Vaccination Against Pertussis, Tetanus and Diphtheria in Patients Suffering From Rheumatoid Arthritis
A Phase 4 study testing Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine, Adsorbed) in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.
Trial summary
Pertussis is an acute respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. Rates of recent B. pertussis infection between 8%--26% have been reported among adults with cough illness of at least 5 days duration who sought medical care. The CDC recommends vaccinating patients aged 15 to 64 years old, once in 10 years. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Vaccination Against Pertussis. Tetanus and Diphtheria in Patients Suffering From Rheumatoid Arthritis
Pertussis is an acute respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. Rates of recent B. pertussis infection between 8%--26% have been reported among adults with cough illness of at least 5 days duration who sought medical care. The CDC recommends vaccinating patients aged 15 to 64 years old, once in 10 years. Although acellular vaccines such as BOOSTRIX have been evaluated in healthy population, the safety and efficacy of this vaccine in patients suffering from rheumatic diseases have not been established.
Study population : 50 Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients and 5 healthy controls
Evaluation : the evaluation will be performed on week 0 and 4-6 weeks later. In terms of safety, the patients will be evaluated according to the Disease Activity Index (DAS). Blood will be drawn at each visit at tested for humoral response to tetanus and pertussis.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine, Adsorbed)Biological
a single 0.5-mL intramuscular injection into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Tdap vaccination | Active comparator | Patients and controls will be vaccinated with BOOSTRIX (Tdap vaccine) Receives: Biological: Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine, Adsorbed) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Immunogenicity of Tdap in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis
Geometric mean titers and individual responses to components of pertussis, tetanus and diphtheria
Measured: 4-6 weeks after vaccination
Secondary outcomes (1)
Safety of Tdap vaccine in RA patients
Safety will be evaluated using the disease activity score (DAS) at baseline and 4-6 weeks later
Measured: 4-6 weeks after vaccination

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine, Adsorbed) in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.
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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2011. 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 Israel. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Ori Elkayam, M.D (97236973668, orie@tasmc.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Immunogenicity of Tdap in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis (time frame: 4-6 weeks after 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 23 Feb 2011.
