9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The aim of the study is to document the safety and immunogenicity of Purified Vero Rabies Vaccine (VRVg) when given in a simulated post-exposure regimen, i.e. with co-administration of human rabies immunoglobulins (Imovax® Rabies). Primary Objectives: * To demonstrate that VRVg is non-inferior to Imovax® Rabies in terms of proportion of subjects achieving a rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) titer ≥ 0.5 international units (IU)/mL at Day 14. * To demonstrate that the observed proportion of subjects achieving an RVNA titer ≥ 0.5 IU/mL at Day 14 is at least 99%, with a lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of at least 97%. Secondary Objectives: * To assess the clinical safety of each vaccine after each vaccine injection when administered in a simulated post-exposure schedule. * To describe the geometric mean titer ratio (GMTR) between the 2 vaccine groups at Day 14.
The use of antibiotics changes micro-organisms in the intestines which may impact the body's vaccine immune response and alter the effectiveness of the rabies vaccine. There will be two randomized groups (1:1 randomization). Group A will start taking an antibiotic regimen by mouth 3 days prior to vaccination and continue taking antibiotics the day of rabies vaccination and one day after vaccination for a total of 5 days. Group B will only receive the rabies vaccination and will not take any antibiotics. The dosage of each antibiotic is taken from their respective package inserts and does not exceed the maximum dose allowed for each antibiotic. The purpose of the study is to look at immune response after rabies vaccination with or without the use of antibiotics from day of vaccination to 28 days post vaccination in both groups.
This observational study will be conducted across the Houston Methodist system, including all hospital-based and freestanding emergency departments (ED), and up to 4 additional sites in the United States. The safety of human rabies immune globulin (HRIG) 300 IU/mL product (HyperRAB®) in pediatric patients has not been fully established. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of HRIG 300 IU/mL when given to pediatric patients per standard of care for rabies postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) in the ED.
This quasi-experimental, quality improvement study will be conducted across the Houston Methodist system, including all hospital-based and freestanding emergency departments (ED). Previous research identified opportunities to improve patient selection and delivery of rabies immune globulin (IG) as recommended by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guideline recommendations for rabies postexposure prophylaxis (PEP). The purpose of this study is to develop, implement, and measure the impact of a quality improvement bundle that consists of (1) rabies PEP electronic health records (EHR) enhancements, (2) education to ED staff, and (3) education to patients. Adherence to quality indicators, which are based on CDC guideline recommendations, for patient selection and delivery of rabies IG for 12 months following implementation (post-implementation group) will be compared with a historical control group.
This is a Phase 2b, double blinded, randomized study of SYN023 compared to HyperRab® (a licensed Rabies immune globulin from human sources, HRIG) for the prevention of rabies as part of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). The trial will enroll sequentially two different risk substrata of WHO Category 3 rabies exposure which are Low Risk Group (LRG) and Normal Risk Group (NRG). The enrollment will be stepwise while subject's data will be reviewed by DSMB to confirm the safety and permit for next enrollment. Besides, rabies vaccine would be administered within 75 minutes after Study Drug in each group. This trial is proposed to further the licensure of SYN023 to provide an effective PEP alternative available to those exposed persons who need such a product. A placebo-controlled rabies trial is unethical thus HRIG is selected as the control group. Rabies immune globulin from equine and human sources (HRIG) have been evaluated in many trials and HRIG is the standard of care in the United States.
This is single site, randomized, blinded comparison of the immunogenicity, of Imovax (RVi) and Rabavert (RVa) rabies vaccines when subjects are administered rabies immune globulin (RIG) or SYN023. Subjects will be randomized into one of four dose groups: RVi + SYN023, RVi+RIG, RVa+SYN023 and RVa+RIG. The initial dose of RVi and RVa will be co-administered with either RIG or SYN023). Rabies virus neutralizing activity (RVNA) and blood levels of SYN023 will be measured for the remainder of the trial while the rest of the five RVi and RVa doses are given. The study will last 112 days. SYN023 concentrations and anti-SYN023 antibodies will also be measured.
This is a single-arm, open-label study of Rabies Immune Globulin (Human), Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (RIG-C), in approximately 12 healthy subjects. The purpose of this study is to characterize the rabies virus-specific antibody titer after a single intramuscular injection of 20 IU/kg RIG-C and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RIG-C.
The aim of this study is to generate data on immunogenicity and safety of Purified Vero Rabies Vaccine - Serum Free (VRVg) in comparison with Imovax® Rabies in order to support the registration of VRVg in the USA. Primary Objectives: * To demonstrate that VRVg is non inferior to Imovax® Rabies in terms of proportion of subjects achieving an rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) titer ≥ 0.5 IU/mL at Day 42. * To demonstrate that the observed proportion of subjects achieving an RVNA titer ≥ 0.5 IU/mL at Day 42 is at least 99%, with a 95% lower confidence limit of at least 97%. Secondary Objectives: * To assess the clinical safety of VRVg each vaccine after each vaccine injection when administered in a pre-exposure schedule. * To describe the immune response induced by each vaccine 21 days after two vaccinations (Day 28) in a randomized subset of subjects and 14 days after the last vaccination of the primary vaccination series. * To describe antibody persistence at 6 and 12 months after the first vaccination in all subjects, and at 18 and 24 months in a subset of subjects.
The purpose of this first time-in-human (FTiH) study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of different dose levels of an experimental rabies glycoprotein G (RG) vaccine (RG-SAM \[CNE\] vaccine), made using a new technology, when administered intramuscularly (IM) on a 0, 2, 6 \*-month schedule to healthy adults. \* There will be no vaccinations with the third dose of any of the study treatments.
