What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphtheria (Anti-D) and Tetanus (Anti-T)

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with anti-diphteria (anti-D) and anti-tetanus (anti-T) antibody concentrations greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off value of 0.1 international units/milliliter (IU//mL).

    Measured: One month (Month 5) post-primary vaccination course

  2. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Poliovirus (Anti-polio) Types 1, 2 and 3

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with anti-poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3 (Anti-Polio 1, 2 and 3) antibody titers greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off value of 8.

    Measured: One month (Month 5) post-primary vaccination course

  3. Number of Subjects With a Vaccine Response for Anti-pertussis Toxoid (Anti-PT), Anti-pertactin (Anti-PRN) and Anti-filamentous Haemagglutinin (Anti-FHA)

    Vaccine response was defined as: - for initially seronegative subjects, antibody concentrations ≥ 5 EL.U/mL one month after third vaccine dose; - for initially seropositive subjects, at least maintenance of pre-vaccination antibody concentrations one month after third vaccine dose.

    Measured: One month (Month 5) post-primary vaccination course

  4. Number of Subjects With Vaccine Response to Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Pertactin (PRN) and Filamentous Haemagglutinin (FHA) Antigens

    Vaccine response to pertussis toxoid (PT), pertactin (PRN) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA) was defined as the appearance of antibodies in subjects who were initially (i.e. before vaccination) seronegative (i.e. with concentrations < 5 EL.U/mL), or at least as the maintenance of pre-vaccination antibody concentrations in subjects who were initially seropositive (i.e. with concentrations ≥ 5 EL.U/mL value).

    Measured: One month (Month 5) post-primary vaccination course

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphtheria (Anti-D) and Tetanus (Anti-T)

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with anti-diphteria (anti-D) and anti-tetanus (anti-T) antibody concentrations greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off value of 1 international units/milliliter (IU//mL).

    Measured: Before (Pre) and one month after (Post) the primary vaccination course

  2. Concentration of Antibodies Against Diphteria (Anti-D) and Tetanus (Anti-T)

    Concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in international units per millilitre (mIU/mL).

    Measured: Before (Pre) and one month after (Post) the primary vaccination course

  3. Titers for Poliovirus Type 1, 2 and 3 Antibodies

    Titers for anti-polio 1, 2 and 3 are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The reference seropositivity cut-off value was greater than or equal to (≥) 8.

    Measured: Before (Pre) and one month after (Post) the primary vaccination course

  4. Concentrations of Antibodies Against Pertussis Toxoid (Anti-PT), Pertactin (Anti-PRN) and Filamentous Haemagglutinin (Anti-FHA)

    Concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in ELISA units per millilitre (EL.U/mL).

    Measured: Before (Pre) and one month after (Post) the primary vaccination course

  5. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = crying when limb was moved/spontaneously painful. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 20 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period, across doses

  6. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were drowsiness, fever [defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)], irritability and loss of appetite. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 drowsiness = drowsiness that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.0 °C. Grade 3 irritability = crying that could not be comforted/ prevented normal activity. Grade 3 Loss of appetite = not eating at all. Related = symptom symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period, across doses

  7. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)

    An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Measured: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) post-vaccination period

  8. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.

    Measured: During the entire study period (from Month 0 up to Month 5)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing DTPa-IPV, DTPa and IMOVAX Polio® in people with Tetanus and Acellular Pertussis, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 9 sites in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 17 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 29 Oct 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphtheria (Anti-D) and Tetanus (Anti-T) (time frame: One month (Month 5) post-primary vaccination course). The study lists 4 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 29 Oct 2018.
