About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Open-Label, Controlled Trial to Compare the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Influenza Virus Vaccine, Trivalent, Type A&B, Live, Cold-Adapted (CAIV-T) With Influenza Virus Vaccine, Trivalent, Inactivated (TIV) in Children With a History of Recurrent Respiratory Tract Infections Aged 6 Months to Less Than 72 Months

  • Trial to compare the efficacy of the liquid formulation of CAIV-T with TIV against culture confirmed influenza illness in children.
Read the detailed description
  • The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of the liquid formulation of CAIV-T with TIV against culture confirmed influenza illness in children with a history of recurrent RTIs aged at least 6 months and less than 72 months of age.
  • The trial also provides the opportunity to compare the efficacy of CAIV-T with TIV on acute otitis media.

What participants receive

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

  • CAIV-T or TIVBiological

What is being measured

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

  1. To demostrate that the efficacy over one season against culture-confirmed influenza-illness caused by community-acquired subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the vaccine

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To demostrate that the efficacy over one season of CAIV-T is not inferior to that of TIV against culture-confirmed influenza-illness of any subtype

  2. To demonstrate that the efficacy of CAIV-T is not inferior to that of TIV against clinically-defined acute otitis media

  3. To compare the rate of occurence over a defined surveillance period in children with a histroy of recurrent RTIs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CAIV-T or TIV in people with Respiratory Tract Infections, run by MedImmune LLC at 2 sites in 2 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 5 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Israel, Spain. 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 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?

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?

To demostrate that the efficacy over one season against culture-confirmed influenza-illness caused by community-acquired subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the vaccine. 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 3 Oct 2006.
