Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to use an existing, unique clinical cohort: the longitudinal cohort of younger (21-40 years) and elderly (\>65 years) subjects whose yearly influenza vaccine responses have been studied extensively since 2007, to gain molecular and cellular mechanistic insights into the impaired vaccine responses in the elderly.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase I mechanistic study of sixty 21-40 and \>65 year old adult volunteers who previously participated in vaccine studies with our program. All participation is by invitation only.

The volunteers will be enrolled into two groups. Group A: Up to 30 healthy adult volunteers age 21-40 who will be given seasonal quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4) prior to flu season for each of 5 years. They will also be given an inactivated Hepatitis A vaccine in the spring of years 1 and 2. Each volunteer will complete a total of 4 visits for each immunization: Day 0 (pre-immunization), Day 6-8, Day 12-15, and Day 26-30 (post-immunization). All visits will consist of drawing blood for study assays and monitoring for serious adverse events (SAEs).

A subset of this group will be randomized to receive either a Typhoid Vi Polysaccharide Vaccine or Typhoid Vaccine Live Oral Ty21a vaccine in year 3. Each volunteer will complete a total of 4 visits for this immunization: Day 0 (pre-immunization), Day 6-8 post completion of injection or final oral dose, Day 12-15 and Day 26-30 (post-immunization). All visits will consist of drawing blood for study assays and monitoring for serious adverse events (SAEs).

Group B: Up to 30 healthy adult volunteers age 65 plus who will be randomized and given seasonal trivalent high dose inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV3) or trivalent adjuvanted trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (Fluad) prior to flu season for each of 5 years. They will also be given an inactivated Hepatitis A vaccine in the spring of years 1 and 2 and aTyphoid Vi Polysaccharide Vaccine in year 3. Each volunteer will complete a total of 4 visits for each immunization: Day 0 (pre-immunization), Day 6-8, Day 12-15, and Day 26-30 (post-immunization). All visits will consist of drawing blood for study assays and monitoring for serious adverse events (SAEs).

A subset of subjects (with a target of 10 younger and 10 older subjects depending on health), will undergo bone marrow aspirates one or two years after typhoid vaccination.
