Vaccines Treatment Options in Massachusetts

This phase IIb trial tests whether Tri-Ad5 in combination with N-803 works to prevent colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome. Each of the three injections in Tri-Ad5 vaccine contain a different substance that is in precancer and cancer cells. Injecting these substances may cause the immune system to develop a defense against cancer that recognizes and destroys any precancer and cancer cells that produce these proteins in the future. N-803 may increase immune responses to other vaccines. Giving Tri-Ad5 in combination with immune enhancing N-803 may lower the chance of developing colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome. Read Less

This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study, pregnant women will be randomly assigned to receive IIV and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially (7-14 days apart). All participants will receive an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine at Visit 1 (Day 1). Solicited local and systemic symptoms of reactogenicity will be assessed on day of visit for Visits 1 and 2 and daily during the 6 days following each visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI) will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Pregnant women will be followed through delivery with comprehensive obstetric and infant outcomes obtained from medical record review for 90 days post-delivery. Maternal serum samples will be collected for antibody titers relevant to Influenza and COVID-19 prior to vaccination, at Day 29 (both groups), as well as Days 36-43 if in sequential group. When feasible, maternal blood at delivery and cord blood serum will be analyzed for serological analyses of placental influenza and COVID-19 antibody transfer (cord blood: maternal antibody ratio) will be determined.

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety, tolerability, effectiveness and health outcomes data in eligible subjects who have participated in a Novartis ofatumumab clinical MS study. Vaccination sub-study The purpose of this research sub-study is to find out the effects of ofatumumab on the development of antibody responses to selected vaccines and keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) neo-antigen in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). COVID-19 sub-study: The purpose of this research sub-study is to explore the immune response following Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination in a subset of subjects on long-term ofatumumab 20 mg sc. Note: Novartis is not supplying the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Read Less

The goal of this study is to explore and evaluate whether a 2-dose schedule of Gardasil 9 among young and mid-adult women 16-45 years of age is generally safe and immunogenic, with an antibody response that is not inferior to that observed of a 3-dose schedule of Gardasil 9 among women aged 16-26 years old. The investigators thought that having a 2-dose vaccination regimen for individuals 16 to 45 would provide a more robust dataset than those of 27 to 45 years old. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety, and reactogenicity of mRNA-1083 as compared with active control, co-administered licensed influenza and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV 2) vaccines, in 2 independent age-group sub-study cohorts, healthy adults 65 years and older (Cohort A) and healthy adults 50 to \<65 years of age (Cohort B).

This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and how well cytomegalovirus (CMV)-modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) Triplex vaccine works in enhancing CMV-specific immunity and preventing CMV viremia in patients undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haploHCT) has advanced to become the predominant procedure for patients lacking a matched donor. Compared to matched related donor transplants, the rate of significant CMV infection is higher in patients undergoing a haploHCT. Significant CMV infection is associated with an increased risk of complications and death. Vaccination is the main preventative approach to limit complications and death in immunocompromised patients at high risk of post-stem cell transplant infections. CMV-MVA Triplex vaccine, is a CMV vaccine based on the attenuated poxvirus, modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA), developed to enhance CMV-specific immunity in both healthy stem cell transplant donors and stem cell transplant patients to prevent significant CMV infection post-stem cell transplant. Giving CMV-MVA triplex vaccine may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in enhancing cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific immunity and preventing CMV viremia in patients undergoing a haploHCT. Read Less

The main purpose of this study is to assess immune response and safety of various potencies of a measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella (MMRVNS) vaccines given to healthy children of 4 to 6 years of age. Read Less

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody response in terms of seroconversion rate 28 days after vaccine administration of one dose of yellow fever vaccine (vYF) compared to the antibody response after one dose of the YF-VAX control vaccine in yellow fever naïve participants. The secondary objectives of the study are: * To describe the immune response to yellow fever in both vaccine groups before and after vYF or YF-VAX administration. * To describe the safety profile of vYF vaccine in comparison to the safety profile of the control YF-VAX. * To describe the biosafety profile of vYF in comparison to the biosafety profile of the control YF-VAX.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single intramuscular injection of different formulations of a hexavalent influenza messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine composed of differing dose levels of trivalent (TIV) mRNA hemagglutinin (HA) in combination with TIV mRNA-neuraminidase (NA) compared to an active control ((Fluzone standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-SD) or Fluzone high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV-HD) in adults 50 years of age and older.

Study VBT00002 is planned to be a Phase 1/2, randomized, modified double-blind, active-controlled, multi-center study to be conducted in approximately 980 adults aged 50 years and older in the United States. The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) + adjuvanted recombinant COVID-19 vaccine (rC19) vaccine comprised of RIV combined with different recombinant Spike (rS) antigen levels of rC19 compared to RIV alone, rC19 (dose 1) alone, and RIV and rC19 (dose 1) (coadministered in opposite arms). Placebo will be coadministered in the RIV alone, rC19 (dose 1) alone, and RIV + rC19 study groups to control for the number of injections and to maintain observer blinding. Thus, each participant will receive two injections at enrollment, one in each deltoid muscle. Study details include: * The study duration will be approximately 12 months * Study intervention will be administered via a single intramuscular (IM) injection into the right and left deltoid muscles on Day(D) 01 * Dose escalation with sequential enrollment (sentinel cohort followed by main cohort for a given dose) * The visit frequency for participants will be D01 and D30, and D09-D366 (telephone call) Number of Participants: Approximately 980 participants are expected to be randomized.

Despite the availability of vaccines, there remains a need to identify specific immune responses that correlate with protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection. Additionally, the operational capability of retail pharmacy infrastructure to collect longitudinal data and biological samples needs to be assessed. This study aims to fill these gaps by determining correlates of protection (CoP), assessing the infrastructure's capability, and examining demographic and geographic differences in participation.

This is a global Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational study drug (called PF-06651600) in adults and adolescents (12 years and older) who have alopecia areata. Eligible patients from the prior studies B7931005 (NCT02974868) and B7981015 (NCT03732807) will have an opportunity to enroll as well as patients who have not previously participated in either of these studies. The study is open-label and all patients entering the study will receive active study drug. A sub-study of approximately 60 adult patients who are participating in the B7981032 study will be conducted at select sites in the US, Australia and Canada. The sub-study will evaluate the immune response to tetanus and meningococcal vaccines in patients who have received a minimum of 6 months of 50 mg PF-06651600. Read Less
