PneumoniaPhase 1/2NCT02543892
A Study of a Vaccine for Pneumonia in Adults and Toddlers in Kenya
A Phase 1/2 study testing PATH-wSP in people with Pneumonia, run by PATH at 1 site in Kenya.
Trial summary
This study aimed to determine whether PATH-wSP, a vaccine against a germ that causes pneumonia, is safe and induces immune responses in adults and toddlers. The study vaccine was compared to placebo. First adults received 2 injections of a lower dose of the vaccine or placebo, 28 days apart. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Phase 1-2 Safety and Immunogenicity Study of PATH-wSP in Kenyan Adults and Toddlers
This study aimed to determine whether PATH-wSP, a vaccine against a germ that causes pneumonia, is safe and induces immune responses in adults and toddlers. The study vaccine was compared to placebo. First adults received 2 injections of a lower dose of the vaccine or placebo, 28 days apart. Since the lower dose was considered safe, a higher dose was tested. Once the safety was established in adults the lower and higher dose was tested in toddlers, starting with the lower dose and then the higher dose.
Read the detailed description
- pneumoniae whole cell vaccine (SPWCV) is a vaccine candidate made from whole unencapsulated pneumococcal cells and adsorbed to aluminum hydroxide adjuvant (Alum). After adsorption of the Alum to SPWCV, the vaccine is referred to as PATH-wSP. PATH-wSP has been previously tested in Phase 1/2 studies in healthy US adults (VAC-002), and in healthy Kenyan adults and toddlers (VAC-010) and showed a favorable safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity profile. The SPWCV and Alum used in previous Phase 1/2 trials were supplied separately in a two-vial configuration; the SPWCV was manufactured at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research and the Alum at Instituto Butantan. A single-vial formulation of PATH wSP, an adsorbed suspension of SPWCV and Alum, has now been manufactured by PT Bio Farma, Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and tolerability of this new formulation.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Highest Grade of Reactogenicity Events in the Adult Cohort: Vaccination 1
Solicited adverse events (AEs) were referred to as reactogenicity events (REs). Local REs included pain, induration/swelling, and erythema/redness at the injection site for adults; and pain/tenderness, redness, and induration/swelling for toddlers. Solicited systemic REs included cutaneous rash, headache, axillary fever/temperature, fatigue/malaise, and arthralgia/myalgia. Solicited REs were assessed for all subjects during the 60 minutes post-vaccination, daily for the first week, and at the clinic visit 1 week post-vaccination. Within the first week post-vaccination, fieldworkers visited the subject at home daily to assess and record solicited reactogenicity and determine whether the subject needed to be seen by the principal investigator (PI) for any medical condition or issue. Generally, grade 1 was no interference with activity, grade 2 was some interference with activity, and grade 3 was prevents daily activity. Grade 0 is equivalent to no event.
Measured: 7 days after the first dose (Day 7)
Highest Grade of Reactogenicity Events in the Adult Cohort: Vaccination 2
Solicited adverse events (AEs) were referred to as reactogenicity events (REs). Local REs included pain, induration/swelling, and erythema/redness at the injection site for adults; and pain/tenderness, redness, and induration/swelling for toddlers. Solicited systemic REs included cutaneous rash, headache, axillary fever/temperature, fatigue/malaise, and arthralgia/myalgia. Solicited REs were assessed for all subjects during the 60 minutes post-vaccination, daily for the first week, and at the clinic visit 1 week post-vaccination. Within the first week post-vaccination, fieldworkers visited the subject at home daily to assess and record solicited reactogenicity and determine whether the subject needed to be seen by the principal investigator (PI) for any medical condition or issue. Generally, grade 1 was no interference with activity, grade 2 was some interference with activity, and grade 3 was prevents daily activity.
Measured: 7 days after the second dose (Day 35)
Highest Grade of Reactogenicity Events in the Toddler Cohort: Vaccination 1
Solicited adverse events (AEs) were referred to as reactogenicity events (REs). Local REs included pain, induration/swelling, and erythema/redness at the injection site for adults; and pain/tenderness, redness, and induration/swelling for toddlers. Solicited systemic REs included cutaneous rash, axillary fever/temperature, drowsiness, irritability, and decreased appetite. Solicited REs were assessed for all subjects during the 60 minutes post-vaccination, daily for the first week, and at the clinic visit 1 week post-vaccination. Within the first week post-vaccination, fieldworkers visited the subject at home daily to assess and record solicited reactogenicity and determine whether the subject needed to be seen by the PI for any medical condition or issue. Generally, grade 1 was no interference with activity, grade 2 was some interference with activity, and grade 3 was prevents daily activity. Grade 0 is equivalent to no event.
Measured: 7 days after the first dose (Day 7)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing PATH-wSP in people with Pneumonia, run by PATH at 1 site in Kenya.
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 9 inclusion and 24 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 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 Kenya. 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 combined 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.
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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Nov 2018). 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?
Highest Grade of Reactogenicity Events in the Adult Cohort: Vaccination 1 (time frame: 7 days after the first dose (Day 7)). The study lists 5 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 28 Nov 2018.
