About this study
Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of Multiple-Dose Adjuvanted RSVPreF3 (Arexvy®) Vaccination Among Immunocompromised Persons
This clinical trial is being done to learn more about how well a vaccine (Arexvy®) for respiratory syncytial virus, also known as RSV, works in people with weakened immune systems. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does 1 or 2 doses of Arexvy work better in people with weakened immune systems?
- What medical problems do participants have after receiving Arexvy?
Participants with weakened immune systems will:
- Receive 3 study vaccines over the course of 1 year
- Keep a diary of symptoms for 7 days after each vaccine
- Have 3 in-person follow up study visits for checkups and tests over the course of 1.5 years
- Have 6 phone follow up study visits over the course of 1.5 years
Read the detailed description
People with weakened immune systems will be randomized to either:
- Receive one dose of Arexvy followed by a placebo vaccine (sterile saline) 60 days later, or
- Receive one dose of Arexvy followed by another dose of Arexvy 60 days later
Both groups will also receive another dose of Arexvy 1 year after the first dose.
A small group of people without weakened immune systems will also be enrolled in the study. This group will receive one dose of Arexvy.
- Conditions
- Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
- Being tested

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Arexvy (2 doses total), Arexvy (3 doses total) and Arexvy (1 dose total) in people with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), run by Johns Hopkins University 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 15 inclusion and 18 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2026. 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact John Baddley, MD (443-287-1964, jbaddle1@jh.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) (ED60 RSV A and B) (time frame: At 30 days post 1st and 2nd dose in Arm 1 and Arm 2). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Nov 2026.
