About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®) Given to Healthy Subjects in Vietnam

The purpose of this study is to describe the immunogenicity and safety of IMOJEV® in adult and pediatric populations in Vietnam and serve a bridging study to compare immunogenicity, reactogenicity, and safety data obtained with IMOJEV® in the Vietnamese population with data from other Asian pediatric populations.

Primary objective:

  • To describe the safety profile of a single dose of IMOJEV®.

Secondary objectives:

  • To evaluate the immune response to JE 28 days after the administration of a single dose of IMOJEV® in healthy Vietnamese subjects aged from 9 months to 60 years.
Read the detailed description

Study participants will be enrolled by age group and will each receive one injection of IMOJEV® on Day 0 given as primary vaccination. They will be assessed for immunogenicity and safety, post-vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Solicited Injection Site Reactions and Systemic Events Following a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®)

    Solicited injection-site: ≤ 23 months age: Tenderness, Erythema, and Swelling. For ≥ 2 years age: Pain, Erythema, and Swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: ≤ 23 months age, Fever (temperature) Vomiting, Crying abnormal, Drowsiness, Appetite loss, Irritability, For ≥ 2 years age, Fever (temperature) Headache, Malaise, and Myalgia.

    Grade 3: Tenderness, Cries when injected limb is moved; Pain, Incapacitating, unable to perform usual activities or Significant; prevents daily activity (≥ 12 years); Erythema and Swelling (≤23 months to 11 years), ≥50 mm or >100 mm (≥ 12 years).

    Grade 3 Fever, > 39.5°C (≤ 23 months) or ≥39.0°C (≥ 2 years); Vomiting, ≥ 6 episodes per 24 hours; Crying abnormal, > 3 hours; Drowsiness, Sleeping most of the time; Appetite loss, Refuses ≥ 3 feeds / meals; Irritability, Inconsolable. Headache, Malaise, and Myalgia, Significant; prevents daily activity.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 14 post-vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants With Japanese Encephalitis Seroprotection Following a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®)

    Neutralizing antibodies were measured using a Japanese encephalitis chimeric virus (JE CV) 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50). Seroprotection was defined as antibody titer levels ≥10 (1/dil).

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 28 post-vaccination

  3. Percentage of Participants With Japanese Encephalitis Seroconversion Following a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®)

    Neutralizing antibodies were measured using a Japanese encephalitis chimeric virus (JE CV) 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50). Seroconversion was defined as participants with a pre-vaccination titer <10 (1/dil) and post-vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dil) or participants with pre vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dil) and a ≥4-fold increase from pre- to post-vaccination.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 28 post-vaccination

  4. Summary of Geometric Mean Titers of Japanese Encephalitis Antibodies Following a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®)

    Neutralizing antibodies were measured using a Japanese encephalitis chimeric virus (JE CV) 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50).

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 28 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis chimeric virus vaccine (IMOJEV®) in people with Japanese Encephalitis, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 1 site in Vietnam.

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 3 inclusion and 17 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 28 Mar 2022. 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 Vietnam. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Nov 2016). 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?

Number of Participants With Solicited Injection Site Reactions and Systemic Events Following a Single Primary Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®) (time frame: Day 0 up to Day 14 post-vaccination). The study lists 4 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 NCT02492165, 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 28 Mar 2022.
