Effectiveness of An Influenza/COVID-19 Vaccine (mCombriax [mRNA-1083]) in Adults ≥ 65 Years

The purpose of this pragmatic randomized trials is to evaluate the comparative vaccine effectiveness (cVE) of mCombriax® (mRNA-1083) versus same day co-administration of the active comparators (i.e., high-dose influenza vaccine/Efluelda® and mRNA-1273/Spikevax®) among adults aged 65 years and older.

About this study

This Phase 4 randomized, active-comparator, pragmatic trial is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a seasonal variant-containing formulation of mCombriax® (mRNA-1083) compared with same-day co-administration of authorized standalone enhanced influenza and COVID-19 vaccines in adults aged ≥65 years. The trial is designed to be conducted over two consecutive respiratory virus seasons to account for potential seasonal variation in virus circulation, vaccine composition, and effectiveness. The primary objective is to evaluate the comparative vaccine effectiveness (cVE) of the combination vaccine with respect to clinically relevant outcomes, including severe influenza and COVID-19. Demonstration of non-inferior protection in real-world setting, in combination with the potential programmatic advantages of a single-dose strategy, may support policy recommendations, reimbursement decisions, and broader implementation of combined seasonal respiratory vaccination strategies.

Treatment and study plan

mCombriax® (mRNA-1083)

Biological

An authorized mRNA-based multicomponent vaccine encoding antigens targeting both seasonal influenza and SARS-CoV-2 viruses.

Efluelda® (TIV-HD) and Spikevax® (mRNA-1273)

Biological

Same-day co-administration of an authorized high-dose trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV-HD; Efluelda®) and an authorized COVID-19 mRNA vaccine (Spikevax®, mRNA-1273)

Primary outcomes
