Vaccines Treatment Options in Minnesota

This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of dendritic cell therapy, cryosurgery and pembrolizumab in treating patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Vaccines, such as dendritic cell therapy made from a person's tumor cells and white blood cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Cryosurgery kills cancer cells by freezing them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving dendritic cell therapy, cryosurgery and pembrolizumab may work better at treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Read Less

This pilot clinical trial studies the safety and immunogenicity of vaccine therapy in treating patients with stage IIIC-IV ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer following surgery and chemotherapy. Vaccines made from a person's peptide treated white blood cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Read Less

An antibody is a substance your body makes to fight off infection. This study will explore the safety and antibody response of a vaccine to prevent severe diarrhea caused by a germ called Clostridoides difficile (C. diff). Three new formulations of the C. diff vaccine will be used in this study, in addition to a C. diff vaccine formulation that has been studied in previous clinical trials. The purpose of this study is to understand if giving the new C. diff vaccine formulations helps people make as many antibodies as giving the previously studied C. diff vaccine formulation. The study is divided into 2 phases. Phase 1 will evaluate 3 new formulations of the C. diff vaccine and 2 dosing schedules spread out over 2 months or 6 months. The Phase 1 portion of the study is seeking participants: * who are healthy adults of 65 to 84 years of age * who have not had a C. diff infection before * who have not received a C. diff vaccine or C. diff monoclonal antibody therapy before. All participants in Phase 1 will receive study injections with active vaccine or placebo at each vaccination visit, depending on the vaccine group to which they are assigned. A placebo does not contain any active ingredients. Participants in Phase 1 will attend at least 9 study visits and will take part in the study for approximately 18 months. Based on the results of Phase 1, 1 or 2 of the new C. diff vaccine formulations will be chosen for further study in Phase 2. Phase 2 will evaluate the safety and effects of the new C. diff vaccine formulation(s) chosen in Phase 1. The Phase 2 portion of the study is seeking participants: * who are healthy adults ≥65 years of age * who have not had a C. diff infection before * who have not received a C. diff vaccine or C. diff monoclonal antibody therapy before. Phase 2 participants will receive active C. diff vaccine or placebo at each vaccination visit. Participants in Phase 2 will attend at least 6 and up to 12 study visits and will take part in the study for up to 4 years. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine when co-administered with the high dose quadrivalent influenza (FLU HD) vaccine in adults aged 65 years and above compared to separate administration of the vaccines.

This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with stage II-III breast cancer or stage II-IV ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving vaccine therapy and cyclophosphamide may kill more tumor cells. Read Less

This phase Ib trial studies the safety and side effects of a vaccine (PolyPEPI1018 vaccine) in combination with TAS-102 in treating patients with colorectal that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). PolyPEPI1018 peptide vaccine is used to immunize against proteins present on the surface of tumor cells. This vaccine can activate the body's immune cells, called T cells. T cells fight infections and can also kill cancer cells. TAS-102 may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Giving PolyPEPI1018 and TAS-102 may kill more tumor cells in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Read Less

This study includes 3 parts: Parts A, B, and C. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of mRNA-1010 seasonal influenza vaccine in adults. Read Less

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of two monovalent Norovirus (NoV) oral tableted vaccine candidates, VXA-G1.1-NN and VXA-GII.4-NS co-administered (bivalent delivery) against a matching placebo arm. Bivalent GI.1 and GII.4 vaccines are being investigated for the prevention of noroviral gastroenteritis caused by norovirus GI.1 and GII.4. 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 I/II trial studies how well PDS0101 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab works to shrink tumor in patients with human papillomavirus-associated oropharynx cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). PDS0101 is a vaccine made from specific peptides that may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving PDS0101 with or without pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells in patients with locally advanced human papillomavirus-associated oropharynx cancer before surgery so that it may make the tumor smaller and may reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

The primary objectives of the study were: * To assess the safety profile of each dose of the study product after each and any administration in all infants and toddlers regardless of baseline serostatus. * To characterize the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) A serum neutralizing antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination in RSV-naïve participants. The secondary objectives of the study were: * To quantify the amount of vaccine virus shed by each participant by baseline serostatus. * To determine the proportion of vaccinated infants and toddlers in each vaccine group infected with the vaccine virus at D56 (56 days after vaccination 1) for Cohorts 1, 2, 3 and 4, and at Day 84 (28 days after vaccination 2) for Cohorts 2 and 4 by baseline serostatus. * To characterize the RSV A serum neutralizing antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination in RSV-experienced participants. * To characterize serum RSV anti-F immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination by baseline serostatus. * To characterize serum RSV antibody responses (RSV A-neutralizing and anti-RSV F IgG) to the study product in each vaccine group after the RSV surveillance season or at least 5 months after the last vaccine administration by baseline serostatus.

The study is designed as a Phase II, multicenter trial of vaccination with Dendritic cell/myeloma fusions with granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) adjuvant plus lenalidomide maintenance therapy versus maintenance therapy alone or with GM-CSF following autologous transplant as part of upfront treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). It is hypothesized that the dendritic cell myeloma vaccine will result in improved response in patients with multiple myeloma after autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT). Read Less
