Meningitis caused by poliovirus

This study tests whether specially grown donor immune cells (viral-specific T-cells) can safely treat viral infections that often occur after a stem cell transplant. These infections can be serious and sometimes don't respond to standard antiviral drugs. The approach aims to boos…

This study tests whether giving patients donor-derived immune cells (VSTs) on a regular schedule can prevent dangerous viral infections after a stem cell transplant. 180 participants will be randomly assigned to receive VSTs either on a fixed schedule or only when a virus is dete…

This study is testing whether immune checkpoint inhibitors, drugs that help the immune system fight infections, can improve outcomes for people with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a rare brain virus. Researchers will follow 66 patients over a year, measuring di…

This study looks at whether a quick diagnostic test (BioFire FilmArray) can accurately predict the cause of meningitis or encephalitis in 182 adults. Participants with symptoms like fever, headache, or confusion will have their spinal fluid tested. The goal is to see if the test …

This study in northern Uganda will track 1,100 people with meningitis symptoms and screen 10,000 HIV-positive patients for a fungal infection that can lead to meningitis. Researchers will use modern diagnostic tests to understand the causes and outcomes of the disease. The goal i…

This study is tracking how adults with meningitis are treated in about 30 hospitals across Brazil. Researchers will follow 624 patients during their hospital stay and after discharge to see what treatments work best and how patients recover. The goal is to gather real-world evide…

This study is creating a registry of 600 children under 18 with meningitis treated at hospitals across Brazil. Researchers will collect data during and after hospitalization to see how well current treatments work and what long-term problems, like hearing loss, occur. The goal is…
