Trial summary

Immunogenicity is reduced in immunocompromised patients. The aim of this prospective randomized study is to evaluate tolerance and immunogenicity of 2 doses versus 3 doses of anti-HAV vaccine in HIV-1 infected patients with CD4 count between 200 and 500 per mm3, co-infected or not with HBV and/or HCV.

About this study

Official title: Study of Immunogenicity of Anti-HAV Immunisation in HIV-1 Infected Patients, Co-infected or Not With HBV and/or HCV. HEP.A.VAC Study.

Immunogenicity is reduced in immunocompromised patients. The aim of this prospective randomized study is to evaluate tolerance and immunogenicity of 2 doses versus 3 doses of anti-HAV vaccine in HIV-1 infected patients with CD4 count between 200 and 500 per mm3, co-infected or not with HBV and/or HCV. The factors influencing vaccine immunogenicity will be evaluate.

Read the detailed description

RECOMMANDATIONS for hepatitis A vaccination is the same for HIV-infected patients than for general population. However, immunogenicity induced with 2 doses of anti-HAV vaccine is lower in HIV-infected patients. The primary objective of the study is to compare the immunogenicity (percentage of patients with anti-HAV antibodies > 20 mUI/ml at month 7) of 2 strategies (2 doses at months 1 and 6, versus 3 doses at months 1, 2 and 6)of anti-HAV vaccine in HIV-1 infected patients co-infected with HBV and/or HCV with CD4 cell count between 200 and 500/mm3. The second objectives are to compare mean anti-HAV antibodies titers obtained with the 2 strategies, the durability of the seroprotection 12 months after the end of vaccination, and the safety. The PARAMATERS than may have an effect on the immune response will be evaluated.

This open, prospective, study have included 99 patients, aged from 18 to 55 years old. Patients were randomized to receive 2 or 3 doses of HAVRIX 1440 UI intramuscularly at week O, 4, and 24 or week 0, and 24. Clinical and biological safety is evaluated after each immunisation and blood samples for serological evaluation taken at week -4, 4, 8, 24 and 28 for immunogenicity and week 72 for long term analysis

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing group1 and group2 in people with HIV Infection, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 2 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 16 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

percentage of patients with anti-HAV antibodies superior 20 mUI/ml 7 months after the first vaccination (time frame: during de study). 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 16 Dec 2011.
