BACKGROUND
This single blind study was conducted to address safety concerns regarding coadministration of diphtheria/ tetanus (DT,Td) boosters and meningococcal C conjugate (MCC) vaccines containing diphtheria or tetanus conjugate proteins.
METHODS
1754 subjects (835 preschoolers and 919 school
BACKGROUND
New vaccination strategies are needed to control the increasing problem of pertussis in teenagers and adults.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of a diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (dTpa) vaccine with reduced antigen content.
METHODS
A single dose of the
This study was conducted to assess the immunogenicity and safety of a tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine containing three pertussis antigens (Boostrix, Tdap3v), currently licensed in the US for use in adolescents 10-18 years of age, in adults 19-64
OBJECTIVE
We compared the diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and bicomponent acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) responses in Japanese and United States infants.
METHODS
This was a double-blind, comparative study.
METHODS
Private pediatric practices in Japan and the U.S. participated.
METHODS
One hundred
BACKGROUND
Diphtheria toxin (DT) has shown anticancer activity in both experimental models and humans but its adverse effects stopped further developments. Cross-reacting Material 197 (CRM197) is the product of a single missense mutation (Gly52 to Glu) within fragment A of DT. It has been shown to
BACKGROUND
Universal immunization of adolescents against meningococcal disease with a quadrivalent meningococcal ACWY (MenACWY) conjugate vaccine is recommended in a number of countries.
METHODS
In a randomized, controlled, observer-blinded, multicenter trial, 1016 participants, 10-25 years of age,
Chronic renal failure (CRF) is associated with oxidative stress that promotes production of reactive oxygen species. L-Carnitine is a cofactor required for transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondrial matrix. Recent research has shown that some clinical conditions (i.e., anorexia,
Vaccinating infants against hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the most effective way of preventing the disease. However, since HBV exposure can increase during adolescence, it is essential that antibody persistence is maintained. We evaluated the antibody persistence and immune memory against hepatitis B,
A trimethylated amino acid roughly similar in structure to choline, carnitine is a cofactor required for transformation of free long-chain fatty acids into acylcarnitines, and for their subsequent transport into the mitochondrial matrix, where they undergo beta-oxidation for cellular energy
E7777, a recombinant cytotoxic fusion protein comprising diphtheria toxin fragments A and B and human interleukin-2, shares an amino acid sequence with denileukin diftitox but has improved purity and an increased percentage of active protein monomer species. A phase I study was carried out to
