Doravirine for children with HIV infection and stable treatment
This Phase 2 study tests doravirine (a type of HIV medicine) in children with HIV who are about 4 weeks to under 12 years old and weigh under 45 kg. It aims to see whether this regimen can control the virus safely, and some children may continue into an extension if they benefit.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 4 weeks–11 years - NCT04326426Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Study of tradipitant for severe or critical COVID-19
This trial tests whether tradipitant can improve outcomes for adults with severe or critical COVID-19, including pneumonia and low oxygen. It may help patients whose lungs are significantly affected and who need careful hospital-level care.
New York, New YorkAges 18–90 - NCT04308278RecruitingPhase 4
Homeopathic treatment for Epstein-Barr virus fatigue
This study tests a homeopathic treatment (2LEBV® and 2LXFS®) for people with Epstein-Barr virus infection who experience long-lasting fatigue and other symptoms. It aims to see if this treatment helps reduce fatigue and improve overall well-being.
Heule, KortrijkAges 12 years+ - NCT04197596RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
BK infection immune-cell treatment after transplant or weak immunity
This Phase 1/2 study tests lab-made immune cells that specifically target BK virus in people whose BK infection keeps coming back or doesn’t improve. It may help by boosting the body’s ability to clear the virus, especially when standard antiviral treatments don’t work or can’t be tolerated.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 1 month–79 years - NCT04230356RecruitingPhase 2
Viral immune T-cells for viral infections after stem cell transplant
This Phase 2 study tests donor-made immune T-cells that specifically target viruses to treat or prevent viral infections after a stem cell transplant. It may help your body control dangerous viruses like adenovirus, CMV, EBV, and BK virus, while checking safety with different timing of the treatment.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT04178915Enrolling by invitation
Blood marker study to predict severe bacterial lung infection
This study looks at specific immune cells and how fats are transported in the blood to predict which people will have a severe bacterial infection (like pneumonia or sepsis). Your results may help doctors identify higher-risk patients earlier.
MinskAges 18–60 - NCT04013802RecruitingPhase 1
Multivirus T-cell treatment for EBV, CMV, adenovirus, and BK after transplant
This Phase 1 study tests an “off-the-shelf” type of immune cell therapy made to attack several viruses (EBV, CMV, adenovirus, and BK, and possibly JC) in people who had an allogeneic stem cell transplant and still have ongoing viral infection. It may help your body control the virus when standard treatments have not worked or you cannot tolerate them.
