  • Receipt of any vaccine or investigational product within the 30 days prior to enrollment, or planning to receive another vaccine within 28 days after receiving study vaccine.
  • Chemical dependency (e.g. alcoholism or intravenous drug use but not including nicotine or caffeine), based on investigator judgment.
  • Known or suspected acute infectious respiratory illness at the time of vaccination with active symptoms and signs including one or more of the following: rhinorrhea, new cough, pharyngitis, respiratory problems (e.g. wheezing, shortness of breath).
  • Any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose a health risk to the participant or interfere with the evaluation of the vaccine.
  • History of immediate anaphylaxis, encephalopathy within 7 days, or seizure within 3 days of receiving diphtheria, tetanus, or pertussis vaccine.
  • Planned participation in another interventional clinical trial during the present trial period (participation in a related study to evaluate immune responses to this study's vaccination is permitted).

About this study

Official title: Reactogenicity of Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Booster in Adolescents Who Have Received 5 Prior Doses of BIKEN Acellular Pertussis Vaccine in Combination With Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids (TRIPEDIA®) or Who Have Received Primary Vaccination With 3 Doses of Whole-Cell Pertussis Vaccine, Plus at Least 1 Pertussis Booster Vaccination

Post-marketing evaluation of reactions following receipt of recommended adolescent pertussis vaccine among persons with prior vaccination with acellular vs whole-cell pertussis vaccine.

To describe and characterize adverse events occurring after vaccination with REPEVAX® (Tdap-IPV: combination diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis with inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine) or COVAXIS® (Tdap: combination diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis) vaccine among two groups: Group 1 - adolescents 10-14 years of age who participated in study 371-03/01 (and thus received a 5th dose of TRIPEDIA® vaccine) and Group 2 - controls 10-14 years of age who were vaccinated with at least three doses of a whole-cell pertussis vaccine in infancy plus at least one subsequent dose of pertussis vaccine in their 2nd through 7th year of life.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing COVAXIS™: Tetanus, diphtheria, acellular 5-component pertussis, or + inactivated poliovirus vaccine (REPEVAX®) in people with Pertussis and Diphtheria, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 17 sites in Germany.

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 9 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 14 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Germany. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 7 Apr 2011). 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 Participants Reporting a Solicited Local or Systemic Reaction Post-Vaccination With Either REPEVAX® or COVAXIS® Vaccine (time frame: Days 0 to 14 Post-vaccination). 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 NCT00304265, 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 14 Apr 2016.
