Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 6 months to 25 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: HIV-1 perinatally infected children and youth 6 months to 25 years of age. For inclusion into the study, if perinatal acquisition of HIV infection cannot be confirmed based on the child's medical record, it is acceptable to enroll the child if the investigator's assessment is that the most likely route of infection was perinatal.

Who may be able to join

  • Children and youth 6 months to <25 years of age at study entry.
  • HIV infection, defined as positive test results obtained from 2 different samples. Tests may include two of the same type OR two different types of tests listed below, as long as there are positive test results obtained from 2 different samples:
  • HIV-1 antibody (ELISA + WB), obtained at age >18 months
  • HIV-1 culture, any age
  • HIV-1 DNA PCR, any age
  • HIV-1 RNA PCR >10,000 copies/mL, any age
Show all 13Show fewer
  • Neutralizable HIV-1 p24 antigen obtained >28 days of age

  • Parent or legal guardian, youth of legal age, or subjects who are emancipated minors, who are willing and able to provide signed informed consent.
  • Planned receipt of one of the following FDA licensed Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccines within 24 hours following study entry:

  • Has received any 2009 H1N1 vaccines prior to the day of entry.
  • Has received any immunoglobulin or blood products within 3 months prior to study entry.
  • Has any condition that would, in the opinion of the site investigator, place the subject at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the subject unable to meet the requirements of the study.
  • Use of anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the 36 months preceding study entry, or has immunosuppression as a result of an underlying illness or treatment (other than HIV-1 infection).
  • Has an active neoplastic disease.
  • Long term use of glucocorticoids, including oral or parenteral prednisone or equivalent (more than or equal to 2 mg/kg per day or more than or equal to 20 mg total dose) for more than 2 weeks in the past 6 months, or high-dose inhaled steroids (>800 mcg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent) within the preceding 6 months (nasal and topical steroids are allowed).

About this study

Official title: A Laboratory Study to Assess the Immunogenicity of Three Licensed Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccines in HIV-1 Perinatally Infected Children and Youth

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the immune response to the H1N1 influenza or "flu" vaccine. The "immune response" is how your body recognizes and defends itself against bacteria, viruses, and substances that may be harmful to the body.

HIV-1 infected children typically respond more poorly to vaccines compared to uninfected, healthy children and so this study hopes to learn whether or not the body will successfully produce enough antibodies (proteins that fight infection) that will prevent or fight the H1N1 flu virus. There is no information yet on the safety or immune response to this vaccine in children infected with HIV.

Read the detailed description

HIV-infected children typically respond poorer to vaccines as compared to normal children. The FDA has currently approved several Influenza A 2009 monovalent vaccines to be used in children and adults. However, little data is available in perinatally infected youth. Therefore, knowledge of the immunogenicity of several of the licensed Influenza A 2009 monovalent vaccines in HIV-infected children and youth is critically important to address the health care needs of this vulnerable population. Efforts are currently underway to evaluate Influenza A 2009 monovalent vaccines in healthy children as well as other populations. This study will assess the immune response following receipt of three Influenza A monovalent vaccines in HIV-1 infected children and youth. Protection of HIV-1 infected children and youth from 2009 H1N1 Influenza A will require knowledge of immunogenicity of these new products in this population. The 2009 (H1N1) Influenza A virus is likely to infect a significant proportion of HIV-1 infected children and youth. Immunogenicity of licensed and commercially available Influenza A 2009 monovalent vaccines must be established in HIV-1 infected children in order to assure that this population is protected. Lack of a protective immune response would support the need for additional measures to protect this high risk population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV-1 Infection and H1N1, run by International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Group at 17 sites in 2 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 13 inclusion and 8 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 2 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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.

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?

The short term immune response following immunization with a licensed Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccine administered as a single dose in perinatally HIV-1 infected children and youth aged >10 to <25 years. (time frame: 8 months). The study lists 2 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 2 Dec 2011.
