About this study

Official title: A STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND IMMUNOGENICITY OF MODIFIED RNA VACCINES AGAINST INFLUENZA IN HEALTHY ADULTS

The purpose of this study is to learn if modified RNA (modRNA) vaccines for the prevention of influenza are:

  • safe; and
  • how these vaccines produce an immune response in generally healthy adults. Immune response is the way the body protects itself against things it sees as harmful or foreign.

RNA (also called ribonucleic acid) is one of two types of nucleic acid made by cells. RNA contains information that has been copied from DNA (the other type of nucleic acid). Cells make several different forms of RNA, and each form has a specific job in the cell. Many forms of RNA have functions related to making proteins. RNA is also the genetic material of some viruses instead of DNA. RNA can be made in the laboratory and used in research studies. Also called ribonucleic acid.

Influenza is term used for flu illness. It is an infection caused by a virus that affects your mouth, nose, and throat.

The study is seeking for participants who:

  • are at least 18 years of age
  • have not received an influenza vaccine within the last 6 months
  • are generally healthy

This study will be divided into three sub-studies: Substudy A (SSA), Substudy B (SSB), and Substudy C (SSC).

All participants, regardless of sub-study, will receive 1 dose of either of the following vaccines as an injection into their arm:

  • 1 of the modRNA influenza vaccines that is being studied; or
  • an approved influenza vaccine approved for use in their respective age group.

Participants will be involved in this study for about 6 months. During this time, participants will have at least 3 clinic visits.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Influenza ModRNA Vaccine and Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (QIV) in people with Influenza, Human, run by Pfizer at 32 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 12 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 32 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 12 Jun 2026). 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?

SSA: Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions for up to 7 Days Following Vaccination (time frame: From Day 1 through Day 7 after study vaccination [Vaccination on Day 1]). The study lists 18 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 12 Jun 2026.
