About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Open-label Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of a 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Older Infants and Children Who Are Naive to Previous Vaccination With Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a 13-valent Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (13vPnC) in older infants and children who have not previously been immunized with Pneumococcal vaccine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Antibody Level ≥0.35μg/mL After Vaccination

    Percentages of participants achieving World Health Organization (WHO) predefined antibody threshold ≥0.35μg/mL along with the corresponding 95% CI for the 7 common pneumococcal serotypes (serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F) and 6 additional pneumococcal serotypes specific to 13vPnC (serotypes 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F, and 19A) are presented.

    Measured: 28 to 42 days after vaccination 3 for Group 1 (13 to <17 months of age), after vaccination 2 for Group 2 (14 to <26 months of age), and after vaccination 1 for Group 3 (26 to <73 months of age).

  2. Geometric Mean Antibody Concentration (GMC) After Vaccination in 13vPnC Groups

    GMC as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for 7 common pneumococcal serotypes (serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F) and 6 additional pneumococcal serotypes specific to 13vPnC (Serotypes 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F, and 19A) are presented.

    Measured: 28 to 42 days after vaccination 3 for Group 1 (13 to <17 months of age), after vaccination 2 for Group 2 (14 to <26 months of age), and after vaccination 1 for Group 3 (26 to <73 months of age).

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Participants Reporting Pre-Specified Local Reactions

    Local reactions were collected using an electronic diary. Tenderness was scaled as Any (tenderness present); Significant (present and interfered with limb movement). Swelling and redness were scaled as Any (swelling or redness present); Mild (0.5 centimeters [cm] to 2.0 cm); Moderate (2.5 to 7.0 cm); Severe (>7.0 cm). Participants may be represented in more than 1 category.

    Measured: During the 4-day period after each dose

  2. Percentage of Participants Reporting Pre-Specified Systemic Events

    Systemic events (fever ≥ 37.5 degrees Celsius [C], fever ≥ 38 C but ≤ 39 C, fever >39 C but ≤ 40 C, fever > 40 C, decreased appetite, irritability, increased sleep, decreased sleep, hives, use of medication to treat symptoms, and use of medication to prevent symptoms) were reported using an electronic diary. Participants may be represented in more than 1 category.

    Measured: During the 4-day period after each dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in people with Pneumococcal Infections, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 9 sites in Poland.

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 4 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 15 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Poland. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Aug 2012). 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 Achieving Antibody Level ≥0.35μg/mL After Vaccination (time frame: 28 to 42 days after vaccination 3 for Group 1 (13 to <17 months of age), after vaccination 2 for Group 2 (14 to <26 months of age), and after vaccination 1 for Group 3 (26 to <73 months of age).). The study lists 2 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 15 Aug 2012.
