Filter by:Vaccines have prevented countless infections but poor vaccine responses remain a major challenge in many scenarios. Hepatitis B vaccine nonresponses are common but immunologically not well-understood. This study aims to study the immunology of hepatitis B vaccine responses by comparing traditional HBV vaccine, which is associated with nonresponses in some patients, to CpG-adjuvanted HBV vaccine, which is associated with far fewer rates of nonresponses. This research will build upon prior studies of the human immune response to infection to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity of these responses. This information will be broadly useful as many vaccine candidates fail due to lack of immunogenicity, potentially enabling improved vaccine design and better protection.
This study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Sabin IPV or bOPV, given as a booster vaccination in children aged 4 years who were previously immunised with different sequential immunization history by Sabin IPV and bOPV, and to observe the antibody persistence three years after different primary sequential immunization with Sabin IPV or bOPV at age 2, 3 and 4 months.
The Phase I bridging clinical trial is to evaluate on the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and ADA of a single intramuscular injection of recombinant anti-rabies human monoclonal antibody injection (SYN023) alone or combined with rabies vaccine in healthy subjects. The study primary purpose was to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) between U.S and China subjects, therefore to lay a foundation for the follow-up clinical trials. The secondary purpose was to evaluate the PK, PD, Safety and ADA of SYN023 in Chinese Healthy subjects and compare with that of U.S. subjects.
Worldwide, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major cause of acute hepatitis,and chronic infection with HBV often leads to chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis,and hepatocellular carcinoma. So far, the most effective way to prevent HBV infection in susceptible population is to inject hepatitis B vaccine. However, long-term protection against hepatitis B virus (HBV) after vaccination remains widely debated. This study aims to evaluate the existence of immune protection in healthy children with negative hepatitis B surface antibody and find a method to evaluate the immune protection induced by hepatitis B vaccine.
A Phase 1, open label clinical study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, tolerability and efficacy of Plasmodium falciparum Malaria Protein 014 (FMP014) combined with (ALF with QS-21), saponin molecule derived from the bark of Quillaja species (ALFQ)) in healthy adult volunteers at different doses and dosing schedules.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the body's immune response at different time points to an FDA-approved seasonal influenza vaccine. By better understanding the way the immune system responds to the influenza vaccine, the investigators can design more effective vaccines against influenza.
This is a prospective randomized, open label clinical trial in approximately 300 children aged 5-11 years with a physician diagnosis of persistent asthma. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a single intranasal dose of licensed quadrivalent LAIV (LAIV4) or an intramuscular injection of quadrivalent IIV4 (IIV4).
Concomitant administration of multiple vaccines, including live attenuated immunizations, is safe and effective. Some restrictions apply for live vaccines; administering a live-virus vaccine within 4 weeks after administration of another live-virus vaccine can decrease immunogenicity to the second administered vaccine. Thus, it is recommended that live-virus vaccines should be administered the same day or ≥4 weeks apart. Data on co-administration of the currently available whole-cell killed Oral Cholera Vaccine (OCVs) with other oral vaccines, specifically, oral polio vaccines (OPV) is lacking. Although the risk of immunological interference due to co-administration of live vaccines with non-live vaccines is considered small if at all, a theoretical concern of interference has been raised. Given the substantial geographic correlation between polio- and cholera-affected and at-risk areas, which include some of the world's most impoverished and hard-to-reach populations, a strategy of co-administration of OCV with OPV to children targeted to receive OPVs has the potential to optimize the use of limited resources and improve coverage for both vaccines. The manufacturer recommendation for a two-week interval between administration of OPV and OCV precludes an integrated campaign or routine use in which OCV could be co-administered with OPV.
Background: Investigators at Bandim Health Project (BHP, www.bandim.org) in Guinea-Bissau have shown in several randomized trials that the Bacille-Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine against tuberculosis (TB) is associated with reduced mortality in the first months of life. BCG is a live attenuated vaccine, which means that it consists of active tuberculosis bacteria that are not capable of infecting a human with TB. BCG has been grown and maintained at many different laboratories all over the world using slightly different laboratory techniques. Due to the accumulation of genetic mutations in the different BCG strains, many variants of the vaccine exists today. These have different properties when it comes to immune response, side effects, protection against TB and scar formation. The BCG scar status after vaccination is a good marker for the non-specific effects of the vaccine; among BCG-vaccinated infants, those with a BCG scar have improved survival. The investigators hypothesize that the different types of BCG vary in terms of the strength of the non-specific effects and thus the impact on overall morbidity and mortality. In the trial, the investigators will compare the two most widely used BCG strains in the world, BCG-Russia and BCG-Japan, with respect to their non-specific effects on morbidity and mortality. As an addition, the investigators will study the effect of maternal BCG vaccination on the subsequent effect of BCG-vaccination in the offspring, since there are indications that the maternal BCG scar status primes for a stronger non-specific response in the offspring.
