A Study of Doxycycline to Treat Chlamydial Infection

This is a Phase 4 blinded, randomized, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial. Persons of any gender identity will be eligible. Final evaluable population will include a minimum 596 individuals: 298 persons assigned female sex at birth (AFAB) with confirmed urogenital chlamydia (CT) and 298 persons assigned male at birth (AMAB) with confirmed rectal chlamydia (CT). Approximately 664 participants will be enrolled to achieve a minimum 596 participants who contribute primary outcome data. Randomization will be stratified by study site and sex at birth: 332 persons assigned female sex at birth (AFAB) and 332 persons assigned male sex at birth (AMAB). Participants will be randomized 1:1 to a 3-day regimen of doxycycline or a 7-day regimen of doxycycline. The study blind will be maintained by providing 7 days of identical pre-filled blister packs, one with 3 days of active treatment and 4 days of placebo, and the other with 7 days of active treatment. Participants will be asked to return 28 days after randomization (at day 29), at which time they will be re-tested for chlamydia (CT) using a laboratory-based chlamydia (CT) nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT).

Pharmacokinetic Study of IV Aresunate to Treat Children With Severe Malaria

This clinical study is a phase 4, single-site, open-label pharmacokinetic (PK) study of IV artesunate in up to 100 Ugandan children 6 months-14 years of age who are diagnosed with severe malaria according to standardized World Health Organization (WHO) criteria (any P. falciparum parasitemia and the presence of danger signs). Participants will receive the standard of care IV artesunate for initial treatment of severe malaria per WHO guidelines: children weighing <20 kg should receive 3.0 mg/kg/dose compared to children weighing =20 kg who should receive 2.4 mg/kg/dose, at times 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours (WHO 2015). Parenteral treatment will be administered for a minimum of 24 hours (irrespective of the patient's ability to tolerate oral medication earlier), after which patients will be evaluated clinically and assessed for ability for oral intake of antimalarials. Children who are able to transition to oral antimalarial therapy will initiate a 3-day course of artemisinin-combination oral therapy per national guidelines. The primary objective of the study is to determine the relationship between DHA exposures following IV artesunate dosing and markers of physiologic dysfunction associated with severe malaria in Ugandan children.

Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity of Dose Reduction Strategies of the MVA-BN Monkeypox Vaccine

This study is a Phase 2 randomized, open-label, non-placebo controlled, multi-site clinical trial that will evaluate two intradermal (ID) regimens for Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) vaccine compared to the standard subcutaneous (SC) regimen in healthy, vaccinia-naïve adults 18 to 50 years of age, inclusive. At least 210 participants will be enrolled and randomized to one of three study arms. The two dose sparing strategies include one-fifth (2 x 10^7) and one-tenth (1 x 10^7) of the standard dose of MVA-BN administered ID on Day 1 and 29 (Arm 1 and 2, respectively). The comparator arm (Arm 3) will be the 2-dose standard (1 x 10^8) MVA-BN SC regimen.

Safety and Immunogenicity of CJCV2 With and Without ALFQ

This is a randomized, double-blind, dose-escalating, outpatient trial in a total of approximately 60 subjects, assigned to 3 cohorts (20 subjects per cohort). Each subject will receive one of three intramuscular (IM) vaccinations, spaced 28 days apart, of Campylobacter jejuni Conjugate Vaccine (CJCV2) with or without a fixed dose of the adjuvant Army Liposome Formulation containing QS-21 (ALFQ)(200 mcg 3D-PHAD, 100 mcg QS-21). Three doses (1 ug, 3 ug and 10 ug) of CJCV2 will be evaluated. The first six participants at each dose will be sentinels and randomized in a 1:1 blinded fashion to receive CJCV2 with or without ALFQ. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of the three different doses of IM injection of CJCV2 with and without ALFQ. The study hypothesis is that the CJCV2 vaccine alone and CJCV2 with ALFQ adjuvant will be safe and that the CJCV2 alone will be immunogenic, with immunogenicity enhanced through the use of the adjuvant ALFQ.

Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity Study of Sm-p80 + GLA-SE (SchistoShield(R)) Vaccine in Healthy Adults (DMID 18-0018)

This phase 1 trial will assess the safety of the Sm-p80 + GLA-SE (SchistoShield®) study vaccine. The research will measure indicators of immunity to Schistosomiasis. The study will also assess whether the vaccine prompts an immune response, leading to the generation of antibodies that can prevent infection. Participants will include healthy people ages 18 through 55 years old. Volunteers will be assigned to one of five study groups, based on when they enroll in the study. Each group will include nine participants. Group A will receive the study vaccine without the adjuvant (a substance that increases the body’s response to vaccines), at a dose of 100 micrograms (μg) of Sm-p80, to test whether the adjuvant acts to increase immune responses. Groups B, C, D and E will receive the study vaccine with adjuvant. The dose of the Sm-p80 protein will be 10 μg in Group B, 30 μg in Groups C and D, and 100 μg in Group E to find out what dose leads to the best immune responses and side effect profile. The study will run over a 15-month period.

COVID-19 Variant Immunologic Landscape Trial (COVAIL Trial) (22-004)

This phase 2 clinical trial will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of additional doses of prototype and variant (alone or in combination) vaccine candidates in previously vaccinated participants with or without prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and will evaluate innate, cellular, and humoral immune responses to inform on how to shift the immune response to cover new variants as they emerge. Subjects will include individuals 18 years of age and older who are in a stable state of health and have received a complete authorized/approved vaccine series (primary series and booster either with homologous or heterologous vaccine products) 16 weeks prior to enrollment. Subjects will be stratified by age and history of confirmed prior SARS-CoV-2 infection, and randomly assigned to receive one of several variant vaccines.

Meningococcal Serogroup ACYWX Conjugate Vaccine in Comparison With MenACWY-TT Conjugate Vaccine (DMID 20-0024)

Meningococcal meningitis, caused by invasive strains of Neisseria meningitidis, is a major public health concern because of its considerable morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. Case fatality during meningococcal meningitis epidemics can surpass 15%, and rates of permanent sequelae among meningitis survivors in Africa are twice as high as they are in high income countries. Because of the fulminant clinical course of invasive bacterial meningitis and difficulties in access to care in the African meningitis belt, prevention by vaccination is the optimal way to reduce meningococcal meningitis morbidity and mortality. Infants aged 9 months will be randomized to receive a meningococcal vaccine at 9 months or 15 months. Infants randomized to the 9-month age group will be further randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive a single dose of the experimental meningococcal vaccine (NmCV-5) or a single dose of the comparator meningococcal vaccine (MenACWY-TT). Prospectively identified and consented infants randomized to the 15-month age group will return when aged 15 months and will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive a single dose of NmCV-5 or a single dose of MenACWY-TT.

Heterologous Prime Boost, Mix and Match Study (DMID 21-0012)

This clinical study will assess the use of booster doses of COVID-19 vaccines to determine the safety and effects of a booster on a person’s immunity to COVID-19. The study will include two groups: persons who have already received COVID-19 vaccines through Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), and persons who have never received a COVID-19 vaccine and have not had a prior SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19, infection. Study participants will receive a delayed booster vaccine of a COVID-19 vaccine under EUA which includes Moderna-mRNA-1273. This study will enroll approximately 400 healthy individuals ages 18 and older in the United States. The number of participants may increase with the addition of groups based on vaccines newly awarded EUA.
