Summary

This study tests an experimental vaccine from GSK that targets two respiratory viruses: RSV and hMPV. About 1,800 adults aged 18-80 will receive different doses to check safety and immune response. The goal is to see if a single shot can protect against both viruses, which can cause serious lung infections in older adults.
