A Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Oral Armour Thyroid Compared to Synthetic T4 for the Treatment of Primary Hypothyroidism in Adult Participants
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Armour Thyroid treatment compared with synthetic T4 in subjects who have primary hypothyroidism and are currently stabilized (i.e., in-range thyroid-stimulating hormone \[TSH\]) on synthetic T4 treatment. This study will also therefore evaluate the efficacy and safety of dose conversion from synthetic T4 therapy to Armour Thyroid therapy.

A Study to Evaluate VXA-CoV2-3.3 COVID-19 Vaccine Against Currently Approved/Authorized mRNA COVID-19 Injectable Booster Vaccine in Adults Previously Immunized Against COVID-19 Infection
Recruiting
The primary objective of the study is to determine the relative efficacy of the investigational oral severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) vaccine tablet VXA-CoV2-3.3 compared to a currently recommended vaccine for the prevention of symptomatic Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). In order to represent a more recently circulating SARS-CoV-2 variant, the main study endpoints will now evaluate the VXA-CoV2-3.3 (KP.2 strain) vaccine, and not the VXA-CoV2-3.1 (XBB.1.5 strain)...
