About this study

Japanese encephalitis (JE) live attenuated vaccine SA14-14-2 has been in use for more more than 20 years in Asia. JE vaccine SA14-14-2 is licensed in India and has been widely used since 2006. JE vaccines give protection by generating a neutralizing antibody response, but both naturally exposed persons and patients with JE also have T cell responses. Whether JE vaccine SA14-14-2 elicits T cell responses is unknown. This study tests the hypothesis that T cell responses are generated in response to JE SA14-14-2 vaccination. The aim of this study is to characterize T cell responses to JE vaccine SA14-14-2 in healthy people, and to investigate differences in T cell responses between natural exposure, vaccination and disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of T Lymphocyte Responses to Live Attenuated JE SA-14-14-2 Vaccine at Week 2.

    Interferon gamma (IFNγ) spot forming cells (SFC)/million peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) at week 2 (peak response)

    Measured: Week 1, week 2, week 4, week 8, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Neutralizing Antibody Titres to Live Attenuated JE SA-14-14-2 Vaccine at Week 4 Post Vaccination.

    Neutralizing antibody titres (measured by 50% Plaque reduction neutralisation titre (PRNT50)) at 4 weeks post vaccination

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Number of Participants Reporting Adverse Events (Graded in Severity 1-4).

    Measured: one month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis vaccine SA14-14-2 in people with Japanese Encephalitis and Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine, run by Indian Institute of Science at 2 sites in India.

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 16 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 26 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in India. 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 26 Apr 2019). 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?

Change of T Lymphocyte Responses to Live Attenuated JE SA-14-14-2 Vaccine at Week 2. (time frame: Week 1, week 2, week 4, week 8, 6 months). 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 NCT01656200, 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 26 Apr 2019.
