Myocardial Injury and Outcomes Following COVID-19 Vaccination (MYOVAX Study)

The study will focus on cardiac blood and imaging biomarkers to facilitate early recognition of patients at risk for myocardial injury after COVID-19 vaccination. Ultimately, the intention is to identify patients at risk, reduce adverse events, and determine the need for longer-term follow-up in patients with myocardial injury after vaccination.

A Study to Investigate the Immunogenicity and Safety of mRNA COVID-19 Variant-containing Vaccine Formulations

The purpose of this study is to investigate the immunogenicity and safety of mRNA COVID-19 variant-containing vaccine formulations against the vaccine-matched variants and newly emerged variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Use and Effectiveness of COVID-19 Vaccines Using State Vaccine Registries and Insurance Claims Data

This study aims to use vaccination information from state vaccine registries linked with HealthVerity insurance claims for the following: * to measure how effective the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is at preventing post-COVID conditions. * to understand characteristics of patients who are receiving COVID-19 vaccines. All patients whose information is kept unidentified in the HealthVerity database are eligible to be included for both aims of this study.

SARS-COV-2 Seroprevalence and Seroconversion Among Employees of the UZ Brussel Following COVID-19 Vaccination Using an Adenoviral Vector

A novel zoonotic coronavirus was discovered in Wuhan (Hubei Province, China) mid-December 2019 and was named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus rapidly spread to the rest of the world, including Europe and explicitly affects the respiratory system, generating Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Employees of the university hospital of Brussels (UZ Brussel) presenting symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 are offered to be tested with real-time PCR on nasopharyngeal swabs. As asymptomatic infections have been described and as the PCR can be negative when taken late after onset of symptoms, serologic tests can be performed. The SARS-CoV 2003 epidemic demonstrated that serological assays were a useful diagnostic tool of non-acute infections. Although it is still uncertain whether convalescing patients have a risk of re-infection, recent data suggest that SARS-CoV-2 antibodies could protect at least for some time from subsequent viral exposures. As the COVID-19 pandemic had devastating medical, economic and social consequences, safe and effective prophylactic vaccines were urgently needed. And thus several candidate vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been developed. The vaccination campaign of the health care workers of the UZ Brussel started mid January 2021. The first available vaccine was the BNT162b2 (Pfizer) vaccine. Early March 2021, in order to accelerate the vaccination of the UZ Brussel employees, the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD12222) (Oxford, AstaZeneca) vaccination program was implemented in parallel with the BNT162b2 vaccination program In the COVEMUZ-2 study the investigators have already started to document the SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and seroconversion among vaccinated employees (using BNT162b2) in the UZ Brussels. In this study, the investigators aim to prospectively document the SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and seroconversion among vaccinated employees (using ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) of the UZ Brussel, at three different time points, namely 6 weeks (+/- 2 weeks; T1), 6 months (+/- 1 month; T2) and 12 months (+/- 1 month; T3) after the second vaccination.

Korea Comirnaty Post-marketing Surveillance

This study will collect information on the safety of BNT162b2 products for subjects who have been administered in a routine clinical practice from 05Mar2021 to 04Mar2027 in Korea, and will be conducted in accordance with the New Drug Re-Examination Guideline of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS).

Study on Safety and Efficacy of Two Doses of PRS CK STORM in the Modulation of the Cytokine Storm for the Treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Caused by SARS-Cov-2, Influenza A, Influenza B and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of two doses (dose A and dose B) of Standardized Conditioned Medium Obtained by Coculture of Monocytes and fat-derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (PRS CK STORM) in the modulation of the cytokine storm for the treatment of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by SARS-Cov-2, influenza A, influenza B and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in recently hospitalized participants (less than 3 days) in need for oxygen therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Are both doses of PRS CK STORM (dose A and dose B) safe as an intravenous drug to modulate inflammatory processes, such as the cytokine storm for the treatment of ARDS caused by SARS-Cov-2, influenza A, influenza B and RSV? * Are both doses of PRS CK STORM (dose A and dose B) effective as an intravenous drug to modulate ARDS-associated cytokine storm caused by SARS-Cov-2, influenza A, influenza B and RSV compared to the control group? * What are the anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokine profiles after treatment with two different doses of PRS CK STORM in participants hospitalized for ARDS caused by SARS-Cov-2, influenza A, influenza B and RSV? Researchers will compare both doses of PRS CK STORM with the control group to test whether the anti-inflammatory action of PRS CK STORM is safe and effective in modulating the cytokine storm for the treatment of ARDS caused by SARS-Cov-2, influenza A, influenza B and RSV. In addition, the anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokine profiles after treatment PRS CK STORM compared to placebo group in these participants will be also studied.

Viral Infection of HSPC Impacts Hematopoiesis

We propose to demonstrate that HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 are capable of targeting long-lived HSPC with self-renewal capacities. These progenitors, thus transformed into host cells, can give rise to a durable source of infected cells with an impact on hematopoiesis.

Post-marketing Surveillance (PMS) Use-Result Surveillance With SPIKEVAX BIVALENT and SPIKEVAX X Injection.

The main objective of the surveillance is to evaluate the incidence of the adverse events (AEs), and other safety related information in South-Korean population.

Extended Remdesivir Infusion Combined With Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir for Persistent SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Immunocompromised Patients

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of extended remdesivir infusion, targeting on immunocompromised individuals who had positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR despite an oral antiviral agent prescription.

Safety and Immunogenicity of Glycovax-002 Vaccine in Healthy Adults

Glycovax Pharma has developed a glycoconjugate vaccine candidate called Glycovax-002 to fight the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) at the origin of COVID-19. The aim of the study is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of Glycovax-002 in humans. The study is a phase I, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study conducted in 36 healthy females and males aged between 18 and 55 years old. The vaccine will be administered three times with a two-week time interval between each dose. Dose escalation is conducted in three steps. At each step, 9 participants receiving the vaccine will be randomized with 3 participants receiving placebo (normal saline). Progression to next step is conditional to a DSMB's approval.

Immunity to Infection in Healthy Participants and Participants With Cancer

Many cancer patients are highly susceptible to infection and respond poorly to vaccination. This observational study will determine molecular and cellular features of immunity to viral pathogens in participants with cancer and compare them to healthy controls. The aim is to identify how antiviral immunity in participants with cancer differs from that in healthy participants to understand why cancer patients are more susceptible to infections. In this context, the investigators will also evaluate immunity to medically indicated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and seasonal influenza vaccine received by study participants during standard care (vaccines are not part of the study).
