What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Grade 3 pain = significant pain at rest, pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-booster vaccination period

  2. Number of Subjects With Grade 3 and Vaccine-related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain), headache, malaise, myalgia and fever [defined as oral temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)]. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.5 °C. Related = general symptom assessed by the investigator to be casually related to the study vaccination.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-booster vaccination period

  3. Number of Subjects With Grade 3 and Vaccine-related 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. Grade 3 AE = an AE which prevented normal, everyday activities. Related = AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) post-booster vaccination period

  4. Number of Subjects With Any Vaccine-related 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: During the entire study period (from Day 0 to Day 30)

  5. Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Haematological or Biochemical Abnormalities

    Among haematological or biochemical abnormalities assessed were: Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Cholesterol, Creatine Phosphokinase (CRP), Hemoglobin decrease, Haemoglobin, Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), Neutrophils, Red blood cells (RBC), Reticulocytes, White blood cells (WBC) and Overall parameters.

    Assessment of intensity: Grading of the haematological and biochemical parameters was performed using the standard Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Toxicity Grading Scale. Changes compared to normal reference ranges were graded: Grade 1 = Mild; Grade 2 = Moderate; Grade 3 = Severe; Grade 4 = Potentially Life Threatening

    Measured: At Days 1 and 6 post-booster vaccination

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Antibody Concentrations Against Pneumococcal Pneumolysin Toxoid (dPly) and Histidine Triad Protein D (PhtD) Proteins

    Anti-dPly and anti-PhtD antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in LU/mL. The reference seropositivity cut-off values were equal to or above (≥) 599 LU/mL for anti-dPly and ≥ 391 LU/mL for anti-PhtD.

    Measured: Prior to the booster vaccination (Day 0) and one month post-booster vaccination (Day 30)

  2. Titers for Antibodies Against Pneumolysin Haemolysis (Hem-dPly) Protein

    Antibody titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The reference seropositivity cut-off value was equal to or above (≥) 6.

    Measured: Prior to the booster vaccination (Day 0) and one month post-booster vaccination (Day 30)

  3. Number of Subjects With Any Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-booster vaccination period

  4. Number of Subjects With Any Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain), headache, malaise, myalgia and fever [defined as oral temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)]. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-booster vaccination period

  5. Number of Subjects With Any Unsolicited 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 (Days 0-30) post-booster vaccination period

  6. Number of Subjects With Any 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: During the entire study period (from Day 0 to Day 30)

  7. Number of Subjects With Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 4 Haematological or Biochemical Abnormalities

    Among haematological or biochemical abnormalities assessed were: Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Cholesterol, Creatine Phosphokinase (CRP), Hemoglobin decrease, Haemoglobin, Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), Neutrophils, Red blood cells (RBC), Reticulocytes, White blood cells (WBC) and Overall parameters.

    Assessment of intensity: Grading of the haematological and biochemical parameters was performed using the standard Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Toxicity Grading Scale. Changes compared to normal reference ranges were graded: Grade 1 = Mild; Grade 2 = Moderate; Grade 3 = Severe; Grade 4 = Potentially Life Threatening

    Measured: At 1 and 6 days post-booster vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Pneumococcal vaccine GSK2189242A (formulation 1) and Pneumococcal vaccine GSK2189242A (formulation 2) in people with Infections, Streptococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Belgium.

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 10 inclusion and 21 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 17 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Jul 2017). 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 Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms (time frame: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-booster vaccination period). 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?
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 17 Aug 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
