NCT ID: NCT02266277 Enrolling by invitation - Influenza Clinical Trials

System Alignment for VaccinE Delivery (SAVED): Improving Rates of Influenza and Pneumococcal Vaccination Through Patient Outreach, Improved Medical Record Accuracy and Targeted Physician Alerts

Start date: November 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this research study is to improve rates of appropriate influenza and pneumococcal vaccination among adults who receive care at a large multi-specialty group practice in central Massachusetts. The investigators plan to conduct a non-blinded randomized controlled trial during flu season 2014-2015 (Cycle 1). A total of 20,000 e-portal users and 10,000 non e-portal users who are identified in the Reliant Medical Group (RMG) Electronic Health Record (EHR) as not being up to date on their influenza vaccines will be randomized. E-portal users will be randomized to receive: - Arm 1: E-portal message with Interactive Voice Recognition (IVR) call - Arm 2: E-portal message with no IVR call - Arm 3: No e-portal message with IVR call OR - Arm 4: No e-portal message with no IVR call (Control, e-portal users) Non e-portal users will be randomized to receive either: - Arm 5: IVR call OR - Arm 6: no IVR call (Control, non e-portal users)

NCT ID: NCT02260882 Completed - Clinical trials for Pneumococcal Infection

Revaccination With PNEUMOVAX™ 23 in Older Japanese Adults (V110-902)

Start date: October 31, 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if revaccination with pneumococcal vaccine (PNEUMOVAX™ 23, V110) is well tolerated and produces an immune response in older Japanese adults. The primary hypothesis being tested is that the geometric mean concentration of antibodies to pneumococcal polysaccharide serotypes 3, 6B, and 23F at 4 weeks after revaccination will be superior to that before revaccination in Japanese adults who received a primary vaccination at least 5 years before revaccination.

Anti-pneumococcal Vaccine Strategy in Patients Treated With Immunosuppressants or Biotherapies for CIBD

PneumoMICI
Start date: April 13, 2015
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open study comparing two anti-pneumococcal vaccination strategies in patients with Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease (CIBD) treated by immunosuppressants and/or biotherapies. At present such patients are poorly protected by anti-pneumococcal vaccination. In addition, vaccination efficacy in this type of patient is much weaker than in the general population. There are two types of anti-pneumococcal vaccines: firstly a polysaccharide, Pneumo23® (PSV-23®) vaccine and secondly a conjugate, Prevenar13® vaccine. New recommendations have just been issued by the HSCP advising immunocompromised patients to follow a vaccination plan combining one dose of Prevenar13® followed by one dose of PSV-23® after an interval of two months. In the case of young children infected with HIV, the recommendation is to multiply doses of Prevenar13® before the PSV-23® injection to improve vaccine efficacy in these immunocompromised patients. Our study aims to identify an optimal vaccination strategy for immunocompromised CIBD patients by combining use of a conjugate vaccine, Prevenar13® and a polysaccharide vaccine, PSV-23®. We will compare the use of one or two doses (M0 +/- M2) of Prevenar13® combined with a later PSV-23® injection (M4) on vaccination immunogenicity measured by antibody titer against at least nine of the thirteen pneumococcal serotypes contained in Prevenar13®. We also want to evaluate the immunological impact of these different strategies in their capacity to stimulate a memory B anti-pneumococcal response more effectively. With this aim, we are studying all immunological functional aspects of the antibodies and B lymphocytes induced by the two vaccine strategies.

