkers, a multivariate logistic regression predictive model was built from a small retrospective derivative cohort (50 subjects), followed by validation using a small prospective validation cohort (50 subjects). The model had a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve AUC (area under the curve) of 0.944, and a sensitivity and specificity of 90% and 91% during validation, respectively. The premise of this study is to validate our observations in a larger prospective cohort (200 subjects). At the same time, we would like to better understand the characteristics of the Dengue prognostic biomarkers, especially whether there are situations in which the biomarkers cannot predict Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF)/ Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) and/or Severe Dengue (SD) and how the biomarkers can further improve the cost-effectiveness of the clinical management of Dengue patients.
Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS) are among the leading causes of pediatric hospitalization in Asia.Mortality rates range from 1% at centres experienced in fluid resuscitation, to upto 44% in established shock.The mainstay of DSS treatment is prompt, vigorous fluid resuscitation with isotonic crystalloid solutions, followed by plasma or colloid solutions for profound or continuing shock. However, this administration is often associated with fluid overload and induces edema in these patients. Hence, we planned a parallel, randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of solution containing half molar sodium lactate (Totilac™) with standard treatment(isotonic crystalloid Ringer's Lactate) in pediatric Dengue Shock Syndrome patients, using plasma soluble Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule(sVCAM-1) levels as an indicator. Hypertonic solutions restore hemodynamic status rapidly with increased cardiac performance and improved tissue perfusion. This is obtained with much smaller volumes.We plan to assess the efficacy and safety of hypertonic sodium lactate in resuscitation of DHF/DSS patients.
Infection with dengue viruses is one of the leading causes of hospitalization and death in children in several tropical Asian counties. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that these viruses are responsible for more than 50 million cases of dengue fever (DF) and approximately 0.5 million cases of the more severe disease, dengue hemorrhagic fever/ shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) annually. Because dengue viruses are endemic in most tropical and subtropical regions, keeping more than 2 billion persons at risk for acquiring dengue, the WHO has made development of a dengue vaccine a top priority. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a candidate DEN4 vaccine aimed at preventing infection with dengue virus serotype 4.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of two different formulations of an investigational dengue vaccine (T-DEN) against a placebo vaccine when two doses are given six months apart to adults and children.
