Yellow Fever Human Infection Model With YF-17D

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Yellow Fever
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05901454
Lead Sponsor
Leiden University Medical Center
Brief Summary

No antiviral treatment exists for yellow fever, only supportive care, and therefore we rely on prevention through vaccination. Although this vaccine is very effective, stockpiles are insufficient in outbreak situations and some people have a contraindication to be vaccinated. For those who are unprotected and at risk of yellow fever infection, treatment could be life saving.
