What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of any vaccine related and grade 3 solicited local and general adverse events

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

  2. Occurrence of any vaccine related and grade 3 unsolicited adverse events

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

  3. Occurrence of any vaccine related serious adverse events (SAE)

    Measured: From dose 1 to study conclusion

  4. Occurrence of any grade 3 laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: At 1 and 7 days after each vaccine dose

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Occurrence of any solicited local and general adverse events

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

  2. Occurrence of any unsolicited adverse events

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

  3. Occurrence of any laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: At 1 and 7 days after each vaccine dose

  4. Occurrence of any medically significant conditions prompting emergency room visits or physician visits regardless of casual relationship to vaccination or intensity

    Measured: From dose 1 to study conclusion

  5. Anti-pneumococcal and anti-NTHi candidate vaccine antigens

    Measured: At Days 0, 30 and 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Pneumococcal vaccine GSK2189241A and Pneumo 23™ in people with Infections, Streptococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 3 sites in Sweden.

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 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 10 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 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 of any vaccine related and grade 3 solicited local and general adverse events (time frame: During a 7-day follow up period after each vaccine dose). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00756067, 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 10 May 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
