Study to Learn About Safety, Tolerability, and Immune Response of a Catch-up Pneumococcal Vaccine in Children and Adolescents

Pneumococcal Disease

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of a new pneumococcal vaccine and how the new pneumococcal vaccine helps to fight against germs that can cause pneumonia (lung infections), meningitis (brain infections), and otitis media (ear infections) in children when compared to the pneumococcal vaccine that is currently in use, 20vPnC (Prevnar 20®). This study will test if the new pneumococcal vaccine is as safe as the one that is currently in use. It will also assess how the new vaccine works in comparison to the one that is currently in use. To measure how the new pneumococcal vaccine compares to the current one, blood samples will be used to measure the body's ability to create proteins to fight those germs. This new vaccine can possibly provide additional protection against germs that cause pneumococcal disease that are not included in the vaccines that are currently given to children. Pneumococcal disease includes a variety of infections caused by a specific germ, Streptococcus pneumoniae This study is seeking participants who: * Are children aged 15 months to 18 years. * May or may not have received any doses of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) in the past. The study will be conducted in the United States, Puerto Rico, and other countries. Participants will be assigned to 1 of 3 groups based on age: Group 1: 15 months to less than 2 years (about 300 participants) Group 2: 2 years to less than 5 years (about 300 participants) Group 3: 5 years to less than 18 years (about 600 participants) Within each group, participants will be assigned by chance in a 2:1 ratio to receive 1 vaccine injection (shot) with either PG4 (new vaccine) or 20vPnC, given in the arm or thigh. This means that for every 3 participants, about 2 will receive PG4 and about 1 will receive 20vPnC. Each participant will take part in the study for approximately 6 months. During this time, each participant will visit a clinic 2 times (visit 1 for vaccination and visit 2 to follow up) and will be contacted via telephone once (for a 6 month follow up). At the study clinic visits, participants will have their blood drawn and be asked if they have experienced any side effects. A side effect is an unintentional or unexpected reaction to a vaccine. During the 6-month follow-up contact, participants will be asked about any further side effects.

High vs. Standard Dose Influenza Vaccines in Lung Transplant (Repeater)

Immunization; Infection|Transplantation Infection|Influenza · Influenza

This will be a follow-up study to the "Comparison of High Dose vs. Standard Dose Influenza Vaccine in Lung Allograft Recipient" study (DMID Protocol Number 22-0014) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Lung transplantation is a life-saving therapy for patients with advanced lung disease, and is also associated with an improvement in quality of life. However, due to the need for life-long immunosuppression to prevent acute cellular rejection and chronic lung allograft dysfunction ("chronic rejection"), lung transplant recipients are at risk for developing major infections. In fact, one-year survival is 85%, with infection being the leading cause of death within the first year post-transplant. We will conduct a follow-up phase II, randomized, double-blind trial to assess the impact of subsequent administration of two doses of HD-IIV compared to two doses of SD-IIV among lung recipients during the early post-transplant period. Demonstration of improved immunogenicity from two doses of HD-IIV over consecutive influenza seasons would provide potential broad benefit in reducing influenza disease and its associated complications in lung transplant recipients. Moreover, studying vaccine immunogenicity and safety in the same participants over consecutive years can provide insight into the influence of immunosuppression levels and allograft aging on vaccine-mediated immune modulation. This proposed study design will contribute significantly to influenza vaccination guidance and policy for the highly vulnerable lung transplant population. This proposed study is designed to address several key knowledge gaps in vaccine-mediated protection of lung transplant recipients against influenza: * Is there increased immunogenicity with administration of one or two doses of HD-IIV or SD-IIV in the subsequent season compared to two doses of HD-IIV or SD-IIV in the first season? * What is the durability of the humoral and cellular immune response between influenza seasons and does two doses of HD-IIV or SD-IIV sustain higher HAI titers compared to two doses of HD-IIV or SD-IIV in the first season? * What is the impact of maintenance immunosuppression levels on influenza vaccine immunogenicity within the same participant? * Will the optimal immunogenic vaccination strategy be associated with an acceptable long-term safety profile over successive influenza seasons, including injection-site and systemic reactions, allosensitization, and organ rejection?

A Study to Learn About How a New Pneumococcal Vaccine Works in Infants.

Pneumococcal Disease

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of a new pneumococcal vaccine and how the new pneumococcal vaccine helps to fight against germs that can cause pneumonia (lung infections), meningitis (brain infections), and otitis media (ear infections) in infants when compared to the pneumococcal vaccine that is currently in use, 20vPnC (Prevnar 20®). This study will test if the new pneumococcal vaccine is as safe as the one that is currently in use. It will also assess how the new vaccine works in comparison to the one that is currently in use when given with other childhood vaccines. To measure how the new pneumococcal vaccine compares to the current one, blood samples will be used to measure the body's ability to create proteins to fight those germs. This new vaccine can possibly provide additional protection against germs that cause pneumococcal disease that are not included in the vaccines that are currently given to infants. Pneumococcal disease includes a variety of infections caused by a specific germ, Streptococcus pneumoniae. There are three groups in this study. All participants will be assigned to one of the three groups. This study is seeking participants who are: * infants who are 2 months of age in Group 1; * infants who are 2 to 6 months of age in Groups 2 and 3; and * said to be healthy by the study doctor About 3000 infants will be assigned to Group 1. The infants in this group will have a 1 in 2 chance (50%) of receiving either PG4 (new vaccine) or 20vPnC (currently in use) into the left thigh muscle at 2, 4, 6, and 12 to 15 months of age. About 140 infants from outside the United States will be assigned to Group 2. The infants in this group will have a 1 in 2 chance (50%) of receiving either PG4 or 20vPnC into the left thigh muscle at 2 to 6, 3 to 8, 4 to 10, and 12 to 15 months of age. About 90 infants from outside the United States will be assigned to Group 3. The infants in Group 3 will have a 1 in 3 chance (33%) of receiving either PG4 into the left thigh muscle, PG4 under the skin of the left thigh, or 20vPnC into the left thigh muscle at 2 to 6, 3 to 8, 4 to 10, and 12 to 15 months of age. Infants in Group 1 will take part in this study for about 16 to 19 months (about 1 and a half years). Infants in Groups 2 and 3 will take part in this study for 12 to 21 months (about 1 to 1 and a half years). During this time, infants will have 6 study clinic visits and 1 phone call. At these study clinic visits, parent(s)/legal guardian(s) will be asked if the infant experienced any side effects. A side effect is an unintentional or unexpected reaction to a vaccine. Infants will have 3 blood samples collected.

