Vaccines are the immune system’s greatest weapon. They help create antibodies, which are special proteins that attack and kill harmful viruses. Typical vaccines enable the body to create antibodies that help keep people healthy.
Not all conditions have vaccines that can prevent people from getting sick. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections, for example, can put older adults at risk for serious conditions like pneumonia and COPD. Researchers from DM Clinical Research want to determine if a vaccine can help prevent RSV infections in older adults. This vaccine may potentially prevent hospitalization and protect others from RSV in the future. 

• Participants will receive a vaccine for the respiratory syncytial virus at no cost.
• Participants may have additional and/or increased protection from certain diseases caused by the respiratory syncytial virus. 
• Participants will be contributing valuable information that may help researchers find a vaccine that may prevent the spread of the respiratory syncytial virus.
• Participants could be compensated up to $1,000 for participating in this study. Compensation will only be provided to eligible participants who complete the study.

• If you decide to participate in the study and later feel that you no longer wish to be part of it, you can withdraw at any time.
• Any information that you provide will be kept strictly confidential, except as required by law.
• Qualified health professionals will monitor your health as it relates to the study.

• Healthy men and women aged 60+ years old 
• Must not have any of the following:
  • a known allergic reaction to any vaccine
  • be residing in a nursing home
  • have participated in another clinical trial within the past 28 days
• Must be able to attend 6 study visits at the research site and receive 2 brief telephone calls over approximately 19 months

The study team can explain the research study in its entirety but some study details are:

• The vaccine used in this study will be given to participants through an injection.
  • Participants will receive 2 injections throughout the study.
• Participants will be asked to complete eDiary entries throughout the study.

• • The eDiary will be accessed through a mobile application.
• Due to travel restrictions and limitations such as the COVID-19 pandemic, participants may be asked to complete in-person visits at home. If any in-person visits must be performed in their homes, the site will notify them before the visit takes place.

• Participants will be asked to donate about 8 tablespoons of blood.
