Filter by:The purpose of this study is to prospectively determine the rotavirus VP7/VP4 genotypes associated with moderate to severe disease (requiring emergency room (ER) consult or hospitalization) in a large public hospital from Valparaiso and another from Santiago.
Rotavirus is the leading cause of severe diarrhea in infants and young children, accounting for 45% of severe diarrhea disease in both developed and developing countries. Annually, rotavirus causes approximately 111 million episodes of gastroenteritis requiring home care, 25 million clinic visits, 2 million hospitalizations, and approximately 440,000 deaths in children less than 5 years of age, of which approximately 90% of hospitalizations and 99% of deaths occur in developing countries. Although rotavirus infection is not more common in HIV-infected children, it complicates their care and interferes with their nutrition. Chances of death by these infections can be greater in HIV-infected children when they also suffer from wasting, malnutrition, and/or opportunistic infections. The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the Rotavirus vaccine candidate, RotaTeq, in HIV-infected and uninfected children born to HIV-infected mothers.
This observational cohort study, conducted through two existing large administrative health databases in the US (outside the Vaccine Safety Datalink) is planned to confirm the safety profile regarding lack of any association of intussusception with Rotarix within 60 days of vaccination in a real life setting (routine use) in the US. This study will also include monitoring of Kawasaki disease, convulsions, hospitalizations due to acute lower respiratory tract infections and all-cause deaths within 60-days of vaccination. This study involves three cohorts, one exposed and two control cohorts: infants who receive Rotarix (Exposed cohort) and infants who receive IPV vaccination (Unexposed cohort A and B). This is a combined prospective and retrospective cohort study. Prospective component of the study identifies and compares study outcomes following Rotarix and IPV vaccination in the Exposed cohort and Unexposed cohort A, respectively. Retrospective component of the study identifies and compares study outcomes following IPV vaccination in the Unexposed cohort B.
This Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) will collect reactogenicity and safety data on the use of human rotavirus vaccine in healthy infants aged from 6 weeks (first dose) to not more than 24 weeks (second dose).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the lot-to-lot consistency of three production lots of GSK Biologicals' HRV vaccine in terms of immunogenicity and safety in healthy infants aged 2 months at the time of first vaccination.
This protocol posting deals with objectives and outcome measures of the primary phase at one month post-Dose 2. This Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) will collect safety data on the use of human rotavirus vaccine in at least 3000 evaluable infants in Korea. This study involves male or female infants from the age of 6 weeks at the time of the first vaccination. The vaccination course must be completed by the age of 24 weeks.
This is a dose exploration study to assess the safety and immunogenicity of two doses of the candidate HRV vaccine at different virus concentrations in the target age group (infants approximately 2 months of age and previously uninfected with human rotavirus) and receiving concomitant administration of routine vaccinations. The study also aims at exploring the effect of unrestricted feeding on the immunogenicity of the vaccine.
Nitazoxanide has proved an cytoprotective effect against rotavirus infection. How it could be clinically important in time of hospitalization and reduction of duration of diarrhea secondary to rotavirus?
This study aims to estimate the effectiveness of Rotarix™ vaccine which is used nationwide as a part of the expanded program on immunization (EPI), in preventing RV SGE among hospitalised children born after 1 March 2006, which corresponds to the date of introduction of Rotarix™ in the national immunization program.
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity in terms of antibody response and the safety/reactogenicity in terms of solicited and unsolicited symptoms and serious adverse events following primary vaccination of Taiwanese infants with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine GSK 1024850A co-administered with a diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis (DTPa)-combined vaccine and rotavirus vaccine in children during the first 6 months of life.
