STRIDE-7 Trial Summary

This trial will test a new pneumonia vaccine in people with HIV to see if it is safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults living with HIV who haven't had pneumococcal vaccines before and are on stable anti-retroviral therapy. They can't join if they've had certain AIDS-related illnesses, active hepatitis, recent cancer treatments, prior PCV15 or PCV20 vaccines, heavy steroid use, immunosuppressive therapies, recent live virus vaccines, a history of severe pneumococcal disease or allergies to vaccine components.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and immune response to V116—a new pneumococcal vaccine—compared to PPSV23 (an existing vaccine), PCV15 (another type of vaccine), and placebo in people with HIV. It aims to prevent diseases caused by specific bacteria that the vaccines target.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects from these vaccines may include pain at the injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain and possibly allergic reactions. The full range of side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.
