About this study
Official title: A Phase 3, Open-label, Multicenter Randomized Trial to Evaluate Humoral Immunogenicity of Various Schedules of Intramuscular Full-Dose and Intradermal Fractional Dose of Inactivated Polio Vaccine in Latin American Infants
The study will assess and compare the immune response to full-dose inactivated polio vaccines (IPV) via intramuscular (IM) administration and of the fractional dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine (f-IPV) via intradermal (ID) administration, in different schedule combinations in the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) primary series.
Read the detailed description
This study prioritizes comparisons involving two-dose regimens recently recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on immunization (SAGE) and Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) in response to global IPV supply shortages 21. Furthermore, the study will provide data on the comparative humoral immunogenicity of various schedules to inform polio immunization policy for the post-eradication era.
The study population will include infants in Dominican Republic and Panama. Absence of wild and circulating vaccine derived polioviruses along with the lack of regular Supplementary Immunization Activities (SIAs) in the Latin America region provide an ideal epidemiologic setting to study polio vaccine immunogenicity.
Infants will receive two or three doses of full-dose IPV IM or f-IPV ID, in two schedules (10, 14 and 36 weeks and 14 and 36 weeks). Immunological and safety assessments will be made after one dose, two doses and three doses.
A total of 773 infants will be enrolled and distributed into 4 groups, according to a randomization scheme. During the study period, infants will be administered other concomitant vaccines according to the national schedules of the participating countries, but the effect, if any, of the concomitant administration on IPV immunogenicity will not be assessed.
Optimum immunogenicity expected from the dose(s) of IPV in the post-eradication era will have to be balanced with the cost and supply constraints of IPV. This study will be critical to determine how many doses of IPV and which schedule are optimal for the post-eradication era after the global cessation of Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) use.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing IPV and f-IPV in people with Poliomyelitis, run by Fidec Corporation at 4 sites in 2 countries.
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 3 inclusion and 7 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 21 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in Panama, Dominican Republic. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 18 Aug 2020). 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 Non-inferiority of 2 Doses f-IPV ID vs 2 Doses IPV IM (time frame: To be assessed 4 weeks after the last dose). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03239496, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 21 Jul 2023.
