Vaccines Treatment Options in New York

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

In order to produce better more effective vaccines, it is important to understand the particulars of why individuals have an effective or ineffective immune response to vaccination. We are going to examine specific aspects of the antibody (IgG Fc glycan) made by healthy volunteers who receive different vaccines or who have a viral infection to understand the nature of an effective (or less effective) vaccine response. The results of this research could be used to develop adjuvants to increase/ improve vaccine response. Read Less

The aim of this first time in human proof of concept (FTiH-PoC) study is to evaluate safety and reactogenicity, to demonstrate efficacy and to explore immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) Neisseria gonorrhoeae generalized modules for membrane antigens (GMMA) (NgG) investigational vaccine compared to placebo (saline).

This is a randomized, multi-site, adaptive, open-label clinical trial comparing the immune response to different additional doses of COVID-19 vaccine in participants with autoimmune disease requiring IS medications. All study participants will have negative serologic or suboptimal responses (defined as a Roche Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S result ≤200 U/mL) or a low immune response (defined as a Roche Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S result \>200 U/ml and ≤2500 U/mL) to their previous doses of COVID-19 vaccine. The study will focus on 5 autoimmune diseases in adults: * Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) * Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) * Multiple Sclerosis (MS) * Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), and * Pemphigus. This study will focus on 4 autoimmune diseases in pediatric participants: * Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) * Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) * Pediatric-Onset Multiple Sclerosis (POMS) * Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM) Read Less

The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single injection of VAX-24 at 3 dose levels compared to Prevnar 20™ (PCV20) in adults 18 to 49 years of age in Phase 1. The Phase 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a single injection of VAX-24 at 3 dose levels compared to PCV20 in adults aged 50 to 64 years of age in Phase 2. Read Less

The investigator is developing an immune therapy against pancreatic cancer. Immune cells, known as "T cells with tumor killing capacity", are involved in this immune therapy. In mice with pancreatic cance there is evidence that one tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccination (that patients receive from childhood) combined with Gemcitabine activates these killer T cells. (Gemcitabine improves T cell responses) These killer T cells are able to destroy tumor cells uploaded with TT protein (such studies are planned in future clinical trials). The goal of this study is to test whether one TT vaccination combined with Gemcitabine treatment activates the same T cells in pancreatic cancer patients. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and immunogenicity over a 9-month period of five different dosages of Ad4-H5-Vtn in volunteers (Vaccinees) who receive three doses of the study vaccine or placebo. In addition, transmission of Ad4-H5-Vtn will be evaluated in all Household Contacts residing with the vaccinated volunteers. Vaccinees also may participate in a substudy in which they receive a booster vaccination with the licensed Influenza Virus Vaccine, H5N1 (Sanofi Pasteur). Read Less

The purpose of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of BioThrax anthrax vaccine in healthy adults following 3 doses of BioThrax. Results of this study will be used to support a post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) indication for BioThrax. This study will be conducted in the United States (U.S.), in 200 healthy male and female volunteer subjects ages 18 to 65 years. The duration of study participation for each individual subject will be approximately 128 days (4.25 months), including a screening period of approximately 28 days followed by 100 days on study.

This multicenter, randomized, open-label study will evaluate the immune response to vaccines (tetanus toxoid \[TT\]-containing adsorbed vaccine, 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine \[23-PPV\] either unboosted or boosted with 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine \[13-PCV\], influenza vaccine, keyhole limpet hemocyanin \[KLH\]) after administration of a dose of ocrelizumab (OCR) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS).

The purpose of this first time-in-human (FTiH) study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of different dose levels of an experimental rabies glycoprotein G (RG) vaccine (RG-SAM \[CNE\] vaccine), made using a new technology, when administered intramuscularly (IM) on a 0, 2, 6 \*-month schedule to healthy adults. \* There will be no vaccinations with the third dose of any of the study treatments.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the capability of a patient with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (WM) to generate an immune response to the Shingrix vaccine under first-line BTK inhibitors. Read Less

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 doses or 3 doses of GSK's licenced meningococcal group B Bexsero (rMenB+OMV NZ) vaccine and of 2 doses of GSK's investigational combined meningococcal (MenABCWY) vaccine (GSK3536819A) in healthy adolescents and young adults. The immunogenicity and safety were evaluated in the study. Read Less
