Active clinical trials for "Pneumococcal Infections"

This study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in Japanese subjects aged 6 to 64 years who are considered to be at increased risk of pneumococcal disease and who are naive to pneumococcal vaccines.

A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Multivalent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Healthy Infants

This study is designed 1) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 and Prevnar 13™, 2) to describe the safety of sequential administration of V114 or Prevnar 13™ followed by PNEUMOVAX™23, and 3) to evaluate the immune responses to the 15 serotypes contained in V114 when PNEUMOVAX™23 is given approximately 12 months after receipt of either V114 or Prevnar 13™ in healthy adults 50 years of age or older. There was no formal hypothesis testing.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of an investigational 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) in healthy children, adults and elderly. The control vaccine is a commercialized 23-valent PPV.

This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 5 different formulations of V114 in healthy adults and infants. Adults only will be enrolled in Period 1 and infants only will be enrolled in Period 2; Period 1 will complete prior to the start of Period 2.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator Prevnar 13® (PCV13) in adults 18 to 64 years of age in Stage 1. Stage 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator PCV13 in elderly 65 to 85 years of age. In addition, Stage 2 will evaluate the immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 relative to the response seen following administration of Pneumovax® 23 (PPSV23) for the serotypes not included in PCV13.

The study hypothesis is that a "reinforced" pneumococcal combined vaccine strategy in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitides treated with rituximab will induce a better immune response than the current standard regimen, with an acceptable safety profile. This study therefore aims at evaluating the immunogenicity and safety of two "reinforced" innovative pneumococcal vaccine regimen [one double dose at day0 and one double dose at day7 or a quadruple dose of 13-valent anti-pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) followed by one dose of 23-valent unconjugated vaccine (PPV23) at month 5], compared to the standard regimen (one dose of PCV13 followed by one dose of PPV23 at month 5), in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitides receiving rituximab therapy.

Multiple myeloma is an incurable blood cancer of plasma cells that occurs in older individuals. Novel agents (proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory agents) have substantially improved the overall response rates, progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with multiple myeloma. Patients with multiple myeloma are at high risk of developing life-threatening Streptococcus pneumoniae infections, while clinical efficacy and safety of conjugate pneumococcal vaccines in multiple myeloma patients receiving novel agents have not been studied before. The main aim of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in multiple myeloma patients treated with novel agents.

This is a study of V114 in children infected with HIV. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either V114 or Prevnar 13™ followed 8 weeks later by a single dose of PNEUMOVAX™23. The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of V114 in children 6 to 17 years of age inclusive infected with HIV and to evaluate the anti-pneumococcal polysaccharide (PnPs) serotype-specific Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs) at 30 days following vaccination with V114 or Prevnar 13™ by each vaccination group. There are no formal hypotheses.

Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was added to the National Immunization Program in Russia in 2014 which could affect the changes in pneumococcal serotypes in growing population. The purpose of this study is to determine the spectrum of serotypes of S. pneumoniae in patients older 18-years: in healthy carriage, in patients with non-invasive and invasive forms of pneumococcal infection. The patients will be divide into several groups: 18-64-years old, 65 years old and older, immunocompromised patients, immunocompetent patients with concomitant diseases and patients from restricted organized collectives. This study is designed to meet the following objectives: To estimate the spectrum of serotypes of S. pneumoniae in adult population in different regions of Russia.
