3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this phase 1/2 study is to investigate the safety and immunogenicity of different doses (high, medium and low) of a second generation structurally designed (SD2) H5 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine against pandemic H5 influenza virus (pandemic flu H5 hemagglutinin (HA) mRNA SD2) in healthy younger and older adults. The study will aim to identify the appropriate dose for further clinical development of a potential pandemic response vaccine. The study duration per participant will be approximately 13 months. There will be two injections of placebo or pandemic flu H5 mRNA vaccine 21 days apart at high, medium and low doses. Study visits/contact include: 7 study visits and 1 telephone call. Vaccination visits (including blood samples) will occur at Day 01 and Day 22. Short-term follow-up visits (including blood samples) will occur 8 and 21 days after each injection. Participants will be also followed up (including blood samples) at 3 and 6 months after 2nd injection, and at 12 months after 2nd injection for safety.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a pandemic flu H5 strain messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine at 3 dose levels (low, medium, and high) in comparison with placebo in 276 healthy adult participants to select the adequate dose for further clinical development. The duration per participant will be approximately 13 months.
Background: Influenza (flu) vaccinations are required for all NIH staff members who have direct contact with patients. COVID-19 vaccines are recommended for persons 6 months of age and older. Researchers want to learn about immunity in NIH staff members who get a flu and/or COVID-19 vaccine. Objective: To understand what happens to the body s immune system throughout the year after getting the flu and/or COVID-19 vaccine. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who work at NIH and plan to get the current season s flu vaccine and/or COVID-19 vaccine. Design: Participants will not get any vaccines as part of this study. Participants will be screened with a medical history and medicine review. They will get a survey via email. It will ask about their flu and SARS-CoV-2 history and vaccinations. Participants will have 12 monthly visits at NIH. If during that year they get both flu and SARS-COV-2 vaccines, their participation will be extended. Once a month, participants will be contacted. They will discuss any new medicines, recent vaccinations, or changes in medical history. Once a month, participants will have blood drawn. Once a month, participants will have nasal sampling. A small, flat absorptive strip will be placed in the nostril to soak up mucus. Participants will press against the outside of their nostril with their finger for 1 minute. Participants may be able to collect samples at home and mail them to NIH if they are not able to visit in person. Participation will last for about 12 13 months.
