Trial summary

As the licensed pneumococcal vaccine is not always satisfactory in elderly, new investigational pneumococcal vaccines are evaluated in the healthy elderly population. Note: The study consists of the primary phase (106068): vaccination and follow-up and the extension (106072) of the primary phase: 1 year follow-up. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II, Randomized, Observer Blinded Study to Evaluate and Compare the Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' Investigational Pneumococcal Vaccine Formulations Versus a Licensed Non-GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' Vaccine and GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' Aluminum-based 10-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine, in Healthy Elderly Subjects

As the licensed pneumococcal vaccine is not always satisfactory in elderly, new investigational pneumococcal vaccines are evaluated in the healthy elderly population. Note: The study consists of the primary phase (106068): vaccination and follow-up and the extension (106072) of the primary phase: 1 year follow-up.

This protocol posting details the procedures of both the primary \& extension phase.

Read the detailed description

No new subjects will be enrolled in the Extension Phase of the study. All outcome measures at Month 12 will only be evaluated in the subjects in the Belgian site.

Upon request, volunteers will receive flu vaccination free of charge. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of any solicited local and general signs and symptoms.

    Measured: during a 7-day follow up period after each vaccine dose.

  2. Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of unsolicited local and general signs and symptoms

    Measured: during a 31-day follow up period after each vaccine dose.

  3. Occurrence and relationship to vaccination of all serious adverse events (SAEs).

    Measured: Throughout the study period.

  4. Post vaccination concentration IgG ≥5 µg/mL and fold increase Post/Pre ≥2 for at least 6 serotypes out of 11

    Measured: 1 month after Dose 2 in Groups A, B, C and 1 month after Dose 1 for Group D

  5. Post vaccination concentration and fold increase Post/Pre ≥2 for at least 6 serotypes out of 11, in Groups A through D.

    Measured: One month after the first vaccine dose.

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Haematological and biochemical levels within or outside the normal ranges in all groups.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 3, 4 and 12.

  2. IgG antibody concentrations to vaccine pneumococcal serotypes in all groups.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 3, 4 and 12.

  3. Opsonophagocytic activity titres (OPA) against pneumococcal serotypes in all groups.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 3, 4 and 12

  4. Frequencies of IgG PS-specific plasma cells generated by in vitro cultivated memory B-cells for 4 serotypes in all groups, and for 11 serotypes in 10 subjects per group.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 4 and 12.

  5. Anti-protein D, anti-tetanus and anti-diphtheria toxoids IgG antibody concentrations in Groups A, B, C and E.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 3, 4 and 12.

  6. Frequencies of IgG carrier protein-specific plasma cells generated by in vitro cultivated memory B-cells in a subset of subjects (all subjects minus PS B-cell memory subset) of the Groups A, B, C and E.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 4 and 12.

  7. Freq. of CD4+&CD8+ T cells with antigen-specific IL-2 &/or INFy &/or TNFa &/or CD40L secretion/expression to carrier protein as determined by ICS, in a subset of subjects (all subjects minus PS B-cell memory subset) of the Groups A, B, C and E.

    Measured: At Months 0, 1, 4 and 12.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 11-valent pneumococcal vaccine GSK513026, Pneumo 23™ and 10-valent pneumococcal vaccine GSK513026 in people with Infections, Streptococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 3 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 3 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 8 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Belgium, Finland, Sweden. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Occurrence, intensity and relationship to vaccination of any solicited local and general signs and symptoms. (time frame: during a 7-day follow up period after each vaccine dose.). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 May 2017.
