About this study

Official title: A PHASE 3 STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND IMMUNOGENICITY OF RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS (RSV) PREFUSION F SUBUNIT VACCINE IN OLDER ADULTS IN KOREA

The goal of this clinical trial is to quantify the immune response in older Korean adults after a RSVpreF vaccination. It will also learn about the safety and tolerability of RSVpreF vaccination. The main questions it aims to answer are:

What local reactions and systemic events do participants have after a RSVpreF vaccination? What medical problems do participants have after a RSVpreF vaccination? Researchers will compare RSVpreF to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no RSVpreF) to see if RSVpreF is safe and well tolerated. It will also examine the change in antibody levels (immune responses) before and after vaccination.

Participants will:

Receive the RSVpreF vaccination or a placebo injection once at Visit 1. Visit the clinic a month later for a checkup and tests. Receive a phone call 1 week after vaccination, and 2 months after vaccination, for health checks.

Keep a diary of their symptoms for 7 days after vaccination.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial to describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of bivalent RSVpreF in adults 60 years of age and older in Korea.

The study duration is approximately 2 months. 4 study visits are required and are comprised of 2 scheduled clinic visits and 2 scheduled telephone calls.

Approximately 360 study-eligible participants will be randomized to receive either the 120-µg dose of RSVpreF or placebo in a 2:1 ratio.

After screening and confirmation of eligibility, a prevaccination blood sample will be collected for immunogenicity assessments and a single dose of study intervention (RSVpreF or placebo) will be administered.

Participants will report daily reactogenicity data using an electronic device for 7-days or until resolution.

Participants will return approximately 1 month later for a follow-up blood draw for immunogenicity assessments and collection of safety information.

A telephone follow-up visit will be conducted approximately 1 week after vaccination to review reactogenicity and approximately 2 months after vaccination to collect safety information.

For all participants, adverse events (AEs) will be collected from informed consent through 1 month following study intervention administration. Serious adverse events (SAEs) newly diagnosed chronic medical conditions (NDCMCs), and adverse events of special interest (AESIs) will be collected from informed consent throughout study participation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 7 Days After Vaccination

    Local reactions included redness, swelling and pain at injection site. Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit=0.5 centimeter (cm). Redness and swelling were graded as mild: > 2.0 cm to 5.0 cm, moderate: > 5.0 cm to 10.0 cm, severe: >10.0 cm. Pain at injection site was graded as mild: did not interfere with activity, moderate: interfered with activity, severe: prevented daily activity. Any local reaction: any redness, any swelling, or pain at the injection site of at least mild severity. Exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants With Systemic Events Within 7 Days After Vaccination

    Systemic events included fever, fatigue, headache, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, muscle pain and joint pain. Fever defined as oral temperature >=38.0 degrees Celsius (deg C) and categorized as mild: >=38.0 to 38.4 deg C, moderate: >38.4 to 38.9 deg C, severe: >38.9 to 40.0 deg C, and Grade 4: >40.0 deg C. Vomiting categorized as mild: 1-2 times in 24 hours (h); moderate: >2 times in 24h; severe: required intravenous (IV) hydration. Diarrhea categorized as mild: 2-3 loose stools in 24h; moderate: 4-5 loose stools in 24h; severe: 6 or more loose stools in 24h. Headache, fatigue, nausea, muscle pain and joint pain were categorized as mild: didn't interfere with activity; moderate: some interference with activity; severe: prevented daily routine activity. Exact 2-sided 95% CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination

  3. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) From Vaccination Through 1 Month After Vaccination

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. Exact 2-sided 95% CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method. Only AEs collected by non-systematic assessment (i.e. excluding local reactions and systemic events) were reported in this outcome measure.

    Measured: From vaccination on Day 1 up to 1 month after vaccination

  4. Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) From Vaccination Throughout the Study

    An SAE was defined as an AE that, at any dose met one of the following criteria: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; was a congenital anomaly/birth defect; was a suspected transmission via a Pfizer product of an infectious agent, pathogenic or nonpathogenic; other significant medical events as judged by investigator. Exact 2-sided 95% CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From vaccination on Day 1 up to 2 months after vaccination

  5. Percentage of Participants With Newly Diagnosed Chronic Medical Conditions (NDCMCs) From Vaccination Throughout the Study

    A NDCMC was defined as a disease or medical condition that was not identified prior to study start and was expected to be persistent or otherwise long-lasting in its effects. Newly diagnosed chronic medical condition did not include illnesses considered to be temporary conditions. Exact 2-sided 95% CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

    Measured: From vaccination on Day 1 up to 2 months after vaccination

  6. Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of Neutralizing Titers (NTs) for RSV A and RSV B Before Vaccination

    GMTs and the corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of the titers and the corresponding CIs (based on the Student t distribution). Assay results below the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) were set to 0.5*LLOQ for analysis.

    Measured: Before Vaccination

  7. Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of Neutralizing Titers (NTs) for RSV A and RSV B at 1 Month After Vaccination

    GMTs and the corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of the titers and the corresponding CIs (based on the Student t distribution). Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ for analysis.

    Measured: 1 month after vaccination

  8. Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) of Neutralizing Titers (NTs) for RSV A and RSV B From Before Vaccination to 1 Month After Vaccination

    Fold rises was defined as ratios of the results after vaccination to the results before vaccination. GMFRs and 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of fold rises and the corresponding CIs (based on the Student t distribution).

    Measured: From before vaccination to 1 month after vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Seroresponse Rates of Neutralizing Titers (NTs) for RSV A and RSV B at 1 Month After Vaccination

    Seroresponse rate was defined as the percentage of participants with a postvaccination NT >=4 times the LLOQ if the baseline titer (before vaccination) was below the LLOQ; or a >=4-fold rise from baseline if the baseline titer was>=LLOQ. 95% CI was based on Clopper-Pearson method.

    Measured: 1 month after vaccination
