Vaccines Treatment Options in Virginia

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.

The purpose of this study is to complete the total safety database size for GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' (GSK's) human rotavirus (HRV) vaccine across the Porcine circovirus (PCV)-free development plan. This study used a purposely selected lot for PCV-free liquid HRV vaccine that is in the upper range of the usual release potencies. The PCV-free liquid HRV vaccine lots used were stored frozen in order to keep the titer stable until administration during the study. As the liquid formulation of GSK's HRV vaccine is not licensed in the US, the lyophilized formulation of the vaccine was used as a control in all phase III studies as part of the PCV-free development plan.

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

This is a Phase I double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in 250 healthy adults, 18-49 years of age, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. The purpose of this dose escalation clinical study is to assess the safety, tolerability/reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of H3N2 M2SR investigational vaccines for prevention of influenza, when delivered at higher dosages or in two doses . Eligible subjects will be screened and randomized to receive two administrations 28 days apart of Sing2016 M2SR at three dose levels (low, medium, high), Bris10 M2SR at one dose level (low), or placebo in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio. Study duration will be approximately 8 months with subject participation duration approximately 7 months. The primary study objective is to assess the safety and reactogenicity of a monovalent live single replication influenza H3N2 M2SR vaccine. 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

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

The primary objective of this study is to describe the level of serum antibody and cellular immune responses conferred by FluMist and TIV against influenza virus strains. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the safety and immunogenicity of a new investigational hepatitis B virus vaccine, HEPLISAV-B, in patients 18 to 75 years of age who have progressive loss of kidney function. Read Less

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Cyclophosphamide may also stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Giving vaccine therapy together with cyclophosphamide after surgery may cause a stronger immune response to kill any remaining tumor cells. It may also prevent or delay the recurrence of melanoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects of vaccine therapy when given with or without cyclophosphamide and to see how well they work in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage II, stage III, or stage IV melanoma.

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 evaluate end of shelf-life potency in terms of the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR vaccine, by comparing it to Merck \& Co., Inc.'s MMR vaccine, which is approved for use in the United States (US). Read Less

The purposes of the clinical trial are to determine whether the SA4Ag vaccine can prevent postoperative Staphylococcus aureus infections in patients who are undergoing elective spinal fusion surgery, and to evaluate the safety of SA4Ag in patients who are undergoing elective spinal surgery.
