About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Randomized, Multi-Center Study Comparing the Safety and Immunogenicity of HEPLISAV™ to Engerix-B® and Fendrix® in Adults on Hemodialysis Who Have Previously Received Hepatitis B Vaccination and Are Not Seroprotected

The purpose of this study is to compare the immune response to HEPLISAV™ booster injection with the immune response to Engerix-B® and Fendrix® booster vaccinations among patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis.

Read the detailed description

The immune response of HEPLISAV compared with Engerix-B and Fendrix and measured by seroprotection rate (SPR) at 4 weeks after the booster injection

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of subjects with seroprotection rate (SPR), defined as the percentage of subjects with anti-HBsAg serum concentration of 10 milli-international unit (mIU)/mL or higher, measured at Week 4

    Measured: week 4

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall incidence of post-injection reactions and adverse events in each treatment group

    Measured: week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HEPLISAV, Engerix-B and Fendrix in people with End Stage Renal Disease, run by Dynavax Technologies Corporation at 19 sites in Germany.

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 11 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 20 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in Germany. 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?

Proportion of subjects with seroprotection rate (SPR), defined as the percentage of subjects with anti-HBsAg serum concentration of 10 milli-international unit (mIU)/mL or higher, measured at Week 4 (time frame: week 4). 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 20 Mar 2019.