High vs. Standard Dose Influenza Vaccine in Lung Allograft Recipients

Immunization; Infection · Transplantation Infection · Influenza

Lung allograft recipients have a higher burden of influenza disease and greater associated morbidity and mortality compared with healthy controls. Induction and early maintenance immunosuppression is thought to impair immunogenicity to standard dose inactivated influenza vaccine. This early post-transplant period is when immunity is most desirable, since influenza disease during this time frame is associated with adverse consequences. Thus, strategies to reduce severe influenza disease in this highly susceptible population are critical. No trials in lung transplant recipients have evaluated two doses of HD-IIV within the same influenza season as a strategy to improve immunogenicity and durability of influenza prevention. Furthermore, no influenza vaccine trials have focused on enrollment of subjects at early post-transplant timepoints. Very few studies have been performed in solely lung allograft recipients. Immunosuppression intensity is highest in lung patients, thereby limiting comparisons to recipients of heart, liver, and kidney transplants. Therefore, studies to assess both HD-IIV and two-dose strategies in the same influenza season in post-lung transplant recipients are greatly needed. The central hypothesis of our proposal is that lung allograft recipients who are 1-35 months post-transplant and receiving two doses of HD-quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (QIV) will have higher HAI geometric mean titers (GMT) to influenza antigens compared to those receiving two doses of SD-QIV. To test this hypothesis and address the above critical knowledge gaps, we propose to conduct a phase II, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, controlled immunogenicity and safety trial comparing the administration of two doses of HD-QIV to two doses of SD-QIV in lung allograft recipients 1-35 months post-transplant. The results of this clinical trial will address significant knowledge gaps regarding influenza vaccine strategies (e.g., one vs. two doses and HD-QIV vs. SD-QIV) and immune responses in lung transplant recipients and will guide vaccine recommendations during the post-transplant period.

A Study to Learn About a Clostridioides Difficile Vaccine in People 65 Years of Age and Older

Clostridioides Difficile Associated Disease

The purpose of the study is to learn about how effective, safe, and tolerable the Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) vaccine is in decreasing the number of C. difficile infections (pCDI) in adults 65 years of age or older. The participants will receive either the C. difficile vaccine or placebo (saline). A placebo does not contain any active ingredients. The vaccines will be given as a shot into the upper arm muscle. This study looks at the number of diarrhea (loose stools) events related to a C. difficile infection, so the length of the study can change. If these events happen quickly, the study may finish sooner; if they happen slowly, it could take longer. Sometimes, the study might stop early if the vaccine clearly works or clearly doesn't. Participants will stay in the study until enough events have occurred to answer the main question. On average, each person is expected to take part for up to about three and a half years. During this time, participants will have 3 planned clinical visits and 3 planned phone visits. After these visits, more scheduled clinic visits will happen every year until the end of study. Besides the scheduled study visits, if at any time during the study a participant has 3 or more loose stools in 24 hours, they will be asked to save the next one (the fourth or later) and contact the study site. The study site will check to see if it could be a C. difficile infection. This check may happen at the clinic or through a phone or video call.

High vs.Standard Dose Influenza Vaccine in Pediatric Solid Organ Transplant (SOT) Recipients

Immunization; Infection · Transplantation Infection · Influenza

Influenza virus is a significant pathogen in pediatric solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. However, these individuals respond poorly to standard-dose (SD) inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV). Recent studies have investigated two strategies to overcome poor immune responses in SOT recipients: (1) administration of high-dose (HD)-IIV compared to SD-IIV and (2) two doses of SD-IIV compared to one dose of SD-IIV in the same influenza season. One study compared HD-IIV vs. SD-IIV in adult SOT recipients and noted that HD-IIV was safe and more immunogenic; however, the median post-transplant period was 38 months. A phase I pediatric study comparing a single dose of HD-IIV vs. SD-IIV was safe with higher immunogenicity, but the study was limited by small sample size and median post-transplant vaccine administration was 26 months. In another phase II trial of adult SOT recipients, two doses of SD-IIV one month apart compared to one-dose of SD-IIV revealed modestly increased immunogenicity when given at a median of 18 months post-transplant. Therefore, these studies lack both evaluation in the early post-transplant period and substantive pediatric populations. Additionally, the administration of two-doses of HD-IIV in the same influenza season has not been evaluated in pediatric SOT recipients. Thus, the optimal immunization strategy for pediatric SOT recipients less than 24 months post-transplant is unknown. In addition, immunologic predictors and correlates of influenza vaccine immunogenicity in pediatric SOT recipients have not been well-defined. The central hypothesis of our proposal is that pediatric SOT recipients 1-23 months post-transplant who receive two doses of HD-quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (QIV) will have similar safety but higher Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) to influenza antigens compared to pediatric SOT recipients receiving two doses of SD-QIV.
