Vaccines Treatment Options in San Francisco, CA

Multicenter, randomized, single-blinded comparison of two formulations of the rF1V vaccine at a single dosage of 80 µg and two 3-dose schedules in 400 healthy, adult volunteers in four parallel cohorts. Two rF1V vaccine cohorts (N=160 each) and two rF1V antigen-only cohorts (N=40 each) will be vaccinated at two different three-dose schedules (Days 0, 56 and 182 or Days 0, 56 and 121). Read Less

This study will enroll patients who have metastatic pancreatic cancer with stable disease on FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy. The main purpose of this study is to compare survival between patients that receive ipilimumab and a pancreatic tumor vaccine and patients who continue to receive FOLFIRINOX.

The aims of this trial are to demonstrate the consistency of three manufacturing lots of GSK Biologicals' DTaP-IPV candidate vaccine in terms of immunogenicity and to evaluate the non-inferiority of GSK Biologicals' DTaP-IPV vaccine with respect to immunogenicity and safety compared to the control vaccines (separate injections of GSK Biologicals' DTaP vaccine \[Infanrix\] and Aventis Pasteur's IPV vaccine \[IPOL\]) when administered as a 5th dose of DTaP and a 4th dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine in subjects 4 to 6 years of age. Vaccines will be co-administered with the second dose of M-M-RII, which is recommended at this age. Concomitant administration of a US-licensed influenza vaccine will be allowed according to seasonal availability of vaccine and at the discretion of the investigator. 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

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

Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) has been clearly established as the central cause of cervical cancer. This study will further evaluate induction of immune memory and anamnestic responses in women who previously took part in the primary study (580299/001) and follow-up study (580299/007). Subjects were aged 15-25 yrs at the time of entry into the primary study and participation in the follow-up study lasted approximately 6 years. In the primary and follow-up studies, subjects were protected against HPV-16 and HPV-18 endpoints and had sustained antibody responses to both vaccine types over at least 5.5 years of follow-up. All subjects from North American study sites that completed the follow-up study will be invited to take part in the current study. The study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a dose of GSK Biologicals HPV vaccine (580299) in women who had been immunologically primed in the primary study. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. Read Less

This study evaluates the reduction in viral shedding after vaccination with a new formulation of GEN-003 in subjects with genital HSV-2 infection. Two-thirds of the participants will receive GEN-003, one-third will receive placebo. Read Less

This observer-blind study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' investigational Herpes Zoster (HZ) vaccine GSK1437173A in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected subjects, firstly enrolling subjects treated with antiretroviral therapy (ART) and with high CD4 T cell counts, and subsequently ART-treated subjects with low CD4 T cell counts, and ART-naïve subjects with high CD4 T cell counts. This Protocol Posting has been updated following Amendment 1 of the Protocol, August 2010. The impacted sections is exclusion criteria. Read Less

This is a voluntary study to allow subjects who received placebo while on GEN-003-002 to be randomized, in a blinded manner, to 1 of 6 active combinations of GEN-003 and Matrix-M2. Objectives: * To compare the impact on clinical Herpes Simplex Virus type-2 (HSV-2) disease among 6 different combinations of GEN-003 antigens and Matrix-M2 adjuvant measured by: * Time to first clinical and/or virologic recurrence after Dose 3 (Day 43) * Proportion of subjects who are recurrence free at 6 and 12 months after the last dose of vaccine * Lesion rate (percent of days with genital lesions present) during the post-vaccination follow-up period * Antiviral use. * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GEN-003 in combination with Matrix-M2.

This is a randomized, double-blind, factorial study to compare the reduction in viral shedding among 6 different combinations of GEN-003, a therapeutic HSV-2 vaccine and Matrix-M2 adjuvant. Secondary objectives of the study include: * Evaluation of the safety and tolerability of GEN-003 in combination with Matrix-M2 compared to placebo. * Comparison of the impact on clinical Herpes Simplex Virus type-2 (HSV-2) disease among the 6 different combinations of GEN-003 antigens and Matrix-M2 adjuvant measured by: * Time to first clinical and/or virologic recurrence, * Proportion of subjects who are recurrence free at 6 and 12 months after the last dose of vaccine, * Lesion rate (percent of days with genital lesions present) during the post-vaccination swabbing periods. * Evaluation of cellular and humoral responses to GEN-003 antigens. Additional objectives include: * Assessment of the correlation between immune responses and change in viral shedding or impact on clinical disease as defined above. * Determination of the recurrence rate in a subset of subjects not receiving suppressive antivirals throughout the study. Eligible subjects will enter a baseline period to collect anogenital swabs for 28 consecutive days prior to randomization. Each subject will receive up to 3 doses at 21 day intervals. Subjects will be followed for safety and immunologic response for 12 months following their last dose. Read Less
