About this study

Official title: Large Scale Safety Study of a DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T Combined Vaccine, in Comparison to Tritanrix-Hep B/Hib™ and OPV Administered at 2, 4, and 6 Months of Age in Latin American Infants

To demonstrate that DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T combined vaccine does not induce a higher incidence rate of high fever than Tritanrix-HepB/Hib™ and Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) after any of the three vaccinations at 2, 4, and 6 months of age for each subject.

To evaluate the overall safety in terms of:

Any solicited adverse reactions in the first 7 days after each injection, Any adverse events and reactions in the first 30 days after each injection, Any serious adverse events during the trial.

Immunogenicity:

To document the immune response to Hepatitis B antigen of the three batches of the investigational DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T vaccine.

Being tested
DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T, Tritanrix-HepB/Hib
Keywords
Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Recombinant Hepatitis B, Poliomyelitis, Haemophilus influenzae type b, Tetanus protein
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With High Fever Observed After Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or Tritanrix Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo or Tritanrix-Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo Injection.

    High fever was defined as rectal temperature equivalent to ≥ 39.6ºC.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-injection

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Geometric Mean Titers of Anti Hepatitis B Antibodies Following Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T Vaccine + Placebo or Tritanrix-Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo

    Anti-hepatitis B (Hep B) antibodies were measured by automated enhanced chemiluminescence assay.

    Measured: Day 30 post-dose 3

  2. Percentage of Participants Reaching Seroprotection Threshold Following Vaccination With Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T Vaccine + Placebo or Tritanrix-Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo

    Anti hepatitis B (Hep B) antibodies were measured by automated enhanced chemiluminescence assay.

    Two Seroprotection thresholds were defined: a titer ≥ 10 mIU/mL and ≥ 100 mIU/mL, respectively.

    Measured: Day 30 post-dose 3

  3. Number of Participants Reporting at Least One Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Each Vaccination

    Solicited Injection Site Reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling. Solicited Systemic Reactions: Pyrexia (Temperature), Vomiting, Crying, Somnolence, Anorexia, Irritability.

    Severe solicited reactions were defined as follows: Pain, cries when injected limb is moved or the movement of the injected limb is reduced; Erythema and Swelling, ≥5 cm; Fever ≥39.6 ºC; Vomiting, ≥6 episodes per 24 hours or requiring parenteral hydration; Crying, >3 hours; Somnolence, sleeping most of the time or difficulty to wake up; Anorexia, refuses ≥3 feeds or refuses most feeds; Irritability, inconsolable.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 Post-injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T and Tritanrix-HepB/Hib in people with Diphtheria and Tetanus, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2014. 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 Mexico, Peru. 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 19 Nov 2012). 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 With High Fever Observed After Either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP~T or Tritanrix Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo or Tritanrix-Hep B/Hib™ + Placebo Injection. (time frame: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-injection). 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 NCT00313911, 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 21 Apr 2014.
