Summary

This trial aims to test the safety and effectiveness of mRNA-1403 in preventing moderate to severe stomach flu caused by specific strains of the virus.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 years old who want to prevent severe stomach flu caused by norovirus. Participants should be healthy with no recent history of gastroenteritis and not pregnant. They can't join if they've had a bad reaction to vaccines before or are on medications that affect the immune system.
What is being tested?
The study tests mRNA-1403, which is a new vaccine aimed at preventing acute gastroenteritis from norovirus. Some participants will receive the actual vaccine while others will get a placebo, and researchers will compare results between these two groups.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include typical reactions seen with other vaccines such as soreness at injection site, fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, and chills. The severity of these side effects varies among individuals.
