Vaccines Treatment Options in Vermont

The purpose of this trial is to test if treatment with the trial drug, tralokinumab, can affect the body's immune response to vaccines. The trial will also evaluate the efficacy of tralokinumab when it is given concomitantly with vaccines. The trial includes a screening period of 2 to 6 weeks, a treatment period of 16 weeks (Weeks 0 to 16), and a 14-week off-treatment follow-up period for the assessment of safety (Weeks 16 to 30). Eligible subjects may transfer to an open-label, long-term trial at Week 16 or later. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety (primary objective), the ability to trigger the production of antibodies (immunogenicity; a secondary objective) and presence of vaccine virus in the stool (fecal shedding; a secondary objective) of two novel oral polio vaccines (nOPV), novel oral poliomyelitis vaccine type 1 (nOPV1) and novel oral poliomyelitis vaccine type 3 (nOPV3), as compared to Sabin strain monovalent oral poliomyelitis vaccine (mOPV) controls, in healthy adults.

PXVX0047 (Adenovirus Type 4 and Type 7 Vaccine \[A549 Cells\], Live, Oral) is an investigational vaccine in development for the indication of active immunization against adenovirus infection. The primary goals of this Phase 1 study are to evaluate safety, pharmacodynamics (viral shedding), and immunogenicity of PXVX0047. Read Less

This is a single site, phase 1 study of dmLT as a mucosal adjuvant to control fecal viral shedding when used in combination with intradermally administered fractional dose trivalent IPV (fIPV). It will be a 2-arm, randomized, double-blind controlled trial of intradermal fIPV versus fIPV+dmLT in healthy adults with a monovalent oral polio vaccine (OPV) challenge administered as a test of mucosal immunity. A maximum of 30 healthy subjects will be recruited, all of whom will have received IPV only as part of their primary childhood immunization series (cohort 1); they will be randomized 2:1 to receive fIPV-dmLT or fIPV alone. A maximum of 27 participants will be recruited from an earlier pilot study population exposed to fIPV+/-dmLT and will provide follow-up samples for immunologic studies only (cohort 2). Read Less

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

Infection with dengue viruses is the leading cause of hospitalization and death in children in many tropical Asian countries, and the development of a dengue vaccine is a top health priority. This study will evaluate the ability of a single dose of a trivalent dengue vaccine to protect against infection with an attenuated candidate DENV-2 vaccine, administered 6 months after the trivalent dengue vaccine.

Dengue viruses can cause dengue fever and other more severe forms of disease. This study will evaluate the safety and immune response to two doses of a dengue virus vaccine given 12 months apart in healthy adults. Read Less

Dengue viruses can cause dengue fever and other serious health conditions, primarily affecting people living in tropical regions of the world. This study will evaluate the safety and immune responses to two formulations of a tetravalent dengue virus vaccine in healthy adults. Read Less

Dengue viruses can cause dengue fever and other serious health conditions, primarily affecting people living in tropical regions of the world. This study will evaluate the safety and immune responses to two formulations of a tetravalent dengue virus vaccine in healthy adults who have previously been infected with a dengue virus or other flavivirus or have previously received a flavivirus vaccine.

RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining these two treatments may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining vaccine therapy with radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage II or stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been completely removed in surgery.

Infection with dengue viruses is one of the leading causes of hospitalization and death in children in several tropical Asian counties. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that these viruses are responsible for more than 50 million cases of dengue fever (DF) and approximately 0.5 million cases of the more severe disease, dengue hemorrhagic fever/ shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) annually. Because dengue viruses are endemic in most tropical and subtropical regions, keeping more than 2 billion persons at risk for acquiring dengue, the WHO has made development of a dengue vaccine a top priority. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a candidate DEN4 vaccine aimed at preventing infection with dengue virus serotype 4. Read Less

Dengue viruses can cause dengue fever and other serious health conditions, primarily affecting people living in tropical regions of the world. This study will evaluate the safety and immune responses of five formulations of a tetravalent dengue virus vaccine in healthy adults. Read Less
