About this study

Official title: A Phase IIIb, Open, Randomised, Multicentre, Primary Study in Healthy Children, to Establish the Non-inferiority of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' MeMuRu-OKA Vaccine (Administered at 9 and 15 Months of Age) Versus Priorix™ (9 Months of Age) and Priorix™ Co-administered With Varilrix™ at 15 Months of Age (Comparator) and Also to Evaluate the Non-inferiority of Priorix™ (9 Months of Age) and MeMuRu-OKA Vaccine (15 Months of Age) Versus the Comparator, All Administered Subcutaneously as Two-dose Primary Vaccination Course

The purpose of this study is to assess non-inferiority of two different vaccination regimens using GSK Biological's MMRV vaccine (two doses at 9 and 15 months) or Priorix™ (9 months) and one dose of MMRV vaccine (15 months) to the current standard of care which is Priorix™ administered at 9 months of age followed by concomitant administration of Priorix™ with Varilrix™ at 15 months of age in a measles endemic environment such as India.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Seroconverted for Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella Antibodies

    Seroconversion was defined as the appearance of antibodies [i.e. concentration/titre greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off value] in the serum of subjects seronegative before vaccination. The cut-off values for seroconversion were 150 milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL), 231 units per milliliter (U/mL), 4 international units per milliliter (IU/mL) and for immunoglobulin G (IgG) varicella antibodies 1:4 dilution for measles, mumps, rubella and varicella, respectively.

    Measured: At 42 - 56 days after the second vaccination dose at week 30

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of Seroconverted Subjects for Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella Antibodies

    Seroconversion was defined as the appearance of antibodies (i.e. concentration/titre ≥ the cut-off value) in the serum of subjects seronegative before vaccination. The cut-off values for seroconversion were 150 mIU/mL, 231 U/mL, 4 IU/mL and for IgG varicella antibodies 1:4 dilution for measles, mumps, rubella and varicella, respectively.

    Measured: Approximately 42 to 56 days after the first vaccine dose at week 6

  2. Antibody Concentrations Against Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella Viruses

    Antibody concentrations were summarized by geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

    Measured: At 42 - 56 days after the first (at Week 6) and second (at Week 30) vaccination dose

  3. Number of Subjects Reporting Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = cried when limb was moved/spontaneously painful. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 20 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period following each dose (Dose 1 and Dose 2)

  4. Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were meningism and parotid gland swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 meningism and parotid gland swelling = meningism/parotid gland swelling which prevented normal everyday activities. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: During the 43-day (Days 0-42) post-vaccination period following each dose (Dose 1 and Dose 2)

  5. Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Fever

    Any fever was defined as fever ≥ 38.0°C and grade 3 fever was defined as fever > 39.5°C after vaccination. Related fever was defined as fever assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: During the 43-day (Days 0-42) post-vaccination period following each dose (Dose 1 and Dose 2)

  6. Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Rash

    Any rash was defined as incidence of a rash regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccination and grade 3 rash greater than (>) 150 lesions. Related rash was defined as rash assessed by the investigator as causally related to the vaccination

    Measured: During the 43-day (Days 0-42) post-vaccination period following each dose (Dose 1 and Dose 2)

  7. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Unsolicited Adverse Event

    An unsolicited Adverse Event (AE) covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. Any was defined as an AE reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study. Also any 'solicited' symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms was reported as an unsolicited adverse event.

    Measured: Within 43-day (Days 0-42) after the first and second vaccination dose

  8. Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, result in disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject.

    Measured: From the first study dose up to study end (Month 0 to Month 7.5 approximately)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing GSK Biological's investigational MMRV vaccine 208136, Priorix™ and Varilrix™ in people with Varicella and Rubella, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 6 sites in India.

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 16 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 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in India. 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 25 Sep 2017). 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?

Number of Subjects Seroconverted for Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella Antibodies (time frame: At 42 - 56 days after the second vaccination dose at week 30). 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 NCT00969436, 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 8 Jun 2018.
