About this study
Official title: A PHASE 2, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, CLINICAL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND IMMUNOGENICITY OF MRNA VACCINES AGAINST INFLUENZA IN ADULTS 18 YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER
The purpose of this study is to learn about safety in participants taking the study vaccine (mRNA-based vaccine) and the ability of the study vaccine to trigger the body's immune response, targeting the flu virus (influenza virus).
This study is seeking healthy participants 18 years of age or older. All participants in this study will receive only 1 dose in their arm, to deliver one of the experimental flu vaccines or one of the approved flu vaccines used for comparison.
Participants will take part in this study for about 6 months, and participants will need to visit the study site at least 3 times. A blood sample will be taken at each of the 3 planned study visits and a swab from inside the nose will be taken at the first study visit.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Vaccine Candidate #1, Vaccine Candidate #2 and Vaccine Candidate #3 in people with Healthy Adults, run by Pfizer at 15 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 1 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 15 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 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Pfizer CT.gov Call Center (1-800-718-1021, ClinicalTrials.gov_Inquiries@pfizer.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Percentage of participants reporting prespecified local reactions following vaccination (time frame: Within 7 days after vaccination). The study lists 5 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 6 May 2026.
