What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • RotarixBiological

    A rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix) will be administered in two doses, 8 weeks apart, in infants between 6 and 14 weeks of age. The standard dosage is 1 mL administered orally or per gastrostomy tube.

What is being measured

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

  1. The safety of the rotavirus vaccine in infants with intestinal failure is the primary outcome variable.

    Measured: 1-12 weeks following vaccine administration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The secondary outcome measure is the preliminary measurement of the immunogenicity of the rotavirus vaccine in infants with intestinal failure.

    Measured: 1-12 weeks following vaccine administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rotarix in people with Intestinal Failure and Rotavirus Vaccines, run by Seattle Children's Hospital at 1 site 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 7 inclusion and 4 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 18 Nov 2015. 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 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?

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?

The safety of the rotavirus vaccine in infants with intestinal failure is the primary outcome variable. (time frame: 1-12 weeks following vaccine administration). 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 18 Nov 2015.
