About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of Canadian Manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed (Td) for Adult Use Vaccine Compared With U.S. Manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed for Adult Use Vaccine In Persons 60 Years of Age and Older and Immunogenicity and Safety of Canadian Td Vaccine in Persons 11 Through 59 Years of Age

To compare the seroprotection rates and booster responses to Canadian-manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine to the seroprotection rates and booster responses to the US-manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine when administered to subjects ≥ 60 years of age.

To compare the post-vaccination geometric mean titers of antibody (GMTs) to Canadian manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine to the post-vaccination GMTs to the US manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine when administered to subjects ≥ 60 years of age.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, partially open-label, partially randomized double blind trial for immunogenicity and safety in the United States. Participants will be enrolled to one of three treatment groups:

  • Subjects ages 11-59 years will receive Canadian manufactured Td vaccine on Day 0
  • Subjects 60 years or older will be randomized to receive either US manufactured Td on Day 0, or,
  • Subjects 60 years or older randomized to receive Canadian manufactured Td on Day 0

The trial is designed to assess the safety of Canadian Manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine in all trial participants 11 to 59 years of age and to describe the immune responses in subsets of adolescents (11-14, and 15-18 years of age) and in a subset of adults 19-59 years of age. The trial will also compare the immune responses and safety in subjects ≥ 60 years of age receiving Canadian Manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine to an equal number of subjects ≥ 60 years of age receiving US Manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants ≥ 60 Years of Age With Antibody Levels ≥ 0.10 IU/mL to Tetanus and Diphtheria.

    Seroprotection and booster responses for both tetanus and diphtheria were considered to be an antibody level of ≥ 0.10 IU/mL 28 days post-vaccination with either the Canadian-manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine or the US-manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed vaccine in participants ≥ 60 years of age.

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Post-vaccination Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) to Tetanus and Diphtheria in Participants ≥ 60 Years Vaccinated With Canadian-manufactured or US-manufactured Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed Vaccine.

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed (Td) Vaccine in people with Diphtheria and Tetanus, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 2 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 5 inclusion and 16 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 2 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 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 18 Feb 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?

Percentage of Participants ≥ 60 Years of Age With Antibody Levels ≥ 0.10 IU/mL to Tetanus and Diphtheria. (time frame: 28 Days post-vaccination). 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 14 Apr 2016.
