About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of 3 Adjuvated Reduced Dose Inactivated Polio Vaccines (IPV-Al SSI) and Non-adjuvated Full Dose IPV SSI, Given as Primary Vaccinations to Infants at 6, 10 and 14 Weeks of Age

The background of the present clinical trial is the overall aim of the World Health Organization (WHO) to obtain eradication of polio in the world. As part of this overall plan, inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) against poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, at an affordable price, needs to be available in low resource third world countries. The intention of the present phase II clinical trial is to determine if reduced dose(s) of IPV-Al SSI are safe in the target population and do not decrease the immunogenicity clinically significantly compared to full dose IPV Vaccine SSI. The infants will receive three doses of one of the trial vaccines according to the WHO Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) schedule of 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age.

A total of 824 healthy infants will be included in the trial.

Read the detailed description

The trial is a phase II, dose investigation, parallel and multi-group, observer-blind, randomised, controlled, multicentre and non-inferiority trial.

Three investigational reduced dose adjuvated IPV-Al SSI vaccines and full dose IPV SSI vaccine will be investigated in four parallel groups:

  • 1/3 IPV-Al SSI
  • 1/5 IPV-Al SSI
  • 1/10 IPV-Al SSI
  • IPV Vaccine SSI (comparator)

At Visit 1 (screening and 1st vaccination visit), written informed consent is obtained and the subject's eligibility is assessed according to the pre-specified in-/exclusion criteria, including measurement of axillary temperature. If the subject is included, a pre-vaccination blood sample is taken for polio antibody determinations, and the subject is randomly allocated into one of the four groups to be vaccinated.

The subject is observed for ½ an hour after the injection of the investigational medical product (IMP) and any immediate adverse events observed are to be recorded. A diary, thermometer and ruler are handed out to the parents/guardians so that they can measure daily the injection site reactions and the axillary temperature the first 3 days and record any adverse event until the next visit.

At Visit 2 (2nd vaccination visit), 28-42 days after Visit 1, contraindications are reviewed, the 2nd vaccination is given, the diary is collected and adverse events and concomitant medications are recorded in the eCRF. A new diary is handed out.

At Visit 3 (3rd vaccination and blood sample visit), 28-42 days after Visit 2, a blood sample for immunogenicity assessment is taken, contraindications are reviewed, the 3rd vaccination is given, the diary is collected and adverse events and concomitant medications are recorded in the eCRF. A new diary is handed out.

At Visit 4 (blood sample visit), 28-42 days after Visit 3, a blood sample for immunogenicity assessment is taken, the diary is collected, and adverse events and concomitant medications are recorded in the eCRF. The trial termination form is completed.

What is being measured

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

  1. For each of the 3 poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, for the IPV-Al and IPV Vaccine SSI vaccines to evaluate: Type specific seroconversion rates based on baseline and 4 weeks post 3rd vaccincation

    Measured: Change from baseline to 4 weeks post 3rd vaccincation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Type-specific geometric mean titers (GMTs)

    Measured: 4 weeks post 3rd vaccination for each vaccine

  2. Type-specific seroprotection rates (titers ≥ 1/8)

    Measured: 4 weeks post 3rd vaccination for each vaccine

  3. Type-specific reverse cumulative titer distribution curves based on pre-vaccination and 4 weeks post 3rd vaccination serum titers for each vaccine

    Measured: 4 weeks post 3rd vaccination for each vaccine

  4. Adverse events following the vaccinations for each vaccine

    Measured: From inclusion to 4 weeks post 3rd vaccincation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Primary series of immunisation comprised by 3 vaccinations IPV-Al SSI and IPV Vaccine SSI in people with Poliomyelitis, run by Statens Serum Institut at 1 site in Dominican Republic.

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 12 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 14 Nov 2018. 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 Dominican Republic. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

For each of the 3 poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, for the IPV-Al and IPV Vaccine SSI vaccines to evaluate: Type specific seroconversion rates based on baseline and 4 weeks post 3rd vaccincation (time frame: Change from baseline to 4 weeks post 3rd vaccincation). 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 NCT02347423, 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 14 Nov 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
