Picornaviridae infectious disease

This trial tests a new vaccine called LBVD, which combines protection against six diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, hepatitis B, polio, and Hib. The study enrolls healthy infants around 6 to 8 weeks old who receive three doses at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age. Researche…

This trial is testing an experimental vaccine made from virus-like particles (VLPs) that mimic polio viruses without causing disease. It aims to see if this vaccine is safe and triggers a strong immune response in healthy infants starting at 6 weeks old and toddlers aged 12-18 mo…

This study tests an inactivated EV71 vaccine (Envacgen®) in healthy children aged 6 to under 10 years and compares their immune response and safety to children aged 2 to under 6 years. Around 378 children will receive two shots 57 days apart. The goal is to see if the vaccine wor…

Researchers are testing whether a virtual walking program can reduce chronic pain and psychological distress in people with severe mobility impairment, mostly from spinal cord injuries or polio. Participants wear a head-mounted display and use a controller to guide an avatar thro…

This study tests a new, team-based rehabilitation program for 125 working-age adults with persistent physical symptoms and chronic fatigue. The program includes doctors, therapists, and counselors who work together to help patients manage their symptoms and improve daily function…

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 follows up on 220 children who received the EV71 vaccine (Envacgen®) or a placebo about 6 years ago. Researchers will measure antibody levels in the blood to see if protection against enterovirus 71, which causes hand-foot-mouth disease, has lasted. The goal is to unde…

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…
