Filter by:Understudied drugs will be administered to children per standard of care as prescribed by their treating caregiver and only biological sample collection during the time of drug administration will be involved. A total of approximately 7000 children aged <21 years who are receiving these drugs for standard of care will be enrolled and will be followed for up a maximum of 90 days. The goal of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of understudied drugs for which specific dosing recommendations and safety data are lacking. The prescribing of drugs to children will not be part of this protocol. Taking advantage of procedures done as part of routine medical care (i.e. blood draws) this study will serve as a tool to better understand drug exposure in children receiving these drugs per standard of care. The data collected through this initiative will also provide valuable pharmacokinetic and dosing information of drugs in different pediatric age groups as well as special pediatric populations (i.e. obese).
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin disorder characterized by recurrent viral skin infections. A small subset of patients with AD suffer from disseminated viral infections, e.g., eczema herpeticum (ADEH+), after herpes simplex infection (HSV) or eczema vaccinatum (EV) after smallpox vaccination. Interferon gamma (IFNγ) plays a critical role in the innate and acquired immune responses by activating macrophages, enhancing natural killer cell activation, and promoting T cell differentiation, as well as regulating B cell isotype switching to immunoglobulin (Ig) G2a. Recent studies have demonstrated that IFNγ generation was significantly decreased after stimulation with HSV ex vivo. The purpose of this study is to determine if deficient IFNγ induction leads to susceptibility to HSV infection in ADEH+ patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of intravaginal 1% tenofovir gel in preventing Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) infection and Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-2) infection in sexually active women.
Demonstrate the safety and efficacy of NB-001 in subjects with recurrent herpes labialis (RHL).
The purpose of this study is to determine if a new treatment is effective for the treatment of recurrent symptomatic oral herpes virus infections.
The purpose of this study is to determine the seroprevalence of Hepatitis A Virus (HAV), Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex (HSV) and Bordetella pertussis (BP)infections in Mexico.
To determine the efficacy of Famvir 500mg bd as suppressive antiviral therapy for acute genital Herpes simplex virus (HSV) outbreaks in HIV subjects.
The purposes of this study are: - To determine the accuracy of commercially available serologic assays in diagnosing patients with herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2); - To assess the sensitivity and specificity of the commerical assays using HSV-2 western blot as the "gold standard" in a diverse patient population; - To develop testing strategies and recommendations for screening asymptomatic populations for HSV-2.
This study intends to test the efficacy of the TheraNeem Lip Therapy balm for Herpes Simplex. The study will include a total of 5 people.
There has been an increase in incidence in sexually transmitted infections in HIV infected patients in the last years. In this study the investigators will prospectively evaluate the prevalence of symptomatic and asymptomatic infections with N. gonorrhea and Ch. trachomatis as well as the seroprevalence of Herpes simplex Type 2 infection in HIV-infected patients attending the clinic for infectious diseases at the Berne University Hospital. In addition, participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire on sexual behaviour and sexual health. Study hypothesis: STI prevalence is high in certain risk-groups to justify screening in regular intervals.
