Vaccines Treatment Options in Atlanta, GA

A prospective, randomized open-label clinical trial will be conducted from July 2018 to October 2020. Approximately 300 preterm infants will be enrolled across three sites: Duke University Medical Center, the University of North Carolina, and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. Eligible infants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 2-month US licensed childhood vaccines (PCV13, DTaP, HBV, IPV an Hib) or no vaccines. After their participation in the study, healthcare providers of the infants in the unvaccinated group will make decision abut receipt of their 2-month childhood vaccines. The study will collect data from the continuous cardiorespiratory and pulse oximetry monitors from randomization to 48 hours after randomization for infants in the unvaccinated group, and from randomization to 48 hours after vaccination for infants in the vaccinated group. Infants in both groups will be monitored for up to 60 hours for the occurrence of apnea, bradycardia, and oxygen desaturation. For infants in the "vaccinated" group, the study will also collect adverse events of clinical interest and serious adverse events occurring between the end of the 48-hour monitoring period and 14 days after vaccination. This information will be collected through parental report and review of medical records. Read Less

This is a Phase 1/2/3 study in healthy children. Dependent upon safety and/or immunogenicity data generated during the course of this study, and the resulting assessment of benefit-risk, the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of BNT162b2 in participants \<6 months of age may subsequently be evaluated.

This phase II trial studies how well TPIV100 and sargramostim work in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer that has residual disease after chemotherapy prior to surgery. It also studies why some HER2 positive breast cancer patients respond better to chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab. TPIV100 is a type of vaccine made from HER2 peptide that may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express HER2. Sargramostim increases the number of white blood cells in the body following chemotherapy for certain types of cancer and is used to alert the immune system. It is not yet known if TPIV100 and sargramostim will work better in treating patients with HER2 positive, stage II-III breast cancer. Read Less

Background: Allergic reactions have been reported to occur after vaccination with both the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. Allergic reactions range from mild to severe and include life- threatening anaphylactic reactions, although no deaths have been reported with either vaccine. This study is designed with two principal aims: * To estimate the proportions of systemic allergic reactions to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine in a High-Allergy/Mast Cell Disorder (HA/MCD) population, and * If the risk in the HA/MCD is demonstrable, to determine whether the proportions are higher in the HA/MCD in comparison to a representative population without severe allergies or mast cell disorders Read Less

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune response and safety of both GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals SA's (GSK's) herpes zoster (HZ) subunit (su) vaccine in healthy adults 50 years of age (YOA) and older and quadrivalent seasonal influenza (Flu D-QIV) vaccine in healthy adults 18 YOA and older, when administered sequentially or co-administered with Moderna's mRNA-1273 booster vaccination against COVID-19.

Safety, Immunogenicity and Efficacy of an Adjuvanted Quadrivalent Subunit Influenza Virus Vaccine Compared to Non-Adjuvanted Comparator Influenza Vaccine in Children ≥6 to \<72 Months of Age. The study was conducted during the 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 northern hemisphere influenza season. Read Less

This study evaluates an investigational vaccine that is designed to protect humans against infection with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and is administered as a nasal spray. Specifically, the study analyzes the safety of, and the immune response to, the vaccine when administered to healthy children between the ages of 6 and 24 months who are seronegative to RSV.

The purpose of this study is to provide critical information on the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity profile of the investigational recombinant chimpanzee adenovirus Type 155-vectored RSV (ChAd155-RSV) vaccine in infants likely to be unexposed to RSV and will assess a single lower dose and a higher two dose regimen, before moving to future studies. This study will also assess if there is a risk of 'vaccine-induced enhanced RSV disease' after vaccination of these infants with the ChAd155-RSV vaccine. Read Less

The primary objective of the study is to compare the clinical efficacy of high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-HD) to standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-SD) in participants 6 months through 35 months of age for the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness caused by any influenza A or B type. The secondary objectives of the study are: * To compare QIV-HD to QIV-SD: * in participants 6 months through 35 months of age for the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness caused by any influenza A or B type using a more stringent threshold * in participants 6 months through 35 months of age for the prevention of laboratory-confirmed protocol-defined influenza-like illness caused by viral strains similar to those contained in the vaccine. * in participants 6 months through 23 months of age for the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness caused by any influenza A or B types. * To compare hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) immune response of QIV-HD to QIV-SD in participants 6 months through 35 months of age * To describe the HAI, seroneutralization (SN), and anti-neuraminidase (NA) immune response * To describe the immune response to revaccination in Season 3 (Northern Hemisphere) * To describe the safety profile of each vaccine Read Less

The objectives of this study were: * To describe the safety of each dosage of high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-HD) used in the study during the 28 days following each vaccination, and serious adverse events (including adverse events of special interest throughout the study). * To describe the antibody response induced by each dosage of QIV-HD used in the study compared with unadjuvanted standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-SD) by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) measurement method. * To describe the antibody response induced by each dosage of QIV-HD used in the study compared with unadjuvanted QIV-SD by virus seroneutralization (SN) measurement method. * To describe the antibody response induced by the highest acceptable dosage of QIV-HD compared with adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) by HAI and virus SN measurement methods.

INVESTED will test the hypothesis that high dose trivalent influenza vaccine will reduce cardiopulmonary events to a greater extent than standard dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine in high-risk cardiovascular patients with a recent history of myocardial infarction or heart failure. The trial will enroll 9300 participants over one Vanguard (pilot) season and three additional influenza seasons. The primary endpoint will be a composite of all-cause mortality or cardiopulmonary hospitalization. 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.
