About this study

Official title: The Clinical Trial of Pandemic Influenza Vaccine (Whole-Virion, Inactivated, Adjuvanted) on Healthy Adults by Randomized and Double-Blind Design: a Phase II Study

A single center, randomized and double-blind phase II clinical trial is to be conducted in adults to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an inactivated pandemic influenza vaccine (whole-virion, aluminium-adjuvanted).

Read the detailed description

The vaccine to be investigated is producted in embryonated hen's eggs using an H5N1 reference strain NIBRG-14 which was prepared by NIBSC. The strain is a reassortant between A/Vietnam/1194/2004 and A/PR/8/34 by reverse genetics.

Total 400 volunteers aged from 18 to 60 years old are to be enrolled with 100 subjects in each group. The eligible volunteers will receive two doses vaccine of 5μg,10μg or 15μg haemagglutinin antigen. The schedule is day 0,14 or day 0,28. The subjects will donate their blood samples for the detection of HI antibody and microneutralization antibody. Local and systematic adverse reactions will be recorded during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing pandemic influenza vaccine (H5N1 strain NIBRG-14) in people with Pandemic Influenza and Prevention, run by Sinovac Biotech Co., Ltd.

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 3 inclusion and 27 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 9 Nov 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

HI antibody and Neutralization antibody (time frame: 0,28,42,56). 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 NCT00535665, 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 9 Nov 2007.
