What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphteria (D) and Tetanus (T) Toxoid Antigens

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations equal to or above (≥) 0.1 International Units per milliliter (IU/mL), respectively.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  2. Number of Subjects With Anti-T Antibody Concentrations ≥ the Assay Cut-off Value

    The assay cut-off value was ≥ 1.0 IU/mL, as assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  3. Antibody Concentrations Against Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) and Pertactin (PRN) Antigens

    Anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-PRN antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in ELISA units per milliliter (EL.U/mL).

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  4. Number of Subjects With Serum Haemagglutinin Inhibition (HI) Titers Against 3 Strains of Influenza

    The antibody titer cut-off value for the 3 influenza strains assessed (H1N1, H3N2 and B) was ≥ 1:40.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Fluarix® vaccination

  5. Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against Influenza Antigens H1N1, H3N2, and B

    Seroconversion for HI antibodies is defined as: For initially seronegative subjects: post-vaccination antibody titer ≥ 1:40 at Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination; For initially seropositive subjects: antibody titer at Month 1≥ 4 fold the pre-vaccination antibody titer.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Fluarix® vaccination

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Number of Seropositive Subjects With Anti-D Antibody Concentrations Above the Cut-off Value

    A seropositive subject was a subject whose antibody concentration was greater than or equal (≥) to the cut-off value of 1.0 IU/mL.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  2. Antibody Concentrations for Diphteria Toxoid (D) and Tetanus Toxoid (T)

    Anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in International Units per milliliter (IU/mL).

    Measured: At Day 0 and Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  3. Antibody Concentrations for Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) and Pertactin (PRN)

    Anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-PRN antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in ELISA units per milliliter (EL.U/mL).

    Measured: At Day 0 and Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  4. Number of Subjects With Booster Response Against Diphteria Toxoid (D) and Tetanus Toxoid (T) Antigens

    Booster responses for anti-D and anti-T antibodies are defined as: For initially seronegative subjects [pre-vaccination concentration below (<) cut-off 0.1 IU/mL]: antibody concentrations at least four times the assay cut-off (post-vaccination concentration ≥ 0.4 IU/mL), one month after vaccination with Boostrix®; For initially seropositive subjects (pre-vaccination concentration ≥ 0.1 IU/mL): an increase in antibody concentrations of at least four times the pre-vaccination concentration, one month after vaccination with Boostrix®.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  5. Number of Subjects With Booster Response Against Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) and Pertactin (PRN) Antigens

    Booster responses for anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-PRN are defined as: For initially seronegative subjects (pre-vaccination concentration < cut-off of 5 EL.U/mL): antibody concentrations at least four times the cut-off (post-vaccination concentration ≥ 20 EL.U/mL), one month after vaccination with Boostrix®; For initially seropositive subjects with pre-vaccination concentration ≥ 5 EL.U/mL and < 20 EL.U/mL: an increase in antibody concentrations of at least four times the pre-vaccination concentration one month after vaccination with Boostrix®; For initially seropositive subjects with pre-vaccination concentration ≥ 20 EL.U/mL: an increase in antibody concentrations of at least two times the pre-vaccination concentration one month after vaccination with Boostrix®.

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination

  6. Anti-H1N1, Anti-H3N2 and Anti-B Antibody Titers

    Anti-H1N1, anti-H3N2 and anti-B antibody titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).

    Measured: At Month 1 post-Fluarix® vaccination

  7. Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site. Subjects from Boostrix+Fluarix Groups (19-64 YOA and ≥ 65 YOA) received only one vaccination dose (Boostrix® vaccine co-administered with Fluarix® vaccine), at Day 0.

    Measured: During the 15-day (Day 0-14) period following each dose and across doses, up to 2 months

  8. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, fever [defined as oral temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)], gastrointestinal (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain), headache, joint pain, muscle aches and shivering. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to the study vaccination. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.0 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination. Subjects from Boostrix+Fluarix Groups (19-64 YOA and ≥ 65 YOA) received only one vaccination dose (Boostrix® vaccine co-administered with Fluarix® vaccine), at Day 0.

    Measured: During the 15-day (Day 0-14) period following each dose and across doses, up to 2 months

  9. Number of Subjects With 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 period (Day 0-30) following each vaccination, up to 2 months

  10. Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.

    Measured: Throughout the whole study period (from Day 0 to Month 2)

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fluarix® and Boostrix® in people with Acellular Pertussis and Diphtheria, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 12 sites in United States.

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 6 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 10 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States. 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 17 Sep 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 Diphteria (D) and Tetanus (T) Toxoid Antigens (time frame: At Month 1 post-Boostrix® vaccination). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00385255, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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.
