NCT ID: NCT06218368 Recruiting - Measles Clinical Trials

A Tool Kit to Improve Vaccine Confidence in the Philippines

Start date: January 31, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an educational toolkit in enhancing measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) and polio vaccine confidence in the Philippines. The toolkit contains four aspects: an introduction to MMR and polio vaccines, vaccine safety and efficacy, vaccination guidelines (including schedules and locations), and debunking myths and misconceptions. Presented as a 10-minute video and followed by reminder messages from health educators, the toolkit was developed in collaboration with International Care Ministries (ICM) health educators and translated into local dialects. Our toolkit will be embedded in a RCT called the Soap Opera Trial, which is designed and run by the ICM leveraging their community-based Transform Program. The standard Transform Program consists of 15 weeks of education sessions delivered by local health educators through traditional lectures in each community. The trial aims to evaluate the impact of a variation to their standard Transform Program, which uses aspirational videos to deliver education about food security, livelihood, and health. The soap opera to be shown in the video includes drama and plot twists similar to a typical television show but highlights lessons about income creation, health care, and resilience, which are key behaviors and outcomes that can help the poor lift themselves out of poverty. The ICM will conduct this RCT to assess the impact of these soap opera videos on outcomes such as aspirations about the future. A total of 180 communities participating in the Transform program will be randomly assigned to one of the two arms. In the intervention arm, the participants will receive our vaccine toolkit intervention (including educational video and reminding messages about MMR and polio vaccines) and 15 soap opera videos alongside standard Transform Program, while participants in the control arm will receive the standard Transform Program, in which the education sessions are delivered through lectures. The effectiveness of the toolkit will be evaluated by 1) the rate of MMR and polio vaccination among children of the Transform Program participants and 2) knowledge and attitudes towards these vaccines among the participants. Additionally, the relevance, applicability, and feasibility of the toolkit will be assessed using qualitative research methods, and cost-effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed.

Local and systemic symptoms and serious adverse events following immunzation were collected.

NCT ID: NCT05947864 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Transplantation, Hematopoietic Stem Cell

Monitoring of Measles-specific Immune Status in Adult Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients

MaRROwVacc
Start date: August 17, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Measles, a highly contagious disease, is potentially serious in adult allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) recipients. Because of the loss of immunity to vaccine preventable diseases after allo-HSCT, French Health Authorities (Haut Conseil de Santé Publique, HCSP) recommend (re)vaccination of all allo-HSCT recipients against measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) from 24 months post-transplant onwards, in the absence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and at least 3 months after cessation of all immunosuppressive treatments, irrespective of measles serostatus. Nevertheless, some French experts argue that systematic assessment of measles antibody titre is justified after allo-HSCT, prior to revaccination, in order to avoid "unnecessary" revaccination of allo-HSCT recipients who are still seropositive. At the international level, recommendations also vary: the ECIL group and IDSA advocate revaccination of measles seronegative patients only, while some American Hematology experts recommend not to base the decision of revaccination on the serological status, given the inevitable loss of antibodies and specific long-term immune memory in the absence of revaccination. Several obstacles to the application of the recommendations can therefore be identified: (i) the risk of vaccine-transmitted disease due to the live-attenuated nature of MMR, (ii) the lack of robust data on the immunogenicity and tolerability of the MMR vaccine in this particular population, and (iii) conflicting recommendations to guide the decision of revaccination. This study aims at answering the question of whether some allo-HSCT recipients may retain a measles-specific cellular immune memory at distance from their allo-HSCT.

