A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of IVX-A12 in Participants of 60 to 85 Years of Age

The primary purpose of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a bivalent respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)/human metapneumovirus (hMPV) virus-like particle (VLP) candidate vaccine (IVX-A12) compared to placebo, when administered as a single-dose regimen in healthy older adults 60 to 85 years of age.

About this study

The IVX-A12 Phase 2a clinical trial is a randomized, observer-blind, placebo-controlled, dosage optimization, multi-center trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single intramuscular (IM) dose of IVX-A12, with or without adjuvant, in adults 60 to 85 years of age.

Participants will be administered a single shot of IVX-A12, at specified dosage levels, or placebo. The overall duration of the study is up to 1 year (12 months). A subset of participants will be followed for an additional 12 months for a total duration of 24 months.

Primary outcomes

  3. Model-adjusted Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) for RSV-A, RSV-B, hMPV-A, and hMPV-B-specific Neutralizing Antibodies (NAb)

    Time frame: At Day 28

    Model-adjusted GMT and corresponding 95% CI were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model of log2 titer at Day 28 with independent variables of log2 baseline titer, age group, and treatment group.

  4. Model-adjusted Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) for RSV and hMPV Prefusion F Protein-specific IgG Antibodies (Ab)

    Time frame: At Day 28

    Model-adjusted GMC and corresponding 95% CI were derived from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model of log2 concentration at Day 28 with independent variables of log2 baseline concentration, age group, and treatment group.
