About this study

Official title: A Randomized Double-Blind Parallel-Group Comparative Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of a Single Subcutaneous Injection of TAK-850 in Comparison With Influenza HA Vaccine in Healthy Adult Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of TAK-850 administered subcutaneously as a single dose versus influenza HA vaccination in an exploratory manner.

Read the detailed description

This study is a phase 2, single dose study of TAK-850 (cell-culture derived TIV) administered subcutaneously in healthy Japanese adults, designed as a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, comparative study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety compared to an egg-derived TIV.

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-850. TAK-850 was tested in healthy volunteers. This study looked at immunogenicity and safety of TAK-850 (cell-derived) compared to an egg-derived influenza vaccine.

The study enrolled 400 patients. Participants were randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the two groups-which will remain undisclosed to the patient and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • TAK-850
  • Influenza HA vaccine All participants received one injection. This single center trial was conducted in Japan. The overall time to participate in this study was 22 days. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic, including a final visit 21 days after the vaccination for a follow-up assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TAK-850 and Influenza HA vaccine in people with Influenza Infection, run by Takeda.

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 6 inclusion and 23 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 29 Dec 2016. 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Dec 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?

Seroconversion Rate of Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titer (Egg-Derived Antigen) (time frame: Baseline and Day 22). 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?
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 29 Dec 2016.
