H10ssF-6473

Background: The flu is a common viral infection that can be deadly for certain people. Vaccines against flu have been developed to teach the body to prevent or fight the infection. A new vaccine may help the body to make an immune response to H10 flu, a flu strain that infects humans.
Objective:
To test the safety and effectiveness of the H10 Stabilized Stem Ferritin vaccine (VRC-FLUNPF0103-00-VP or H10ssF-6473).
Eligibility:
Healthy adults ages 18-70, but not born between 1965-1970
Design:
Participants received 1 or 2 vaccinations by injections (shots) in the upper arm muscle over 4 months. Participants received a thermometer and recorded their temperature and symptoms every day on/with/via a diary card for 7 days after each injection. The injection site was checked for redness, swelling, itching or bruising.
Participants had 8-10 follow-up visits over 10 months. At follow-up visits, participants had blood drawn and were checked for health changes or problems. Participants who reported influenza-like illness had nose and throat swabs collected for evaluation of viral infection.
Some participants had apheresis. A needle was placed into a vein in both arms. Blood was removed through a needle in the vein of one arm. A machine removed the white blood cells and then the rest of the blood was returned to the participant through a needle in the other arm.
