Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator Prevnar 13® (PCV13) in adults 18 to 64 years of age in Stage 1. Stage 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator PCV13 in elderly 65 to 85 years of age. In addition, Stage 2 will evaluate the immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 relative to the response seen following administration of Pneumovax® 23 (PPSV23) for the serotypes not included in PCV13.
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Pneumococcal Vaccine-Naïve Adults
Phase 1/2, Prospective, Single Center, Randomized, ActiveControlled, Double-Blind, Age De-escalation Study to assess the safety and tolerability of SIILPCV10 administered as a single-dose regimen to healthy Gambian pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)-naïve young adults and PCV-primed toddlers through 4 weeks post vaccination. Each adult and toddler subject will undergo a total of 4 clinic visits. Each infant subject will undergo a total of 9 scheduled visits. Blood will be collected from all subjects during the screening visit for safety and potential immunological assessments, and 28 days after completion of the vaccination schedule for immunological assessments. For adults, the vaccine was given intramuscularly into the mid-deltoid muscle of nondominant arm using a 24-gauge needle. For toddlers and infants, the vaccine will be given IM into the anterolateral aspect of the left thigh. Blood will be collected from adults and toddlers for safety labs at the Day 7 post-vaccination visit.
This study evaluated the change in nasopharyngeal carriage (NPC) of Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPn), hypothesizing that it would be reduced post-vaccination with Streptococcus pneumoniae whole cell vaccine with aluminum hydroxide adjuvant (PATH-wSP) and that PATH-wSP would remain safe and well-tolerated over the course of the study.
In the UK, infants currently receive a 5-in-1 vaccine (Pediacel) at 2, 3 and 4 months of age, which protects against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), polio and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Infants also routinely receive a meningococcal group C vaccine (MenC) at 3 and 4 months and a 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine (Prevenar13) at 2 and 4 months of age. This study aims to offer infants a 6-in-1 vaccine (Infanrix-Hexa)that also helps protect against hepatitis B alongside the other routine vaccinations in the UK infant immunisation schedule and assess their immune responses to the different vaccines. Hepatitis B virus infects the liver and usually affects adults, but children can be infected through close contact with carriers of the virus. Children with hepatitis B infection may not have symptoms for many years but may go on to develop liver failure, cirrhosis and cancer. Many other countries already use Infanrix-Hexa and this study is being undertaken to help decide whether the UK can do the same. Babies taking part in this study will receive Infanrix-Hexa instead of Pediacel. All other vaccines given will be the same as in the routine schedule but will include one MenC vaccine instead of 2 doses because the UK infant immunisation schedule is soon going to change so that all babies will receive only one MenC vaccine at 3 months of age. There are currently several licensed MenC vaccines that can be given to babies. In order to check whether there are differences in protection, babies taking part will randomly receive one of 3 MenC-containing vaccines: NeisVacC, Menjugate or Menitorix. Studies have already shown that one dose of Neis-Vac or Menjugate given to babies at 3 months provides similar protection against MenC infection as two doses given at 3 and 4 months. Menitorix protects against both Hib and MenC, so babies in the group receiving MenitorixTM will have an extra dose of Hib which is also included in Infanrix-Hexa but might have a lower antibody response to MenC compared to the other two MenC vaccines, although all infants should be well-protected after their 12-month booster vaccinations, which also contain Menitorix.
The purpose of this study is to assess safety profile of Prevenar 13™ when used among Korean adults in the routine clinical setting, as required for any new drug approved by Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA).
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals candidate pneumococcal vaccine containing PhtD in healthy elderly population aged 18-45 years of age.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Pneumovax™ 23 (V110) is safe and immunogenic in participants from the Russian population who are 50 years of age and older or 2 to 49 years of age and at increased risk for pneumococcal disease
Serotype distribution and estimation of antimicrobial resistance in S. pneumoniae isolates and anticipated PCV7 and PCV13 coverage is difficult in Greece, because invasive isolates collected each year are limited and depict a certain proportion of patients who have easy access to tertiary care or have underlying medical reasons which necessitate inpatient care. It is also probable that the real burden of pneumococcal disease is not well estimated especially among adults. New additions in the laboratory setting such as the pneumococcal urine antigen assay (Binax NOW®) and the Urinary Antigen Diagnostic Assay (Luminex) for the detection of 13 serotype specific polysaccharides in human urine developed by Pfizer might be helpful in identifying more pneumococcal infections compared to the previous years. This NIS is based on the unmet scientific need to describe the serotype distribution and the resistance profile of isolates from X-Ray confirmed CAP in the present circumstances.
This is an open-label phase III clinical trial. The purpose of this trial is to investigate in detail the kinetics of the immune response to Prevenar-13, a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, compared to Pneumovax-II, a pneumococcal plain polysaccharide vaccine. With their consent, healthy adults (n=2 in each group) aged over 18 years who have not received any pneumococcal vaccine in the past will receive either vaccine at their first visit. Blood will be taken before vaccination and at day 0,1,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,23,26,30,35 as well as 2,6 and 12 months following vaccination. With specific consent, a small volume of blood will be used to store DNA and RNA for analysis of the genetic associations with immune responses and adverse reactions to vaccines as well as the RNA expression following a vaccination. Serum or plasma will be used to assess antibody level and available whole blood will be used for B cell assays and to examine immunoglobulin gene usage in B cells.
