What is being measured

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

  1. Immunogenicity with respect to the components of the study vaccine in terms of antibody concentrations

    Measured: Prior to the third primary vaccination dose ( Months 8-9)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Immunogenicity with respect to the components of the study vaccine in terms of antibody concentrations

    Measured: One month after the second and third primary vaccination dose (Month 3 and Months 9-10)

  2. Immunogenicity with respect to the components of the study vaccine in terms of number of seroprotected subjects defined by antibody concentration

    Measured: Prior to and one month after the third primary vaccination dose ( Months 8-9 and Months 9-10)

  3. Immunogenicity with respect to the components of the study vaccine in terms of number of seropositive subjects

    Measured: Prior to and one month after the third primary vaccination dose ( Months 8-9 and Months 9-10)

  4. Occurrence of solicited symptoms

    Measured: Within 4 days (Day 0 -Day 3) after each vaccine dose

  5. Occurrence of a grade "3" solicited symptoms

    Measured: Within 4 days (Day 0 -Day 3) after each vaccine dose

  6. Occurrence of unsolicited adverse events

    Measured: Within 31 days after any vaccination

  7. Occurrence of Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: Throughout the entire study up to (Month 0 to Month 9-10) and including 30 days after last vaccination (Month 9-10)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib Vaccine (INFANRIX™ HEXA) and DTPa-HBV-IPV-Hib vaccine (HEXAVAC™) in people with Hepatitis B and Poliomyelitis, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 9 sites in 3 countries.

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 10 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 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Italy, Sweden, Finland. 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?

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?

Immunogenicity with respect to the components of the study vaccine in terms of antibody concentrations (time frame: Prior to the third primary vaccination dose ( Months 8-9)). 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 NCT01457547, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Aug 2016.
