About this study
Official title: A Phase III, Multiple-center, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Immunogenicity, and Safety of an Adjuvanted, Inactivated Enterovirus 71 (EV71) Vaccine in Healthy Infants and Children
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the EV71vaccine efficacy, immune response and safety profiles after two injections of the cell culture-based inactivated EV71 vaccine with adjuvant Al(OH)3 administrated in pediatric population aged 2 months to 6 years old.
Read the detailed description
The clinical trial designed in this Study is a placebo-controlled, double-blinded Phase III and is aimed to evaluate the vaccine efficacy, safety, immunogenicity and immune persistence of cell culture-based inactivated EV71 vaccine in children age of 2 months to <6 years old. Two doses of Alum-adjuvanted 1.0 μg per dose of EV71 vaccine candidate will be administrated to subjects. The efficacy will be evaluated within a two year period after receiving 2-regimen vaccination by comparing the EV71-associated disease rates between the vaccine and placebo groups. Whereas, the immunogenicity will be assessed on Day 56 and Day 196, and the immune persistence will be evaluated on Day 392. Safety will be followed up to Day 392.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing EV71 vaccine in people with Enterovirus Infections, run by Enimmune Corporation at 9 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 4 inclusion and 16 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 11 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 9 sites in Taiwan, Vietnam. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 incidence rate of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease caused by EV71 after the second vaccination. (time frame: From 28 days after the second vaccination to two year). 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 NCT05099029, 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 11 Sep 2026.
