Hantavirus infectious disease

This study tests whether a new drug called AIC263029 is safe and can lower BK virus levels in kidney transplant recipients. About 24 adults who had a kidney transplant within the past year and have a first-time BK virus infection will receive weekly injections for 4 weeks. Resear…

This study compares two common antibiotic combinations—vancomycin with piperacillin/tazobactam versus vancomycin with meropenem—to see which is less harmful to the kidneys. About 852 hospitalized adults with serious infections will be randomly assigned to one of the two combos. T…

This observational study will look at 10,000 adults in intensive care units (ICUs) around the world during a single 24-hour period. Researchers want to find out how common infections and antibiotic-resistant bacteria are, how they are treated, and how patients recover. No new tre…

This research project aims to understand why older adults get more infections and why those infections can be more serious. By following 23,000 people aged 60 and older, scientists will collect health data and samples like blood and stool to study how the immune system changes wi…

This study will follow 1000 kidney transplant patients for one year to see if monthly blood tests for certain viruses (CMV, BK, and TTV) can help predict and prevent serious infections and kidney damage. The goal is to learn how the body's immune system and virus levels relate to…

This study will collect blood samples from 30,000 adults in the UK with various health conditions, including blood clots, infections, heart disease, diabetes, and more. The samples will be used to develop and fine-tune new diagnostic tests for the cobas® lumira device, which allo…

This study will follow 300 adults with severe infections in the ICU to see how levels of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs)—natural molecules that help stop inflammation—change over time. Researchers will use blood samples already collected during routine care, so no extr…

This study tracks BK virus in saliva, urine, and blood of 100 kidney transplant recipients over one year. The goal is to see if the virus spreads through saliva and how it affects the new kidney. Participants collect their own saliva samples at home, plus give urine and blood at …

This study looks at why some people with a rare virus called hantavirus develop serious bleeding and kidney failure. Researchers will study blood samples from 62 hospitalized patients in Slovenia to understand how clotting goes wrong. The goal is to better predict who is at risk …
