A Phase 1 dose escalating study of ETEC candidate vaccine to determine safety and immunogenicity of a multi-dose regimen in healthy adult volunteers. The study will be conducted at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC). The primary objectives assess the safety and tolerability of dmLT vaccine when administered in three doses sublingually over a range of dosages in healthy adult subjects. The secondary objectives assess long-term safety follow-up from immunization through Month 7 post vaccination, following three SL doses of dmLT vaccine over a range of dosages and comparing with three doses of a comparable dosage of oral vaccine. The study subject population is 52 healthy adult male and female subjects, ages 18 to 45. Subject participation duration is approximately 8 months with study duration of approximately 1.5-2 years, including 6-7 months of follow-up. Read Less

Main goal of this study is to compare the occurrence of serious adverse events (SAEs) between the herpes simplex (gD2-AS04) vaccine group and the Saline control group throughout the study period (up to month 12). The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. Read Less

This is a study to assess the immune (antibody) response and safety of a Seqirus split virion, inactivated Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Seqirus QIV), in comparison with a US licensed 2016/2017 Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (comparator QIV) in a healthy pediatric population 6 months through 59 months of age.

This is a Phase I, dose escalation study in healthy adolescents and children (6-17 years) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a prime-boost regimen of the 2012/2013 seasonal influenza DNA vaccine (HA DNA) followed by licensed 2012/2013 TIV vaccine. The comparator groups will receive licensed 2012/2013 TIV as prime and boost. The hypothesis is that the 2012/2013 HA DNA prime-TIV boost regimen will be safe and result in a broader and more durable immune response than is observed in age-matched comparator TIV-TIV groups.

The purpose of this study was to assess immunogenicity of a 3-dose versus 4-dose infant vaccination schedule including kinetics of immune response in the early phases of the series. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to characterize the immunogenicity \& safety of a booster dose of GSK Biologicals' meningococcal vaccine 134612 given at 12-15 months of age or at 15-18 months of age (co-administered with Infanrix®) in healthy toddlers primed with GSK Biological's Hib-meningococcal vaccine 792014. This study is single-blinded for the primary phase and open-label for the booster phase. Read Less

This study is evaluating the safety and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine compared to a control group receiving licensed Hib conjugate vaccine, each administered at 2, 4, and 6 months of age, and compared to licensed meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 polysaccharide vaccine administered at 3 to 5 years of age. The safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose of Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine will be compared to a booster dose of licensed Hib conjugate vaccine, each administered at 12 to 15 months of age. The group primed with the Hib conjugate vaccine will re-randomized at 12-15 months of age to receive a booster dose of Hib-MenCY-TT or a booster dose of the Hib conjugate vaccine. Read Less

The primary purpose of this study is to see if a herpes vaccine may prevent genital herpes disease in women who are not infected. The study will enroll approximately 7550 healthy women. These women will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 possible study groups: herpes vaccine (experimental group) or hepatitis A vaccine (control group). Participants will receive their assigned vaccine at 0, 1, and 6 months. Participants will have 9 scheduled study visits and additional unscheduled visits for an evaluation of herpes if it is suspected. Participants will be involved in study related procedures for up to 20 months. Read Less

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving booster vaccinations may make a stronger immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of cancer. PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of poly-ICLC + MUCI peptide vaccine in boosting the immunologic response to MUCI in patients with triple-negative BC Read Less

The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate relative effectiveness of high dose influenza vaccine in preventing influenza mortality, hospitalization, and functional decline in a nursing home population in the U.S., compared to the standard dose trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine.

This study will further evaluate the ACAM-CDIFF™ vaccine in a population of middle-aged to elderly individuals at risk of exposure to Clostridium difficile because of impending hospitalization or residence in a care facility. Primary Objectives: * To describe the safety profile of subjects in each of the study groups. * To describe the immune responses elicited by toxoid A and toxoid B of subjects in each of the study groups. Observational Objective: * To describe the occurrence of first-time Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) episodes. Read Less

This is a prospective randomized clinical trial that aims to evaluate the potential effects of the first dose of rotavirus vaccines on gastrointestinal motility and anatomy and blood and stool cytokine responses. It will also assess the association between these outcomes and the pattern of the shedding of vaccine strain rotavirus in the stool. Infants will be randomized to one of four arms: monovalent rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix®, RV1) alone, RV1 with other recommended vaccines, pentavalent rotavirus vaccine (RotaTeq®, RV5) alone, or RV5 with other recommended vaccines. Data derived from the pilot study will be used to assess the feasibility of conducting a larger scale study. Read Less
