Vaccines Treatment Options in Austin, TX

This is a study to assess the safety of a bioCSL split virion, inactivated Trivalent Influenza Virus vaccine containing the 2014/2015 Northern Hemisphere strains of vaccine in children aged 5 years to less than 9 years. Comparison will be made to a licensed Quadrivalent Influenza Virus vaccine that complies with the FDA recommendations for the 2014/2015 influenza season in the US. Read Less

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 the study is to demonstrate safety and immunogenicity of the quadrivalent influenza intradermal (QIV-ID) vaccine compared to the trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) containing the B strain from the primary (Yamagata) lineage (TIV-ID1) and the trivalent influenza vaccine containing B strain from the alternate (Victoria) lineage (TIV-ID2) vaccines in producing protection against four strains of influenza virus. Primary Objective: * To demonstrate that QIV-ID induces an immune response (as assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) and seroconversion rates) that is non-inferior to responses induced by TIV-ID1 and TIV-ID2 for the 4 virus strains at 28 days post-vaccination. Secondary Objectives: * To demonstrate that each B strain in QIV-ID induces an immune response (as assessed by HAI GMTs and seroconversion rates) that is superior to the response induced by the TIV-ID that does not contain the corresponding B strain. * To describe the rate of post-vaccination seroprotection induced by QIV-ID and TIV-ID. * To describe post-vaccination immunogenicity stratified by age (18-49 years and 50-64 years), race, ethnicity, gender, previous vaccination status, and baseline seropositivity status. * To describe the safety profile for subjects who receive QIV-ID and TIV-ID. Observational Objectives: * To demonstrate non-inferiority of QIV-ID compared to TIV-ID in terms of all Grade 2 or Grade 3 solicited systemic reactions combined * To demonstrate non-inferiority of QIV-ID compared to TIV-ID in terms of all Grade 3 solicited injection site reactions combined.

The purpose of this study is to determine if a Vero cell-derived trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine produced by the modified manufacturing process: 1. induces immune responses comparable to that produced by the current manufacturing process 2. has an acceptable safety profile compared to a licensed trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine 3. demonstrates consistency of immune response among three different lots.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate different doses of the Influenza A/H1N1 pandemic vaccine. Primary Objectives: * To describe the immunogenicity of the candidate vaccines after each injection. * To describe the safety of the candidate vaccines after each injection. Read Less

The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the 2011-2012 formulation of Fluzone and Fluzone High-Dose vaccines in participants aged 65 years and older. Objectives: * To describe the safety of Fluzone vaccine and Fluzone High-Dose vaccine among adults ≥ 65 years of age. * To describe the immunogenicity of Fluzone vaccine and Fluzone High-Dose vaccine among adults ≥ 65 years of age.

This study is designed to evaluate in a controlled manner the effect of Prevnar® on the immune responses of Pentacel™ Primary Objective - Stage I: To compare the immune responses elicited by an infant series of Pentacel™ when given at different times from or concurrently with a Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevnar®). Primary Objective - Stage II: To compare the immune responses elicited by a 4th dose of Pentacel™ when given at different times from or concurrently with Prevnar®. Read Less

Study to assess the ability of healthy subjects to build anitbodies to tetanus and pneumococcal vaccines after receiving a single intravenous dose of Abatacept, a drug which is being developed for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis and which can affect the immune system. Read Less
