Filter by:Until today, there is only little information available on how severe RSV infection leading to hospitalisation of the infant impacts the quality of life of affected families. For the ResQ Family project, an online questionnaire will be used to survey parents or caregivers of children up to 24 months currently or recently hospitalised (length of hospital stay of at least 12 hours and hospital admission no longer than 4 weeks ago) due to RSV infection. The aim of the ResQ Family project is to find out how infant RSV hospitalisation impacts the quality of life of affected children and their families. The goal is further to provide scientific evidence on the burden of RSV and raise awareness among all relevant stakeholders including healthcare professionals and patient representatives, decision-makers and the general public. The project will run until June 2024. Data collection will take place during the RSV season from fall 2022 to spring 2023 in four European countries: France, Germany, Italy, and Sweden.
The magnitude of seasonal RSV epidemics brings each year new logistical challenges for the hospitalization of young infants with bronchiolitis that overwhelm hospital capacities and lead to specific winter plans with deprogramming and mobilization of human and logistical resources. The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the way winter epidemics are presented. For example, the seasonal RSV epidemic was shifted by several months in Lyon, with an impression of a lower incidence of hospitalized cases, with a population of older children and with fewer signs of clinical severity. This is largely attributable to the widespread use of barrier gestures and social distancing measures, known as "non-pharmacological interventions" or NPI. Given the magnitude of the reduction of the RSV epidemic, it is legitimate to analyze the benefits of NPIs to draw lessons for maintaining preventive measures around RSV-vulnerable populations; moreover, new preventive pharmacological interventions are soon to be marketed, whether they are particularly refined and long half-life anti-RSV monoclonal antibodies, RSV vaccines for mothers or for newborns and infants. In this perspective, it is crucial to properly define the populations at risk of severe disease to establish a legitimate hierarchy in the implementation of different preventive strategies. The study of the RSV epidemic is a high potential model because of the convergence of epidemiological, virological, and pharmacological knowledge. However, the study of the impact of the pandemic on the epidemiology of rhinovirus also seems promising because, for reasons unknown to date, it seems that the pandemic did not have the same reducing impact on the rhinovirus epidemic; in the latter case, the interest is to confirm the resistance of this virus and to look for more fundamental explanations, for example, on viral interactions. On a previous study (see NTC 04944160), 519 infants and children were recruited in the Pre-Covid-19 season population, and 277 infants and children were recruited in the first Per-Covid-19 season population. In the present study, the objective is to assess the epidemiology of RVS in infants from the birth cohorts of the tertiary teaching hospitals of Lyon, France, during the Pre-Covid-19 (2013-2020) and the Per-Covid-19 (2020-2025) years.
A Multicenter Study Conducted to Evaluate the Performance of the LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 & FLU A/B Test, and LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 & RSV Test at Point of Care Testing Sites. Subjects presenting with symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 and/or Influenza and/or RSV will be consented and asked to donate swab sample(s) for testing in the device(s) under evaluation.
Gates MRI-RSM01-101 is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, occurrence of ADA, and assessment of neutralizing antibody against RSV after administration of single intravenous or intramuscular doses of RSM01 to healthy adults.
Molecular techniques for respiratory virus detection have already shown benefits in terms of sensitivity gained in comparison to conventional techniques. Recent progress has made it possible to shorten turnaround time (TAT) and to allow delivery of results in a timely manner, especially in comparison to cell culture and direct fluorescence assays (DFA). However, the cost of these molecular assays is usually not taken in charge by public health insurance system. This could be partly explained by the fact that molecular techniques have not clearly shown cost-effectiveness. Results of molecular tests for influenza viruses and RSV, if delivered rapidly, in the emergency room (ER), would most likely help avoid antibiotic use and ancillary test prescription, improve antiviral prescription and shorten length of stay in the ward by facilitating discharge or cohorting of hospitalized patients. The goal of this study is to assess the performances of Roche Cobas® Liat Influenza A/B & RSV assay, to appraise its clinical impact and to evaluate its cost effectiveness.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the most common cause of severe lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in the pediatric population worldwide. Age at the time of infection, prematurity, multiparity, exposure to smoke and the level of passive immunity transmitted at birth are the main risk factors for lower respiratory infection associated with RSV. Other factors, including the innate immune response, respiratory microbiota, and intra-host viral heterogeneity, may also affect outcomes but are not fully considered in RSV infection. Exploring the impact of these factors is difficult due to the heterogeneity of the population which makes statistical adjustment difficult. Thus, twin models are useful in understanding the impact of the host on the environment, as twins often share similar exposure to infection and many risk factors, but not all are ie different prenatal and postnatal conditions, differential transfer of maternal antibodies and the genetic makeup of heterozygotes.

A Non-Randomized, Open-Label, Drug-Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Effects of Fluconazole on the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of EDP-938 in Healthy Subjects
Collection of Nasal Swabs, Throat Swabs and Saliva Samples from patients presenting at their designated care or testing facility displaying symptoms of either Influenza, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), SARS-CoV-2 or those who have been in recent contact with SARS-CoV-2 positive patients. Collected samples will aid the development, calibration and performance evaluation of the LumiraDx POC Test.
