Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 47 months to 15 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Study population: Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) member who received 5 doses of acellular pertussis vaccines between ages 1 month and 84 months at KPNC.

Who may be able to join

  • Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) member who received 5 doses of acellular pertussis vaccines be-tween ages 1 month and 84 months at KPNC.
  • The 5th dose was given between the ages of 47 and 84 months.
  • All 5 DTaP doses received were manufactured by GSK, depending on study objective (otherwise this criterion will not apply).
  • Born in 1999 and later.
  • All individuals meeting above inclusion criteria who tested PCR-positive for pertussis and negative for parapertussis during the study period.
  • All individuals meeting above inclusion criteria who tested PCR-negative for both pertussis and parapertussis during the study period.
  • All individuals from the general KPNC population meeting above inclusion criteria who match a PCR-positive case on sex, age, race or ethnic group, and medical center.
  • KPNC members on the day their matched case under-went the PCR test (anchor date).

Who cannot join

  • Individuals whose PCR test date (or anchor date) is less than 2 weeks after receiving their 5th DTaP dose.
  • Individuals who were not KPNC members for greater than 3 months between their 5th DTaP dose and PCR test date (or anchor date).
  • Individuals who received reduced antigen content pertussis vaccine (Tdap) or any pertussis-containing vaccine after their 5th DTaP dose but before their PCR test date (or anchor date).
  • Individuals will be excluded from serving as a control once they test positive for pertussis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • InfanrixBiological

    Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed Indicated as a 5-dose series in infants and children 6 weeks to 7 years of age.

  • PediarixBiological

    Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Ad-sorbed, Hepatitis B (Recombinant) and Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine Indicated as a 3-dose series in infants born of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-negative mothers. PEDIARIX may be given as early as 6 weeks of age through 6 years of age (prior to the 7th birthday).

  • KinrixBiological

    Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Ad-sorbed and Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine

Study groups in NCT02447978
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PCR-positive pertussis casesCases will be all individuals who tested PCR-positive for pertussis and negative for parapertussis during the study period and who received 5 doses of DTaP vaccines (either manufactured by GSK or any brand, depending on study objective) through 84 months of age before testing PCR-positive.
Receives: Biological: Infanrix; Biological: Pediarix; Biological: Kinrix
PCR-negative pertussis controlsControls will consist of persons who tested PCR-negative for both pertussis and parapertussis and who received 5 DTaP doses (either manufactured by GSK or any brand, depending on study objective) before testing PCR negative.
Receives: Biological: Infanrix; Biological: Pediarix; Biological: Kinrix
KPNC-matched controlsControls will consist of all KPNC members of the same sex, age (year and quarter of birth), race or ethnic group (7 groups; 6 for reported, 1 for imputed), and medical centre as each pertussis case and who were members on the date the case tested PCR-positive (anchor date).
Receives: Biological: Infanrix; Biological: Pediarix; Biological: Kinrix

What is being measured

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

  1. Estimated GSK-only DTaP relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed)

    Estimation done by comparing time since the 5th DTaP dose between PCR-positive cases and PCR-negative controls

    Measured: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (GSK-only) vaccine

  2. Estimated DTaP (any brand) relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed)

    Estimation done by comparing time since the 5th DTaP dose between PCR-positive cases and PCR-negative controls

    Measured: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (any brand) vaccine

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Estimated GSK-only DTaP relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed)

    Estimation derived from comparing PCR-positive cases and matched controls

    Measured: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (GSK-only) vaccine

  2. Estimated DTaP (any brand) relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed)

    Estimation derived from comparing PCR-positive cases and matched controls

    Measured: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (any brand) vaccine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diphtheria and Acellular Pertussis, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

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 8 inclusion and 4 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 2 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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?

Estimated GSK-only DTaP relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed) (time frame: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (GSK-only) vaccine). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02447978, 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 2 Nov 2015.
