Filter by:Vapendavir (VPV) is a drug being developed to treat human rhinovirus (RV) infection, one virus responsible for the common cold. Vapendavir prevents the virus from entering cells and making more infectious copies of itself. A study is being planned to investigate VPV in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a lung disease making it difficult to breathe) who develop a rhinoviral infection; however, VPV has not been approved for use in treating any indication (disease) by the FDA or any other global regulatory agency. Therefore, VPV is considered investigational, and the study doctor is conducting this investigational research study. Safety will be monitored throughout the entire study.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the reactogenicity, safety, and immunogenicity of an investigational respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine, mRNA-1345, in pregnant women, and safety and immunogenicity in infants born to vaccinated mothers.
This study is a clinical trial designed to assess the impact on influenza vaccination rates among people aged over 65 of a telephone text message recalling them to be vaccinated by their GP. Twenty-two GPs will be randomly selected in each arm (recall versus usual care, 1:1). Each GP will include a maximum of 210 patients by random selection from their patient list. A difference of 4 percentage points is expected between the two arms at the end vaccination campaign in the vaccination rate.
Dr. Biolyse® is a device with artificial intelligence that works in sync with the immune system and can be integrated like an element of this system. It is designed to develop chemical immunity within the body against infections. It gives electrical signals to the body without causing any pain and suffering to the patient. The electric current it applies is of a type that is not used in homes, and it is the frequency feature of direct current. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Biolyse device. for minimizing the use of drugs in COVID-19 patients and treating drug-related organ damage during treatment We hope that by conducting this study, we will obtain sufficient data to obtain approval (CE certification) for routine use and marketing of this medical device in patients. Once this happens, we will be able to ensure that this device is accessible/usable for patients suffering from similar diseases, especially COVID-19, regardless of any studies.
Screen participants attending 11 healthcare facilities in Mubende District for psychological distress using the locally validated Luganda or English version of the WHO- Self Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Those individuals found to have significant psychological distress (a score of 6 and above) will be offered Ebola+D intervention [a stepped care collaborative delivery model to address the medium- to long-term EBOLA associated psychological Distress and psychosocial problems] . A cohort of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) affected individuals accessing the Ebola +D mental health intervention will be recruited and followed up for 12 months with assessments at three time points; baseline, 3 months and 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of sisunatovir. Sisunatovir is studied for the possible treatment of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). RSV is a virus that causes lung infections with cold-like symptoms, but it can cause severe illness in some people. Sisunatovir is studied in adults: - who are not admitted to the hospital and - who have high chances of having a severe illness from RSV infection. This study is seeking participants who: - Are confirmed to have RSV. - Have symptoms of a lung infection. - Are 18 years of age or older. - Have one or more of the following which increases the chances of RSV illness: - A long-term lung disease. - heart failure. - a condition that weakens the immune system. - Are 65 years of age or older and do not have any of the conditions above Half of the participants in this study will receive sisunatovir. The other half will receive a placebo for 5 days. Placebo looks same like the study medicine but does not have any medication. Both sisunatovir and placebo will be taken by mouth. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving sisunatovir to those of the people who do not. This will help decide if sisunatovir is safe and effective. Participants will attend about 8-10 study visits over 5 weeks. During this time, they will have: - visits at the study clinic, - blood work, - swabs of the nose, - questionnaires, - a follow-up phone call.
The study is divided into 2 parts (Part A and Part B). Part A of the study will evaluate the safety and immune response to mRNA-1345 in high-risk adults aged ≥18 to <60 years. Part B of the study will evaluate the safety and immune response to mRNA-1345 in adults who received solid organ transplant (SOT).
Men who have sex with men (MSM), especially young men who have sex with men (YMSM), and transgender women (TGW) have some of the highest rates of HIV and syphilis diagnoses in the United States. The goal of this study is to pilot the mobile Lab (mLab) App Plus to assess YMSM's and YTGW's abilities to perform and interpret self-tests for HIV and syphilis and consequently increase the number of YMSM and young transgender woman (YTGW) who initiate self-testing for HIV and syphilis.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about infectious complications in patients affected by B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with inotuzumab-ozogamicin (INO). The main question it aims to answer is: • incidence of infectious complications (bacterial, fungal, viral) in patients receiving inotuzumab ozogamicin up to 60 days after the end of treatment
Respiratory viral infections (RVIs) represent a major public health problem and a great burden in terms of morbidity and mortality in children and adults worldwide. To ascertain the source of an infection, microbiology laboratories routinely perform a crucial step: the search for the pathogen through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Due to the extensive variety of pathogens, testing for the existence of all potential viruses, bacteria, or fungi accountable for the infection is an impractical and time-intensive endeavor. Furthermore, the rise of novel pathogens, exemplified by those accountable for the recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, underscores the urgency of promptly developing new innovative diagnostic tests. To address these needs, researchers have dedicated several years to developing indirect methodologies notably centered around utilizing markers derived from the host's immune system. Among these, one particularly promising approach focuses on measuring the expression of interferon-stimulated genes, which are uniquely triggered by viral infections, thereby facilitating viral diagnosis. This methodology's efficacy has been proven in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infections. This study's objective is to assess the functionality of such a tool across a spectrum of Respiratory Viral Infections (RVIs) prevalent within a French population during the winter season.
