Show all 22Show fewer
  • Individuals who have received any vaccine against Shigella or had proven or suspected shigellosis (bloody diarrhoea with fever) within 6 months prior to study entry
  • Individuals with a significant level of immunity against Shigella detected at the screening visit (defined as serum ELISA anti-LPS IgG antibody titre greater than 3 S.D. above the mean background activity of a bank of healthy human sera)
  • A Clinically significant amount of protein or haemoglobin in the urine sample at the screening visit

  • A positive Shigella stool culture at the screening visit
  • Individuals with a known impairment of immune function or those receiving immunosuppressive therapy (including systemic corticosteroids). Inhaled or topical steroid preparation are not a non-inclusion criterion
  • Individuals with acute infections (including fever > 37.5°C oral temperature)at the time of immunisation or any chronic disease

  • Individuals with any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the evaluation with the study objectives
  • Individuals who have received an investigational product within 30 days prior to entry
  • Individuals who cannot read, speak fluent French or English according to the investigational site setting
  • Individuals who are planning to leave England or France prior to the end of the study period or who are likely not to complete the study
  • Individuals who have persons living with them who in the opinion of the investigator may be at risk of disease if exposed to the vaccine strain or whose occupation may bring them into contact with persons at risk of disease or who are food handlers by occupation
  • Individuals with close household contact with child younger than 5 years or a person with immunodeficiency

About this study

Official title: A Comparative Double Blind Placebo-Controlled Study of Immunogenicity and Safety of Two Doses 10^5 and 10^7 CFU of SC599 Oral Vaccine, a Live Attenuated Shigella Dysenteriae 1 Vaccine Strain in Healthy Human Adult Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to assess the immune response produced by two doses of SC599 vaccine compared to placebo.

What participants receive

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

  • SC599Biological

What is being measured

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

  1. Immune response assessed by the proportion of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) anti-Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Antibody-Secreting Cells (ASC) responders.

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. 1) Immune Response:

  2. -Proportion of volunteers who have a B subunit antibody response

  3. -Proportion of volunteers who have a LPS response

  4. 2) SC599 Shedding

  5. -Proportion of volunteers who will excrete the vaccine strain and by the duration of the SC5999 shedding, defined as the time (days) between the first an last stool that were positive for SC599.

  6. 3) Safety Assessment

  7. -The safety will be evaluated by the proportions of clinical and biological adverse events. Illness after vaccination will be defined as either diarrhoea or fever.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SC599 in people with Shigella Infection, run by Institut Pasteur 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 6 inclusion and 22 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 8 Aug 2018. 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 France, United Kingdom. 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 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?

Immune response assessed by the proportion of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) anti-Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Antibody-Secreting Cells (ASC) responders.. 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 8 Aug 2018.
