About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center, Active-controlled, Parallel-designed, Phase III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of Inactivated Hepatitis A Vaccine in Korean Healthy Children Aged 12~23 Months

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety after one primary dose and one additional dose of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in Korean healthy children aged 12-23 months.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety after one primary dose and one additional dose (administered twice in total at an interval of 6 months) of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in Korean healthy children aged 12-23 months.

For this, a two-group comparison study will be conducted using a previously approved inactivated hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix Inj., manufactured by GSK) as the control vaccine to prove that the immunogenicity of the test vaccine treatment group is not inferior to the control vaccine treatment group and to statistically confirm that there is no difference in safety.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Inactivated hepatitis A vaccine and Havrix Inj in people with Hepatitis A Vaccine, run by Boryung Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd at 10 sites in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 11 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 7 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 10 sites in South Korea. 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?

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?

Seroconversion rate (time frame: 1 month after the second administration of the investigational product). 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 7 Jul 2023.
