About this study

Official title: A Phase III Multicenter, Observer-Blinded, Randomized, Active Controlled, Immune Non-inferiority and Safety Study of Vi-DT Vaccine Compared to Typbar TCV® in Healthy 6 Months-45 Years Aged Nepalese Participants.

This is a Multicenter, observer-blinded, randomized, Active controlled, Phase 3 study in healthy 6 months to 45 years aged Nepalese at the time of the first vaccine dose.

The study objectives are:

  1. Demonstrate non-inferiority of Vi-DT compared to Typbar TCV® as measured by seroconversion rates of anti-Vi IgG ELISA antibody titers, 4 weeks after single dose (pooled immunogenicity of three lots of Vi-DT)

II. Demonstrate the equivalence of immunogenicity as measured by anti-Vi IgG GMT of three lots of Vi-DT vaccine 4 weeks after single dose.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be stratified according to age. The study procedure is as follows:

Visit 1 (day-1 to -7): Screen participants by medical/medications history, physical examination, Vital signs, Urine pregnancy test (UPT)

Visit 2 (day 0): Enroll, randomize and administer vaccine to eligible participants and assess participant safety by physical examination and Vital signs, Collect blood for immunogenicity assessments.

Visit 3 (day 7): Check solicited adverse reaction 7 days post vaccination and Assess participant safety by physical examination and Vital signs

Visit 4 (day 28): Assess participant safety by physical examination and Vital signs, Collect blood for immunogenicity assessments

Visit 5 (day 84): Assess participant safety by physical examination and Vital signs

Visit 6 (day 168): Assess participant safety by physical examination and Vital signs, Collect blood for immunogenicity assessments, and fill in study completion form in the absence of any safety concern.

This study is observer-blind: vaccine administrator and vaccine safety evaluator will be two distinct persons to avoid bias of safety assessment. Trial staff other than the vaccine administrator.

For retention: After vaccination, field health worker/designee will contact participant every day till Day 7 by physical visit or by phone call. Follow-up reminder calls will be done very frequently as per discretion of study staff until 24 weeks for all participant to assess participant safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. Seroconversion rate1

    Measured: 4 weeks and 24 weeks after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)/ Typbar TCV®

  2. Seroconversion rate 2

    Defined as a 4-fold increase of serum anti-Vi IgG antibody titer

    Measured: 24 weeks (168 days) after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)/ Typbar TCV® compared to baseline (D0).

  3. Seroconversion rate 3

    Definded as a Seroconversion rates of anti-Vi IgG ELISA antibody titers after vaccination of three lots of Vi-DT.

    Measured: 4 weeks (28 days) after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)

  4. Seroconversion rate 4

    Definded as a Seroconversion rates of anti-Vi IgG ELISA antibody titers at 4 weeks (28 days) after vaccination of three lots of Vi-DT in each age strata

    Measured: 4 weeks (28 days) after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)

  5. Seroconversion rate 5

    Definded as IgG ELISA antibody titers for Measles (M), and Rubella (R) following single dose of MR a vaccine at baseline D0 and 4 weeks

    Measured: 4 weeks (28 days) after vaccination of MR compared to baseline (D0)

  6. Safety endpoints for solicited adverse events (reactogenicity)

    Proportion of participants with local and systemic solicited adverse events

    Measured: 7days after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)/ Typbar TCV®

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Test Vaccine Vi-DT Typhoid conjugate in people with Typhoid, run by International Vaccine Institute at 4 sites in Nepal.

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 18 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2020. 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 Nepal. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 rate1 (time frame: 4 weeks (28 days) after vaccination of Vi-DT(pooled)/ Typbar TCV® compared to baseline (D0)). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03933098, 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 22 Apr 2020.
