About this study

Official title: Phase I Evaluation of the Safety and Immunogenicity of an Investigational Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine (TetraVax-DV) TV005 in Flavivirus-Naïve Adults 50 - 70 Years of Age

This study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a tetravalent dengue vaccine TetraVax-DV TV005 in adults 50 to 70 years of age with no history of previous flavivirus infection.

Read the detailed description

Dengue viruses (DENV) are widespread in most tropical and subtropical regions of the world. There are four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4); each can cause dengue infection. Infection with dengue viruses can range from mild illness to life-threatening disease. TetraVax-DV TV005 (also referred to as TV005) is a live attenuated recombinant tetravalent dengue virus vaccine developed to protect against all four dengue virus serotypes. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of TV005 in adults 50 to 70 years of age with no history of previous flavivirus infection.

Participants will be randomly assigned to receive a subcutaneous injection of either TV005 or placebo at study entry (Day 0). After receiving the injection, participants will record their temperature 3 times a day through Day 16. Additional study visits will occur on Days 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 21, 28, 56, 90, and 180. Visits will include a physical examination and blood collection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TetraVax-DV TV005 in people with Dengue, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 1 site in United States.

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 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 2 Apr 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 United States. 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 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?

Frequency of TV005-related adverse events (AEs) (time frame: Measured through Day 180). 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 2 Apr 2018.
