Vaccines Treatment Options in Georgia

This study is the first phase of a trial examining decision making about vaccines. This phase tests the impact of targeted vaccine-focused health messages on vaccine beliefs held by parents of young children and pre-adolescents. The participant's vaccine beliefs will be assessed at baseline. Two weeks later, the participant's moral matrix will be assessed. A vaccine-related message that appeals to the individual's three most or least emphasized moral foundations will then be presented. Immediately afterwards, vaccine beliefs will be assessed to determine the impact of the message. Read Less

This is a study to assess the immune (antibody) response and safety of a bioCSL split virion, inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine, in comparison with a US licensed 2014/2015 trivalent influenza vaccine (bioCSL TIV-1), and a trivalent influenza vaccine containing the alternate B strain (bioCSL TIV-2), in healthy adult volunteers aged 18 years and above.

This study will investigate a Clostridium difficile vaccine in healthy adults aged 50 to 85 years, who will each receive 3 doses of vaccine. The study will assess the safety and tolerability of the vaccine, and also look at the subjects' immune response to the vaccine. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of two serogroup B meningococcal vaccines in comparison to placebo administered to healthy adolescents ages 11 to 18 years. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of 13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine when given concomitantly with seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine to adults 50 years and older who have previously received 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate different doses of the Influenza A/H1N1 pandemic vaccine in toddlers and children. Primary Objectives: * To describe the immunogenicity of the candidate vaccines after each injection. * To describe the safety of the candidate vaccines after each injection. Read Less

This is a modified single-blind, randomized, parallel-group, comparative, multicenter study to test Menactra vaccine in toddlers. Primary Objectives: * To evaluate the antibody responses induced by Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and Varicella (MMRV) vaccine when administered alone or concomitantly with Menactra vaccine. * To evaluate the antibody responses induced by Pneumococcal Conjugated Vaccine (PCV) when administered alone or concomitantly with Menactra vaccine. Observational Objectives: Safety - To describe the safety profile throughout the course of the study from Day 0 up to 6 months after the last study vaccination\[s\]) in subjects in the study groups. Immunogenicity: - To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135, 30 days after the first and second Menactra vaccine administration in a subset of subjects in the first study group.

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety of two injections of Menactra® Vaccine in subjects at 9 months and at 12 months of age when the second dose is given concomitantly with other pediatric vaccines routinely administered in the US. Safety Objective: To describe the safety profile of two doses of Menactra® Vaccine. Read Less

Primary Objective: To describe the safety of the 2004-2005 pediatric formulation of the inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine Fluzone®, given in the two-dose schedule (described in the package insert for vaccine-naïve young children) to the investigational and control groups. Observational Objective: To describe the percentage of protective Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) antibody titers (following a 2-dose Fluzone® immunization series) to each of the 3 vaccine antigens among the investigational and control groups. Read Less

Primary objective: To evaluate the clinical activity of the vaccine regimen, as indicated by progression-free survival versus the clinical activity of the reference treatment. Secondary objectives: Safety: To describe the safety profile in both treatment groups. Efficacy: To determine the objective clinical responses of patients in both treatment groups: complete response and partial response. Read Less

The study is to compare the 2 Groups with respect to antibody responses to inactivated influenza vaccine. Observational Objectives: * To describe the percentage of participants with protective Hemagglutinin (HAI) antibody titers to each of the 3 vaccine antigens in both study groups following each vaccination. * To describe the HAI geometric mean titer (GMTs) to each of the 3 vaccine antigens in both study groups following each vaccination. * To describe the safety of the 2005-2006 pediatric formulation of Fluzone® vaccine in both study groups.

This is a Phase 1b, randomized study in healthy younger (18-50 years) and older (51-70 years) adults to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a prime-boost vaccination regimen with an investigational plasmid DNA vaccine directed towards the 2011/12 influenza vaccine strains as a prime followed 36 weeks later by the 2012/13 influenza trivalent inactivated vaccine (TIV) as the booster injection, as compared to placebo prime followed by the 2012/13 seasonal TIV. The hypothesis is that the DNA vaccine will be safe for human administration and that the DNA vaccine prime-TIV boost schedule will elicit a better immune response than the seasonal TIV alone.
