Brief Summary:

This is a Phase 1 randomized, open-label study to describe the safety and immunogenicity of up to 3 dose- level combinations of modRNA quadrivalent influenza vaccine (qIRV (22/23)) and bivalent BNT162b2 (original/Omi BA.4/BA.5). Participants will receive either:

  • qIRV (22/23)/bivalent BNT162b2 (original/Omi BA.4/BA.5), at 1 of the 3 dose-level combinations
  • qIRV (22/23) at dose level 1,
  • qIRV (22/23) at dose level 2, or
  • bivalent BNT162b2 (original/Omi BA.4/BA.5) at dose level 1 administered concurrently in the opposite arm to commercially licensed quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV).

  • Participation in strenuous or endurance exercise through Visit 3 of the study.
  • Prior history of heart disease.
  • Any abnormal screening troponin I laboratory value.
  • Screening 12-lead ECG that, as judged by the investigator, is consistent with probable or possible myocarditis or pericarditis, or demonstrates clinically relevant abnormalities that may affect participant safety or interpretation of study results.
