About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib Single Center, Randomized, Blinding, Parallel-controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Recombinant Hepatitis E Vaccine in Healthy Adults Aged 16 to 65 Years Old in China

Hepatitis E is characteristic by sporadic and local epidemic around the world, and mainly infects adults aged 15 to 40 years old, resulting in the infection rate ranged from 1% to 15%. The investigational hepatitis E vaccine is a recombinant aluminium-adjuvant hepatitis E vaccine.

This is a single center, randomized, blinding, parallel-controlled phase Ib clinical trial. This study will determine the safety and immunogenicity of the investigational recombinant hepatitis E vaccine in healthy adults between 16 and 65 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of adverse reactions after vaccination

    Occurrence of adverse reactions within 7 days after each vaccination with the Recombinant Hepatitis E vaccine.

    Measured: within 7 days after each vaccination

  2. The geometric mean concentration of antibody against Hepatitis E responses to the Hepatitis E vaccine

    Antibody against Hepatitis E responses to the Hepatitis E vaccine at 7 months after the first vaccination

    Measured: 7 months after the first vaccination

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Occurrence of adverse events after each vaccination

    Occurrence of adverse events within 28 days after each vaccination with the Hepatitis E vaccine.

    Measured: within 28 days after each vaccination

  2. Occurrence of serious adverse events after the vaccination.

    Occurrence of serious adverse events within 12 months after the first vaccination with the Hepatitis E vaccine.

    Measured: within 12 months after the first vaccination

  3. The positive rates of antibody against Hepatitis E responses to the Hepatitis E vaccine.

    The positive rates of antibody against Hepatitis E responses to the Hepatitis E vaccine at 7 months after the first vaccination.

    Measured: 7 months after the first vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 30μg/0.5ml Hepatitis E vaccine and 30μg/0.5ml Recombinant Hepatitis E vaccine in people with Hepatitis E, run by Jiangsu Province Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at 1 site in China.

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 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 1 Sep 2016. 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 China. 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 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.

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?

Occurrence of adverse reactions after vaccination (time frame: within 7 days after each vaccination). 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 1 Sep 2016.
