What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • rotavirus vaccine, live, oral, pentavalentBiological

    Also called V260, RotaTeq™

    Three oral doses (~8.81 X 10^7 IU/Dose for Lot 1; ~8.01 X 10^7 IU/Dose for Lot 2; and ~6.91 X 10^7 IU/Dose for Lot 3) of RotaTeq™ (rotavirus vaccine, live, oral, pentavalent) administered at 3 separate visits scheduled 4 to 10 weeks (28 to 70 days) apart with up to 42 days of safety follow up after each vaccination

  • PlaceboBiological

    Placebo-matching RotaTeq™ administered at 3 separate visits scheduled 4 to 10

    weeks (28 to 70 days) apart with up to 42 days of safety follow up after each vaccination

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Serum Neutralizing Antibodies (SNA) Response Against Rotavirus Serotypes G1, G2, G3, G4 and P1A[8]

    Antibody response to 3 manufactured lots of RotaTeq™ and placebo groups, based on the SNA PostDose 3 geometric mean titers (GMTs) (expressed in dilution units) against rotavirus serotypes G1, G2, G3, G4 and P1A[8]

    Measured: 42 days following the 3rd vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing rotavirus vaccine, live, oral, pentavalent in people with Rotavirus Infections, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Apr 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serum Neutralizing Antibodies (SNA) Response Against Rotavirus Serotypes G1, G2, G3, G4 and P1A[8] (time frame: 42 days following the 3rd vaccination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Oct 2015.
