About this study

Official title: Comparison of Maternal and Infant Immunization Strategies to Prevent Pneumococcal Disease

This prospective randomized evaluation of pneumococcal vaccine immunization of pregnant mothers, followed by pneumococcal conjugate immunization of their children is designed to assess the effects of these strategies on the immunogenicity and safety of both vaccines. We hypothesize that maternal followed by infant immunization will be safe and will provide higher levels of antibody from birth through 12 months of age.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized vaccine evaluation in 4 groups of mothers and their infants, to assess the effect of maternal immunization on the infants' response to pneumococcal vaccine.

Being tested
pneumococcal polysaccharide and protein conjugate vaccines
Keywords
gestational immunization,, infant antibody,, cord antibody
Medical subject headings

  • pneumococcal polysaccharide and protein conjugate vaccinesBiological

What is being measured

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

  1. Serum anti pneumococcal polysaccharide IgG antibody at 20 weeks of age

  2. local and systemic reactions within 2 weeks of vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Level and duration of serum IgG antibody to pneumococcus up to 1 year of age.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing pneumococcal polysaccharide and protein conjugate vaccines in people with Pneumococcal Infections, run by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health at 1 site in Bangladesh.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 23 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Bangladesh. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 anti pneumococcal polysaccharide IgG antibody at 20 weeks of age. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00142389, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 23 Jun 2011.
