Vaccines Treatment Options in San Diego, CA

The purpose of this study is to compare two flu vaccines to determine their safety and ability to stimulate an immune response in HIV infected children and adolescents. This study will also determine how often and how long people who receive a vaccine are able to spread flu vaccine virus to other people. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine immune system function following vaccination in HIV-infected children currently taking anti-HIV drugs. To test the effectiveness of prior vaccination, patients in this study will receive booster shots of one of two pneumococcal vaccines, a hepatitis B vaccine, and a measles vaccine. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine if 2 doses of Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) followed by 1 dose of Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPV) in HIV-infected children on anti-HIV therapy is helpful and safe in fighting pneumococcal infections in this group of children. This study will also look at the protection provided by childhood vaccination against measles, pertussis, and hepatitis B virus. Pneumococcal infections are the most common AIDS-related infection in HIV-infected children. PCV may help reduce the chances of HIV-infected children getting pneumococcal infections. This study will look at whether pneumococcal vaccines are safe and effective in HIV-infected children receiving HAART. It will look at whether HIV-infected children are protected by childhood vaccines received previously and if more doses are safe and improve protection. Read Less

To assess whether HIV-infected infants who receive a heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine have more local reactions at the site of injection and systemic reactions than placebo subjects. To assess whether this vaccine is more immunogenic than placebo following the third vaccination. Children with HIV infection are at increased risk for invasive pneumococcal infection, particularly bacteremia. A large proportion of pneumococcal disease is caused by a limited number of serotypes. The maximum number of pneumococcal serotypes that can be included in a new conjugate vaccine is felt to be limited by the amount of carrier protein. A heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been developed that consists of pneumococcal capsular saccharides from serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F bound to a diphtheria toxin mutant carrier protein.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the ability of H5 influenza virus vaccines and adjuvants present in the National Pre-Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Stockpile (NPIVS) to generate an immune response to homologous and to antigenically distant heterologous H5 influenza virus strains. The study is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of vaccination strategies with homologous or antigenically distant heterologous H5 influenza virus vaccines administered with AS03 or MF59 adjuvant.

This phase I/II study is designed to compare different treatment schedules of a personalized anti-cancer vaccine protocol which combines the cryoablation of a selected metastatic lesion with intra-tumor immunotherapy. The cryoablation causes the tumor to release tumor-specific antigens into the surrounding environment. The injection of bioengineered allogeneic immune cells, AlloStim(TM), into the lesion is designed to modulate the immune response and educate the immune system to kill other tumor cells. Read Less

This study used 3 different formulations of tetravalent CYD dengue vaccine. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the neutralizing antibody response after 2 doses of two different formulations of tetravalent dengue vaccine administered at Month 0 and Month 6. The secondary objectives were: * To evaluate the safety of the 3 formulations of tetravalent CYD dengue vaccine. * To describe the neutralizing antibody responses to each of the 3 vaccine formulations. * To describe vaccine viremia after the first and second dose of each of the 3 vaccine formulations in a subset of participants.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and lot-to-lot consistency of an investigational hepatitis B virus vaccine, HEPLISAV™, in healthy adults 40 to 70 years of age Read Less

The main purpose of this clinical study is to see if a maintenance dose of GEN-003 reduces the number of days that subjects have a genital herpes recurrence. The second purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a maintenance dose of GEN-003. Read Less

This is a study to assess the immune (antibody) response and safety of a Seqirus split virion, inactivated Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Seqirus QIV), in comparison with a US licensed 2016/2017 Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (comparator QIV) in a healthy pediatric population 6 months through 59 months of age.

The primary purpose of this study is to see if a herpes vaccine may prevent genital herpes disease in women who are not infected. The study will enroll approximately 7550 healthy women. These women will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 possible study groups: herpes vaccine (experimental group) or hepatitis A vaccine (control group). Participants will receive their assigned vaccine at 0, 1, and 6 months. Participants will have 9 scheduled study visits and additional unscheduled visits for an evaluation of herpes if it is suspected. Participants will be involved in study related procedures for up to 20 months. Read Less

Human Papilloma virus (HPV) are viruses that cause a common infection of the skin and genitals in men and women. Several types of HPV infection are transmitted by sexual activity and, in women, can infect the cervix (part of the uterus or womb). This infection often goes away by itself, but if it does not go away (this is called persistent infection), it can lead in women over a long period of time to cancer of the cervix. If a woman is not infected by HPV, it is very unlikely that she will get cervical cancer. This study will evaluate the efficacy of GSK Biologicals HPV 16/18 VLP/AS04 vaccine to prevent infection associated cervical pre-cancer and vaccine with HPV 16 or 18 and the vaccine safety, over 48 months, in young adolescents and women of 15/25 years of age at study start. Approximately 18.000 study subjects will either receive the HPV vaccine or a control vaccine (hepatitis A vaccine) administered intramuscularly according to a 0-1-6 month schedule. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. Read Less
