This study aims to see if analyzing chemicals in a person's breath can rapidly detect respiratory infections like COVID-19 or the flu. Researchers will collect breath samples from 1,665 adults with symptoms and healthy volunteers. If successful, this non-invasive test could offer…

This study will test a new at-home diagnostic test that aims to detect five respiratory viruses—COVID-19, influenza A and B, RSV, and rhinovirus—from a single nose swab. About 2,000 people with cold or flu symptoms will provide samples in simulated home environments. The test's a…

This study tests whether a rapid PCR test done right in the clinic can help doctors diagnose and treat acute respiratory infections faster. Over 16,000 adults at risk of severe illness will take part. The goal is to see if this approach lowers rates of respiratory failure and hos…

This trial tests a handheld light device (RD-X19) to see if using it for 5 minutes every other day can prevent upper respiratory infections like COVID-19 and flu. It involves 130 military personnel and their families at a single base. Half will get the real device, half a sham de…

This study tests whether a single dose of nirsevimab, an antibody that targets RSV, can prevent respiratory infections in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children aged 6 months. Around 1,000 children will be randomly assigned to receive either the antibody or standard care.…

This study tests a new medicine called SIBP-A16 to see if it can safely prevent RSV in infants under 1 year old, including those born early. About 36 babies will receive either the new drug, a placebo, or an existing RSV drug. The main goal is to check for side effects and how th…
