Tetanus

This first-in-human study tests a new microneedle patch (Miracus) that dissolves in the skin to deliver a tetanus vaccine without a needle. Thirty healthy adults will receive either an empty patch or one loaded with vaccine. Researchers will check safety, tolerability, and whethe…

This study tests a new vaccine called TdaP2gen in 320 pregnant women in Thailand to see if it safely protects their babies from tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough. The vaccine is given during pregnancy, and researchers measure antibody levels in mothers and infants up to 18 …

This early-stage trial is testing a new tetanus vaccine in 80 adults aged 18 and older. The study is randomized and double-blind, meaning neither participants nor doctors know who gets the new vaccine versus an existing one. The main goal is to check for side effects within the f…

This early-stage trial is testing a new combination vaccine that protects against whooping cough, diphtheria, and tetanus (Tdap) in people aged 10 and older. Researchers want to see if different doses are safe and trigger an immune response. The study involves 96 volunteers and c…

This study tests a new version of the Tdap vaccine (which protects against tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough) that has reduced antigens. The goal is to see if it is safe and triggers a strong immune response in people aged 6 and up. Around 660 volunteers will receive either…

This study tests a single booster dose of a combined vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough (dTpa) in 85 healthy Japanese adolescents aged 11 to 13. Researchers will check if the shot triggers a strong immune response and monitor for side effects one month after …

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 study aims to create a quick, non-invasive test using saliva to see if someone has enough antibodies to fight tetanus. Instead of drawing blood, a small saliva sample on a test strip would give results in 10-15 minutes. The test is designed for low- and middle-income areas w…

This study tests a new medicine called SNA02-48 to see if it can prevent tetanus in people who have had a high-risk wound, like a deep cut or puncture from a dirty object. About 600 adults will receive either the new injection or the standard treatment (human tetanus immunoglobul…

This phase 3 trial will give a single dose of the dTpa vaccine (Boostrix) to 95 healthy Japanese pregnant women between 27 and 37 weeks of pregnancy. The goal is to see if the vaccine triggers strong immunity in the mothers and passes protective antibodies to their babies at birt…

This study tests a new medicine called siltartoxatug to prevent tetanus in people who have been injured. About 6,000 adults in China will receive either the new drug or a standard tetanus shot. Researchers will check how well each treatment prevents tetanus over 90 days and monit…

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 early-stage study will give a single dose of the experimental antibiotic gepotidacin to 20 hospitalized children aged 2 to 12 who are already receiving standard antibiotics for a bacterial infection or as a preventive measure. Researchers will measure how the drug moves thro…

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…
