Filter by:On-line hemodiafiltration (HDF) clears more azotaemic toxins compared to high-flux hemodialysis (HD). The response to vaccination is impaired in dialysis patients. We aimed to study the immune responses to influenza vaccine in dialysis patients treated by HDF vs. HD.
A Phase 3, randomized, observer-blinded, active-controlled trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of a recombinant quadrivalent nanoparticle influenza vaccine with Matrix-M1 adjuvant (NanoFlu) compared with a licensed quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine in adults ≥ 65 years of age. Both vaccines were formulated with the 4 influenza strains recommended for the 2019-20 Northern hemisphere influenza season. 2654 subjects were enrolled and randomized into 1 of 2 treatment groups to receive either NanoFlu or active comparator. Subjects were followed for approximately 1 year following injection; with primary immunogenicity analyses based on Day 28 sera. This trial was conducted in the United States at approximately 19 clinical sites.
Intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV; trade name FluMist/Fluenz-Tetra, manufactured by AstraZeneca/Medimmune) is the standard influenza vaccine given to children aged 2-17 years of age in the UK. It is also licensed to be given to adults up to the age of 49 years in the USA. The systems biology of the human blood response to influenza vaccines has been studied in great detail, but there is a paramount need to study innate and specific, soluble and cellular immune responses at the nasal mucosal site of influenza infection. In this way this study aims to determine correlates of efficacy and vaccine take in serum and nasal mucosal lining fluid (MLF).
This trial is taking place in Los Angeles, CA among patients from primary care practices within the UCLA Health System. Despite the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendation in 2010 that all people above 6 months of age should receive an annual flu vaccine, vaccination rates remain low. The investigators will assess the effectiveness of message-framing (gain-framed, loss-framed messages, no messages), as well as the effectiveness of a pre-commitment prompt (pre-commitment prompt, no prompt) asking about a patient's intention to get the influenza vaccination, using a 3 x 2 factorial design.
The primary objective of the study was to provide sera (collected from participants before vaccination [Blood Sample 1] and after final vaccination [Blood Sample 2]) to the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) for further analysis by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support formulation recommendations for subsequent influenza vaccines.
This is a non-controlled, open-label, single-center, dose-escalation study to determine the safety, infectivity, and immune responses elicited from of the potential influenza virus challenge strain. The study objective is to determine the dose with the optimal safety profile and infectivity rate of the viral challenge strain in healthy volunteers for use in subsequent challenge intervention studies to test potential influenza vaccines and/or therapeutics.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antibody response to each of the four influenza vaccine strains included in the study vaccine, as measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) at 4 weeks after the last dose of the study vaccine in young subjects aged between 3 years old and 17 years old.
This study aims to study the barriers to flu vaccination among at-risk people at the Primary Health Care level in order to increase the vaccination rates as recommended by the World Health Organization.
Subjects will be recruited and divided into 3 groups: 1. Experimental Group (378 subjects): combined immunization of EV71 vaccine and influenza vaccine; 2. Control Group A (378 subjects): EV71 vaccine only; 3. Control Group B (378 subjects): influenza vaccine only; All blood samples will be collected before and one month after vaccinatioin. The immunogenicity and safety of both experimental and control groups will be compared and the data be analyzed.
Invasive tracheobronchial aspergillosis (ITBA) is an uncommon, but severe clinical form of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis (IPA) in which the fungal infection is entirely or predominantly confined to the tracheobronchial tree. In view of the limited data concerning critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with severe influenza associated with ITBA, the investigators decided to evaluate the differences between the clinical presentations of two invasive infections: ITBA and IPA without tracheobronchial involvement (No ITBA).
