About this study

Official title: A Phase 4, Randomized, Open-label Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of DTaP Vaccine in Healthy Infants Given With a 7-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Japan.

Subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups to receive the following vaccines: Group 1: 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (7vPnC) and diphtheria, tetanus, and accelular pertussis vaccine (DTaP), Group 2: DTaP alone. Group 2 subjects will also receive catch-up doses of 7vPnC. The study vaccines will be open-label. The main purpose of the study is to demonstrate that the immune responses as measured by serum antibody responses to diphtheria toxin, tetanus toxin, pertussis toxin (PT) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA) induced by DTaP given concomitantly with 7vPnC are comparable to the immune responses induced by DTaP given alone. In addition, the study aims to evaluate the side effects (safety profile) after vaccination of 7vPnC when given with DTaP in healthy Japanese infants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Predefined Antibody Levels for Diphtheria Toxoid, Tetanus Toxoid, and Pertussis Antigens 1 Month After the Infant Series

    Percentage of participants achieving predefined antibody level along with the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were presented. Exact 2-sided CI based on the observed proportion of participants. Predefined antibody levels were 0.1 International Units/mL (IU/mL) for diphtheria, 0.01 IU/mL for tetanus, 5 Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) units/mL (EU/mL) for pertussis toxoid (PT), and 5 EU/mL for filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA).

    Measured: 1 month after the infant series

  2. Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) for Antigen-specific Diphtheria and Tetanus Antibody 1 Month After the Infant Series

    Geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) were measured in IU/mL and corresponding 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) were evaluated for diphtheria and tetanus antibodies.

    Measured: 1 month after the infant series

  3. Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) for Antigen-specific Acellular Pertussis Antibody 1 Month After the Infant Series

    GMCs were measured in EU/mL and corresponding 2-sided 95% CI were evaluated for PT and FHA antibodies.

    Geometric mean fold rises (GMFRs) for the 7 pneumococcal serotypes (serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F) from prevaccination to 1 month postvaccination were computed using the logarithmically transformed assay results. CI for the GMFRs were back transformations of a CI based on the Student t distribution for the logarithmically transformed assay results.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing 7-pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (7vPnC), diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) and DTaP in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Pfizer at 18 sites in Japan.

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 5 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 26 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Japan. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 26 Feb 2013). 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?

Percentage of Participants Achieving Predefined Antibody Levels for Diphtheria Toxoid, Tetanus Toxoid, and Pertussis Antigens 1 Month After the Infant Series (time frame: 1 month after the infant series). 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 26 Feb 2013.
