Blood Infection Research Study

What we learn in this study may be helpful for blood infection prevention in the future.

What is the trial about?

The E.mbrace Study will assess the effectiveness and safety of an investigational vaccine in the prevention of blood infections in adults aged 60 or over. These blood infections can lead to serious complications such as dangerously low blood pressure or shock.

These infections are called an invasive (also known as systemic) infection, often referred to as an invasive E. coli disease (IED). Although IED affects all ages, adults aged 60 years and older have an increased risk of developing IED, which is further increased if you have had a urinary tract infection (UTI) in the past.

Study participants and/or their carer will be required to use a smartphone application to record and share information with their study team.

All FutureMeds trials are approved by an independent ethics committee.
