Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of 9-valent extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli vaccine (ExPEC9V) compared to placebo in the prevention of the first invasive extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli disease (IED) event caused by ExPEC9V O-serotypes.
Diarrhoea is the one of the top five leading causes of death among children below the age of five years, globally. It is estimated that one in ten deaths in children under five is attributed to diarrhoea. Enterotoxigenic E.coli (ETEC) is one of the major causative agents of moderate-to-severe (MSD) diarrhoea among children both globally and in Zambia. The overall aim of this study is to document the burden of ETEC associated diarrhoea in Zambian children under 3 years of age.
The study consists of two arms: 1) intervention group using eggs as supplementary food given from 2nd trimester of pregnancy to birth, and 2) observational group of pregnant mothers. it aims to assess the effectiveness of improving dietary quality during pregnancy on the epigenetic and stunting related outcomes (growth and development) in infants, who will be followed up until 24 months old
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a live, oral, combined Shigella-ETEC vaccine candidate, known as strain CVD 1208S-122, is safe and immunogenic.
This is a prospective, observational, multicenter, case-control study.
Antibiotics are medicines used to avoid and treat bacterial infections. Antibiotic resistance is increasing to dangerous level globally.
Eligible subjects will be those age 18 years or more with mono-microbial blood stream infection caused by E. coli, Klebsiella species, Enterobacter species, Serratia species, Citrobacter species, or Proteus species, who have achieved adequate source control, are afebrile and hemodynamically stable for 48 hours or more and have received microbiologically active intravenous therapy for 3-5 days. The bloodstream isolate must be susceptible to amoxicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, fluoroquinolones, oral cephalosporins and/or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and the subject must be able to take oral medication directly or through a feeding tube. Exclusions criteria include allergy to all in-vitro active antimicrobials which are available in oral formulations, pregnancy, infective endocarditis, central nervous system infection, terminal illness with expected survival less than 14 days, absolute neutrophil count less than 1,000/ml and hematopoietic or solid organ transplantation within the preceding 90 days. Randomization will be stratified by urinary versus non-urinary source of bacteremia. The primary outcome is treatment failure at 90-days with 10% margin for non-inferiority in the 95% confidence interval around the difference in outcome between the two study groups.
The purpose of this study is to collect information from study participants who are hospitalized with an invasive disease caused by Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC). This information will be used to support the development of a new vaccine to prevent Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC). E. coli bacteria are a leading cause of serious infections. Especially adults older than 60 years have a higher risk of developing such infections. To date, there is no vaccine available to prevent E. coli infections. To support the development of a vaccine, more information about E. coli infections is first needed. This information will be collected in the current study, such as: - Medical information such as medical history, diagnosis, duration of hospitalization - Treatment and outcome of the Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) - Laboratory information
The purpose of this study is to collect information from study participants who develop an invasive disease caused by Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) during a period of 12 months. This information will be used to support the development of a new vaccine to prevent ExPEC infections.
The purpose of this study is to collect information from study participants who develop a serious infection caused by a bacterium called E.coli during a period of 12 months. This information will be used to support the development of a new vaccine to prevent E.coli infections.
