About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomized, Bridging Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Consistency, Immunogenicity and Safety of Live Attenuated Varicella Vaccines for Children

The purpose of this study is to evaluate consistency, immunogenicity and safety of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at commercialized scale in aged 1-3 years children.

Read the detailed description

The study is a single-center, double-blind, randomized, bridging clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the consistency between each two lots of live attenuated varicella vaccines, to evaluate the non-inferiority of the immunogenicity of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at commercialized scale compared to trial-scale, and to evaluate the safety of live attenuated varicella vaccines. 1197 healthy Chinese children aged 1 to 3 years old were randomly assigned into four groups in the ratio 2:2:2:1. Children in the first three groups were administered with one dose of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at commercialized scale, and children in the last group were administered with one dose of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at trial-scale .

What is being measured

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

  1. The post-immune geometric mean titer (GMT) of susceptible subjects in each group.

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible. The GMT were measured using the method of Fluorescent Antibody to Membrane Antigen (FAMA).

    Measured: 30 days

  2. The overall seroconversion rates (SCRs) of each group.

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer< 1:4 and post-immune antibody titer≥ 1:4, or those whose pre-immune antibody titer≥1:4 and the increase of post-immune antibody titer≥4 folds are considered seroconverted.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The seroconversion rates (SCRs) of susceptible subjects in each group

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. The geometric mean increase (GMI) of susceptible subjects in each group

    Increase of post-immune GMT compared with pre-immune GMT.Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. The overall post-immune GMT of each group

    The GMT of all the subjects in each group.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. The overall GMI of each group

    The GMI of all the subjects in each group.

    Measured: 30 days

  5. The incidences of adverse events (AEs) of each group

    AEs occurred within 30 days after injection will be collected.

    Measured: 30 days

  6. The incidences of serious adverse events (SAEs) of each group

    SAEs occurred within 30 days after injection will be collected.

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Vaccine manufactured at commercialized scale and Vaccine manufactured at trial-scale in people with Varicella, run by Sinovac (Dalian) Vaccine Technology Co., Ltd..

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 10 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 13 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

The post-immune geometric mean titer (GMT) of susceptible subjects in each group. (time frame: 30 days). 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 13 Jun 2018.
