About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Trial of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) Dengue Virus Serotype-1 Purified Inactivated Vaccine (DENV-1 PIV) in Flavivirus Antibody Naïve Adults

This is a phase 1 study to evaluate the safety of a vaccine (DENV-1 PIV) for the prevention of dengue fever.

Read the detailed description

DENV infections can cause self-limited but incapacitating acute illness lasting four to seven days. The illness is characterized by fever, headache, severe pain in muscles, joints, pain behind the eyes, and a rash. DENV infection can be complicated by the development of hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or shock syndrome (DSS), which is manifested by plasma leakage and a bleeding diathesis or frank hemorrhage. DHF is fatal in at least 0.5% of pediatric cases but rarely in adults. People, particularly children, living in hyper-endemic areas who have antibodies from an earlier dengue infection with one serotype are at increased risk for DHF if subsequently infected by another dengue virus serotype.

Currently, no specific anti-viral therapy exists. Therapy is largely supportive. Mosquito control has failed to prevent dengue transmission; therefore, prevention of dengue through vaccination is an important objective of the World Health Organization (WHO) and many national governments, including the United States.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

  3. Number of subjects who experience serious adverse events (SAEs) during the study period

    Measured: Up to 360 Days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of subjects with a change in geometric mean titer of neutralizing antibody to DENV types 1,2,3, and 4

    Measured: Up to Day 28

  2. Number of subjects with a change in geometric mean titer of neutralizing antibody to DENV types 1,2,3, and 4

    Measured: Up to Day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DENV-1 PIV, 2.5 µg and DENV-1 PIV, 5 µg in people with Dengue Fever, run by U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 22 Apr 2015. 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 United States. 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 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.

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?

Number of subjects with solicited adverse events (AEs) from study day 0 to 90 (time frame: Up to 90 days). The study lists 3 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 22 Apr 2015.
