Effect of Messaging on Pragmatic Outcomes Within an Integrated Healthcare System

Covid-19 Vaccination

COVID-19 vaccination among patients at high risk for severe disease has declined in the United States since 2022. Prior research, including discrete choice experiments (DCEs), has demonstrated that vaccine preferences are influenced by attributes such as effectiveness, safety, convenience, and protection against severe disease. Although DCEs provide valuable insights into stated vaccine preferences and decision-making, they rely on hypothetical scenarios and cannot directly assess how vaccine attributes influence real-world vaccine uptake. Additional research is needed to understand the relationship between vaccine characteristics and observed COVID-19 vaccination behavior in routine clinical practice. The EMPOWeR study is a pragmatic randomized controlled trial conducted within Kaiser Permanente Southern California (KPSC) to evaluate the effect of immunization messages and reminders that highlight COVID-19 vaccine choices on vaccine uptake. The primary research questions are: 1. Does having a choice in COVID-19 vaccine platform affect vaccine uptake among patients at high-risk of severe disease? 1a. Does having a choice in COVID-19 vaccine platform affect vaccine uptake among patients at high-risk of severe disease, when differences in vaccine platform are highlighted? 1b. Does having a choice in COVID-19 vaccine platform affect vaccine uptake among patients at high-risk of severe disease, when a trusted healthcare professional (HCP) endorses both vaccine options? 1c. Does having a choice in COVID-19 vaccine platform affect vaccine uptake among patients at high-risk of severe disease, when vaccine reactogenicity is highlighted? A secondary research question is: 2. Does having a choice in COVID-19 vaccine additionally increase uptake of influenza vaccine? During the 2026-2027 respiratory virus season, eligible KPSC members who are at high-risk of severe COVID-19 will be randomly assigned to receive a standard reminder message or a reminder message with additional information about available COVID-19 vaccine options.

A Study to Learn About a Clostridioides Difficile Vaccine in People 65 Years of Age and Older

Clostridoides Difficile Associated Disease

The purpose of the study is to learn about how effective, safe, and tolerable the Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) vaccine is in decreasing the number of C. difficile infections (pCDI) in adults 65 years of age or older. The participants will receive either the C. difficile vaccine or placebo (saline). A placebo does not contain any active ingredients. The vaccines will be given as a shot into the upper arm muscle. This study looks at the number of diarrhea (loose stools) events related to a C. difficile infection, so the length of the study can change. If these events happen quickly, the study may finish sooner; if they happen slowly, it could take longer. Sometimes, the study might stop early if the vaccine clearly does not work. Participants will stay in the study until enough events have occurred to answer the main question. On average, each person is expected to take part for up to about three and a half years. During this time, participants will have 3 planned clinic visits and 3 planned phone visits. After these visits, more scheduled clinic visits will happen every year until the end of study. Besides the scheduled study visits, if at any time during the study a participant has 3 or more loose stools in 24 hours, they will be asked to save the next one (the fourth or later) and contact the study site. The study site will check to see if it could be a C. difficile infection. This check may happen at the clinic or through a phone or video call.

A Study to Learn About How a New Pneumococcal Vaccine Works in Infants.

Pneumococcal Disease

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of a new pneumococcal vaccine and how the new pneumococcal vaccine helps to fight against germs that can cause pneumonia (lung infections), meningitis (brain infections), and otitis media (ear infections) in infants when compared to the pneumococcal vaccine that is currently in use, 20vPnC (Prevnar 20®). This study will test if the new pneumococcal vaccine is as safe as the one that is currently in use. It will also assess how the new vaccine works in comparison to the one that is currently in use when given with other childhood vaccines. To measure how the new pneumococcal vaccine compares to the current one, blood samples will be used to measure the body's ability to create proteins to fight those germs. This new vaccine can possibly provide additional protection against germs that cause pneumococcal disease that are not included in the vaccines that are currently given to infants. Pneumococcal disease includes a variety of infections caused by a specific germ, Streptococcus pneumoniae. There are three groups in this study. All participants will be assigned to one of the three groups. This study is seeking participants who are: * infants who are 2 months of age in Group 1; * infants who are 2 to 6 months of age in Groups 2 and 3; and * said to be healthy by the study doctor About 3000 infants will be assigned to Group 1. The infants in this group will have a 1 in 2 chance (50%) of receiving either PG4 (new vaccine) or 20vPnC (currently in use) into the left thigh muscle at 2, 4, 6, and 12 to 15 months of age. About 140 infants from outside the United States will be assigned to Group 2. The infants in this group will have a 1 in 2 chance (50%) of receiving either PG4 or 20vPnC into the left thigh muscle at 2 to 6, 3 to 8, 4 to 10, and 12 to 15 months of age. About 90 infants from outside the United States will be assigned to Group 3. The infants in Group 3 will have a 1 in 3 chance (33%) of receiving either PG4 into the left thigh muscle, PG4 under the skin of the left thigh, or 20vPnC into the left thigh muscle at 2 to 6, 3 to 8, 4 to 10, and 12 to 15 months of age. Infants in Group 1 will take part in this study for about 16 to 19 months (about 1 and a half years). Infants in Groups 2 and 3 will take part in this study for 12 to 21 months (about 1 to 1 and a half years). During this time, infants will have 6 study clinic visits and 1 phone call. At these study clinic visits, parent(s)/legal guardian(s) will be asked if the infant experienced any side effects. A side effect is an unintentional or unexpected reaction to a vaccine. Infants will have 3 blood samples collected.
