What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion for Anti-pertussis Toxoid and Anti-filamentous Hemagglutinin Antibodies Post-vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B®

    Seroconversion was assessed by means of enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for anti-pertussis toxoid (PT) and anti-filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) antibodies. Seroconversion was defined as ≥ 4 fold increase in antibody titers from Day 0 to 30 days after the third vaccination.

    Measured: 1 month post last vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants With Seroprotection for Anti-Hepatitis B, Anti-Polyribosyl Ribitol Phosphate (PRP), Anti-Tetanus, Anti-Diphtheria, and Anti-Polio Antibodies After Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B®

    Immunogenicity was assessed by radioimmunoassay (RIA) for anti-hepatitis B (HBs) and anti-PRP antibodies, enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for anti-tetanus, serum neutralization (SN) for anti-diphtheria, and microneutralization for anti-polio type 1, 2, and 3 antibodies.

    Seroprotection was defined as titers ≥ 10 mIU/mL for anti-Hepatitis Bs, ≥ 0.15 μg/mL for anti-PRP, ≥ 0.01 IU/mL for anti-tetanus and anti-diphtheria, and ≥ 8 1/dil for anti-polio types 1, 2, and 3 at 30 days after the third vaccination.

    Measured: Day 150 (1 month post-vaccination 3)

  3. Geometric Mean Titers of Anti-Tetanus Before and Post-vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B®

    Geometric mean titers to Tetanus antigen was assessed by means of enzyme immunoassay (EIA) before the first vaccination (at Day 0) and 1 month after the third vaccination (Day 150).

    Measured: Day 150 (1 month post-vaccination 3)

  4. Geometric Mean Titers of Anti-Polio Types 1, 2, and 3 Antibodies Before and Post-vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B®

    Geometric mean titers to the Polio Antigens were assessed by means of microneutralization assay for anti-polio types 1, 2, and 3 before the first vaccination (at Day 0) and 1 month post-vaccination 3 (Day 150).

    Measured: Day 150 (1 month post-vaccination 3)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants Reporting At Least One Solicited Injection Site Reaction Following Each Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™

    Solicited injection site reactions - erythema, edema, induration, and pain were assessed in each participant at the DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T and PENTAXIM™ injection sites

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants Reporting At Least One Solicited Injection Site Reaction Following Each Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or ENGERIX B®

    Solicited injection site reactions - erythema, edema, induration, and pain were assessed in each participant at the DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T and ENGERIX B® injection sites.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

  3. Number of Participants Reporting At Least One Solicited Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B®

    Solicited systemic reactions: Pyrexia (temperature), Somnolence, Irritability, Anorexia, Vomiting not otherwise specified (NOS), Diarrhea NOS, and Crying were assessed in each participant following vaccination.

    Grade 3 reactions defined as: Pyrexia (temperature), ≥ 39.1°C; Somnolence, sleeping most of the time; Irritability, continuously irritable for ≥ 3 hours; Anorexia, refused most or all feeds; Vomiting NOS, frequent vomiting and inability to have any oral intake; Diarrhea NOS, multiple liquid stools without any solid material; and Crying, persistent, inconsolable cry ≥ 3 hours and/or high-pitched cry.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T and DTaP-IPV//PRP~T combined vaccine & Recombinant hep B vaccine in people with Diphtheria and Tetanus, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 1 site in Argentina.

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 5 inclusion and 12 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 17 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Argentina. 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 21 Nov 2013). 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 for Anti-pertussis Toxoid and Anti-filamentous Hemagglutinin Antibodies Post-vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or PENTAXIM™ and ENGERIX B® (time frame: 1 month post last vaccination). 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 NCT00831311, 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 17 Dec 2013.
