What is being measured

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

  1. Safety index - incidence of adverse events

    Incidence of adverse events after vaccination

    Measured: 0- 30 minutes/Day 0 to 7 days/Day 0 to 28 days after vaccination

  2. Immunogenicity index - Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC)

    The GMC of anti-DT, TT, PT, PRN, FHA antibodies 30 days after vaccination

    Measured: Day 30 after vaccination

  3. Immunogenicity index - Seropositive Rate

    The seropositve rate of anti-DT, TT, PT, PRN, FHA antibodies 30 days after vaccination

    Measured: Day 30 after vaccination

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Safety index - incidence of serious adverse events

    Incidence of serious adverse events after vaccination

    Measured: From vaccination to 12 months after vaccination

  2. Immunogenicity index - Seroconversion Rate

    The seroconversion rate of anti-DT, TT, PT, PRN, FHA antibodies 30 days after vaccination

    Measured: Between baseline and Day 30 after vaccination

  3. Immunogenicity index - Geometric mean fold increases (GMFI)

    The GMFI of anti-DT, TT, PT, PRN, FHA antibodies 30 days after vaccination

    Measured: Between baseline and Day 30 after vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing low-dose Tetanus, Diphtheria and Acellular Component Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed (Reduced Antigens Content), high-dose Tetanus, Diphtheria and Acellular Component Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed (Reduced Antigens Content) and Tetanus, Diphtheria and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine in people with Tetanus, Diphtheria and Acellular Pertussis Vaccination and Tetanus, run by Institute of Medical Biology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 15 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jingsi Yang (0871-68334551 ext. +86, yjs@imbcams.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety index - incidence of adverse events (time frame: 0- 30 minutes/Day 0 to 7 days/Day 0 to 28 days after vaccination). The study lists 3 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 18 Feb 2026.