NCT ID: NCT05894395 Recruiting - Measles Clinical Trials

NCT ID: NCT05860920 Not yet recruiting - Measles Clinical Trials

Clinical Diagnostic Performance Evaluation of a Measles Rapid Test in Senegal

Start date: July 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this study is to measure the accuracy of a new measles rapid test when used in clinical health centres in several regions of Senegal. The rapid test will be used to test patients for measles who attend the participating health centres with signs and symptoms suggestive of measles infection. The rapid test can be used with a drop of blood from a finger, or oral fluid sampled with a swab rubbed over the gums. The rapid test will be compared to the standard methods of diagnosis in the laboratory using blood samples and oral or throat samples taken for surveillance purposes. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. What is the accuracy of the rapid test when used with capillary blood (a drop of blood from the finger tip) in health centres by non-laboratory health professionals? 2. What is the accuracy of the rapid test when used with oral fluid by non-laboratory health professionals? In addition to measuring the accuracy of the test, data will also be collected on whether the test is easy and practical to use and how best to record the results.

NCT ID: NCT05803538 Not yet recruiting - Measles Clinical Trials

Participant Centered Active Surveillance for Adverse Event Following Measles Immunization in Gedeo Zone, Ethiopia, 2022. A Multi-center Open-label Randomized Control Trial

Start date: May 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction Participant centered active adverse event following immunization (AEFI) surveillance can offer real time vaccine safety data and help in signal detection. Evidence showed that it is still difficult to get AEFI from passive reporting in Ethiopia. Vast novel method of enhanced AEFI surveillance has been practiced globally. However, those methods had serious limitations including the requirement of high resource and expertise. Hence, there is a need to find the most flexible low cost and integrated AEFI surveillance system. To the best of our knowledge, there has no published research in Ethiopia which compare Participant diary, SMS, and telephone interview for the purpose of active AEFI surveillance. Objective: To assess participant centered active adverse event surveillance following measles immunization at Gedeo Zone health facilities, Ethiopia. Method: An open randomized trial will be employed from October 1, 2022- December 1, 2023, at Gedio Zone health facilities. All parents, care givers/guardians whose child receive vaccine during the study period in the study site will be included in the study. A total of 391participants will be randomized to SMS, telephone interview or diary card group using random number generator on Excel. Every participant will be contacted on day seven to request them whether they experience any AEFI. Differences in proportions will compared using chi-square tests. A 0.05 level of significance will be used for all analyses. Independent sample t-tests will be used to compare the mean time (in days) required to collect complete AEFI data by SMS, telephone interview and diary card. Multinominal logistic regression analyses will be used assess the factors associated with effective use of tailored SMS, telephone interview and diary card for the AEFI active surveillance. To further investigate the association between the vaccine and the adverse events and factors associated with vaccine binary and multi variable logistic regression will be used.

NCT ID: NCT05771779 Not yet recruiting - Measles Clinical Trials

Co-administration Study of OCV, TCV and MR

Start date: October 14, 2023
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

An open-label, randomized controlled, non-inferiority study of co-administration of OCV, TCV and MR vaccines among children 12 to 59 months of age in Dhaka, Bangladesh will be conducted. Children who did not receive any of the aforementioned vaccines will be included in the study. This study will be conducted among 2117 children of 12-59 months of age residing in Mirpur area (wards 4, and 6-16) of Dhaka north and Kamrangirchar, Hazaribag and Rayerbazar areas (wards 14, 22, 56, 57, and 58) of Dhaka south to enroll the required number of participants. Only children who have not previously received the vaccines will be enrolled. The findings of this study are likely to have a significant impact on vaccine co-administration strategies for campaign and routine immunization programs. The participants will be randomly assigned to one of the six arms. The numbers are defined for each arm based on the sample size calculation. A list of children who did not receive MR, OCV and TCV will be prepared before enrollment by trained study staff (TSS). The TSSs will visit households in the defined study area and ask if the parents/guardians of children aged 12-59 months are willing to participate in the study. If they show willingness to participate, the TSSs will check their vaccination cards (if available) and prepare the list of potentially eligible children who have not received OCV, TCV and MR based on their vaccination card status and verbal statement (if vaccination card is not available). The investigators will enroll the participants after obtaining informed written consent and collect around 2-3 ml blood from each participant at different time points.
