What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Frequency of solicited AEs (local and systemic reactogenicity events)

    Measured: 7 days following each dose administration

  2. Frequency of unsolicited adverse events

    Measured: 21 days following each dose administration

  3. Frequency of serious adverse events (SAE), adverse events of special interest (AESI), medically-attended AEs, and new onset of chronic illness

    Measured: One year after last dose administration

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Titers of hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) and microneutralization antibodies in comparison with baseline sample

    Measured: One year after last dose administration

  2. Seroconversion rates in comparison to baseline samples

    Measured: One year after last dose administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VAL-339851 in people with Influenza, run by ModernaTX, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Frequency of solicited AEs (local and systemic reactogenicity events) (time frame: 7 days following each dose administration). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03345043, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jan 2021.
