About this study

Official title: Phase I/II, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Dosage Selection (10e5.5 or 10e6.25 FFU of Each Constituent Serotype Per 0.5 mL) Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of a 3-dose Series of Live Attenuated Tetravalent (G1-G4) Bovine-Human Reassortant Rotavirus Vaccine [BRV-TV] Administered to Healthy Indian Infants

A double blind placebo controlled Phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the Live Attenuated Tetravalent (G1-G4) Bovine-Human Reassortant Rotavirus Vaccine [BRV-TV]in Indian infants. The study would be carried out in 90 healthy infants. Three doses of the rotavirus vaccine or placebo would be administered orally to each infant at 6-8, 10-12 and 14-16 weeks of age. The rotavirus vaccine would be administered at one of the two planned virus concentrations (10e5.5 or 10e6.25 FFU of each constituent serotype per 0.5 ml). Each administration of the vaccine/placebo would be preceded by oral administration of 2.0 mL of antacid.

What is being measured

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

  1. The frequency, severity, and causality of Reactogenicity Events and other Adverse Events.

    Measured: After each dose and upto 28 days after third dose

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The Seroconversion rate, Sero-response rate and the GMT of serum IgA antibody against rotavirus.

    Measured: After each dose and upto 28 days after third dose

  2. The frequency and duration of post-vaccination shedding of vaccine rotavirus in stool samples

    Measured: After each dose and upto 7 days after third dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Live Attenuated Tetravalent (G1-G4) Bovine-Human Reassortant Rotavirus Vaccine in people with Rotavirus Gastroenteritis, run by Shantha Biotechnics Limited at 1 site 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 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2010. 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mandeep S Dhingra, MD (+914066301000 ext. 1801, drmandeep@shanthabiotech.co.in), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The frequency, severity, and causality of Reactogenicity Events and other Adverse Events. (time frame: After each dose and upto 28 days after third dose). 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 4 Oct 2010.
