Study Summary

This trial will study the safety of a potential Zika vaccine in people who have and have not been previously infected with a flavivirus.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults in areas with or without common flavivirus infections. Women who can have children must not be pregnant, agree to use birth control, and not breastfeed. Participants should be generally healthy, willing to follow the study plan, and give written consent. People with a fever on vaccination day, prior Zika vaccine trials, extreme BMI values, unstable health conditions that could affect safety or results are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two doses of mRNA-1893 Zika vaccine against a placebo in people who have never had flavivirus infections (seronegative) and those who have (seropositive). It aims to assess how safe the vaccine is and how participants' bodies react to it.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typically vaccines like this may cause pain at the injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills or fever shortly after being administered.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: mRNA-1893 Low Dose (2-Dose Regimen)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive mRNA-1893 at a low dose level administered as a 2-dose regimen with 28-day (-3/+7 days) interval between vaccinations (administered on Day 1 and Day 29).
Group II: mRNA-1893 High Dose (2-Dose Regimen)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive mRNA-1893 at a high dose level administered as a 2-dose regimen with 28-day (-3/+7 days) interval between vaccinations (administered on Day 1 and Day 29).
Group III: mRNA-1893 High Dose (1-Dose Regimen)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive placebo matching to mRNA-1893 on Day 1 and mRNA-1893 at a high dose level administered as a 1-dose regimen (administered on Day 29). There will be 28-day (-3/+7 days) interval between vaccinations.
Group IV: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants will receive placebo matching to mRNA-1893 administered as a 2-dose regimen with 28-day (-3/+7 days) interval between vaccinations (administered on Day 1 and Day 29).

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

If I meet the requirements, can I sign up for this research project?

"This study is looking for 809 patients that currently have zika virus and meet the age criteria of being between 18-65 years old. Most importantly, potential candidates must also: Understand and agree to follow study procedures, be in good general health (as assessed by the investigator), not be pregnant or breastfeeding, use contraception if they are of childbearing potential, and provide written informed consent."

Answered by AI

Are there any open positions in this clinical trial for new patients?

"Unfortunately, this trial is no longer recruiting patients according to the clinicaltrials.gov website. The original posting was on June 8th, 2021 but the site was updated as recently as August 31st, 2022. There are 4 other similar trials that are still looking for participants."

Answered by AI

Does this research study have an age limit?

"The age range for participation in this clinical trial is 18 to 65 years old."

Answered by AI

Are there any concerns with mRNA-1893's long term effects?

"While there is some evidence that mRNA-1893 is safe for human use, there is no data currently supporting its efficacy. Therefore, it received a score of 2."
