Trial summary

This study will lay the foundation for determining the underlying reasons for lack of immunity to mumps that led to the 2006 mumps outbreak on college campuses in the Mid West, and it will assess the potential for similar outbreaks of measles and rubella. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Persistence of Humoral and Cellular Immune Responses Following Age-appropriate Vaccination With the MMR Vaccine

This study will lay the foundation for determining the underlying reasons for lack of immunity to mumps that led to the 2006 mumps outbreak on college campuses in the Mid West, and it will assess the potential for similar outbreaks of measles and rubella. A total of 70 to 80 college students (age 18 to 22) on the Emory campus (or nearby college campuses or the community) will be assessed for antibodies to measles, mumps or rubella by drawing a one-time blood sample. Their medical records will be verified for documentation of immunization with MMR vaccine prior to enrollment in the study. If a study volunteer is found to not have MMR immunity, they will be offered an MMR-II vaccine. For this group, additional blood specimens will be obtained.

What is being measured

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

  1. Levels of mumps antibody and levels of memory B and T cell responses

    Cross sectional measurement of antibodies to mumps. measles or rubella

    Measured: Day 1 for all participants except for those who receive MMR vaccine, there will be additional outcome measures on Day 0, 7, 14 and 28 post-vaccination.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine proportion of college-aged students who are seronegative for mumps

    Cross-sectional measurement of antibodies to mumps, measles and rubella

    Measured: outcome measurement on Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Measles and Mumps, run by Sri Edupuganti, MD MPH at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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 Oct 2021. 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 United States. 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.

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?

Levels of mumps antibody and levels of memory B and T cell responses (time frame: Day 1 for all participants except for those who receive MMR vaccine, there will be additional outcome measures on Day 0, 7, 14 and 28 post-vaccination.). 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 NCT00962819, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Oct 2021.
