NCT03586284
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is generally a latent and asymptomatic infection in healthy, immunocompetent individuals. In immunocompromised patients CMV is well known to cause a retinitis that can lead to blindness. In immunocompetent patients, however, CMV can cause recurrent inflammation in the front of the eye (anterior uveitis). CMV anterior uveitis produces complications including pain, glaucoma, corneal failure, and vision loss. CMV anterior uveitis is commonly misdiagnosed as a non-infectious anterior uveitis and treated as such, which can beget further complications. Diagnosis requires directed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing. While antiviral therapy exists for CMV, identifying the appropriate therapy has been challenging because no randomized trials comparing routes of therapy (particularly oral or topical) have been performed. Oral antiviral therapy of CMV carries blood and kidney side effects that requires laboratory monitoring. Topical therapy has been reported to be effective, but no consensus as to the appropriate drug concentration exists. Here we propose a double-masked randomized controlled clinical trial comparing the efficacy of oral valganciclovir, topical ganciclovir 2%, and placebo for the treatment of PCR-proven CMV anterior uveitis. This pilot study will provide valuable information concerning the treatment of CMV anterior uveitis with oral and topical medications, including effective concentrations and side-effect profile. The information obtained from this study will help inform future larger clinical trials in CMV anterior uveitis.
NCT05089630
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immune response of the candidate CMV recombinant protein subunit (CMVsu) vaccine consisting of a combination of glycoproteins B (gB) and pentamer antigens adjuvanted, regardless of baseline CMV sero-status. This FTiH study will be conducted in healthy adults 18 to 50 years of age, in which the 4 dose levels of the vaccine will be administered in a step-wise dose escalation manner, based upon safety adjudication.
NCT06439342
The main aim of this study is to learn how safe maribavir is in Chinese adults who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell or organ transplantation and have a cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and how well they tolerate treatment with maribavir. Other aims are to see how effective maribavir is in treating CMV infection and getting rid of the symptoms, the recurrence rate of CMV infection after treatment with maribavir and if the treatment is required again. Researchers will also check for changes (mutations) occurring in the virus which may cause treatment with maribavir to no longer work well or to not work at all (resistance to maribavir). The participants will be treated with maribavir for 8 weeks. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 18 times.
NCT05664126
The investigators want to learn if CMV- and ADV-specific T-cells (cells that fight infections) isolated (selected) from a donor using an automated medical device can be a safe treatment for treating patients with CMV, and ADV after transplant.This study will test the effects and safety of giving VSTs produced here at St. Jude in treating the participant's infection. Primary objective To determine the efficacy of VSTs to achieve a ≥1 log10 reduction in CMV and/or ADV viral load in the peripheral blood 4 weeks after VST infusion. When the initial viral load is \<1 log10 above the threshold of detection, the objective is to achieve a reduction to below the threshold of detection. Secondary objectives * Determine the safety of VSTs when used to treat CMV and/or ADV viremia post-HCT. * Determine the proportion of patients who achieve a negative viral load at 3 months post-infusion. * Assess the persistence of response for 6 months post-infusion.
NCT00023036
This study will try to identify and understand the genetic factors that lead to an inner ear malformation called "enlarged vestibular aqueducts", that can be associated with hearing loss. Patients with sensorineural hearing loss with or without inner ear malformations and their parents and siblings may be eligible for this study. Participants and their immediate family members, may undergo some or all of the following tests and procedures: * Medical and family history, including questions about hearing, balance and other ear-related issues, and review of medical records. * Routine physical examination. * Blood draw or buccal swab (brushing inside the cheek to collect cells) - Tissue is collected for DNA analysis to look for changes in genes that may be related to hearing loss. * Hearing tests - The subject listens for tones emitted through a small earphone. * Balance test (VEMP) to see if balance functions of the inner ear are associated with the hearing loss Electrodes will be placed behind your ear and at the base of your neck. From a reclining position, you will be asked to raise your head while clicking sounds are played into your ears. - Ultrasound tests - An inner ear malformation called EVA (enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct) indicates that a genetic disorder called Pendred syndrome may be the cause. Because thyroid abnormalities are also associated with Pendred syndrome, an ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland may be done. * Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans - These tests show the structure of the inner ear. For CT, the subject lies still for a short time while X-ray images are obtained. For MRI, the patient lies on a stretcher that is moved into a cylindrical machine with a strong magnetic field. The magnetic field and radio waves produce images of the inner ear. The radio waves cause loud thumping noises that can be muffled by the use of earplugs.
NCT06958796
This study is being done to find out if administering CytoGam® after the end of standardly prescribed preventive antiviral treatment can help transplant recipients with a high risk for developing late CMV disease after a liver and/or kidney transplant.
