Introduction And Aim: A trivalent live attenuated influenza vaccine (Nasovac-S) was developed and licensed in India. A phase 4 study was conducted to assess safety.

Methodology: This non-randomized, open-label, single-arm study among individuals ≥ 2 years of age involved administration of 0.5 mL of Nasovac-S intranasally, with a 1-month follow-up after vaccination. Adverse events (AEs) were collected via structured diaries.

Results: Among 500 vaccinated subjects, 160 were between 2 and 17 years of age, 240 were 18-49 years old and 100 were 50 years and older. A total of 533 solicited reactions were reported. The majority of these reactions were mild, and almost all of them resolved without any sequelae. A total of 20% of subjects reported at least one local solicited reaction, and 23% reported at least one systemic solicited reaction. None of the 45 unsolicited AEs reported by 37 subjects (7.4%) were causally related to the study vaccine.

Conclusions: The data from the study adds to the existing safety database of Nasovac-S.

Registry: Clinical Trials Registry of India (CTRI/2015/08/006074).

: Acute otitis media (AOM) is a common pediatric infection worldwide and is the primary basis for pediatric primary care visits and antibiotic prescriptions in children. Current licensed vaccines have been incompletely ineffective at reducing the global burden of AOM, underscoring a major unmet medical need. The complex etiology of AOM presents additional challenges for vaccine development, as it can stem from multiple bacterial species including , , and .

Plague, caused by , poses a public health threat not only due to sporadic outbreaks across the globe but also due to its potential as a biothreat agent. Ironically, among the seven deadliest pandemics in global history, three were caused by . Pneumonic plague, the more contagious and severe form of the disease, is difficult to contain, requiring either prophylactic antibiotic treatment or vaccination.

Background/objectives: Influenza viruses and SARS-CoV-2 are currently cocirculating with similar seasonality, and both pathogens are characterized by a high mutational rate which results in reduced vaccine effectiveness and thus requires regular updating of vaccine compositions. Vaccine formulations combining seasonal influenza and SARS-CoV-2 strains can be considered promising and cost-effective tools for protection against both infections.

Methods: We used a licensed seasonal trivalent live attenuated influenza vaccine (3×LAIV) as a basis for the development of a modified 3×LAIV/CoV-2 vaccine, where H1N1 and H3N2 LAIV strains encoded an immunogenic cassette enriched with conserved T-cell epitopes of SARS-CoV-2, whereas a B/Victoria lineage LAIV strain was unmodified.

Two live attenuated vaccines (LAVs), LMA and LMP, were evaluated alone or in combination with a trivalent adenoviral vector-based vaccine (Ad5-YFV) for their efficacy and immune responses in wild type (WT) and interferon gamma (IFNγ) knockout (KO) mice in a C57BL/6 background. While LMA and LMP are triple deletion mutants of CO92 strain, Ad5-YFV incorporates three protective plague immunogens. An impressive 80-100% protection was observed in all vaccinated animals against highly lethal intranasal challenge doses of parental CO92.