NCT ID: NCT02225587 Completed - Clinical trials for Pneumococcal Infections

Evaluation of the Safety and Immunogenicity of Sequential Administration of Prevnar 13™ and Pneumovax™ 23 in Healthy Participants 50 Years of Age and Older (V110-029)

Start date: August 28, 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of sequential administration of Prevnar 13™ and Pneumovax™ 23 in healthy participants 50 years of age and older. The primary hypotheses in the study are that 1) geometric mean titers (GMTs) to pneumococcal serotypes 22F and 33F (serotypes in Pneumovax™ 23 but not in Prevnar 13™) as measured at Week 12 are superior in participants administered Prevnar 13™ on Day 1 and Pneumovax™ 23 at Week 8, as compared with participants administered Prevnar 13™ on Day 1 and placebo at Week 8 and 2) GMTs to pneumococcal serotypes shared by the two vaccines as measured at Week 12 are non-inferior in participants administered Prevnar 13™ followed by Pneumovax™ 23 as compared with participants administered Prevnar 13™ followed by placebo.

NCT ID: NCT02225327 Completed - Influenza, Human Clinical Trials

MF59-adjuvanted Influenza Vaccine and 23-valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine

Start date: October 2013
Phase: Phase 4

NCT ID: NCT02123433 Completed - HIV Infection Clinical Trials

Serological Response to Antipneumococcal Vaccination and Impact on Streptococcus Pneumoniae Nasal Carriage in HIV Adults

PCV13HIV2011
Start date: December 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

S. pneumoniae is frequently isolated from nasal swabs of healthy subjects, but it can also cause severe diseases (pneumonia, bacteraemia, meningitis and sepsis).HIV-infected subjects are more sensitive to invasive diseases and recurrent infection than the general population. Nasal carriage is the main pathogenetic feature for invasive disease: bacteraemia is more frequent in carriers, HIV+ patients are constantly colonized by the same pneumococcal strain and their nasopharyngeal isolates have features similar to subsequent invasive strains. A 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) has long been available and recommended in the HIV+ population as prophylaxis for invasive disease. Studies regarding efficacy of PPV23 in HIV+ are controversial and highlight that immune response induced by PPV23 in HIV+ is poor and an hyporesponsiveness to repeated polysaccaridic antigens stimulation can occur. Moreover, PPV23 seems not to affect pneumococcal carriage status and could lead to emergence of non-vaccine serotypes. The conjugation of pneumococcal capsular polysaccharides to carrier proteins results in an improved T-cell dependent immune response, characterized by increased antibody concentrations and induction of T and B memory cells, with a demonstrated higher efficacy in children. A heptavalent vaccine conjugated with diphtheria toxoid (PCV7) is approved in Europe since 2001 and is effective in reducing incidence of invasive disease by vaccine serotypes (4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, 23F), in both children and adults, due to effect of herd immunity. A PCV13 formulation has recently been developed, covering PCV7 serotypes plus 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F and 19A. PCV13 revealed the same safety profile as PCV7 in pediatric patients, that are the main target of conjugate vaccines licensure. Some trials showed a better antibody response in terms of quantity and quality in HIV + adults by using PCV7 as compared to PPV23. However these data were not unequivocally confirmed in further studies on the use of PCV7 alone or in combination with PPV23. The first trials of PCV13 use in adults showed the same or even better response compared to PPV23, with a safety and tolerability similar to PCV7. PCV13 in HIV+ adults is a promising candidate prophylactic measure for pneumococcal infections. The purpose of this study is to evaluate serological response and prevalence of nasopharyngeal colonization by S. pneumoniae in HIV+ non-hospitalized adults, following vaccination with 2 doses of PCV13.

NCT ID: NCT02116998 Completed - Clinical trials for Pneumococcal Infections

Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy Study of Prophylactic S. Pneumoniae Vaccine Following Challenge With S. Pneumoniae

Start date: September 2014
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive GEN-004 with adjuvant or placebo. Each subject will receive up to 3 doses at 4 week intervals. Following the third dose, subjects will be inoculated intranasally with S. pneumoniae serotype 6B. Nasal washes to identify S. pneumoniae colonization will be obtained pre-inoculation, and then 2, 7 and 14 days after inoculation. Subjects will also be monitored for safety and tolerability throughout the dosing period, and then for 12 months after their last dose. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of GEN-004 in reducing colonization rates and magnitude of colonization following the S. pneumoniae challenge.
