Filter by:Neurological manifestations of Cerebral toxoplasmosis or Toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE) in most advance stage HIV infected patients composed of fever, headache, alteration of consciousness with focal neurological signs/symptoms such as include hemiparesis, cranial nerve palsies, and ataxia. Generalised convulsions, in ¾ of patients. Moreover meningeal irritation sign or herniation sign may be presented as life threatening condition
The purpose of this study is to determine non-inferiority in seroconversion and to compare the safety and tolerability between ChimeriVax™-JE and JE-VAX® to the respective homologous virus strain and several wild types strains after completion of vaccination course.
The purpose of this study is to determine non-inferiority in seroconversion and to compare the safety and tolerability between ChimeriVaxTM-JE and JE-VAX to the respective homologous virus strain after completion of vaccination course.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether ChimeriVax™ JE vaccine (a new vaccine to be used for vaccination against Japanese encephalitis) is safe and well tolerated when compared to placebo (dummy) vaccination.
The purpose of this study it is to evalutate the persistence of antibodies after a booster immunisation with a TBE vaccine for adults
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and tolerability of TBE vaccines administered to children.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of rituximab in the treatment of chronic focal encephalitis.
This study will determine whether it is safe and effective to administer Japanese encephalitis (JE) live attenuated SA 14-14-2 vaccine at the same time as measles vaccine. If it is found to be safe, it will pave the way for use in routine vaccination programs. The hypothesis is that children who receive JE live attenuated SA 14-14-2 vaccine and measles vaccine at the same time are protected against these diseases at the same level as those who receive the vaccines at different intervals.
Japanese encephalitis is the single largest cause of viral encephalitis in the world today. It occurs in yearly post monsoon outbreaks in Uttar Pradesh and other parts of India and south east Asia. There is presently no antiviral drug of proven benefit for this illness and treatment is mostly supportive. The drug Ribavirin is already in the market in use for other indications. It has been found useful in West Nile encephalitis and various hemorrhagic fevers caused by related arboviruses. This is a double blind placebo of Ribavirin in Japanese encephalitis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such trial in the world. The study hypothesis is that children treated with ribavirin will be no different from those getting placebo in terms of mortality, length of hospital stay, days to return to consciousness and oral feeds, days to become afebrile and convulsion free and in 3 month sequelae rate.
The objective of this study is to assess the TBE antibody persistence approximately three years after administration of a TBE booster vaccination with FSME-IMMUN 0.25 ml Junior in children who received either 0.25 mL or 0.5 mL TicoVac for their primary vaccination series in Study 146A.
