Filter by:Streptococcus pyogenes, commonly referred to as Group A Streptococcus (GAS), has the ability to induce a diverse range of illnesses. In several European countries and the United States, a notable surge in invasive GAS (iGAS) infections has been documented since mid-2022. This sharp increase contrasts with the gradual rise in iGAS incidence observed among children over the past three decades. As demonstrated for several viral infections, the recent upturn in iGAS infections is potentially linked to the relaxation of mitigation measures implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as face mask usage and school closures. Since November 2022, concerns have been raised by French public health authorities regarding the rise in levels of iGAS infections, and an unexpected increase in pediatric severe GAS infections was reported in a French single-center study. However, this study ended in December 2022 and could only explore short-term trends. The Necker - Enfants malades Hospital in Paris, France, represents an excellent opportunity to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated non-pharmaceutical interventions on the incidence of severe GAS infections, during, and after the pandemic. This study aims to investigate trends of severe GAS infection incidence in children in the Paris area over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The goal of this follow-up study is to investigate the persistence of the immune response induced by the GBS-NN/NN2 vaccine in women who have participated in study MVX0002, and/or in study MVX0003 with GBS-NN/NN2 vaccine and received 1, 2 or 3 doses of GBS-NN/NN2. The main question it aims to answer is to determine the persistence of the immune response induced by the GBS-NN/NN2 vaccine by measuring antibody concentrations. Participants who had received a primary course of GBS-NN/NN2 in Study MVX0002 and/or MVX0003 will be invited to return to have a single yearly blood sample of approximately 10 mL collected 2 to 5 years after the completion of the previous vaccination.
The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the results of medical investigations to identify symptom and biological patterns and common etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders.
This study aims to emulate a hypothetical target pragmatic multi-center, non-blinded trial of adult inpatients in the PINC AITM dataset with B-lactam treated culture confirmed monomicrobial invasive Group A streptococcus (GAS) between the years 2015-2021
A placebo controlled clinical trial investigating the safety and immunogenicity of GBS6 in pregnant women with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and their infants
This study is observational, retrospective and prospective study in pediatric patients hospitalized with invasive streptococcal A infection
The study is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of three doses of GBS NN/NN2 with Alhydrogel® (Recombinant protein vaccine against Group B Streptococcus) in elderly participants aged 55 to 75.Participants will be followed up to 6 months after last vaccination.
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infection is a potential aetiology of meningitis and septicemia in neonates, pregnant women and non-pregnant adults. Because the GBS disease burden is unknown in Malaysia, it is unlikely to receive much attention. This study aims to determine the prevalence of group B streptococcus isolated from non-pregnant adults, the Incidence, case-fatality ratio, antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, serotyping, genotyping and detection of the GBS virulence and pili genes from six major hospitals in Peninsular Malaysia.
This study will enroll children ages 5-17 who test positive for Group A Streptococcus (GAS) at a single clinic visit lasting approximately 30-60 minutes. The primary aim of this study is to assess the accuracy and feasibility of the CandyCollect platform to capture and detect GAS. The investigators hypothesize that the CandyCollect platform is non-inferior to gold-standard rapid antigen detection testing for GAS.
This is a phase II, multicentre, multinational, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled study of four vaccination regimens in healthy pregnant women. There will be 5 treatment groups; three groups of 60 participants will receive will receive two doses of GBS-NN/NN2 vaccine and one dose of placebo (saline); one group of 60 participants will receive one dose of GBS-NN/NN2 vaccine and two doses of placebo (saline), and one group of 60 participants will receive three doses of placebo (saline).
