About the Study

Traditional flu shots are updated every year, but scientists are now testing an entirely new approach to vaccine technology. A clinical trial is comparing a next-generation investigational flu vaccine directly against a standard, currently available flu shot.

If you are 65 or older and in stable health, you can help researchers evaluate this potential new alternative. All study-related care is provided at no cost, and compensation for your time and travel may be available.

Who Can Join

You may be able to participate in the flu vaccine research study if you: 

  • Are 65 years old or older
  • Are in stable health (participants with pre-existing but well-controlled chronic medical conditions are typically eligible).

You may not be eligible if you:

  • Have already received a flu vaccine within the past 6 months
  • Have tested positive for the flu in the past 6 months
  • Have a significantly compromised immune system due to a medical condition (e.g., active cancer or immunodeficiency) or are receiving immunosuppressive therapies (e.g., high-dose systemic corticosteroids, biological therapies, or chemotherapy).
  • Have a known history of severe allergic reactions to any component of mRNA vaccines or standard influenza vaccines.

*Additional inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply

Frequently Asked Questions.

What is a Clinical Trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that evaluates new medications, devices, or treatment approaches to determine if they are safe and effective. Clinical trials help doctors and researchers develop better treatments for current and future patients. All studies follow strict safety guidelines and are carefully monitored.
Each clinical study has specific requirements for participants based on factors such as age, medical history, and current health status. The eligibility criteria in each study protocol are used to identify the volunteers best qualified to participate.
No. Study-related medications, lab tests, and medical visits are provided at no cost to you. Participating in a clinical trial should never require you to pay for study-related care.
Many studies provide compensation for your time and travel. Compensation amounts vary by study and will be fully explained before you decide to enroll.
Health insurance is not required for most clinical trials. All study-related care, procedures, and doctor visits are typically provided at no cost to you.
Participation is completely voluntary. You may choose to leave a clinical trial at any time, for any reason. Your decision will not affect your regular medical care or relationship with your doctor.
Each study has specific eligibility criteria. The best way to find out if you qualify is to complete our online eligibility form or speak directly with a member of our research team.
