Vaccines Treatment Options in New York

This phase Ib trial evaluates the safety and most effective dose of a cytomegalovirus (CMV) pp65 peptide-loaded alpha-type-1 polarized dendritic cell (CMV-alphaDC1) vaccination in patients who are undergoing an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. CMV is an opportunistic infection that can occur or reactivate after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant as a result of immunosuppression. The CMV-alphaDC1 vaccine is made of white blood cells that have been exposed to molecules called cytokines, as well as CMV proteins. Introducing these dendritic cells to the patients immune system may activate an immune response to CMV, protecting against infection or reactivation. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a combination of an investigational WT1 vaccine and another drug called nivolumab. This is the first time that the WT1 vaccine and nivolumab are being used in combination. Also, to test the safety of a combination of an investigational NY-ESO-1 vaccine and another drug called nivolumab. Read Less

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

Safety, Immunogenicity of an Adjuvanted Quadrivalent Subunit Influenza Virus Vaccine Compared to Non-Adjuvanted Comparator Influenza Vaccine in Children Previously Vaccinated in Trial V118_05 Read Less

The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines (PCVs) V114 and Prevnar 13™ in healthy infants switched from Prevnar 13™ to V114 during the four-dose PCV immunization schedule. Read Less

This was a Phase 1, open-label, non-randomized study of the combination of NY-ESO-1 plus ipilimumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma for whom treatment with ipilimumab was indicated. Patients must have had evidence of NY-ESO-1 or LAGE-1 tumor positivity and radiologically measurable disease by the immune-related Response Criteria (irRC). Primary study objectives were to determine the safety and tolerability of the combination and to evaluate humoral and cellular immune response. Secondary objectives were to evaluate tumor response and immunological changes in the tumor microenvironment. Read Less

Vaccine adjuvants are compounds used to increase specific immune responses to antigens, but have minimal toxicity or lasting immune effects on their own. This study investigates the use of dendritic cells as an adjuvant for NY-ESO-1 and Melan-A/MART-1 peptides compared to Montanide® in study subjects with melanoma in complete clinical remission.

This Phase 1 and Phase 2 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of V116 when administered to adults. Phase 1 has no formal hypothesis. The primary hypotheses for Phase 2 are: V116 is noninferior to Pneumovax™23 as measured by the serotype-specific opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) for the common serotypes at 30 days postvaccination and that the serotype-specific OPA GMTs for the unique serotypes in V116 at 30 days postvaccination are statistically significantly greater following vaccination with V116 than those following vaccination with Pneumovax™23.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immune responses of two doses of the investigational RSV vaccines (with different formulations), when administered intramuscularly (IM) according to a 0, 2 month schedule, in older adults aged 60 to 80 years. As the investigational vaccines have not yet been tested in humans before, the study will first assess the safety, reactogenicity and immune responses in young adults aged 18 to 40 years. The study will thus be conducted in 2 parts (Part A and Part B). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of and immune response to a two-vaccine regimen in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults who have never received an HIV preventive vaccine before. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine and the MVA/HIV62B vaccine in healthy, HIV-1-uninfected adults who previously received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA vaccine regimens in the HVTN 205 study. 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. Read Less
