About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo, Controlled Trial, to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Influenza Virus Vaccine, Trivalent, Types A & B Live Cold-Adapted Liquid Formulation (CAIV-T) in Healthy Children and Adolescents Ages 6 to Less Than 18 Years.

A safety study to compare, over a 7 day period, the fever rates following one dose of either Influenza Virus Vaccine or placebo administered outside the influenza season to healthy children and adolescents aged 6 to less than 18 years.

Read the detailed description

This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study. Subjects were randomized to receive either CAIV-T or Placebo. All subjects were healthy children and adolescents aged at least 6 years of age and less than 18 years of age at the time of enrollment.

Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • Cold-adapted influenza vaccine trivalent (CAIV-T)Biological

    The total volume of 0.2 ml was administered intranasally with a spray applicator (approximately 0.1 ml into each nostril). Each dose of CAIV-T used in this study contained approximately 10^7+/-0.5 fluorescent focus units (FFU) (equivalent to 10^7+/-0.5 TCID50) of each of the following three influenza virus strains: Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type H1N1, strain A/New Caledonia/20/99; Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type H3N2, strain A/ Panama/2007/99; Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type B, strain B/Hong Kong/ 330/01.

  • PlaceboBiological

    The placebo consisted of physiologic normal saline.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects with fever greater than or equal to 39.1C oral

    Measured: Days 0-7

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of subjects with any reactogenicity

    Following vaccination the following reactions were reported daily: runny nose/nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, vomiting, decreased activity level, decreased appetite, irritability, abdominal pain together with oral temperature were referred to as prompted systemic reactions.

    Measured: Day 0-7

  2. Number of subjects with any adverse events

    Adverse events were defined as any untoward, undesired or unexpected clinical event in the form of signs, symptoms, disease or laboratory or physiological observations that occurred in a temporal relationship to the use of a WVR product, regardless of causal relationship.

    Measured: Days 0-7

  3. Number of subjects with any serious adverse events

    A Serious AE was an AE that occurred after any dose that: resulted in death, regardless of cause; was life-threatening; required in-patient hospitalization or prolonged an existing hospitalization; resulted in a persistent or significant disability or incapacity; resulted in cancer; resulted in a congenital anomaly or birth defect (in the offspring of a vaccine recipient, where applicable).

    Measured: Days 0-21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cold-adapted influenza vaccine trivalent (CAIV-T) in people with Influenza, run by MedImmune LLC at 6 sites in 3 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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 2 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Belgium, United Kingdom, Poland. 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. 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 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?

Number of subjects with fever greater than or equal to 39.1C oral (time frame: Days 0-7). 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 2 Mar 2012.
