A Phase 3, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Observer-blind, Multi-country Study to Demonstrate the Efficacy of a Single Dose and Annual Revaccination Doses of GSK's RSVPreF3 OA Investigational Vaccine in Adults Aged 60 Years and Above
This study will evaluate the efficacy of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine in preventing Lower Respiratory Tract Disease (LRTD) caused by RSV in adults ≥60 years of age following a single dose of the RSVPreF3 OA vaccine and following annual revaccination doses in Northern Hemisphere (NH) and in Southern Hemisphere (SH). This study will also assess if the vaccine is safe and induces an immune response.
• A male or female ≥ 60 YOA at the time of first vaccination, who live in the community (community dwelling participants) or in a long-term care facility (LTCF participants).
• Participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol.
⁃ Note: In case of physical incapacity that would preclude the self-completion of the diary cards and/or questionnaires, either site staff can assist the participant (for activities performed during site visits) or the participant may assign a caregiver to assist him/her with this activity (for activities performed at home or in the LTCF). However, at no time, the site staff or caregiver will evaluate the participant's health status while answering diaries and/or questionnaires or make decisions on behalf of the participant
• Written or witnessed informed consent obtained from the participant prior to performance of any study specific procedure.
• Participants who are medically stable in the opinion of the investigator at the time of first vaccination. Participants with chronic stable medical conditions with or without specific treatment, such as diabetes, hypertension or cardiac disease, are allowed to participate in this study if considered by the investigator as medically stable.
