What is being measured

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

  1. Geometric Mean Titers Of Subjects After Each Vaccination Of a Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Monovalent Vaccine, Hemagglutination Inhibition Assay (Day 43)

    Immunogenicity was measured by Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) assay and summarized through the geometric mean titers (GMTs) at baseline (day 1) and three weeks after the second (day 43) vaccination

    Measured: Day 1 and 43

  2. Geometric Mean Ratios In Subjects After Each Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine, HI Assay (Day 43)

    Geometric mean ratio (GMR) of subjects was calculated as the ratio of postvaccination to prevaccination HI GMTs three weeks after second (day 43) vaccination.

    Measured: Day 43

  3. Percentages Of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion After Each Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Day 43)

    Percentage of subjects achieving HI seroconversion in HI titer was measured three weeks after second (day 43) vaccination.

    Seroconversion is defined as postvaccination HI titer> 40 for subjects with baseline (day 1); HI titer <1:10 or a minimum 4-fold increase in titer for subjects with baseline titer >1:10.

    Measured: Day 43

  4. Percentages Of Subjects With an HI Titers ≥1:40 After Each Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Day 43)

    Percentage of subjects who achieved HI titers≥1:40 was measured at baseline (day 1) and three weeks after second (Day 43) vaccination.

    Measured: Day 1 and 43

  5. Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events After Receiving Adjuvanted and Unadjuvanted Formulations of H7N9c Vaccine

    Safety was assessed as the number of subjects who reported any AEs, and at least possibly related AEs are collected from day 1 to day 43 following vaccination with adjuvanted and unadjuvanted formulations of H7N9c vaccine.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 43

  6. Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Serious Adverse Events After Receiving Adjuvanted and Unadjuvanted Formulations of H7N9c Vaccine

    The number of subjects reporting unsolicited adverse events after receiving adjuvanted and unadjuvanted formulations of H7N9c vaccine was reported. Safety was assessed as the number of subjects who reported SAEs, at least possibly related SAEs, new onset of chronic diseases (NOCDs), medically attended AEs, AEs of Special Interest (AESIs), AEs leading to withdrawal from the study were collected from day 1 to day 366 following vaccination with adjuvanted and unadjuvanted formulations of H7N9 vaccine.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 366.

  7. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events After Receiving Adjuvanted and Unadjuvanted Formulations of H7N9c Vaccine

    Safety was assessed as the number of subjects who reported solicited local and systemic adverse events from day 1 to day 7 of vaccination of adjuvanted and unadjuvanted formulations of H7N9c vaccine.

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 7 after each vaccination.

  3. Percentages Of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion After Each Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Day 22)

    Percentage of subjects achieving HI seroconversion in HI titer was measured three weeks after first (day 22) vaccination.

    Seroconversion is defined as postvaccination HI titer> 40 for subjects with baseline (day 1); HI titer <1:10 or a minimum 4-fold increase in titer for subjects with baseline titer >1:10.

    Measured: Day 22

  4. Percentages Of Subjects With an HI Titers≥1:40 After Each Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Day 22)

    Percentage of subjects who achieved HI titers≥1:40 was measured at baseline (day 1) and three weeks after first (Day 22) vaccination.

    Measured: Day 1 and 22.

  5. Geometric Mean Titers at Six Months and One Year After Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine, HI Assay (Persistence)

    The immunogenicity was measured as GMTs in subjects as persistence at six months (day 183) and one year (day 366) after the first vaccination as measured by Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Assay.

    Measured: Day 183 and 366.

  6. Geometric Mean Ratios at Six Months and One Year After the First Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine, HI Assay (Persistence)

    GMR of subjects was calculated as the ratio of postvaccination to prevaccination HI GMTs six months (day 183) and one year (day 366) after the first vaccination.

    Measured: Day 183 and 366

  7. Percentages Of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion at Six Months and One Year After Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Persistence)

    Percentage of subjects with HI seroconversion was measured as HI titer persistence at six months (day 183) and one year (day 366) after the first vaccination.

    Seroconversion is defined as postvaccination HI titer>40 for subjects with baseline (day 1); HI titer <1:10 or a minimum four-fold increase in titer for subjects with baseline titer>1:10.

    Measured: Day 183 and 366

  8. Percentages Of Subjects With an HI Titers ≥1:40 at Six Months and at One Year After the First Vaccination Of A Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Vaccine (Persistence)

    Percentages of subjects who achieved HI titers≥1:40 was measured at six months (day 183) and one year (day 366) after the first vaccination of a cell-culture derived H7N9 vaccine.

    Measured: Day 183 and 366

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing H7N9c low dose with adjuvant, H7N9c medium dose with adjuvant and H7N9c high dose with adjuvant in people with H7N9 Influenza, run by Novartis Vaccines at 6 sites 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 4 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 11 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 May 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?

Geometric Mean Titers Of Subjects After Each Vaccination Of a Cell-Culture Derived H7N9c Monovalent Vaccine, Hemagglutination Inhibition Assay (Day 43) (time frame: Day 1 and 43). The study lists 7 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 11 Jun 2019.
