What can I expect during this study?

If you are eligible for the study and choose to participate, you will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to 1 of 2 study groups:

Group 1

Receives the investigational study vaccine (V116) at Visit 1.

Group 2

Receives a dose of an approved pneumococcal vaccine (Pneumovax23®) at Visit 1. You will have 5 visits that occur over approximately 6 months. At least 2 visits will be in person, and some will occur by a telephone call with the study staff.

 

Depending on when you start the study and the location of your study site, you may be enrolled in the immunogenicity follow-up and/or the PBMC sub-studies. Sub-study participants remain in the study for an additional 6-18 months and return to the study clinic every 6 months for 1-3 additional in-person visits. The study doctor will discuss sub-study participation with you.

 

Tests and examinations include your medical history, body temperature, blood samples, physical examinations, and keeping a diary at home of your temperature and any side effects.

 

Participation is voluntary and you can withdraw from the study for any reason at any time.
