About this study

Official title: Long Term Hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Antibody Persistence in Children Vaccinated With 1 Dose and Those Vaccinated With 2 Doses of Havrix in Panama

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the persistence of hepatitis A antibodies, approximately 8 years and 10 years post vaccination with the complete series of Havrix (2 doses) and the partial series completion (1 dose).

Read the detailed description

The study comprises of two independent cross-sectional surveys (Year 8 and Year 10). The first cross-sectional serosurvey will evaluate the long term persistence of immunity approximately 8 years post vaccine administration and the second cross-sectional study will evaluate long term persistence, approximately 10 years post vaccine administration.

  • Blood sample collectionOther

    A blood sample (~5mL) will be collected from all subjects at each cross-sectional survey (Year 8 and Year 10).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects With Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Seropositivity Status at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose

    Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 milli-international unit/milliliter (mIU/mL).

    Measured: At approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

  2. Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Seropositivity Status at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose

    Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

    Measured: At approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose

    Anti-HAV antibody concentrations were measured by ELISA, expressed as GMCs, in mIU/mL. The cut-off of the assay was an anti-HAV antibody concentration equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

    Measured: At approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

  2. Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose

    Anti-HAV antibody concentrations were measured by ELISA, expressed as GMCs, in mIU/mL. The cut-off of the assay was an anti-HAV antibody concentration equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

    Measured: At approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

  3. Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Antibody Concentration ≥ 15 mIU/mL at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose - Exploration of Non-inferiority of the 1-dose Schedule Compared to the 2-dose Schedule of Havrix

    Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

    Measured: At approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose

  4. Number of Subjects With Anti-HAV Antibody Concentrations ≥ 15 mIU/mL at Approximately 10 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose - Exploration of Non-inferiority of the 1-dose Schedule Compared to the 2-dose Schedule of Havrix

    Subjects are defined as being seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is equal to or above (≥) 15 mIU/mL.

    Measured: At approximately 10 years after the last administered vaccine dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sample collection in people with Hepatitis A Vaccine, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 3 sites in Panama.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 19 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Panama. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Sep 2019). 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 Subjects With Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Seropositivity Status at Approximately 8 Years Following Last Administered Havrix Dose (time frame: At approximately 8 years after the last administered vaccine dose). 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 19 Nov 2019.
