Filter by:The trial aims to evaluate role of metabolic factors including systemic 25-OH D and diabetes in the adaptive immune response (haemagluttination inhibition titer) to influenza vaccine in the elderly. The influenza vaccine administered in this study will be licensed trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine. Elderly who are age above 65 including those with co-morbidities such as diabetes mellitus will be included. The study has its inclusion and exclusion criteria to determine eligibility for participation.
Title: An adaptive study of the pharmacokinetics of favipiravir in patients with severe influenza Study Design: An open label, single group assignment, adaptive study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of favipiravir in adult patients with severe influenza. In the first stage, participants will receive favipiravir 1600mg BID on day 1, followed by favipiravir 600mg BID for 9 days. If the proportion of patients with a minimum observed plasma trough concentration above the MEC (20μg/ml) at all measured time points after the second dose is less than 80% then a second patient cohort will be recruited and will receive favipiravir 1800mg BID on day 1, followed by favipiravir 800mg BID for 9 days. Intervention: The 1st stage: 1600mg BID on day 1, followed with 600mg BID for 9 days. Sample size: 15 The 2nd stage: 1800mg BID on day 1, followed with 800mg BID for 9 days. Sample size: 15 Population: Males and females aged 18 years or older admitted to hospital with a positive PCR test for influenza and a PaO2/FiO2≤300mmHg or/and on mechanical ventilation for severe lung infection on admission. Sample size 15 or 30 severe influenza patients Research hypothesis The administration of oral favipiravir at either 1600mg/600mg BID or 1800/800mg BID will result in ≥ 80% patients achieving a minimum observed plasma trough concentration above the MEC (20μg/ml) at all measured time points after the second dose. Phase: Phase 2a, PK, safety and feasibility study. Description of Study Agent: Favipiravir (T-705) a viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitor. Study Duration: 1 year Participant Duration: 38 days
Rationale and Background: Since 2013, Butantan Institute has been performing passive pharmacovigilance activities related to its triavalent, fragmented and inactivated vaccine (IB TIV). Objetive: To conduct an active surveillance study focusing on the elderly and health care professionals as part of Butantan pharmacovigilance plan, while passive surveillance activities will continue. The pharmacovigilance plan, via active surveillance, is being implemented in response to WHO requirements for pre-qualification of IB TIV.
Study the incidence and outcome of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in ICU patients with severe influenza and in influenza-negative control patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia
The aim of the study is to to assess the immunogenicity and safety of a quadrivalent influenza vaccine in a multi-dose presentation compared to a quadrivalent influenza vaccine in single-dose presentation, in children aged 6 months to 17 years.
The study is aim to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety with two groups of participants who will received a seasonal trivalent split, inactivated influenza vaccine (A/H1N1; A/H3N2 and B) or an active comparator (licensed influenza vaccine
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and virologic benefit of pimodivir in combination with Standard-of-Care (SOC) treatment compared to placebo in combination with SOC treatment.
The objective of this study is to deliver proof of concept that antifungal prophylaxis can reduce the incidence of Influenza Associated Aspergillosis (IAA) in ICU (intensive care unit) patients with severe influenza. The investigators will perform an interventional non-blinded randomized controlled multicentric proof-of-concept study in patients with severe influenza admitted to the ICU. Patients will be randomized to the posaconazole prophylaxis group or to the SOC (standard of care) group. Oseltamivir will be started at the discretion of the investigator. Patients in the posaconazole group will receive posaconazole prophylaxis for 7 days. addendum: pharmacokinetics of posaconazole as prophylaxis for invasive fungal disease on ICU
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and virologic benefit of pimodivir in combination with Standard-of-Care (SOC) treatment compared to placebo in combination with SOC treatment.
The aim of this study is to investigate the immunogenicity and safety of the inactivated whole-virion vaccine for teenagers and adults. The investigators will test the vaccine in participants aged 12-60 years, for a randomized, blind, placebo-controlled, age-stratified clinical study. The investigators designed three dosage groups: 7.5 μg,15 μg and 30 μg of hemagglutinin antigen. According to the age of the subjects, Each group was divided into different age subgroups. Phosphate buffer solution and Aluminum hydroxide adjuvant as placebo controls were both set up in the subgroups.Participants will receive 2 doses of vaccine at 21-day intervals.Safety up to 6 months and changes in hemagglutinin inhibition (HI) titers at 21 days after each vaccination were determined.
