About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Partially-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Investigate Immune Responses Elicited by a Liquid Formulation of Influenza Virus Vaccine, Trivalent,Types A & B, Live Cold Adapted (CAIV-T) in Healthy Children Aged 6 to Less Than 36 Months

To perform a variety of assays on blood, nasal washes, and cells obtained from healthy children for the purposes of further investigation of immune responses generated by influenza virus vaccine, trivalent, types A and B, live, cold-adapted (liquid CAIV-T; Wyeth Lederle Vaccines, Marietta, PA).

  • To assess nasal swab specimens to detect vaccine virus shedding.
Read the detailed description

This was a phase II, prospective, randomized, partially-blinded, placebo-controlled, outpatient study conducted at multiple sites throughout the US in healthy children aged 6 months to less than 36 months. Parents/guardians of subjects were asked to read and sign the informed consent before any study-related procedures were performed. Subjects at each study site were sequentially assigned to 1 of 2 separate blood sample groups referred to as "cellular immunity" or "antibody secreting cell". Subjects within each blood sample group were then randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive a single intranasal dose of CAIV-T 10^7 FFU per dose, CAIV-T 10^5 FFU per dose, placebo or a commercially-available injectable trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV).

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of influenza-specific immune response following receipt of CAIV-T.

    The immune responses were evaluated by hemagglutination inhibition assay (HAI) on serum samples.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 27

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Vaccine virus shedding

    The number of subjects who shed influenza virus vaccine subtypes following vaccination.

    Measured: Days 2, 6, and 13

  2. Measurement of influenza-specific immune response following receipt of CAIVT.

    The immune responses were evaluated by mucosal IgA ELISA on nasal wash samples.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 27

  3. Measurement of influenza-specific immune responses following receipt of CAIVT

    The immune responses were evaluated by assays of cellular immunity (IFN-gamma ELISPOT) and assays that measured the number of antibody secreting cells (B-cell ELISPOT).

    Measured: Day 0, Day 6, and Day 13

  4. Assess the safety and tolerability of CAIV-T vaccine in healthy children.

    Adverse events and serious adverse events were collect from Day 0 till the end of the study Day 27.

    Measured: Day 0-27

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CAIV-T 10^7, CAIVT 10^5 and TIV in people with Influenza, run by MedImmune LLC at 2 sites in United States.

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 9 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 17 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

Measurement of influenza-specific immune response following receipt of CAIV-T. (time frame: Day 0 and Day 27). 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 NCT00192322, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Feb 2012.
