Filter by:This is a single-group, open-label, multi-site study in pediatric participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, aged 4 weeks to <12 years and weighing <45 kg, who are treatment-naive (TN) or have been virologically suppressed (VS) on stable combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) for ≥3 months with no history of treatment failure. The first primary objective is to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of doravirine (DOR) [MK-1439] when given in combination with 2 nucleoside/nucleotide analog reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) or as part of the fixed dose combination (FDC) of DOR/lamivudine (3TC)/tenofovir disproxil fumarate (TDF) in participants ≥6 to <12 years and weighing ≥14 to <45 kg. The second primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DOR when given with 2 NRTIs or as part of the FDC of DOR/3TC/TDF, in participants ≥6 to 12 years and weighing ≥14 to <45 kg, through Week 24.
Currently about 90 cases of infection in children are reported every year in pediatric intensive care, a disease considered to be the main cause of hospitalization of children. 16% of invasive pneumococcal infections are linked to a genetic abnormality in immunity. Herpetic encephalitis has become a model of genetic infectious disease, with new mutations identified in the TLR3 pathway. Severe infections are no longer the result of chance and can be the way to reveal a primary immune deficiency. In this context, the investigators propose to evaluate the incidence of hereditary immune deficiency after a systematic immunological screening in children admitted for a severe infection in pediatric intensive care unit (ICU).
This study will assess the relative safety, tolerability, and participant satisfaction in participants using the rapid manual push method with Cutaquig®. The hypothesis being that treatment with Cutaquig® by rapid manual push method will improve the safety, tolerability and patient satisfaction of participants with PID or SID. Cutaquig® by rapid push is already approved in Canada and has proven to be efficacious in preventing significant infection. However, relative safety, tolerability, and patient satisfaction have not been studied in these patients. The information gained from this study will improve the safety and tolerability knowledge database and will support the optimal use of Cutaquig® - thus benefitting both physicians and patients.
Background: During a transplant, blood stem cells from one person are given to someone else. The cells grow into the different cells that make up the immune system. This can cure people with certain immunodeficiencies. But transplant has many risks and complications. Objective: To see if stem cell transplant can be successfully performed in people with primary immunodeficiency disease and cure them. Eligibility: People ages 4-69 for whom a primary immunodeficiency (PID) or Primary Immune Regulatory Disorder (PIRD), has caused significant health problems and either standard management has not worked or there are no standard management options, along with their donors Design: Donors will be screened under protocol 01-C-0129. They will donate blood or bone marrow. Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests CT or PET scans Before transplant, participants will have dental and eye exams. They will have a bone marrow biopsy. For this, a needle will be inserted through the skin into the pelvis to remove marrow. Participants will be hospitalized before their transplant. They will have a central catheter put into a vein in their chest or neck. They will get medications through the catheter to prevent complications. Participants will get stem cells through the catheter. They will stay in the hospital for at least 4 weeks. They will give blood, urine, bone marrow, and stool samples. They may need blood transfusions. They may need more scans. They will take more medications. Participants will have visits on days 30, 60, 100, 180, and 360, and 24 months after the transplant. Then they will have visits once a year for about 5 years
A safety and efficacy clinical study of a lentiviral vector to transfer IL2RG complementary DNA to bone marrow stem cells in ten children with genetic diagnosed X-SCID（severe combined immune deficiency ）.The ten children will be followed for 3-5 years and be evaluated by clinical characteristics, vector marking (vector copy number per cell) in blood and bone marrow cells, immune reconstitution vector insertion-site patterns and so on.
This is a Phase II prospective trial to assess the rates of donor engraftment using reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for patients with primary immune deficiencies (PID), immune dysregulatory syndromes (IDS), and inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS).
BK cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) manufactured with the Miltenyi CliniMACS Prodigy Cytokine Capture System will be safe and effective in decreasing specific viral load in children, adolescents and young adults (CAYA) with refractory BK infection post Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AlloHSCT) or with primary immunodeficiencies (PID).
Antiretroviral therapy of the mother and of the newborn associated with alternative schemes of breastfeeding can reduce these transmission rates to 1%. The diagnosis of HIV infection in newborns is based on PCR for detection of viral genetic material, a procedure that is expensive and of complex logistics. Tests based on detection of antibodies are faster and cheaper but cannot distinguish infected child or maternal antibodies passed to the fetus through the placenta. Nevertheless, the so-called rapid tests have been implemented in the network of health services because of their simplicity and performance comparable to conventional tests. DPP HIV 1/2 test, produced by Bio-Manguinos/Fiocruz, usage is limited by the manufacturer to over 24 months of age children, though the guidelines control programs already recommend the use from 18 months in Brazil and 9 months in other countries. Data on the accuracy of the rapid test under 24 months of age are scarce. This proposal aims to assess the performance of rapid tests produced by Bio-Manguinhos in diagnostic protocols for HIV infection in children 9-24 months old, in order to obtain empirical data to support the current recommendations on rapid tests, particularly in countries with limited access to tests that require specialized laboratories. The validation of rapid HIV testing in other age groups is a requirement of the national regulatory authorities, and has important implications for programs to control HIV-AIDS in populations from countries with limited access to specialized laboratory resources. The use of the rapid test can also represent a significant reduction in costs, as it allows limiting the use of molecular tests to complex and expensive confirmation cases.
The analysis of a cohort of consecutive non-selected patients from the Strasbourg University Hospital, and therefore representative of the real life, will allow better identifying the risk factors for these infections (by comparison with a cohort of patient with similar conditions of immunosuppression and no infection) and improving the diagnosis and therapeutic management. The primary objective is to identify prognosis factors affecting survival in patients with opportunistic infections
RATIONALE: Following stem cell transplantation, a major risk is graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This occurs when donor immune cells that have been infused recognise the host's cells as 'foreign' and attack these cells. Prevention of GVHD relies upon depletion of donor immune T cells or drugs that block T cell function. However, these methods also increase the risk of life threatening infection. There is an important unmet need for better means of accelerating immune recovery following stem cell transplantation while avoiding GVHD. Pre-clinical studies have shown that infusion of donor CD62L- effector memory T cells (Tem) into the host improve immune recovery after allo-Stem Cell Transplant but do not cause GVHD. PURPOSE: This phase I dose escalation trial aims to determine the feasibility and safety of transfer of donor Tem following allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
