View clinical trials related to Haemophilus Infections.
Filter by:Haemophilus influenzae serotype a (Hia) has emerged as a leading cause of serious illness in Indigenous children in Canada and Alaska in recent decades. In hospital-based surveillance studies, Hia was the most common cause of invasive disease, resulting in morbidity or mortality after Haemophilus influenzae serotype b (Hib). Given the success of the Hib vaccine program and the pathophysiologic similarities between Hib and Hia, immunization is the obvious way to protect Indigenous children living in small and scattered communities. The Public Health Agency of Canada has been working with the National Research Council and other members of the Consortium, including the Canadian Immunization Research Network, McGill Interdisciplinary Initiative in Infection and Immunity, GlycoNet, the Hewitt Foundation, and Inventprise/InventVacc, to develop a Hia vaccine for prevention of this deadly infection. The engagement process initiated by NRC with Consortium members and representatives from Indigenous groups, particularly, has led to the current project plan. In this first-in-human study, we propose investigating the safety and immunogenicity of a novel glycoconjugate candidate vaccine that uses protein carrier CRM197 in healthy adults in the general population. The study will be conducted at the McGill University Health Center Vaccine Study Centre in Montreal and the Canadian Center for Vaccinology in Halifax. The findings of this Phase I study will be necessary to effectively move this potential vaccine solution further along the development continuum.
This is a single-center, randomized, active-controlled, parallel-design, double-blind, phase I study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of APV006 in healthy adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate immunogenicity and safety of different doses of candidate hexavalent vaccine in comparison to co-administration of Pentavalent vaccine and Poliomyelitis Vaccine (Inactivated) in separate injections at four weeks after completion of three-dose primary series at 6-10-14 weeks of age when administered to healthy infants and thereby to select the optimal dose of candidate vaccine(Stage 1) and to demonstrate lot-to-lot consistency of three lots of LBVD (Stage 2)
Trial purpose is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and reactogenicity of the Vaccine for the prevention of infections caused by Haemophilus Influenzae Type b in volunteers aged 18-50.
The main goal of this study is to compare the Haemophilus influenzae type b antibody response in American Indian / Alaska Native (AI/AN) infants to two licensed vaccines: Vaxelis and PedvaxHIB.
Faced with high rates of immunization drop-out, Uganda's immunization program requires innovative approaches to address this weakness. Building upon Uganda's growing mHealth infrastructure to pilot a scalable short message service (SMS) system to remind caregivers of their children's upcoming vaccination visits, it was hypothesized that the SMS intervention will increase immunization coverage in a cost-effective and affordable manner that would make it scalable. The study design was an investigator-blinded, multi-center, parallel groups randomized controlled trial with randomization occurring at the caregiver level in select health facilities of Arua District in Uganda. Enrollment took place at the time of Pentavalent 1 vaccination, and both arms included standard of care provided by the health worker. However, in the intervention arm, caregivers also received SMS text messages reminding them to return for their children's second and third doses of Pentavalent vaccine (four and eight weeks after the first dose of Pentavalent vaccine) and measles-containing vaccine (9 months of age). The primary outcome of interest is vaccination coverage at 12 months of age among children enrolled in the study and will be measured by comparing Penta3 and MCV coverage between arms. The study will also examine the SMS impact on timeliness of vaccine receipt, as it is hypothesized that those children receiving the SMS intervention will be more likely to have timely vaccination than those in the control group. The study will also assess caregiver acceptability and cost-effectiveness of the SMS intervention. In addition to assessing its impact on strengthening the immunization program, this intervention has implications for strengthening other programs of the health system through similar health messaging directed toward caregivers.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate immunogenicity and safety of three different doses of candidate hexvalent vaccine in comparison to co-administration of EupentaTM Inj. and Imovax® Polio in separate injections at four weeks after completion of three-dose primary series at 6-10-14 weeks of age when administered to healthy infants and thereby to select the optimal dose of candidate vaccine
A prospective, open-label, interventional phase IV study to assess the safety of EupentaTM Inj.{fully liquid pentavalent vaccine, Adsorbed Diphtheria-Tetanus-whole-cell Pertussis-Hepatitis B (rDNA [recombinant-deoxyribonucleic acid])-Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine}
Previous studies have shown that a small incentive can have a large impact on health behaviors like vaccinating children. New Incentives, an international non-governmental organization (NGO), aims to boost demand for immunization by offering cash incentives to caregivers who have their child vaccinated at a program clinic. In collaboration with New Incentives, IDinsight is conducting a study to see whether this approach will increase immunization in North West Nigeria. This study aims to investigate whether giving cash to caregivers in North West Nigeria who bring their infants to receive vaccination against common infections (tuberculosis, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, Haemophilus influenzae Type B (Hib), pneumococcal bacteria, measles, rotavirus, polio, yellow fever) increases the proportion of children who are immunized. The study's main hypothesis is that New Incentives' program will increase the percentage of children immunized with BCG, any PENTA, or Measles 1 by an average increase of at least 7-percentage points across all program clinics that share a similar profile to the clinics New Incentives will operate in at scale. The study is taking place in Jigawa, Katsina, and Zamfara States between August 2017 and January 2020.
This is a single-center, randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group, open-label, phase I study to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of single injection of LBVD or Eupenta co-administered with Imovax Polio in healthy adults.
