Active clinical trials for "Pneumococcal Infections"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of LBVE (Multivalent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) in healthy infants.

This study is designed to 1) describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 and Prevnar 13™ in pneumococcal vaccine-naïve adults infected with HIV and to 2) describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of PNEUMOVAX™23 when administered 8 weeks after receipt of either V114 or Prevnar 13™.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of V114 and Prevnar 13™ in healthy infants. This study will include both full-term infants (≥37 weeks gestational age) and premature infants (<37 weeks gestational age). Premature infants will be included in a Premature Infant Immunogenicity Substudy, which will assess immunogenicity and safety following administration of V114 or Prevnar 13™.

This study is designed to describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 in children with sickle cell disease.

This is a 2-stage, phase 1/2, randomized, active-controlled, observer-blinded study with a 2-arm parallel design in each stage. In Stage 1 healthy adults 50 to 64 years of age with no history of pneumococcal vaccination will be randomized equally to receive either a single intramuscular dose of multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine or a licensed tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis combination vaccine (Tdap) (control group). In Stage 2 healthy adults 65 to 85 years of age previously vaccinated with Prevnar 13 >=2 months prior to investigational product administration will be randomized equally to receive either a single intramuscular dose of multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine or the licensed 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (control group).

The primary purpose of this phase 3, single-arm, open-label study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a 4-dose regimen of V114 administered to healthy infants in South Korea.

This study will assess the immunogenicity and safety of booster vaccination with NBP606 compared to the existing commercial vaccine, when given concomitantly with routine pediatric vaccinations.

In the UK, infants currently receive a 5-in-1 vaccine (Pediacel) at 2, 3 and 4 months of age, which protects against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), polio and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Infants also routinely receive a meningococcal group C vaccine (MenC) at 3 and 4 months and a 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine (Prevenar13) at 2 and 4 months of age. This study aims to offer infants a 6-in-1 vaccine (Infanrix-Hexa)that also helps protect against hepatitis B alongside the other routine vaccinations in the UK infant immunisation schedule and assess their immune responses to the different vaccines. Hepatitis B virus infects the liver and usually affects adults, but children can be infected through close contact with carriers of the virus. Children with hepatitis B infection may not have symptoms for many years but may go on to develop liver failure, cirrhosis and cancer. Many other countries already use Infanrix-Hexa and this study is being undertaken to help decide whether the UK can do the same. Babies taking part in this study will receive Infanrix-Hexa instead of Pediacel. All other vaccines given will be the same as in the routine schedule but will include one MenC vaccine instead of 2 doses because the UK infant immunisation schedule is soon going to change so that all babies will receive only one MenC vaccine at 3 months of age. There are currently several licensed MenC vaccines that can be given to babies. In order to check whether there are differences in protection, babies taking part will randomly receive one of 3 MenC-containing vaccines: NeisVacC, Menjugate or Menitorix. Studies have already shown that one dose of Neis-Vac or Menjugate given to babies at 3 months provides similar protection against MenC infection as two doses given at 3 and 4 months. Menitorix protects against both Hib and MenC, so babies in the group receiving MenitorixTM will have an extra dose of Hib which is also included in Infanrix-Hexa but might have a lower antibody response to MenC compared to the other two MenC vaccines, although all infants should be well-protected after their 12-month booster vaccinations, which also contain Menitorix.

The purpose of the study is to see if an investigational vaccine for Streptococcus pneumonia disease (V114) has comparable safety, tolerability, and antibody response to Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PNEUMOVAX® 23) and 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PREVNAR 13®) when administered to healthy adults 50 years of age or older. The primary hypothesis is the serotype-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) as measured by the pneumococcal electrochemiluminescence (Pn ECL) assay at one month postvaccination in subjects who receive V114 will be noninferior to those measured in subjects who receive PNEUMOVAX® 23.

This study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of three doses of an investigational pneumococcal vaccine in healthy adult volunteers. Primary Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of an investigational Pneumococcal vaccine.
