About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomised, Controlled, Multi-centre Study of the Immunogenicity and Safety of a Booster Dose of Two Different Hepatitis B Vaccines to Explore the Anamnestic Immune Response in Healthy 4 to 7 Year-old Children Previously Vaccinated at About 3, 5 and 11 to 13 Months of Age With Either HEXAVAC® or INFANRIX®-HEXA

Primary objective:

  • To describe in subjects vaccinated with 3 doses of HEXAVAC® or 3 doses of INFANRIX®-HEXA during the first two years of life the percentage of subjects with an anti-HBs antibody titre ≥10 mIU/mL 1 month after a booster dose of either HBVaxPRO® 5 µg or Engerix B® 10 µg .

Secondary objectives:

  • Additional immunogenicity assessments
  • Standard safety assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HBVaxPRO® 5 µg / 0.5 mL and Engerix B® 10 µg / 0.5 mL in people with Hepatitis B, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 5 sites in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 12 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 11 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Italy. 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?

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?

Percentage of subjects with anti-HBs antibody titres >=10 mIU/mL measured at 1 month post-booster dose (time frame: 28 to 42 days). 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 NCT00693186, 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 11 Sep 2017.
