Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study vaccine for the potential prevention of influenza. The study vaccine is called Self-Amplifying Ribonucleic Acid vaccine (saRNA vaccine). This study is seeking participants who:
- Are between the age of 18 to 49 years old.
- Are willing and able to comply with all scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, lifestyle considerations, and other study procedures.
- Are healthy as determined by medical history, physical examinations, and the study doctor.
- For male participants, can father children and willing to use an acceptable method of contraception. Female participants who are not of childbearing potential; or male participant not able to father children.
- Are capable of giving signed informed consent. Participants will receive either the saRNA vaccine, a licensed Influenza Vaccine (QIV) or a placebo. Participants will not know which vaccine they receive in advance. A placebo does not have any medicine in it but looks just like the study medicine. Participants will receive the study vaccines as a single shot in the arm. We will compare participant experiences to help us determine if the saRNA vaccine is safe and effective. Participants will take part in this study for 6 months. During this time, they will receive the study vaccine and participate in follow-up visits.
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Male or female participants 18 to 49 years of age.
- •Participants who are willing and able to comply with all scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, lifestyle considerations, and other study procedures.
- •Healthy participants who are determined by medical history, physical examination (if required), and clinical judgment of the investigator to be eligible for inclusion in the study.
- •Male participant who is able to father children and willing to use an acceptable method of contraception; or female participant not of childbearing potential; or male participant not able to father children.
- •Capable of giving signed informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Other medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or, in the investigator's judgment, make the participant inappropriate for the study.
- •History of severe adverse reaction associated with a vaccine and/or severe allergic reaction (eg, anaphylaxis) to any component of the study intervention.
- •Immunocompromised individuals with known or suspected immunodeficiency, as determined by history and/or laboratory/physical examination.
- •Bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding that would, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicate intramuscular injection.
- •Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- •Allergy to egg proteins (egg or egg products) or chicken proteins.
- •Participant who has had significant exposure to laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 infection), coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), or influenza in the past 14 days known prior to Visit 1
- •Any participant who has a SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR or antigen test in the past 10 days prior to Visit 1 that has not been confirmed as negative.
- •Individuals who receive treatment with radiotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy, including cytotoxic agents or systemic corticosteroids, eg, for cancer or an autoimmune disease, or planned receipt throughout the study.
- •Receipt of blood/plasma products, immunoglobulin, or monoclonal antibodies, from 60 days before study intervention administration, or planned receipt throughout the study.
