Chikungunya vaccine trial for teens and adults
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests an experimental chikungunya vaccine (made from a virus-like particle) to see if it prevents the disease. It is for healthy teens and adults who have not had chikungunya before.

This study tests a vaccine for chikungunya virus in children aged 1 to 12. It aims to see if the vaccine is safe and helps the body build protection against the virus.
This study tests a new vaccine to see if it's safe and helps protect against chikungunya virus (a mosquito-borne illness causing fever and joint pain). It's for healthy adults ages 18 to 60 who haven't recently traveled to areas with similar viruses or received certain other vaccines.
This study tests a new vaccine to protect against chikungunya virus, a disease spread by mosquitoes that causes fever and joint pain. The study measures how well your immune system responds to the vaccine and tracks any side effects.
This trial tests whether giving two vaccines (one for dengue, one for chikungunya) at the same time is as safe and effective as giving them separately. It may be a good option if you haven't been exposed to these viruses and are generally healthy.
This study follows pregnant women who received the VLA1553 vaccine (for chikungunya) to see how it affects them and their babies. It compares them to pregnant women who received a different vaccine approved during pregnancy.
This study looks at how well the VLA1553 vaccine prevents chikungunya disease in parts of Brazil where the vaccine is being offered as part of a pilot program. If you live in one of those areas and have had symptoms that might be chikungunya, this study will use your health records and blood tests to check how effective the vaccine is.
