About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety Study of A Group A, C Polysaccharide Meningococcal and Type b Haemophilus Influenzal Conjugate Vaccine in Aged 3-5 Months: A Phase 3 Clinical Trial

Haemophilus influenzae is an important pathogen which can cause primary infection and respiratory viral infection in infants and leaded to secondary infections. The infection of haemophilus is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in infants and children. At present, the developed conjugant Hib vaccine is proved to be safe and effective. Because Hib vaccine can prevent meningitis, pneumonia, epiglottis inflammation and other serious infection caused by Hib bacteria, the WHO suggested that Hib vaccine should be included in the infant's normal immune programming.

Since the use of meningitis aureus polysaccharide vaccine, incidence of a disease in recent years is declined and maintain to the level of 0.5 per 1/100 thousand. But meningitis aureus polysaccharide vaccine with a relatively poor immune response in the infants under the age of two, and the remaining 60% with a low antibody level and a short duration.

The immunogenicity and safety of this vaccine has been proved in older children aged 6-23 months and 2-5 years. And in the phase I study which was conducted in February, 2012, the safety profile of this vaccine is proved to be acceptable in infants aged 3-5 months. The phase III study is aimed to further evaluate the safety and the immunization of the vaccine. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of the group A, C polysaccharide meningococcal and type b haemophilus influenzal conjugate vaccine.

What is being measured

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

  1. The seroconversion rate of antibody against group A, C polysaccharide meningitis in infants aged 3-5 months

    the seroconversion rate of antibody against group A, C polysaccharide meningitis in infants aged 3-5 months when measured 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series (three doses, 28 day apart).

    Measured: 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series

  2. The seroconversion rate of antibody against type b haemophilus influenza in infants aged 3-5 months

    Measured: 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. adverse reactions after the first vaccination in infants aged 3-5 months

  3. adverse reactions after the third vaccination in infants aged 3-5 months

    adverse reactions of the investigational vaccines in healthy infants aged 3-5 months for 7 days after the third vaccination

    Measured: 7 days after the third vaccination

  4. GMT of antibody against group A, C polysaccharide meningitis in infants aged 3-5 months

    GMT of antibody against group A, C polysaccharide meningitis in infants aged 3-5 months 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series (three doses, 28 day apart)

    Measured: 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series

  5. GMT of antibody against type b haemophilus Influenza in serum in infants aged 3-5 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing A+C+hib Conjugate Vaccine, A+C Vaccine and Hib vaccine in people with Meningitis and Influenza, run by Jiangsu Province Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 19 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 8 May 2013. 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 China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

The seroconversion rate of antibody against group A, C polysaccharide meningitis in infants aged 3-5 months (time frame: 4 weeks (28±3 days) after the infant series). 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 8 May 2013.
