NCT ID: NCT06048406 Recruiting - Influenza Clinical Trials

Effect of Health Education on Promoting Influenza Vaccination Health Literacy

Start date: September 11, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this cluster randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of health education interventions on influenza vaccination rates and health literacy in primary school students in the city of Dongguan in China. Individuals aged 7 to 12 years who are in grades 4-5 in primary schools in Dongguan will be enrolled. 20 primary schools will be randomly selected, with half designated as intervention group schools and the remaining half as control group schools. The intervention group will receive a monthly health education intervention focused on influenza vaccination for 5 months, while the control group will continue with their routine school health education for 5 months. Researchers will compare the differences in influenza vaccination rates and influenza vaccination health literacy levels between the intervention and control groups after 5 months to see if health education can promote influenza vaccination health literacy among primary school students.

NCT ID: NCT05977127 Active, not recruiting - COVID-19 Clinical Trials

Intradermal Administration of a COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine in Elderly

HVaNa
Start date: September 26, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Respiratory tract infections, e.g. caused by SARS-CoV-2, disproportionately affect elderly. Vaccination has shown to be the most cost-effective approach to prevent infections. However, older adults often fail to induce a potent immune response to vaccines, as was also seen recently for COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. This is likely due to immune dysfunction as a consequence of aging. To potentiate a stronger immune response, vaccine administration into the papillary dermis (intradermal, ID) has been proposed as an alternative strategy to intramuscular (IM) administration. Vaccination through the ID route has shown to be safe and equally or more effective than IM vaccination with a wide variety of vaccines. Recently, ID administration has been tested with two COVID-19 mRNA vaccines (Spikevax, Moderna and Comirnaty, Pfizer/BioNTech) in reduced (fractional) doses of the standard IM dose. To ease ID administration and thereby facilitate the implementation of this route, silicon-based microneedles have been developed. These needles have shown to allow ID administration of the Spikevax vaccine with equal safety and immunogenicity profiles as the traditional Mantoux approach in young adults. In the present study, we will investigate the immunogenicity of a 20 mcg dose of the COVID-19 mRNA Comirnaty vaccine through ID administration with silicon microneedles in elderly people (75 years and older), and compare this to immunogenicity of IM administration of a 20 mcg dose and a 30 mcg (standard IM) dose.

Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the immunogenicity and safety of recombinant zoster vaccine according to CD4+ T-cell count and age in people living with HIV, and to provide evidence to guide immunization of people living with HIV.

NCT ID: NCT05869201 Completed - Influenza Clinical Trials

Tolerability, Safety and Immunogenicity Trial of the Flu-M Quadro, Tetravalent Inactivated Split Influenza Vaccine

Start date: October 6, 2020
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess tolerability, safety and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro vaccine as compared to the Ultrix® Quadri vaccine in volunteers aged between 18 and 60. Participants were given Flu-M Quadro [inactivated split influenza vaccine] with preservative or Flu-M Quadro [inactivated split influenza vaccine] without preservative or Ultrix® Quadri vaccine.The volunteers of each group were vaccinated with a single dose vaccine. Researchers assessed the tolerability, safety and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro quadrivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine. Researchers performed a comparative assessment of the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro quadrivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine and the Ultrix® Quadri vaccine.

NCT ID: NCT05856396 Not yet recruiting - Pertussis Clinical Trials

Maternal Determinants of Infant Immunity to Pertussis

MADI-02
Start date: June 1, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The overall objective of the project is to identify the determinants of antibody-mediated immunity in infants born to mothers immunized during pregnancy. Using maternal pertussis immunization as a model, the project will identify key predictors and potential determinants of vaccine responses in pregnant women, of the transfer of maternal antibodies to the newborn and of vaccine responses in infants. A systems biology approach will be used to delineate pre-vaccination and post-vaccination cellular and molecular correlates of the immune response to pertussis immunization in peripheral blood and in breastmilk.

NCT ID: NCT05705180 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Vaccination; Infection

The Influence of Trained Immunity in COVID-19 Vaccinated Individuals

Start date: December 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The concept of trained immunity defines the long-term functional reprogramming of innate immune cells, which is evoked by exogenous or endogenous insults and leads to an altered response towards a second challenge after return to a non-activated state and is characterized by several markers, such as specific cytokines, activation markers of innate immune cells and epigenetic modifications, e.g. H3K4me3. Vaccinations have been shown to induce trained immunity and to have heterologous effects on other infections or vaccinations. A recent article showed, that individuals who had received recombinant adjuvanted zoster vaccine (RZV) before the pandemic had a 16% lower risk of COVID-19 diagnosis and a 32% lower risk of hospitalization suggesting a protective heterologous effect of RVZ on COVID19 infections. So far, the mechanisms behind these add-on benefits of RZV vaccination are on the hypothetical level and need further experimental evidence. Therefore, we aim to investigate the specific humoral and cellular immune response towards COVID-19 vaccine in healthy individuals who were exposed to RZV 1 to 12 months before COVID-19 vaccination compared to individuals who did not receive RZV before. Particular emphasis is layed on COVID-19 vaccine non-responders and individuals with breakthrough infections indicating lower vaccine efficacy compared to those who had no breakthrough infection. The primary objective is the cytokine profile of spike protein-stimulated T, NK and NKT cells. Spike protein stimulated T, NK and NKT cells are characterized by cell surface markers, transcription factor expression, chemokine receptor expression, activation and proliferation markers and by their lineage-specific cytokine pattern. CD14+ monocytes are magnetically isolated and further characterized by cell-culture experiments imitating a training and resting period after stimulation. Epigenetic modifications by methylation of CpG regions are assessed at promoter, enhancer and regulatory gene regions of immune cell characteristic transcription factors by bisulfite conversion and pyrosequencing. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and ChIP-seq will be performed for analysis H3K4me3 associated with trained immunity. Humoral and cellular reactivity to spike protein is analyzed by adapted ELISA and neutralisation assays and by ELISpot and flow cytometry, respectively, and correlated. From our findings we expect to learn about the role of previous RZV on immunogenicity and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination and whether mechanisms of trained immunity play a role for better responses towards COVID-19 vaccination.

NCT ID: NCT05658614 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Vaccination; Infection

Anti-Schistosomiasis Sm14-vaccine in Senegal

Start date: July 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Previous clinical trials have already demonstrated the safety of the candidate vaccine in adults as well as in children, in good health or infected with schistosomiasis. Regarding the induced immune response, more than 80% of vaccinated subjects were seroconverted after three vaccine injections. The induced immune response was substantial but transient. In order to obtain a more lasting immune response, the investigator will experiment with a new vaccination schedule (2 injections 1-month interval and the 3rd injection 5 months after the first dose), versus the vaccine schedule initially used (3 injections at 1-month interval). This trial will be the last phase 2 before testing the efficacy of the rSm14 vaccine candidate.
