About this study
Official title: Phase III, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Live Attenuated Bovine-Human Rotavirus Reassortant Pentavalent Vaccine (BRV-PV) Against Severe Rotavirus Gastroenteritis in Healthy Indian Infants
This is a Phase 3 multicentre, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study to determine the effectiveness of the rotavirus vaccine.
Read the detailed description
The hypothesis is that a three dose series of BRV-PV administered orally to healthy Indian infants, with the initial dose given at 6-8 weeks of age and followed by vaccinations at monthly intervals, will significantly reduce the incidence of severe rotavirus gastroenteritis (SRVGE). Duration of follow-up is until aged 2 years of each enrolled child. The study is powered to detect vaccine efficacy significantly greater than 10% (95% confidence interval lower bound > 10%) if the true vaccine efficacy is 50% or higher.

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 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 10 Sep 2018. 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
occurrence of Severe Rotavirus Gastroenteritis (time frame: Up to 2 years of age of participants). 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 NCT02133690, 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 10 Sep 2018.
