This study tests two experimental vaccines, AZD4117 and AZD5315, designed to protect against certain strains of avian influenza (bird flu), specifically H5N1 and H7N9. Around 405 healthy adults will receive either a vaccine or a placebo to see if the vaccines are safe and trigger…

This study looks at whether a special team of doctors and nurses can treat adults with suspected infections at home, instead of sending them to the hospital. About 500 people will be randomly assigned to either standard hospital care or home-based care from a mobile response team…

This study tests a fast point-of-care PCR test (Spotfire) that quickly identifies whether a respiratory infection is caused by a virus. The goal is to give ER doctors results faster so they can avoid prescribing antibiotics when they won't help. The trial enrolls 200 adults with …

This study tests whether OM-85 (Broncho-Vaxom), a bacterial extract taken by mouth for 10 days each month, can reduce the number of respiratory infections in children aged 6 months to 5 years who have a history of wheezing. About 525 children will receive either OM-85 or a placeb…

This early-stage study tests different doses of an experimental flu medicine called TRX-100, taken alongside standard care, in 105 people with mild to moderate influenza. The main goals are to check safety and find the best dose. Researchers will also track how well it eases flu …

This study tests a new medicine called ZSP1273 in children aged 2 to 11 who have influenza A. The goal is to see if it can shorten flu symptoms and is safe. About 119 children in China will take either ZSP1273 or the standard flu drug oseltamivir.

This phase 3 trial tests whether the experimental drug ZSP1273 can shorten flu symptoms in teenagers aged 12-17 with uncomplicated influenza A. About 157 participants in China will receive either the drug or a placebo. The main goal is to see how quickly symptoms like cough, feve…

This study looks at how the immune system of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) responds to severe infections caused by viruses or bacteria. Researchers will take extra blood samples from 38 adults to analyze immature granulocytes, a type of immune cell. The goal is to see…

This study looks at whether air samplers placed in homes can detect viruses that cause colds and flu, and how that compares to standard nasal swabs. About 422 students and their families will participate. The goal is to better understand how respiratory viruses spread through hou…

This study compares new, less invasive ways to collect samples for respiratory virus testing—like a nasal wash or saliva—against the standard deep nose swab. Researchers want to see if these gentler methods work just as well and cause less pain. About 1,000 adults in the emergenc…

This study aimed to see if a computer could learn to predict how long a patient would stay in a home hospital program. Researchers planned to use data from past patients to train the computer. However, the study was withdrawn before any patients were enrolled, so no results are a…

This trial is studying a device that has not been approved by the U.S. FDA. The purpose is to gather information about how the device works and its safety. Participants will be monitored closely. The study sponsor and current status are not publicly available.

This study places a rapid testing device in primary care clinics to help doctors quickly identify whether a cold-like illness is caused by a virus or bacteria. About 8,000 adults with symptoms like cough or runny nose will get a nasal swab, with results in 15 minutes. The goal is…

This study aims to see if a simple, non-invasive breathing test can accurately measure the acidity (pH) in the airways, which is often abnormal in lung diseases. Researchers will compare results from this breath test with standard methods in 150 healthy volunteers and people with…

This study looks at immune cells from people with autoimmune diseases (like lupus), people with infections, and healthy volunteers. Researchers want to understand how these cells differ and what makes them attack the body in autoimmune conditions. The study involves blood and bon…
