Vaccines Treatment Options in Tennessee

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immune response to the Vaccine Research Center (VRC) rAd5 HIV vaccine when the vaccine components are administered in three different ways, in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety and preliminary immune response to recombinant adenoviral serotype 35 and 5 HIV-1 vaccines in HIV-uninfected adults. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety of and immune response to a DNA HIV vaccine followed by an adenoviral vector HIV vaccine in HIV uninfected adults. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immune response to different combinations of two experimental HIV vaccines-the DNA-HIV-PT123 vaccine and the AIDSVAX® B/E vaccine-in healthy adults who are not infected with HIV. Read Less

Some vaccines may work better when given together with another substance known as an adjuvant or when given with an experimental procedure called electroporation (EP). EP is a method where an electric pulse is administered to the same muscle where the vaccine injection is given. The addition of the adjuvant to the vaccine and the delivery with EP may increase a person's immune response to the vaccine. Combination approaches such as a DNA vaccine followed by live vector boost may also increase a person's immune response to the vaccine components. All of these interventions will be tested in this study. This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of and immune response to an HIV DNA vaccine with or without plasmid IL-12 adjuvant, when given by EP and followed by a live vector vaccine given IM by needle and syringe in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a VRC DNA/rAd5 vaccine regimen in healthy, circumcised men and male-to-female (MTF) transgender persons who have sex with men. NOTES: As of April 2013, all vaccinations in this study have been stopped. As of June 2017, this study has been closed. Read Less

This trial will comprehensively evaluate the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in cancer survivors between 9 and 26 years of age by (1) determining the prevalence of HPV vaccine initiation among young cancer survivors, and (2) determining the immune response to and safety/tolerability of the quadrivalent and nonavalent HPV vaccine in young cancer survivors.

This Phase II trial evaluates the safety and immunogenicity of two doses of the Folate Receptor Alpha (FRα) peptide vaccine mixed with GM-CSF as a vaccine adjuvant, with or without a immune priming with cyclophosphamide, as a consolidation therapy after neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment of patients with Stage IIb-III triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

This is a prospective randomized, open label clinical trial in approximately 300 children aged 5-11 years with a physician diagnosis of persistent asthma. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a single intranasal dose of licensed quadrivalent LAIV (LAIV4) or an intramuscular injection of quadrivalent IIV4 (IIV4). Read Less

Due to recent concern of biowarfare and bioterrorism, the US government is making efforts to improve its ability to protect citizens against the smallpox virus. This study will evaluate safety of IMVAMUNE®, an investigational smallpox vaccine, and its ability to stimulate the immune system (the body's defense system). Two vaccine preparations have the same name but one is a liquid and one is a powder that has liquid added just before it is given. The vaccine that comes as a liquid will be injected (given as a shot) just under the skin (subcutaneously) or injected between the layers of the skin (intradermally). The powder formulation is only injected just under the skin. Approximately 495 adults, age 18 older born after 1971, which have not had smallpox vaccine before, may participate in the study for about 7 months. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR (Priorix), comparing it to Merck's MMR vaccine (M-M-R II), which is approved for use in the US in healthy children 12 to 15 months of age. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess if there is any immune interference between the Porcine circovirus free (PCV-free) liquid Human rotavirus (HRV) vaccine and routine infant vaccinations currently in use in the US, namely Pediarix®, Hiberix® and Prevenar 13® as compared to the currently licensed lyophilized formulation of the HRV vaccine when co-administered with the same routine vaccinations in healthy infants 6-12 weeks of age Read Less
