What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion by ELISA

    Seroconversion rate based on Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Seroconversion is defined as the appearance of antibody titers ≥ detection limit (50) for initially seronegative subjects, or a doubling or more of the antibody titer compared to Baseline titer for initially seropositive subjects. Percentages based on number of subjects with data available.

    Measured: week 6

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion by ELISA

    Seroconversion rate based on Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Seroconversion is defined as the appearance of antibody titers ≥ detection limit (50) for initially seronegative subjects, or a doubling or more of the antibody titer compared to Baseline titer for initially seropositive subjects. Percentages based on number of subjects with data available.

    Measured: within 32 weeks

  2. ELISA GMT

    Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) based on vaccinia-specific Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Titers below the detection limit are included with a value of '1'.

    Measured: within 32 weeks

  3. Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion by PRNT

    Seroconversion rate based on Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Seroconversion is defined as the appearance of antibody titers ≥ detection limit (15) for initially seronegative subjects, or a doubling or more of the antibody titer compared to Baseline titer for initially seropositive subjects. Percentages based on number of subjects with data available.

    Measured: within 32 weeks

  4. PRNT GMT

    Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) based on vaccinia-specific Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Titers below the detection limit are included with a value of '1'.

    Measured: within 32 weeks

  5. ELISPOT IFN-γ Values

    Number of interferon gamma (IFN-γ) secreting peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) per 10^6 PBMC in response to restimulation with MVA-BN detected by ELISPOT assay

    Measured: within 6 weeks

  6. Number of Participants With SAEs

    Occurrence, relationship and intensity of any serious AE (SAE)

    Measured: within 32 weeks

  7. Number of Participants With Related Grade >=3 Adverse Events

    Number of Participants with any Grade >=3 Adverse Event probably, possibly, or definitely related to the study vaccine. Pooled solicited (general) and unsolicited AEs.

    Measured: within 29 days after vaccination

  8. Number of Participants With Solicited Local Adverse Events

    Number of Participants with and Intensity of solicited local AEs (erythema, swelling and pain). Percentages based on subjects with at least one completed diary card.

    Measured: within 8 days after any vaccination

  9. Number of Participants With Solicited General AEs

    Number of Participants with solicited systemic/general AEs (elevated body temperature, headache, myalgia, nausea, fatigue and chills): Intensity and relationship to vaccination. Percentages based on subjects with at least one completed diary card.

    Measured: within 8 days after any vaccination

  10. Number of Unsolicited Non-serious Adverse Events: Intensity

    Occurrence of unsolicited non-serious AEs by Intensity

    Measured: within 29 days after any vaccination

  11. Number of Unsolicited Non-serious Adverse Events: Relationship to Vaccination

    Occurrence of unsolicited non-serious AEs by relationship to study vaccine

    Measured: within 29 days after any vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IMVAMUNE in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Bavarian Nordic at 22 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 9 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in United States, Mexico. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Jan 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion by ELISA (time frame: week 6). 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 NCT00316602, 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 9 Jan 2019.
