Filter by:This is an observational study of HIV-1 infected children starting antiretroviral therapy to measure the magnitude and quality of general immune reconstitution and pathogen-specific immune reconstitution to measles virus.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK's trivalent MMR (Priorix®), comparing it to Merck"s MMR vaccine (M-M-R®II), which is approved for use in the US.
It is a clinicaltrial Phase III , randomized, double -blind , 4-arm (390 each one): This study will include 1560 children and will use 3 batches of vaccine produced by Bio - Manguinhos with viral bulk of GSK combined measles , mumps and rubella applied in healthy children 12-15 months of age, and 01 batch of MMR to reference( GSK ), applied in healthy children aged 12-15 months old . The vaccine is administered as MMR 1st dose. Two hypotheses are tested : 1. Consistency of production ( equivalence between batches )of 3 batches of vacines(TV1, TV2 , TV3 Bio- Manguinhos). Noninferiority vaccine Bio TV (Fiocruz, Rio de Janeiro), ie, the measles, mumps and rubella in Brazil is as immunogenic and safe as the measles, mumps and rubella reference, already used in routine NIP (production Bio-Manguinhos/FIOCRUZ with viral concentrate, bulk, GSK). The MMR vaccine (Bio-TV) will have the same composition (vaccine strains) and the same method of production of MMR (TV-GSK): Wistar RA27 / 3 rubella, Schwarz strain of measles vaccine, and strain RIT 4385 - derived from the Jeryl Lynn strain of mumps vaccine. As 2nd dose, children receive the vaccine tetraviral measles-mumps-rubella-varicella, aged 15-18 months, according to the guidance of the National Immunization Program. 2. Noninferiority vaccine Bio TV (Fiocruz, Rio de Janeiro):the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine in Brazil is as immunogenic and safe as the measles, mumps and rubella reference, already used in routine NIP (production Bio-Manguinhos/FIOCRUZ with viral concentrate, bulk, GSK). Returns for blood sampling will be scheduled for 51 days, ranging from 42 to 60 days after dose of MMR vaccine dose and after tetraviral. We will colect the firt blood sample before the first vaccination too. It will describe the major adverse events observed after vaccination , comparing their frequency in groups of MMR vaccine with the Brazilian reference vaccine .
The project goal is to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test whether mobile phone short message system (SMS) reminders, either with or without mobile-phone based travel subsidies will improve timeliness, coverage, and drop-out rates of routine EPI vaccines in rural western Kenya.
On a previous study conducted in Brazil. The MMR vaccine from 2 different producers had a mumps seroconversion much lower (71%) than the expected 95%, according to the package insert. This could indicate that a substantial proportion of children was not protected after MMR dose.
Whether the lower immunogenicity of the mumps component obtained in clinical studies with the MMR in Brazil, due to the multidose presentation. Investigations were made on factors that could interfere with immunogenicity of mumps component, as the kits used for the immunoassay method, and potency of the vaccine, but no explanation was found. This study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that the lower immunogenicity of the mumps component of the MMR Bio-Manguinhos vaccine, is due to the multidose presentation. The Main objetctive is evaluate the immunogenicity of MMR after one dose in children 12 to 23 months of life, comparing the performances multidose vial (10 doses per vial of vaccine produced in Bio-Manguinhos/Fiocruz through technology transfer from GlaxoSmithKline Laboratory - GSK) and single dose vial (1 dose per vial of vaccine produced by GSK).
Measles is a vaccine-preventable disease, which can be life-threatening in immunosuppressed children. Currently, measles vaccine is not recommended in pediatric orthotopic liver transplant recipients, because it is a live-attenuated vaccine. We want to assess the influence of immunosuppression on immunity against measles in previously vaccinated children and to evaluate the induction of B cell and T cell response against measles elicited by vaccination in children at least 12 months after transplantation.
This study will collect data on the safety of the MMRV vaccine (Priorix-Tetra™) used in routine practice in children aged 12 months to 12 years living in the Philippines.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate consistency in terms of the immune response to three different lots of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR vaccine manufactured to target potencies, and compare its immunogenicity to Merck & Co., Inc.'s MMR vaccine, which is approved for use in the United States (US).
The investigators aim to establish the non-inferiority of concomitant administration of measles-rubella and rotavirus vaccines to measles-rubella vaccine given alone in terms of measles seroconversion rates. The primary study hypothesis is the measles seroconversion rate as defined by the percentage of children seroconverting to measles with a measles serum antibody concentration of >=1:120 at 8 weeks post vaccination after the concomitant administration of measles-rubella and rotavirus vaccines is non-inferior to that obtained when measles-rubella vaccine is given alone in children 9 months of age who have received a primary rotavirus vaccine series with the first dose between 6 and 10 weeks and the second at least 4 weeks later and are seronegative for measles antibody in the pre-vaccination sample.
