Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and reactogenicity of the intramuscular DPX-RSV(A)
Up to 28 Days after first injection.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety of a second dose of the DPX-RSV(A)
180 days after vaccination.
The immunogenicity of the DPX-RSV(A) as measured by antibodies directed to the SHe antigen
28 days after one dose of vaccine and 28 days after a the second dose of a two-dose vaccine schedule as measured by antibodies directed to the SHe antigen.
Persistence of the humoral immune response to two doses of the RSV investigational vaccines, as measured by anti-SHe antibodies
From Day 28 to Day 180 after second vaccination

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age 50-64 years, inclusive.
- Good general health status, as determined by history and physical examination no greater than 30 days prior to administration of the test article.
- Participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol (e.g. completion of Diary Cards, return for follow-up visits).
- Written informed consent obtained from the participant.
- If female of child-bearing potential and heterosexually active, has practiced adequate contraception for 30 days prior to injection, has a negative pregnancy test on the day of injection, and has agreed to continue adequate contraception until 180 days after injection. (Please refer to the glossary for the definition of child-bearing potential and adequate contraception).
You may not qualify if:
- Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) other than the study product within 28 days preceding the dose of study product, or planned use during the study period.
- Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the participant has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational vaccine/product (pharmaceutical product or device).
- Planned administration/ administration of a vaccine/product not foreseen by the study protocol within the period starting 28 days before injection of a study vaccine and ending 84 days after.
- Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the 3 months preceding the dose of study product or planned administration during the study period.
- Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination. (Laboratory testing for HIV, Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B will be performed during the screening visit).
- Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drug within 6 months prior to the product dose (for corticosteroids, this will mean prednisone ≥ 20 mg/day, or equivalent). Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
- Family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
- History of or current autoimmune disease.
- History of hypersensitivity to any test article constituent or products used during the course of study procedures.
- Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any ingredient in the formulation or component of the container.
- Pregnant or lactating female.
- Female planning to become pregnant or planning to discontinue contraceptive precautions within 180 days of study vaccine receipt.
- Any hematological (hemoglobin level, white blood cell \[WBC\], and platelet count) and biochemical (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\], aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\], blood urea nitrogen \[BUN\] and creatinine) abnormality as per local laboratory normal values considered clinically significant by the investigator.
- Transient mild laboratory abnormalities may be rescreened and the participant will be deemed eligible if the laboratory repeat test is normal as per local laboratory normal values and investigator assessment.
- Any acute or chronic, clinically significant disease, as determined by physical examination or laboratory screening tests.
