Clinical trials: Non-Specific Effects of Vaccines
Influenza-like Illness, Upper Respiratory Disease
Non-specific Effects of Rabies Vaccine
Vaccines work by stimulating the body to produce a high-quality, rapid and specific immune response upon exposure to infection by a particular disease-causing microorganism - the microorganism targeted by the vaccine.

- Trial name
- NCT03656198

Measles Vaccination, Oral Polio Vaccine
Vaccine Campaign Effects on General Hospital Admissions and Mortality Among Children
The world is set on eradicating measles and polio infections in the coming decade. Once both infections are under control, campaigns with measles and oral polio vaccines will be phased out.

Heterologous Effects of Vaccines
Heterologous Effect of Diptheria, Tetanus, Acellular Pertussis Vaccination on Influenza Challenge in the Elderly
Vaccines can have non-targeted or heterologous (also called non-specific) immunological effects on the immune system i.e. effects other than inducing an immune response against the disease targeted by the vaccine.

- NCT02765126
- Testing
- Seasonal influenza vaccine, Diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine

- Australia
- Volunteers
- 450 people, healthy volunteers welcome
