About this study

The study will describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of up to 6 RSV vaccine formulations when administered alone or concomitantly with SIIV. Healthy male and female subjects divided into 2 age groups (18-49 years of age and 50-85 years of age in the sentinel cohort and 18-49 years of age and 65-85 years of age in the expanded cohort) will be enrolled. Age groups will run in parallel. Subjects in the sentinel cohort in each age group will receive one of two RSV vaccine formulations at one of 3 antigen dose levels or placebo. Subjects in the expanded cohort in each age group will receive one of two RSV vaccine formulations at one of 3 antigen dose levels with and without SIIV.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Sentinel-cohort subjects only: Male and female adults aged 18 to 85 years at the time of enrollment (signing of the ICD).
  • Expanded-cohort subjects only: Male and female adults aged 18 to 49 years of age or 65 to 85 years at the time of enrollment (signing of the ICD).

Exclusion criteria

  • Sentinel-cohort subjects only: Any screening hematology and/or blood chemistry laboratory value that meets the definition of a ≥ Grade 1 abnormality.
  • Sentinel-cohort subjects only: Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibodies (HBc Abs), or hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCV Abs) at the screening visit.
  • Investigator site staff members directly involved in the conduct of the study and their family members, site staff members otherwise supervised by the investigator, or subjects who are Pfizer employees, including their family members, directly involved in the conduct of the study.
