Trial summary

Yellow fever is an acute viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes in South America, Central America and Africa. It is more prevalente in males gender and the age above 15 years due to the greater exposure in the wild endemic area of yellow fever. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Study of Immunity Duration of Yellow Fever Vaccine in Military, Participants of "Dose-response Study of Yellow Fever Vaccine 17DD Produced by Bio-Manguinhos / Fiocruz" in 2009

Yellow fever is an acute viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes in South America, Central America and Africa. It is more prevalente in males gender and the age above 15 years due to the greater exposure in the wild endemic area of yellow fever.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a single dose of the yellow fever vaccine is sufficient to maintain protective immunity against yellow fever for a lifetime, therefore a booster dose is not required. This issue is difficult to evaluate because there is no serological correlate of protection against yellow fever and seropositivity is defined with several cut-off points. Although studies indicate that the duration of protection after vaccination is long, many studies have demonstrated a reduction of the antibody titrer over the years. Consequently, there is more concern about people who live in endemic areas. For this reason, Brazil recommends revaccinating once at least until additional studies are performed.

It is important to know the duration of immunity induced by lower doses of YF vaccine. In our knowledge, there is a lack of clinical studies evaluating the immunity duration of the yellow fever vaccine with lower doses. This information is relevant to subsidize the routine recommendation of YF vaccine fractional dose for adults.

This is an observational study in young adult males who received the first dose of the yellow fever vaccine in 2009 when they participated in the "Dose-response study of the yellow fever vaccine 17DD produced by Bio-Manguinhos / Fiocruz.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of seropositivity participants to YF vaccine as assessed by PRNT.

    To evaluate the seropositivity by the means of the neutralizing antibody dosage in the participants of the "Dose-response study of the 17DD yellow fever vaccine produced by Bio-Manguinhos/Fiocruz" realized in 2009

    Measured: 8 years after the 1 st dose of yellow fever vaccine

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Individual repertoire of immunoglobulins profile as assessed by the PEPperPRINT and phenotypic/functional anti-amaryl memory cell analyse.

    To evaluate individual repertoire of immunoglobulins profile directed to amaryl epitopes by the PEPperPRINT (PEPperCHIP® Yellow Fever Virus Proteome Microarrays) Guidelines and to evaluate the phenotypic and funcional profile of anti-yellow memory cell in the participants of the "Dose-response study of the 17DD yellow fever vaccine produced by Bio-Manguinhos/Fiocruz" realized in 2009

    Measured: 8 years after the 1 st dose of yellow fever vaccine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Yellow Fever Vaccine, run by The Immunobiological Technology Institute (Bio-Manguinhos) / Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) at 1 site in Brazil.

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 1 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 9 Nov 2017. 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 Brazil. 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?

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?

Number of seropositivity participants to YF vaccine as assessed by PRNT. (time frame: 8 years after the 1 st dose of yellow fever vaccine). 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 NCT03338231, 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 9 Nov 2017.
