Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study for:

Cohort 1 and Cohort 2: to assess the safety and reactogenicity of the intramuscular one- and two-dose regimens, with a booster at Month 12 (Cohort 1) and to select a regimen for Cohort 3.

Cohort 2 and part of Cohort 1: to assess respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) neutralizing antibody levels of the regimens containing RSV pre-fusion (preF) protein compared to the one-dose adenovirus serotype 26 respiratory syncytial virus pre-fusion (Ad26.RSV.preF) regimen.

Cohort 3: to assess the safety and reactogenicity of the selected regimen and a booster at Month 12 and/or Month 24.

    • Per serology testing in Cohorts 1 and 2 and per medical history in Cohort 3: Participant has human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 or type 2 infection

    • Participant has had major psychiatric illness and/or drug or alcohol abuse which in the investigator's opinion would compromise the participant's safety and/or compliance with the study procedures

    • Participant has a known allergy, or history of anaphylaxis or other serious adverse reactions to vaccines or vaccine components (including any of the constituents of the study vaccine)

    • Participant has received respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine in a previous RSV vaccine study at any time prior to randomization
