Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 45 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Pregnant, as determined by medical history; 18 - 45 years of age inclusive
  • Intention of receiving Tdap and IIV vaccines based on Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations
  • Willing to provide written informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures
  • Singleton gestation ≥ 26 weeks 0 days gestation - ≤32 weeks 0 days gestation at the time of Visit 1 vaccination based on reconciliation of last menstrual period and ultrasound dating. Estimated due date (EDD) and Gestational Age (GA) - EDD will be based on reconciliation of a "sure" first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) and earliest dating ultrasound. If the LMP is uncertain, then the earliest dating ultrasound will be used to determine EDD and GA. If the ultrasound derived-EDD is in agreement with sure-LMP derived EDD, then the LMP-derived EDD is used to determine GA. If the ultrasound derived EDD is not in agreement with the LMP-derived EDD, the ultrasound-derived EDD is used to determine GA.
  • English or Spanish literate
  • Intention of being available for entire study period and complete all relevant study procedures, including follow-up phone calls and collection of delivery information.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Immunogenicity of Simultaneous vs Sequential Administration of Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid, and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine and Inactivated Influenza Vaccine in Pregnant Women - Pilot

This is a pilot, prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial. During the study, pregnant women will be randomized (1:1) to receive co-administration of a single intramuscular (IM) 0.5 mL dose of US-licensed inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV) and a single intramuscular (IM) 0.5 mL dose of US-licensed Tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis vaccine adsorbed (Tdap) or sequential administration of the vaccines (IIV followed by Tdap ~ 21 days later). Vaccines will be administered by licensed study personnel.

Prior Tdap/Td/TT and influenza vaccine history will be verified by medical record review when possible.

Read more

Injection-site (local) and systemic reaction data will be assessed on vaccination day and during the 7 days following vaccination using either identical web-based or paper diaries, depending on study participant preference.

Maternal serum samples will be collected for antibody titers relevant to the Tdap and Influenza at time points that include: prior to vaccination(s), ~21 days post vaccination(s), and at delivery. Additionally, cord blood serum will be analyzed for the same antibody titers.

Pregnant women will be followed with comprehensive obstetric and neonatal outcomes obtained from medical record review.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis Vaccine, 2016-2017 Quadrivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine and 2017-2018 Quadrivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine in people with Pregnancy, run by Duke University at 3 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 May 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With Injection-site Reactions Post Tdap and IIV4 Administration (time frame: 8 days post vaccine administration). The study lists 12 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Jul 2025.
