Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
For each of the 32 serotypes (the 31 serotypes included in VAX-31, and serotype 20B), the ratio (co-administration group to sequential administration group) of opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMT) in evaluable participants
Time Frame: 1 Month after VAX-31 vaccination
1 Month after VAX-31 vaccination
For each of the strains in SIV, the ratio (co-administration group to sequential administration group) of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) GMT in evaluable participants
Time Frame: 1 Month after SIV administration
1 Month after SIV administration
Percentage of participants reporting solicited local adverse events (AE) within 7 days after Day 1 and Month 1 vaccination (redness, swelling, and pain at injection site) in each group
Time Frame: 7 days after each vaccination
7 days after each vaccination
Percentage of participants reporting solicited systemic AE within 7 days after Day 1 and Month 1 vaccination (fever, headache, fatigue, muscle pain, and joint pain) in each group
Time Frame: 7 days after each vaccination
7 days after each vaccination
Percentage of participants reporting unsolicited AE within 1 month after Day 1 and Month 1 vaccination in each group
Time Frame: 7 days after each vaccination
7 days after each vaccination
Percentage of participants reporting NOCI, MAAE, and SAE within 6 months after last vaccination in each group
Time Frame: 6 Months after last vaccination
6 Months after last vaccination

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
For each of the 32 serotypes (the 31 serotypes included in VAX-31, and serotype 20B), the ratio (co-administration group to sequential administration group) of IgG geometric mean concentrations (GMC) in evaluable participants
Time Frame: 1 month after VAX-31 administration
