NCT ID NCT07417657

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study looks at whether the types of bacteria in a child's gut can influence how sick they get from RSV, a common virus that can cause severe breathing problems in infants. Researchers in Vietnam will compare the gut bacteria and immune responses of 250 children with mild versus severe RSV infection. The goal is to find patterns that could help predict or prevent severe illness.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could point toward new ways to predict which children are at risk for severe RSV, and possibly suggest microbiome-based treatments or preventions.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for links between gut bacteria and disease severity, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to children outside Vietnam.
