Prophylaxis of Ross River Virus Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase 3 Study to Assess the Immunogenicity, Safety, and Consistency of Lot Manufacture of Ross River Virus (RRV) Vaccine in Healthy Male and Female Subjects 16 Years of Age and Older
The purpose of the study is to verify the safety and adequacy of the immune response produced by a 2.5 µg, adjuvanted (aluminium hydroxide) dose of Ross River Virus (RRV) vaccine and to demonstrate the consistency of manufacture of 3 separate lots of RRV vaccine.

Such treatment includes, but is not limited to, systemic or high dose inhaled (> 800 µg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent), corticosteroids, radiation treatment or other immunosuppressive or cytotoxic drugs - Subjects has received any vaccination within 30 days prior to study entry - Subject has received a blood transfusion or immunoglobulins within 90 days prior to study entry - Subject has donated blood or plasma within 30 days prior to study entry - Subject has a history of any vaccine related contraindicating event (eg, anaphylaxis, allergy to components of the test vaccine, other known contraindications) - Subject has a dermatologic condition or tattoos which may interfere with injection site reaction rating - Subject has participated in another clinical study involving an investigational drug, biological product or device within 30 days prior to enrollment in this study or is scheduled to participate in another clinical study involving an investigational drug, biological or device during the course of this study - Subject has functional or surgical asplenia - Subject has a known or suspected problem with alcohol or drug abuse - Subject is a member of the team conducting this study or is in a dependent relationship with one of the study team members. Dependent relationships include close relatives (ie, children, partner/spouse, siblings, parents) as well as employees of the investigator or site personnel conducting this study - Subject is pregnant or lactating |
