About this study

Official title: Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase IIa Dose Finding Study of Single Dose GHB11L1 in Healthy Adults

The purpose of this phase IIa trial is to evaluate the immunogenicity of a single dose of GHB11L1 administered by liquid nasal spray for vaccination against influenza A (H1N1) virus.

This study is also performed to assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (shedding) of a single dose of GHB11L1 administered by liquid nasal spray.

Read the detailed description

GHB11L1 intends to provide a novel vaccination for influenza virus infection. 48 healthy volunteers will be included in this phase IIa study investigating three dose levels. 16 subjects will be randomised at a ratio of 3:1 for GHB11L1 or placebo.

Healthy male volunteers, 18-50 years of age and seronegative with respect to the applied virus antigens (antibody titers <1:10 detected) will be randomised.

GHB11L1 will be administered once on day 1. Follow-up visits will be performed on days 2, 8 and 29.

Being tested
GHB11L1, Placebo
Keywords

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing GHB11L1 in people with Influenza, Human, run by AVIR Green Hills Biotechnology AG at 1 site in Austria.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2011. 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 Austria. 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 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?

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?

Local and systemic immune response (time frame: From baseline to day 29 (end of study)). 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 5 Jan 2011.
