Filter by:This prospective annual release study is designed to evaluate the safety of 1 new influenza virus vaccine strain to be included in FluMist Quadrivalent for the 2017-2018 influenza season.
This study is being conducted to compare the immunogenicity, safety, and viral shedding of a new A/H1N1 strain that will be incorporated into the FluMist quadrivalent formulation for the 2017-2018 influenza season with the previous A/H1N1 strain that was included in the vaccine in the 2015-2016 influenza season.
The study will test whether a high dose influenza vaccination results in improved immunogenicity in adult SOT recipients as compared to standard vaccine. This will be a single center prospective observer-blind randomized controlled trial conducted at the Toronto General Hospital Multi-Organ Transplant Unit, University Health Network, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
LAIV shedding studies in children could be an important way to confirm whether impediments to viral replication do indeed explain these observed reductions in vaccine effectiveness(VE), whether prior vaccination has any influence on replication and what future implications (if any) this might have for the UK paediatric LAIV programme. LAIV virus replication in children will be dependent on virological and host factors. The virus factors include replicative fitness of individual strains and the susceptibility to inhibition by other replicating strains (ability to compete). Host factors which may influence this include pre-existing specific immunity as a result of prior infection or previous vaccination (with either LAIV or IIV), and innate immune factors including mucosal immunity. Understanding the relative importance of different factors over two seasons when the strain composition of the A/H1N1pdm09 LAIV virus will change and by comparing previously unvaccinated and highly vaccinated groups (with both LAIV and IIV), can potentially give unique insights into their contribution to the US LAIV observations. With the change of the A/H1N1pdm09 vaccine strain in 2017/18, demonstrating improved performance (in terms of VE, virus shedding and immunogenicity) and what contribution prior vaccination might make will be key evidence for both the UK, but also the US. Information presented at the ACIP in June 2018 from the 2016/17 and 2017/18 seasons will be key to inform US future decisions around use of LAIV. This is a parallel group, non randomised study which will enrol at least 400 children. Both written informed consent from parent/ guardian and written assent from the child will be in place prior to any study procedure. The two groups will be defined by previous influenza vaccination history, with around half the children naïve to any influenza vaccination (LAIV or IIV) and half having had at least three doses of LAIV with or without IIV. All will follow the same schedule of vaccination and oral fluid collection at day 0 (by the nurse in the home or at the GP surgery); nasal swab collection (by the parent at home on days 1,3,6); day 21 oral fluid collection (by nurse or parent at home or at GP surgery).
This randomized, open-label, single-site study at Saint Louis University will enroll approximately 40 subjects who are healthy, 18 to 49 years old. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive either licensed trivalent FluMist containing (2010-2011 season appropriate), or licensed inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine (2010-2011 season appropriate) so that approximately 20 subjects will be randomized to receive LAIV, and 20 will receive IIV.
The purpose of the study is to investigate and compare the immune responses to influenza vaccination in monozygotic (identical) and dizygotic (fraternal) twins to determine the roles of genetics and environment in the response to flu vaccination.
This clinical study will assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of VAL-506440 in healthy adult subjects.
This study will evaluate in detail the way that the immune system responds to three different kinds of flu shots that are licensed in the United States.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of concurrent administration of influenza vaccine in patients receiving anti-PD1 immunotherapy (nivolumab or pembrolizumab). This will be a prospective observational study, aiming to assess patient tolerance of treatment, adverse events (incidence, grade, need for hospitalization), incidence of influenza infections, and seroconversion rates.
This is a Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 120 males and non-pregnant females, 18 to 49 years old, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. This clinical trial will be conducted at 3 United States sites and is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of two priming doses of M-001 followed by a seasonal quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4). The duration of this trial for each subject will be approximately 7 months. The entire study duration will be approximately 24 months. The primary objectives are: 1) To assess the safety as measured by vaccine related adverse events, reactogenicity, and laboratory adverse events of two doses of M-001 vaccine, each dose administered approximately 21 days apart; and 2) To assess the T cell responses to M-001 component peptides following two doses of M-001.
