Active clinical trials for "Diphtheria"

The purpose of this study is to learn whether or not giving a tetanus/diphtheria vaccination ("tetanus shot") before giving pneumococcal vaccine makes the pneumococcal vaccine more effective without causing too many side effects.

The aim of the study is to assess the safety of Menactra vaccine in infants, toddlers, children, adolescents, and adults Objective: To describe the safety profile after each and any dose (when applicable) of Menactra vaccine in participants aged 9 months to 55 years for registration.

The objective of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of the DTaP-IPV combination vaccine compared with those of separate DTaP and IPV vaccines administered to healthy infants at 2, 4, and 6 months of age.

The aim of the study is to further characterize the safety and immunogenicity of Menactra® in the population <2 years of age when administered alone and when the second dose is administered concomitantly with the 4th dose of Pentacel®, a licensed pediatric vaccine. Primary Objectives: To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 induced by 2 injections of Menactra® in subjects aged 9 months at the first vaccination visit and 15 to 18 months at the second vaccination visit. To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to Pertussis (pertussis toxoid [PT], filamentous haemagglutinin [FHA] and pertactin [PRN]) antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® administered alone. To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP), tetanus and diphtheria antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® alone. Observational Objectives: To describe the safety profile (immediate unsolicited AEs within 30 minutes of each trial vaccination, solicited reactions within 7 days of each vaccination, unsolicited AEs within 30 days of each vaccination, and serious adverse events [SAEs] throughout the course of the trial from Day 0 up to Day 30 after the last trial vaccination[s]) in all trial groups To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135, measured by SBA HC, 30 days after the second Menactra® administration To describe the antibody responses to Pentacel® (PT, FHA, PRN, FIM, diphtheria, tetanus, polio, PRP) measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), radioimmunoassay (RIA), or functional assays.

This study is designed to assess the immunogenicity and safety of tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis vaccine (ADACEL®, Tdap vaccine) as a booster dose in adolescents in Japan. Primary Objective: To assess the immunogenicity of Tdap (SP306) when administered as a single dose in Japanese adolescents Secondary Objective: To assess the safety of Tdap vaccine when administered as a single dose in Japanese adolescents.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the production of antibodies to a new conjugate vaccine, NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT, as a measure of vaccine effectiveness, compared to the production of antibodies to a similar, licensed meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y, W-135) polysaccharide diphtheria toxoid (DT) conjugate vaccine. The investigators will also evaluate the safety of NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT™ conjugate vaccine compared to the licensed vaccine. The hypothesis is that the test vaccine is comparable to the licensed active control vaccine.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of 9 different vaccines containing aP (acellular pertussis) and TdaP (acellular pertussis, tetanus and diphtheria) in healthy subjects 18 to 40 years of age.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate immunogenicity of BK1310 for all antigens (anti-PRP, diphtheria toxin, pertussis, tetanus toxin, and polio virus), after 3 times of injection, when compared noninferiority with co-administration of ActHIB® and Tetrabik, as well as efficacy and safety, in healthy infants.

The primary objectives of this study are: To describe the safety profile of each of the investigational vaccine formulations for all participants To describe the humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to all of the investigational vaccine formulations To evaluate the dose response to vaccine components To describe the magnitude, quality, and longevity of immune responses to each of the investigational vaccine formulations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate immunogenicity by measuring the seroprotection rate against diphtheria and tetanus at 28 days after vaccination with BR-TD-1001 and Td-pur-inj.
