Filter by:Background: Influenza (flu) virus causes 3 to 5 million cases of severe illness and up to 650,000 deaths per year worldwide. Current vaccines work well against single strains of flu virus. But no single vaccine works well against all flu viruses that can cause illness. Objective: To test an experimental flu vaccine (FluMos-v2) in healthy adults. Eligibility: Healthy adults aged 18 to 50 years. Design: Participants will have 11 clinic visits in 10 months. They must agree not to get a licensed flu vaccine while taking part in this study. FluMos-v2 will be given with a needle injected into a muscle in the upper arm. Participants will receive a follow-up phone call the following day. Participants will be given a diary card, a ruler, and a thermometer. They will take their temperature every day for 7 days after receiving the shot. They will measure any skin changes at the injection site. They will record their findings and how they feel. Participants will receive a second FluMos-v2 shot after 4 months. They will repeat the other follow-up steps. Participants will have 9 other clinic follow-up visits. Blood will be drawn at each visit. Participants should also come to the clinic if they develop flu-like symptoms during the study. Participants may opt for an apheresis 2 weeks after each shot: Blood will be removed through a needle in the vein of 1 arm. The blood will run through a machine that separates out the white blood cells. The remaining blood is returned through a needle in the other arm.
Influenza virus is a significant pathogen in pediatric solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. However, these individuals respond poorly to standard-dose (SD) inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV). Recent studies have investigated two strategies to overcome poor immune responses in SOT recipients: (1) administration of high-dose (HD)-IIV compared to SD-IIV and (2) two doses of SD-IIV compared to one dose of SD-IIV in the same influenza season. One study compared HD-IIV vs. SD-IIV in adult SOT recipients and noted that HD-IIV was safe and more immunogenic; however, the median post-transplant period was 38 months. A phase I pediatric study comparing a single dose of HD-IIV vs. SD-IIV was safe with higher immunogenicity, but the study was limited by small sample size and median post-transplant vaccine administration was 26 months. In another phase II trial of adult SOT recipients, two doses of SD-IIV one month apart compared to one-dose of SD-IIV revealed modestly increased immunogenicity when given at a median of 18 months post-transplant. Therefore, these studies lack both evaluation in the early post-transplant period and substantive pediatric populations. Additionally, the administration of two-doses of HD-IIV in the same influenza season has not been evaluated in pediatric SOT recipients. Thus, the optimal immunization strategy for pediatric SOT recipients less than 24 months post-transplant is unknown. In addition, immunologic predictors and correlates of influenza vaccine immunogenicity in pediatric SOT recipients have not been well-defined. The central hypothesis of our proposal is that pediatric SOT recipients 1-23 months post-transplant who receive two doses of HD-quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (QIV) will have similar safety but higher Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) to influenza antigens compared to pediatric SOT recipients receiving two doses of SD-QIV.
This is a Phase 1, comparator-controlled, dosage escalation study of an intramuscularly administered mRNA-LNP vaccine, DCVC H1 HA mRNA Vaccine, encoding full-length H1 HA of influenza A/California/07/2009 (H1N1), in up to 50 adult volunteers aged 18 to 49 years, designed to assess vaccine safety and immunogenicity at varying doses. Eligible participants will be sequentially enrolled into dosing groups (10 mcg, 25 mcg, 50 mcg, and selected optimal dose) of DCVC H1 HA mRNA Vaccine. Dosing will commence at the lowest dose (10 mcg) and only escalate to the next higher dose if safety concerns are not identified. Up to ten subjects will be enrolled per dosing group. An optimal dosing group will be selected based on safety outcomes from the 10 mcg, 25 mcg, and 50 mcg dosing group. For the optimal dose, the highest dose with no identified safety concerns as determined by the SRC will be selected. This approach will allow determination of an optimal dosing group which will include 10 optimal dose vaccine recipients. Ten separate participants will be enrolled to receive standard quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4). The primary goal of this study is to assess the safety of two doses of DCVC H1 HA mRNA Vaccine administered intramuscularly in healthy adults (18-49 yrs) at dosage levels of 10 mcg, 25 mcg, and 50 mcg.
This study will be a prospective observation of the use of commercially available hemp and cannabis products marketed for immune support.
The study is aim to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of one dose TetraFluvac TF vaccine (15 μg HA per strain per dose) of the GPO seasonal quadrivalent inactivated split virion influenza vaccine in healthy adults aged 18 years and above over 90 days post-injection.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess tolerability, safety and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro vaccine as compared to the Ultrix® Quadri vaccine in volunteers aged between 18 and 60. Participants were given Flu-M Quadro [inactivated split influenza vaccine] with preservative or Flu-M Quadro [inactivated split influenza vaccine] without preservative or Ultrix® Quadri vaccine.The volunteers of each group were vaccinated with a single dose vaccine. Researchers assessed the tolerability, safety and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro quadrivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine. Researchers performed a comparative assessment of the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of the Flu-M Quadro quadrivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine and the Ultrix® Quadri vaccine.
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and the immunogenicity of mRNA-1010 vaccine candidate variations.
This is a randomised controlled feasibility study to evaluate a patient engagement tool (PET) that has been designed for the target population. The PET will be evaluated from previous qualitative data collected from community this feasibility trial. Eligible patients from six GP practises from Tower Hamlets and Newham will be randomised to the intervention or control during the study.
Multi-center, observational, active safety surveillance study in participants aged 6 to 35 months in Korea under routine clinical practices.
This study plans to learn more about whether a stakeholder-informed, standardized inpatient vaccination program will increase influenza vaccination rates of hospitalized children across US pediatric health systems. The first part of the study is to form a multidisciplinary team of stakeholders, including parents, providers, nurses, pharmacists, informaticists, data analysts and communication experts across three sites in synthesizing a best practice implementation guide for an inpatient influenza vaccination program, which will then be piloted at these three sites.
