This Phase 1 study tests a new vaccine that aims to protect against three respiratory viruses at once: RSV, hMPV, and PIV3. The trial involves 390 adults aged 60 and older and will check if the vaccine is safe and helps the body produce antibodies. Different combinations and dose…

This study tested two experimental nasal spray vaccines in 24 children aged 2 to 5 years. The vaccines target two viruses that can cause breathing problems: human metapneumovirus (HMPV) and parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3). The main goal was to see if the vaccines are safe and …

This study tested whether giving a booster polio vaccine (sIPV) at the same time as MMR and hepatitis A vaccines is safe and works well in toddlers. About 889 healthy children aged 18 to 22 months who had already received their first polio and MMR shots took part. Researchers che…

This early-stage study tested the safety and immune response of new vaccines that combine protection against flu, RSV, hMPV, and PIV3 in healthy adults aged 18 to 49. Participants received a single shot of one of several vaccine formulas. The goal was to see if these combination …

This study tested a new measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine made by Shanghai Institute of Biological Products in 1,200 healthy children aged 9-11 months. The goal was to see if it works as well as the licensed GSK MMR vaccine and is safe. Children received one dose, and res…

This early-stage trial tested an experimental mRNA vaccine (mRNA-1215) for Nipah virus, a deadly infection with no approved treatments. Forty healthy adults received two doses of the vaccine and were monitored for safety and immune response. The vaccine cannot cause Nipah infecti…

This study looked at whether giving hospital-level care to acutely ill adults in their own homes in rural areas works well. 160 people with various conditions like infections, heart failure, or COPD took part. The goal was to see if this approach could lower costs and help patien…

This study looked at how well a new, quick finger-prick test (LumiraDx CRP) measures CRP levels compared to a standard lab test. CRP is a marker of infection, inflammation, or tissue injury. 79 adults with symptoms of these conditions took part. The goal was to see if the new tes…

This early study tested whether a special PET scan using a radioactive form of vitamin B9 (11C-PABA) can help doctors see infections deep inside the body. Researchers scanned 13 healthy people and patients with known or suspected infections. The goal was to see if this method can…

This study tested whether giving monthly nutritional supplements (SQ-LNS) to children aged 6-23 months could increase measles vaccination rates in northern Nigeria. Over 3,800 children participated across 20 wards. The goal was to see if the supplement acted as an incentive for f…

This completed study looked at how measles infection affects children's existing immunity and their ability to respond to vaccines. Researchers enrolled 264 children aged 1-15 in African regions, comparing those with acute measles to healthy controls. Participants received rabies…

This study looked at whether the measles vaccine virus can be found in the breast milk of new mothers who received the MMR vaccine shortly after giving birth. Fourteen breastfeeding women with no immunity to measles or rubella provided milk samples over two weeks. The goal was to…

This study surveyed 99 caregivers of young children in a New York emergency department to find out why some are hesitant about the measles vaccine. Researchers also tested whether a simple message from a doctor could change their minds. The goal is to identify barriers and improv…

This study looked at 156 critically ill patients to find out what factors help achieve the right levels of beta-lactam antibiotics in the blood. Researchers collected clinical data and used therapeutic drug monitoring to see which patients reached target concentrations. The goal …
