Dengue infection study in healthy adults
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests how the dengue virus affects healthy adults who have never been exposed to dengue or similar viruses. You would be given a controlled dose of the virus and closely monitored to help researchers understand the infection and develop better treatments or vaccines.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 21 and 45 years old.
- You have never had dengue, Zika, yellow fever, or Japanese encephalitis, and have never been vaccinated against them.
- You are in good general health with no serious medical conditions (like heart, lung, liver, or kidney disease, or severe depression/anxiety).
- You are willing to use birth control during the study and for at least 1 month after the viral challenge.
- You have not received any vaccines 30–60 days before the study, and no experimental drugs or specific medications in the last 3–6 months.

This study tests how the body responds to a mild, lab-made dengue virus in people who have had dengue before. It looks at how the immune system reacts to a second infection, which may help improve future vaccines and treatments.
This study tests a controlled dengue infection in volunteers who already have immunity to some dengue types. It aims to see how safe it is and how the immune system responds, which could help develop better vaccines.
This trial tests a new dengue vaccine in adults aged 40 to 79 to see if it can protect them from dengue fever. If you are generally healthy and willing to follow the study schedule, you may be able to join.
This early-stage trial tests a new dengue vaccine in healthy adults. Participants will receive the vaccine and later be exposed to a weakened dengue virus to see if the vaccine protects them, while being closely monitored for safety and immune response.
This trial tests a new experimental drug, EYU688, for adults with dengue fever. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective. You may qualify if you have early dengue symptoms, have tested positive for dengue, and are otherwise healthy.
This study collects blood samples from people with suspected or confirmed dengue to help improve testing. Participation may help researchers understand the disease better and could lead to better diagnostics.
