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.

The aim of the study is to evaluate a prototype quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV), the licensed 2010-2011 trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) containing the primary B strain (B1), and the investigational TIV containing the alternate B (B2) strain in children. Primary Objective: To demonstrate non-inferiority of antibody responses to QIV compared with licensed 2010-2011 TIV (containing the primary B strain) and investigational TIV (containing the alternate B strain) as assessed by geometric mean titer (GMT) ratios for each of the four virus strains separately among children aged 6 months to less than 9 years of age Secondary Objective: To demonstrate superiority of antibody responses to each B strain in QIV compared with antibody titers following vaccination with the TIV that does not contain the corresponding B strain, as assessed by GMT ratios and seroconversion rates. Observational Objective: To describe the safety profile of QIV among subjects 6 months to less than 9 years of age, as assessed by solicited injection site and systemic adverse events (AEs) collected for 7 days post-vaccination, unsolicited adverse events collected from 21 days post-vaccination, and adverse events of special interest and serious adverse events (SAEs) collected from Visit 1 to Visit 2.

The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose compared to standard dose Fluzone for laboratory-confirmed or culture-confirmed influenza caused by influenza types/subtypes that are similar (for laboratory-confirmed) or antigenically similar (for culture-confirmed) to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations. Primary Objective: * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to laboratory-confirmed influenza caused by any influenza viral types/subtypes, associated with the occurrence of a protocol-defined influenza-like-illnesses (ILI). Secondary Objectives: * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to laboratory-confirmed influenza, caused by any influenza viral types/subtypes, associated with the occurrence of a protocol-defined ILI. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to culture-confirmed influenza, caused by any influenza viral types/subtypes, associated with the occurrence of a protocol-defined ILI. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to culture-confirmed influenza caused by viral types/subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations, associated with the occurrence of a modified Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-defined ILI. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to culture-confirmed influenza caused by any influenza viral types/subtypes, associated with the occurrence of a modified CDC-defined ILI. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to culture-confirmed influenza caused by viral types/subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations, associated with the occurrence of a respiratory illness. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High-Dose to that of Fluzone in elderly adults, with respect to culture-confirmed influenza caused by any influenza viral types/subtypes, associated with the occurrence of a respiratory illness.

The present phase III study aims to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of MF59-adjuvanted subunit seasonal influenza vaccine and to evaluate the consistency in the manufacturing process of three consecutive lots of MF59-adjuvanted subunit seasonal influenza vaccine with respect to immunogenicity in subjects aged 65 years and older. The active comparator non-adjuvanted seasonal influenza vaccine is approved for use in this age group in the United States and will be used to provide a comparative assessment for immunogenicity and safety.

RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining these two treatments may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining vaccine therapy with radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage II or stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been completely removed in surgery.

The primary objective of this phase 3b study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Novartis MenACWY conjugate vaccine when administered with routine infant vaccinations to healthy infants Read Less

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from tumor tissue may make the body build an immune response and kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer. Read Less

This randomized, parallel-group, open-label study will evaluate the effect of Actemra (tocilizumab) on vaccination in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to methotrexate and who have had an inadequate clinical response or were intolerant to treatment with one or more anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapies.

The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine and that of Fluzone® vaccine in the elderly. Primary objective: To measure the efficacy of the vaccine, defined as the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza caused by viral types/subtypes that are antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations. Secondary objectives: * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine with that of Fluzone® vaccine in elderly adults, with respect to laboratory-confirmed influenza illness caused by any type or subtype of influenza virus. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine with that of Fluzone® vaccine in elderly adults, in preventing culture-confirmed influenza illness caused by viral types/subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations.

This Phase 2(a) clinical trial is designed as a dose-blinded, block-randomized, multi-center study to select a dosage and schedule of rF1V vaccine for further studies based on the immune response up to Day 210. Additional immunogenicity and safety/reactogenicity data will be collected through Day 540. Selection of dosage and schedule will be based on GMCs and seroconversion rates for anti-F1, anti-V and anti-rF1V antibody titers. Approximately 400 healthy adult volunteers will be enrolled (100 per group) in this study. Read Less
