Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of non-adjuvanted and adjuvanted monovalent VEE VLP Vaccine in healthy adults (ages 18-50 years) when administered via intramuscular (IM) injection at escalating doses of 2 μg, 10 μg, and 20 μg as a 2-dose primary series (Day 0, Day 28) with a Day 140 booster dose. The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate immunogenicity of the vaccine at the aforementioned time points
This trial is taking place in Los Angeles, CA at clinics within the UCLA Health System. Despite the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendation in 2010 that all people above 6 months of age should receive an annual flu vaccine, vaccination rates remain low: at 6m-4.9 yrs. (70%), 5-17.9 yrs. (56%), 18-64.9 yrs. (38%), and >65 yrs. (63%). The investigators will assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of 1, 2, 3 MyChart R/R messages as compared to the standard of care control (no messages).
A Phase 4 Study To Describe The Safety, Tolerability, And Immunogenicity Of 13- Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Formulated In Multidose Vials When Given With Routine Pediatric Vaccines In Healthy Infants In India
Rationale and Background: Since 2013, Butantan Institute has been performing passive pharmacovigilance activities related to its triavalent, fragmented and inactivated vaccine (IB TIV). Objetive: To conduct an active surveillance study focusing on the elderly and health care professionals as part of Butantan pharmacovigilance plan, while passive surveillance activities will continue. The pharmacovigilance plan, via active surveillance, is being implemented in response to WHO requirements for pre-qualification of IB TIV.
The work done in this trial builds off of the work previously conducted by this same research group in clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT03057379. Due to some changes in study design, protocol, and cohort of interest, a new registration was warranted. The overarching goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability of utilizing statewide immunization information systems (IISs) to conduct centralized reminder recall (R/R) to improve human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates among adolescents 11-14 years of age. The latest recommendations from the ACIP, as of February 2017, modified the vaccination schedule for the HPV series for eligible adolescents ages 11-14. Adolescents who receive dose #1 between the ages of 11 and 14 are now eligible for their second and final dose 6-12 months after their initial dose. Despite U.S. guidelines for vaccinating all adolescents starting at age 11 with the HPV vaccine, in 2012 only 53% of 13-17 year old females had >1 dose and 35% had 3 doses; 21% of teen males had a vaccination. Modeling studies predict marked reduction in HPV associated cancers and in disparities in these cancers if high HPV vaccination rates can be achieved. With this new dosing schedule for adolescents, the research team proposes to conduct a randomized control trial (RCT) utilizing the capabilities of the State Immunization Information System (IIS), and create a HPV-specific R/R autodialer and text message to be delivered to the parents of patients ages 11-14 of randomly selected practices within New York State (excluding NYC). Upon conclusion of this trial, researchers will develop a toolkit for dissemination so that other state IIS systems may replicate these centralized reminder recall procedures.
This study is related to a previous study, Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02924467. There are some modifications in relation to the intervention arms as well as the use of a different cohort, thereby justifying the second submission to Clinicaltrials.gov. This trial is taking place in New York State, through partnership with the New York State Health Department (excluding New York City), and Colorado. Each state will have it's own Clinicaltrial.gov submission -- this was decided as some of the intervention components are different enough that separate registrations were warranted. Despite U.S. guidelines for influenza vaccination of all children starting at 6 months, only about half of children are vaccinated annually leading to substantial influenza disease in children and spread of disease to adults. A major barrier is that families are not reminded about the need for their children to receive influenza vaccination. The investigators will evaluate the impact of patient reminder/recall (R/R) performed by state immunization information systems to improve influenza vaccination rates by using 4 clinical trials (2 per state) in two different states. The investigators will assess effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of 1) autodialer R/R 2) text messages R/R 3) mailed postcard R/R as compared to 4) standard of care control (no R/R).
Prostate cancer is the only type of cancer in which conventional dendritic cells (DC) treatment has a beneficial effect on the overall survival. In this study investigators aim to show immunologic efficacy of tumor-peptide loaded natural DC in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients (mCRPC). The immunomonitoring will include: 1. functional response and tetramer analysis of delayed-type hypersensitivity infiltrating lymphocytes against tumor peptides and 2. type I interferon (IFN) gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and 3. proliferative, effector cytokine- and humoral responses to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, a immunogenic protein providing T cell help. The secondary objectives are the safety and feasibility of natural DC vaccinations, the influence on the quality of life during treatment with natural DC, and the clinical efficacy of treatment.
ImmuSMART is a study of personalized telephonic prompts to community pharmacy patients to improve adult vaccination rates for pneumococcal and herpes zoster vaccines.
Background: - Vaccines and antiviral therapies help prevent and treat diseases. Researchers need a group of healthy volunteers for clinical trials. Clinical trials are studies that test these vaccines and therapies in people. Objective: - To screen volunteers for clinical trials for investigational or licensed vaccines or drugs to treat or prevent virus infections. Eligibility: - Healthy adults age 18 or older. Design: - Participants will be asked questions about their health history, including sexual activity and drug use. They will give blood samples. They may have a physical exam. They may give a urine sample. - Participants may have the inside of their nose either swabbed or washed with some fluid. The fluid will be collected. They may give a stool sample. - Participants may have an electrocardiogram. Soft, sticky patches will be attached to participants chest, arms, and legs. They will lie still on a table while the patches detect the heart s electrical signals. A machine will record these signals. - Participants may have lung function tests. These tests measure the volume of air moving in and out of the lungs. Participants will forcibly blow air into a machine. - Participants will be told if any tests show a medical problem. - If a participant is eligible and decides to join an investigational clinical trial, researchers will explain the study and the risks involved. Participants will sign a separate consent for that clinical trial.
Electroporation will increase the efficiency of DNA priming in terms of immune responses and will lead to a dose sparing DNA vaccine regimen. Furthermore increased DNA vaccine concentration will reduce the number of shots necessary to deliver the full dose and induce comparable immune responses as with lower DNA vaccine concentrations.
