6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of two doses of the HPIV3/ΔHNF/EbovZ GP vaccine candidate when administered intranasally in healthy adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of the HPIV3-EbovZ GP Ebola vaccine candidate in healthy adults.
HPIV3 and HMPV are viruses that can cause breathing problems in children. The goal of this clinical trial is to look at the safety of 2 experimental HPIV3/HMPV vaccines in HPIV3-seropositive children ≥ 24 months to \< 60 months of age. Children will receive B/HPIV3/HMPV-PreF-A vaccine, B/HPIV3/HMPV-F-B365 vaccine, or placebo, and participants will not know which study product they have received. The main goals of the study are to find out whether these vaccines are well-tolerated and infectious in HPIV3-seropositive children. The general procedures include daily temperature measurements and daily contact with the participant for the first 28 days, giving a single dose of one of the 2 study vaccines or placebo delivered by nasal sprayer, about 9 in-person visits, a physical examination, 7 clinical assessments, 2 blood samples, 9 nasal swabs and monthly contacts with the participant between Days 29-180. Additional visits may occur if the child has a respiratory illness, fever, or ear infections. The illness visit will include a nasal swab and a clinical assessment.
This clinical study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of 2 dose levels of mRNA-1653, a combined human metapneumovirus and human parainfluenza virus type 3 vaccine, in healthy adults (18 to 49 years of age) and 2 dose levels in children (12 to 59 months of age) with serologic evidence of prior exposure. The safety profile of the adult cohort will permit enrollment of the pediatric cohort.
Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) is a major cause of pneumonia and other respiratory diseases in infants and children. This study will evaluate the safety and immune response of an HPIV3 vaccine in infants and young children.
The study will be conducted using nasopharyngeal swab specimens collected prospectively from individuals suspected of having the signs and symptoms of an acute respiratory tract infection caused by a respiratory virus. A series of standard viral culture tests validated for routine use in the clinical laboratory, and/or a series of PCR-based Laboratory Developed Tests (PCR-LDT) validated by a central reference laboratory will be used to verify the performance of the investigational artus Influenza A/B RT-PCR test and the QIAGEN ResPlex II Advanced Panel test. From each specimen five (5) aliquots will be prepared: (a) one aliquot will be tested in real-time using the assigned viral culture reference methods; (b) one aliquot will be used to extract nucleic acid in real-time for investigational testing; (c) one aliquot of the specimen will be stored at --70C for subsequent shipment to the reference laboratory for PCR-LDT testing, (d) one aliquot will be archived at -70C for subsequent follow-up by the reference laboratory (e.g., bi-directional sequencing of positive specimens), and (e) any remaining specimen will be stored for the Fresh vs. Frozen Study. The extracted nucleic acid generated from the second aliquot (i.e., "b" above) will be split and subjected to testing by both the artus Influenza A/B RT-PCR test and the ResPlex II Advanced Panel test.
