20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Safety and Immunogenicity Study of a 4-Dose Series in Healthy Infants Read Less

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune response and safety of both GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals SA's (GSK's) herpes zoster (HZ) subunit (su) vaccine in healthy adults 50 years of age (YOA) and older and quadrivalent seasonal influenza (Flu D-QIV) vaccine in healthy adults 18 YOA and older, when administered sequentially or co-administered with Moderna's mRNA-1273 booster vaccination against COVID-19.

This is a Phase Ib study in healthy adults (18-70 years) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of same season and sequential season vaccination schedules consisting of the 2012/2013 seasonal influenza DNA vaccine (HA DNA) and licensed trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) administered intradermally (ID) or intramuscularly (IM). The hypothesis is that evaluation of these investigational schedules will inform development of novel influenza vaccine strategies that may offer improved and cross-protective immunity against antigenically diverse influenza strains.

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

Study of the safety and immunogenicity of 20vPnC and influenza vaccine administered at the same visit or separately Read Less

The aim of the study was to describe the safety and immunogenicity of a 0.5-mL dose (15 μg hemagglutinin \[HA\] per strain) of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine in children 6 to \<36 months of age. Primary objective: * To compare the rate of any fever (temperature ≥100.4 degrees Fahrenheit \[38.0 degrees Celsius) following a 0.5-mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine to that following a 0.25-mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine during the 7 days after either vaccination (Dose 1 and Dose 2 combined) in participants 6 to \< 36 months of age. Secondary objective: * To compare antibody responses induced by a 0.5-mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine to those induced by a 0.25-mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine as assessed by geometric mean titer (GMT) ratios and seroconversion rate differences after the final vaccination in participants 6 to \< 36 months of age. Other objectives: * To describe the safety of 2 different dose levels of the 2016-2017 formulation of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine in participants 6 to \< 36 months of age. * To describe the immunogenicity of 2 different dose levels of the 2016-2017 formulation of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine in participants 6 months to \< 36 months of age. * To submit available sera from approximately 30 participants to the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research for further analysis by the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the FDA to support formulation recommendations for subsequent influenza vaccines.

INVESTED will test the hypothesis that high dose trivalent influenza vaccine will reduce cardiopulmonary events to a greater extent than standard dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine in high-risk cardiovascular patients with a recent history of myocardial infarction or heart failure. The trial will enroll 9300 participants over one Vanguard (pilot) season and three additional influenza seasons. The primary endpoint will be a composite of all-cause mortality or cardiopulmonary hospitalization. Read Less

Men who have sex with men (MSM) have an increased risk of developing anal human papillomavirus (HPV) infections, which can be a risk factor for anal cancer. HIV-infected women are also at risk of anal cancer. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved quadrivalent HPV vaccine, Gardasil, at preventing anal HPV infection in HIV-infected MSM and HIV-infected women.

The purpose of this study is to determine if 2 doses of Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) followed by 1 dose of Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPV) in HIV-infected children on anti-HIV therapy is helpful and safe in fighting pneumococcal infections in this group of children. This study will also look at the protection provided by childhood vaccination against measles, pertussis, and hepatitis B virus. Pneumococcal infections are the most common AIDS-related infection in HIV-infected children. PCV may help reduce the chances of HIV-infected children getting pneumococcal infections. This study will look at whether pneumococcal vaccines are safe and effective in HIV-infected children receiving HAART. It will look at whether HIV-infected children are protected by childhood vaccines received previously and if more doses are safe and improve protection. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare two flu vaccines to determine their safety and ability to stimulate an immune response in HIV infected children and adolescents. This study will also determine how often and how long people who receive a vaccine are able to spread flu vaccine virus to other people. Read Less

To assess whether HIV-infected infants who receive a heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine have more local reactions at the site of injection and systemic reactions than placebo subjects. To assess whether this vaccine is more immunogenic than placebo following the third vaccination. Children with HIV infection are at increased risk for invasive pneumococcal infection, particularly bacteremia. A large proportion of pneumococcal disease is caused by a limited number of serotypes. The maximum number of pneumococcal serotypes that can be included in a new conjugate vaccine is felt to be limited by the amount of carrier protein. A heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been developed that consists of pneumococcal capsular saccharides from serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F bound to a diphtheria toxin mutant carrier protein.

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
