Study Of A Vaccine To Prevent Respiratory Syncytial Virus (Rsv) In Babies Aged 5 To 24 Months

Description

Seeking babies aged 5 to 24 months old for a study of an mRNA vaccine to prevent respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

Overview

Participants in this study will either get one of two doses of the experimental mRNA vaccine or a placebo (looks like the vaccine but contains no medicine). The vaccines will be given as an injection three times over a period of 4 months. After the third and final injection, there will be periodic follow-up visits over 2 years.

What we're hoping for

We are studying whether an mRNA vaccine is safe and effective in preventing respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in babies aged 5 to 24 months.
