Study Summary

This trial tests the safety and effectiveness of a new flu vaccine given as a single shot for adults 18+ compared to existing vaccines.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 in the US or over 21 in Puerto Rico who haven't had a flu shot in the last 6 months. Women must be postmenopausal, surgically sterile, or willing to use contraception. Participants should not be pregnant and must agree to follow study procedures.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests a new Quadrivalent Influenza mRNA Vaccine MRT5413 given as one injection. It's compared with three other flu vaccines: standard-dose, high-dose (for those ≥65), and recombinant influenza vaccine. The goal is to check safety and immune response.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include pain at the injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, fever, chills and nausea. These are common reactions similar to other flu vaccines but can vary from person to person.