NCT07294547
Opportunistic CMV viremia (primary infection or reactivation) is usually managed by taking prophylactic medication for both adult and pediatric kidney transplant patients. Most hospitals prescribe valganciclovir for this purpose but valacyclovir has also been used. The most unfavorable side effect of valganciclovir is bone marrow suppression which can be troublesome for kidney transplant patients who are already immunosuppressed. We aim to assess the non-inferiority of valacyclovir compared with valganciclovir in this study.
NCT05085366
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of mRNA 1647 vaccine in CMV-seronegative female participants and to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1647 vaccine in all participants. The purpose of the Phase 3 extension substudy is to extend the observation period of the main study and to assess the longer-term immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of the mRNA-1647 vaccine against primary CMV infection in healthy females who were CMV-seronegative at Baseline of the mRNA-1647-P301 main study (including participants who remain CMV-seronegative upon entry into the extension substudy and participants who seroconverted during the main study). The extension substudy will also evaluate the immune persistence and safety of mRNA-1647 in a subset of female participants who were CMV-seropositive at Baseline of the main study. No interventional vaccine will be administered in the extension substudy.
NCT06615921
The main aim of this study is to check how effective the treatment with Maribavir has been to remove the CMV viruses from the blood of an adult person with CMV infection after a transplant. Other aims are to learn more about how maribavir is used in normal clinical routine, study the profiles of adults treated with maribavir, and what other treatments have been given, and describe healthcare resources used for CMV management. Only data already available in the medical records of the participants will be reviewed and collected during this study.
NCT02064699
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection was observed in over 30% of organ recipients with high morbidity. Moreover, no prophylaxis, 75% R + D-transplanted, 55%, R + D + and D-25% R + develop CMV. The number of available antiviral drugs is reduced and noticeable side effects (neutropenia, renal toxicity) lead to premature discontinuation of therapy or the use of reduced doses that promote non-response to treatment and the emergence of resistance. In case of neutropenia, there are more an increased risk of secondary rejection due to the reduction of immunosuppressive treatment rendered necessary by the haematological reached. Rational use of these molecules is necessary with essential today as the optimal duration of prophylaxis primary issues and the prophylaxis of recurrences in case of CMV infection reported in.
NCT06926894
The primary objective is to determine the safety and feasibility of administering R-MVST cells to patients with refractory viral reactivation and/or symptomatic disease caused by Epstein Barr Virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), adenovirus (ADV) or BK virus. R-MVST cells will be generated on-demand from the closest partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched (minimum haploidentical) healthy donors or from the original allo-transplant donor if available. The investigator will closely monitor the recipients for potential toxicities including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) post-infusion. Secondary objectives are to determine the effect of R-MVST infusion on viral load, possible recovery of antiviral immunity post-infusion and for evidence of clinical responses and overall survival. Recipients will be monitored for secondary graft failure at day 28 post R-MVST infusion.
NCT01008540
The investigators aim is to determine the incidence of cytomegalovirus resistance to antivirals in a cohort study. The patients are included at their first CMV active infection and are followed during two years thereafter. When criteria for suspected resistance are meet, blood and urine samples are collected for virus isolation and further resistance phenotype, and for resistance genotype determination. Results are compared with baseline samples. Clinical information such as treatment, immunosuppressive regimen and clinical evolution will be collected. Through this study, the investigators aim to organize a national network for the detection and identification of CMV resistant strains that will be useful when new therapeutics will be available.
NCT04225923
The primary objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of NPC-21 when administered prophylactically to cytomegalovirus (CMV) seronegative patients receiving a first kidney transplant from a CMV seropositive donor.
NCT05626530
This is a research study to test the tolerability and clinical effectiveness of the study drug, Letermovir (LET), when used as secondary prophylaxis following treatment of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and disease in a solid organ transplant recipient. This study is an open label trial in which Letermovir will be prescribed to prevent the recurrence of CMV infection and disease in a solid organ transplant recipient following treatment of CMV infection or disease.
NCT05763823
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a once-a-day oral or intravenous (IV) dose of Letermovir (MK-8228) in Chinese adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients for the prevention of clinically significant cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection.
NCT02007356
To assess the feasibility of donor-derived interferon (IFN)-γ positive select-ed virus-specific T-cells using the cytokine capture system® (CCS) and the safety of subsequent infusion in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with treatment refractory post-transplant viral infections. The CCS has already been successfully used in clinical studies in Germany and United Kingdom (UK).
NCT04840199
This was an open-label, controlled study, conducted at US sites to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of the study drug letermovir in adults with HIV and asymptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) who were on antiretroviral therapy (ART)-mediated suppression. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either letermovir once daily or no anti-CMV treatment, for 48 weeks. The primary hypothesis of this study was that letermovir would cause a greater reduction in plasma soluble receptor for tumor necrosis factor type II (sTNFRII) levels than no anti-CMV treatment at weeks 46/48.
