Study Design: This is a Phase I open-label study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a recombinant DNA vaccine, VRC-WNVDNA020-00-VP. The hypothesis is that this regimen will be safe for human administration and elicit a higher titer of neutralizing antibody response than a prior
Study Design: This is a Phase I open label study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and immune response of a recombinant DNA vaccine, VRC-WNVDNA017-00-VP. The hypothesis is that this regimen will be safe for human administration and elicit immune responses to the West Nile virus. The primary
Investigation of the Natural History of West Nile Virus Infection in Patients with Recently Acquired West Nile Fever or Neuroinvasive Disease is a descriptive natural history study. Since the first reports of WNV disease in North America in 1999, geographic range has expanded, a trend that is
The purpose of this study is to assess whether Omr-IgG-am™, an intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) containing antibodies specific for West Nile virus (WNV), is safe and well-tolerated in patients with suspected or laboratory diagnosed WNV disease. An initial estimation of efficacy will also be made.
