Vaccines Treatment Options in Washington

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of different formulations of GSK Biologicals' H7N9 influenza vaccine in subjects 18 to 64 years of age. Read Less

The primary objective is to evaluate the persistence of bactericidal antibodies in adolescents previously enrolled in the V59P13 study who received either Novartis MenACWY Conjugate Vaccine or commercially available MenACWY conjugate vaccine. The study will also enroll age-matched subjects who have never received any other meningococcal vaccine (naïve subjects) to serve as an additional control group. Read Less

Sarcoma patients are at high risk for their cancer to recur even when the sarcoma has been removed surgically or treated with radiation or chemotherapy. The patients in the study will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to receive either a vaccine that is combined with an immune system stimulant or the immune system stimulant alone. The immune system stimulant is called OPT-821 and is an immunological booster. The trivalent vaccine is being developed to teach the patient's immune system to recognize 3 types of sugars called GM2, GD2 and GD3 that are found primarily on the surface of sarcoma cells. If the trivalent vaccine can stimulate the patient's immune system to develop antibodies which recognize and target the GM2, GD2 and GM3 sugars, then the patient's antibodies could attack and kill any remaining sarcoma cells potentially preventing the recurrence of sarcoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of two serogroup B meningococcal vaccines in comparison to placebo administered to healthy adolescents ages 11 to 18 years. Read Less

Evaluate, one month after the third dose, the lot-to-lot consistency of 3 different commercial scale production lots of the candidate vaccine in healthy HSV 1-/2- females aged 10-17 years, determined by ELISA. Absence in significant variation for both parameters among the tested lots was hypothesized. Read Less

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety of two injections of Menactra® Vaccine in subjects at 9 months and at 12 months of age when the second dose is given concomitantly with other pediatric vaccines routinely administered in the US. Safety Objective: To describe the safety profile of two doses of Menactra® Vaccine. Read Less

This study is designed to test lot consistency of three different manufacturing lots and to generate safety and immunogenicity data of the investigational vaccine administered via the ID route. Primary Objective: * To demonstrate lot consistency of the Fluzone ID manufacturing process. * To provide information concerning the immune response of Fluzone ID. Secondary Objectives: Safety * To describe the safety profile of subjects who receive of Fluzone ID. Read Less

Primary Objective: To describe the safety of the 2004-2005 pediatric formulation of the inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine Fluzone®, given in the two-dose schedule (described in the package insert for vaccine-naïve young children) to the investigational and control groups. Observational Objective: To describe the percentage of protective Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) antibody titers (following a 2-dose Fluzone® immunization series) to each of the 3 vaccine antigens among the investigational and control groups. Read Less

The study is to compare the 2 Groups with respect to antibody responses to inactivated influenza vaccine. Observational Objectives: * To describe the percentage of participants with protective Hemagglutinin (HAI) antibody titers to each of the 3 vaccine antigens in both study groups following each vaccination. * To describe the HAI geometric mean titer (GMTs) to each of the 3 vaccine antigens in both study groups following each vaccination. * To describe the safety of the 2005-2006 pediatric formulation of Fluzone® vaccine in both study groups.

The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tovaxin in the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. Read Less

People who are infected with human metapneumovirus (HMPV) may develop upper and lower respiratory illnesses. Children are particularly sensitive to HMPV infection. This study will evaluate the safety and immune response of an HMPV vaccine in healthy adults, HMPV-seropositive children, and HMPV-seronegative infants and children. Read Less

The present study is the first study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the cell culture-derived influenza vaccine in healthy children and adolescents aged 3 to 17 years. A step-down approach is utilized in which reactogenicity and safety will be assessed in children and adolescents 9 to 17 years of age (Cohort 1) prior to enrolling additional children and adolescents 9 to 17 years of age (Cohort 2) and children 3 to 8 years of age (Cohort 3).
