About this study

Official title: An Open Label Study in Adults With Atopic Dermatitis to Assess Variability in Immune Response to Fluzone® Intradermal Vaccine

A new flu vaccine which is injected into the skin instead of into the muscle has recently been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for vaccination of the general population including patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). This new vaccine has been shown to work as well as the vaccine which is injected into muscle when tested in people without atopic dermatitis. The primary endpoint of the study is to estimate the variance of the log fold change from baseline in HAI antibody titers for non-atopic controls and participants with atopic dermatitis without a history of eczema herpeticum (ADEH-), following administration of a single dose of the seasonal 2011-2012 Fluzone® Intradermal vaccine.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open-label, mechanistic study designed to determine the variance of the antibody response in non-atopic and ADEH- participants receiving a single dose of the 2011-2012 seasonal Fluzone® Intradermal vaccine administered per label.

Twenty non-atopic and 20 ADEH- (mild to severe AD) adults aged 18 to 64 years will be enrolled. Enrollment will be closely monitored to ensure that there is a similar distribution of non-atopic and ADEH- participants by gender, age, and race/ethnicity.

Eligible study participants will provide a pre-vaccination blood sample (Day 0) for assessment of baseline HAI antibody titers, cellular immune response, total IgE, and allergen sensitization, and will then receive a single injection of the 2011-2012 seasonal Fluzone® Intradermal vaccine administered per label. A subset of participants will also provide blood for microarray analysis at Baseline (Day 0) and will return to the clinic 3 and 7 days post-vaccination to provide additional blood for microarray analysis. All participants will return to the study site 28 days post-vaccination for a blood draw for HAI antibody titers and cellular immune response assays.

Study participants will be followed for safety, including serious adverse events (SAEs), throughout the entire duration of the study and will be asked to record solicited AEs on a diary card (Days 0-7).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Fluzone® Intradermal (Sanofi Pasteur Inc.)Drug

    Fluzone® Intradermal trivalent vaccine is a clear-to-slightly opalescent, preservative-free suspension containing formaldehyde-inactivated "split" influenza viruses for intradermal delivery of 0.1 mL via an ultra-fine micro-needle. The vaccine is supplied as a single-dose, in a latex-free, pre-filled microinjection system. The active substance is prepared from influenza viruses propagated in embryonated chicken eggs.

    Fluzone® Intradermal is standardized according to United States Public Health Service (US PHS) requirements and is formulated to contain HA of each of the following three influenza strains recommended for the 2011-2012 influenza season: A/California/07/2009 X-179A (H1N1)-like virus, A/Perth/16/2009 (H3N2)-like virus, and B/Brisbane/60/2008-like virus.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline (Day 0) HAI Antibody Titers

    The variance of the log fold change from baseline in HAI antibody titers for non-atopic controls and ADEH- participants, following administration per label of a single dose of the seasonal 2011-2012 Fluzone® Intradermal vaccine.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0) and Day 28

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change from Baseline (Day 0) Influenza-specific T Cell Populations

    Influenza-specific effector CD4+ and CD8+ T cells pre-vaccination (Day 0) and post-vaccination (Day 28) as measured by flow cytometry for MIP1b, Ki67, CD107a, and CD103 expression.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0) and Day 28

  2. Change from Baseline (Day 0) Influenza-specific Interferon Gamma and/or Granzyme B Producing Cells

    Influenza-specific Interferon gamma and/or granzyme B producing cells measured pre-vaccination (Day 0) and post-vaccination (Day 28) by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Spot (ELISPOT).

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0) and Day 28

  3. Change from Baseline (Day 0) Microarray Analysis

    Gene expression profiles of PBMCs pre-vaccination (Day 0) and post-vaccination (Days 3 and 7) as measured by microarray analysis.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Day 3, and Day 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Fluzone® Intradermal (Sanofi Pasteur Inc.) in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) 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 24 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 1 Mar 2017. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Change from Baseline (Day 0) HAI Antibody Titers (time frame: Baseline (Day 0) and Day 28). 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 NCT01518478, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Mar 2017.
