Inclusion Criteria

  • Greater than or equal to 6 months (defined as greater than or equal to 180 days) of age at the time of screening and less than 25 months (defined as less than 750 days) of age at the time of enrollment. - In good health based on review of the medical record, history, and physical examination, without evidence of chronic disease. - Parent/guardian is willing and able to provide written informed consent as described in the study protocol. - Seronegative for RSV antibody, defined as a serum RSV-neutralizing antibody titer less than 1:40 at screening from a sample collected no more than 42 days prior to study product administration. - Note: results from specimens collected during screening for any study of an RSV vaccine developed by the Laboratory of Infectious Diseases (LID) (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases [NIAID], National Institutes of Health [NIH]) are acceptable. If study product will not be administered the same day as randomization (see the study protocol), it must be administered no more than 42 days after the screening sample is collected. - Growing normally for age in the opinion of the site clinician in the six months prior to enrollment AND has a current height and weight above the 3rd percentile for age and sex per Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards. - Has received routine immunizations appropriate for age (as per national Center for Disease Control Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices [ACIP]). Note: COVID-19 vaccination will not be required unless fully licensed for this age group and ACIP-recommended. See study-specific Manual of Procedures for further guidance - Is expected to be available for the duration of the study. - If born to an HIV-infected woman, potential participant must have documentation of 2 negative HIV nucleic acid (RNA or DNA) test results from samples collected on different dates with both collected when greater than or equal to 4 weeks of age and at least one collected when greater than or equal to 16 weeks of age, and no positive HIV nucleic acid (RNA or DNA) test; or 2 negative HIV antibody tests, both from samples collected at greater than or equal to 24 weeks of age. If potential participant was breastfed by an HIV-infected woman, each of the sampling times noted above must be measured in weeks after the last exposure to breast milk, rather than weeks of age.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior laboratory-confirmed RSV infection. - Known or suspected HIV infection or impairment of immunological functions. - Receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, including any systemic, nasal, or inhaled corticosteroids within 28 days of enrollment. Note: Cutaneous (topical) steroid treatment is not an exclusion. - Any receipt of bone marrow/solid organ transplant. - Major congenital malformations (such as congenital cleft palate) or cytogenetic abnormalities. - Previous enrollment in this trial, previous pediatric receipt of a licensed or investigational RSV vaccine, or previous maternal or pediatric receipt of or planned administration of any other anti-RSV product (such as ribavirin or RSV IG or RSV monoclonal antibody [mAb]) within 4 months of screening or planned administration of an anti-RSV product between screening and day 56 after enrollment. - Any previous anaphylactic reaction. - Any known hypersensitivity to any study product component. - Heart disease. Note: Potential participants with cardiac abnormalities documented to be clinically insignificant and requiring no treatment may be enrolled. - Lung disease, including any history of reactive airway disease or medically diagnosed wheezing. - Member of a household that contains a person with chronic lung disease, including but not limited to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, or home oxygen use, reactive airway disease or asthma.

Note: if COVID-19 vaccine has EUA approval and ACIP recommendation for this age group, it is not considered investigational - Scheduled administration of the following after planned study product administration (start counting with '1' as the day of planned study product administration): - inactivated vaccine or live-attenuated rotavirus vaccine within the 14 days after, or - any live vaccine other than rotavirus in the 28 days after, or - another investigational vaccine or investigational drug in the 56 days after. Note: if COVID-19 vaccine has EUA approval and ACIP recommendation for this age group, it is not considered investigational. - Receipt of immunoglobulin, any antibody products, or any blood products within the past 6 months prior to enrollment - Receipt of any of the following medications within 3 days prior to study enrollment: - systemic antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anti-parasitic, or antituberculous agents, whether for treatment or prophylaxis, or - intranasal medications, or - other prescription medication except as listed below - Permitted concomitant medications (prescription or non-prescription) include nutritional supplements, medications for gastroesophageal reflux, eye drops, and topical medications, including (but not limited to) cutaneous (topical) steroids, topical antibiotics, and topical antifungal agents. - Born at less than 34 weeks gestation. - Born between 34 weeks gestation and 36 weeks and 6 days gestation and less than 1 year of age at the time of enrollment. - Current suspected or documented developmental disorder, delay, or other developmental problem. - Any previous receipt of supplemental oxygen therapy in a home setting. - Known or suspected SARS-CoV-2 exposure within the 14 days prior to enrollment. Note: known or suspected SARS-CoV-2 includes a known asymptomatic household member under quarantine for SARS-CoV-2 exposure but without a positive SARS-CoV-2 test.

Detailed Description

This study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of the recombinant live-attenuated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines, RSV ΔNS2/Δ1313/I1314L, RSV 6120/ΔNS2/1030s, and RSV 276, in RSV-seronegative children 6 to 24 months of age. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive a single dose of RSV ΔNS2/Δ1313/I1314L vaccine, RSV 6120/ΔNS2/1030s vaccine, RSV 276 vaccine, or placebo intranasally at study entry. Participants will be enrolled in the study outside of RSV season. All participants will remain on study until they complete the post-RSV season visit between April 1 and April 30 in the calendar year following enrollment. Participants' total study duration will be between 6 and 13 months, depending on when they enroll in the study. Participants will attend several study visits throughout the study, which may include physical examinations, blood collection, and nasal washes. Participants' parents or guardians will be contacted by study staff at various times during the study to monitor participants' health.
