Lot-to-lot consistency, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114, a 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, in healthy adults aged ≥50 years: A randomized phase 3 trial (PNEU-TRUE).

Background: Older adults are at risk of pneumococcal disease and associated morbidity and mortality. This phase 3 study (V114-020) assessed lot-to-lot consistency across safety and immunogenicity outcomes for V114, a 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV), in healthy adults aged ≥ 50 years.

Methods: Adults were randomized in a 3:3:3:1 ratio to receive a single dose of one of three lots of V114 or 13-valent PCV (PCV13), stratified by age (50-64 years, 65-74 years, and ≥ 75 years).

Improved efficacy with targeted pharmacogenetic-guided treatment of patients with depression and anxiety: A randomized clinical trial demonstrating clinical utility.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pharmacogenetics-guided treatment on patients diagnosed with depression and/or anxiety, in a diverse set of clinical settings, as compared to the standard of care. The trial design followed a prospective, randomized, subject- and rater-blinded approach enrolling 685 patients from clinical providers specializing in Psychiatry, Internal Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology, and Family Medicine. The NeuroIDgenetix test uses a genetic variant panel of ten genes, along with concomitant medications, to make medication management recommendations based on gene-drug and drug-drug interactions for over 40 medications used in the treatment of depression and anxiety.
