STRIDE-8 Trial Summary

This trial studies the safety & tolerability of a vaccine to protect adults against pneumococcal diseases. It also evaluates how well the vaccine works.

Who is the study for?
Adults at high risk for pneumococcal disease, stable on current treatments with conditions like diabetes (with controlled HbA1c), chronic liver disease, COPD, asthma, heart or kidney disease. Must not be pregnant or planning to get pregnant and agree to use contraception if of childbearing potential. Excludes those with recent severe infections, hypersensitivity to vaccine components, bleeding disorders preventing shots, active cancer treatment within 3 years, planned major surgery or organ transplant during the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new vaccine called V116 against pneumococcal diseases compared to an existing vaccine regimen including PCV15 and PPSV23. It aims to assess safety and immune response by measuring how well the body can fight off the bacteria after vaccination.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site such as pain and swelling, feverish symptoms similar to mild flu-like illness. There may also be allergic reactions in rare cases due to sensitivity towards any component of the vaccines.
