Study groups in NCT01627340
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Diabetes GroupExperimentalSubjects diagnosed with type 2 diabetes within the five year period before study start who received 3 doses of Engerix™-B vaccine (HBV) at 0, 1 and 6 months. The vaccine was administered intramuscularly (IM) into the deltoid region of the non-dominant arm.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Seroprotected for Anti- Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (Anti-HBs) Antibodies

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with an anti-HBs antibody concentration greater than or equal to (≥) 10 milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL).

    Measured: At one month after the third dose of primary vaccination (Month 7)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Anti-HBs Antibody Concentration

    Concentrations were given as geometric mean concentration (GMC) and expressed as mIU/mL

    Measured: At one month after the third dose of primary vaccination (Month 7)

  2. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Solicited Local Symptoms

    Solicited local symptoms assessed were pain, redness and swelling. Any was defined as occurrence of the specified solicited local symptom regardless of its intensity grade.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period

  3. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Solicited General Symptoms

    Solicited general symptoms assessed were fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms, headache and fever. Any was defined as any solicited general symptom reported irrespective of intensity and relationship to vaccination. Any fever = oral temperature greater than or equal to (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period

  4. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)

    An unsolicited AE was defined as an untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as occurrence of any unsolicited symptom regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Measured: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) post-vaccination period

  5. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    A serious adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: resulted in death, was life threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, resulted in disability/incapacity or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject. Any was defined as occurrence of any symptom regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Measured: During the entire study period (Month 0 - Month 7)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Engerix™-B vaccine in people with Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 22 sites in 4 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 13 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 31 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Jan 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Seroprotected for Anti- Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (Anti-HBs) Antibodies (time frame: At one month after the third dose of primary vaccination (Month 7)). 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 NCT01627340, 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 31 Jul 2018.
