Gut Health and Rotavirus Vaccine Response in Adults
Part of Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study examines how the health of your digestive system affects how well your body responds to an oral rotavirus vaccine (a vaccine given by mouth to protect against rotavirus infection). You'll have two endoscopy procedures—a camera test to look inside your digestive tract—and provide samples to help researchers understand this connection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 50 years old
- You live in Lusaka district, Zambia, and can attend scheduled visits
- You are willing to have two endoscopy procedures (a camera tube inserted to examine your gut) with sample collection
- You do not have an active digestive disease requiring treatment, such as stomach ulcers or active bleeding
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant in the 30 days after vaccination
- You do not have a severe immune system problem, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or heart/lung disease that would make endoscopy unsafe

This study tests an oral cholera vaccine called PanChol in healthy adults. The goal is to see if it's safe and how the body responds. It may help protect against cholera, a serious diarrheal illness.
This trial tests an oral vaccine given as drops to protect babies against rotavirus, a common cause of severe diarrhea. It is for healthy infants aged 6 to 12 weeks who have not had the rotavirus vaccine or infection before.
This study tests a new RSV vaccine to see if it is safe for healthy adults. It uses mRNA technology to help your body build protection against RSV, a common respiratory virus.
This study tests how your body's immune system responds to a new respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine. RSV is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, especially in older adults. The vaccine may help protect you from RSV disease.
This study gives (or follows) typhoid and/or cholera vaccines and measures how your immune system responds. It is done in adults who are already scheduled for an upper endoscopy (EGD) and/or colonoscopy, using small tissue samples if appropriate.
This study looks at how gut bacteria and the immune system respond in infants with severe RSV infection, to better understand the disease and find new ways to treat or prevent it.
