What is being measured

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

  1. Haemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers Against Vaccine H1N1 Antigen

    Humoral immune response in terms of vaccine H1N1 haemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibodies against A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)v-like virus (Flu A/CAL/7/09) has been assessed. Antibody titers were presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).

    Measured: At Day 42

  2. Number of Seropositive Subjects for HI Antibodies

    A seropositive subject was defined as a subject with a serum HI titer equal to or above (≥) 1:10. The flu strain assessed was Flu A/CAL/7/09.

    Measured: At Day 42

  3. Number of Seroconverted Subjects in Terms of HI Antibodies

    Seroconversion (SCR) was defined as: For initially seronegative subjects [pre-vaccination titer below (<) 1:10], a post-vaccination titer ≥ 1:40. For initially seropositive subjects (pre-vaccination titer ≥ 1:10), at least a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. The flu strain assessed was Flu A/CAL/7/09.

    Measured: At Day 42

  4. Number of Seroprotected Subjects for HI Antibodies

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with a serum HI titer ≥ 1:40, which is usually accepted as indicating protection. The flu strain assessed was Flu A/CAL/7/09.

    Measured: At Day 42

  5. Geometric Mean Fold Increase (GMFR) for Serum HI Antibody Titer

    GMFR, also called seroconversion factor (SCF), was defined as the fold increase in serum HI geometric mean titers (GMTs) post-vaccination compared to pre-vaccination. The flu strain assessed was Flu A/CAL/7/09.

    Measured: At Day 42

Secondary outcomes (12)

    Measured: At Day 21 and Month 7

  6. Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccinations. Grade 3 pain (children below 6 years of age) = cried when limb was moved/spontaneously painful. Grade 3 pain (children above 6 years of age) = significant pain at rest; pain that prevented normal everyday activities.

  7. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were drowsiness, irritability, loss of appetite and fever [defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)]. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccinations. Grade 3 drowsiness = drowsiness which prevented normal everyday activities. Grade 3 irritability = crying that could not be comforted/prevented normal activity. Grade 3 loss of appetite = not eating at all. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.0 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as causally related to the vaccination

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  8. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, gastrointestinal, headache and temperature [defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)]. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccinations. Grade 3 = symptom which prevented normal everyday activity. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as causally related to the vaccination. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.0 °C.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  9. Number of Subjects With Any Medically-attended Events (MAEs)

    MAEs were defined as events for which the subject received medical attention defined as hospitalization, an emergency room visit, or a visit to or from medical personnel (medical doctor) for any reason. Any MAE(s) = Occurrence of any MAE(s) regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Measured: During the entire study period (from Month 0 up to Month 12)

  10. Number of Subjects With Adverse Events of Specific Interest (AESIs)/Potential Immune-mediated Disease (pIMDs)

    Adverse events of specific interest (AESI) were defined as AEs including autoimmune diseases and other mediated inflammatory disorders and assessed by the investigator as specific to the treatment administration. Potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) are a subset of AEs that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune aetiology.

    Measured: During the entire study period (from Month 0 up to Month 12)

  11. Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)

    An unsolicited 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 and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 AE = an AE which prevented normal, everyday activities. Related = AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: Within the 42-day (Days 0-41) post-vaccination period

  12. 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 or result in disability/incapacity.

    Measured: During the entire study period (from Month 0 to Month 12)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing GSK pandemic vaccine GSK2340272A in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 3 sites in Czechia.

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 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2018. 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 Czechia. 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 4 May 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?

Haemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers Against Vaccine H1N1 Antigen (time frame: At Day 42). The study lists 5 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 21 Sep 2018.
