About this study

Official title: Assessment of the Immunogenicity and Safety of Quinvaxem Vaccine (DTwP-HepB-Hib) Against Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus, Hepatitis B and Diseases Caused by H. Influenzae Among Healthy Vietnamese Children

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the Quinvaxem vaccine (a liquid combination vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, B. pertussis, hepatitis B and H. influenzae Type B). Healthy Vietnamese infants received three doses of vaccine at 2, 3 and 4 months of age according to the local Expanded Programme on Immunisation (EPI) schedule

What participants receive

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

  • QuinvaxemBiological

    A single dose (0.5 mL) of Quinvaxem contains:

    diphtheria antitoxin (>= 30 IU), tetanus antitoxin (>= 60 IU), whole-cell inactive pertussis bacteria (>= 4 IU), 10 mcg Hib oligosaccharide conjugate (approx. 25 mcg CRM197), 10 mcg Hepatitis B surface antigen

    One dose of Quinvaxem given at 2, 3 and 4 months of age

What is being measured

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

  1. Immunogenicity - Seroprotection (Seroconversion for Pertussis) to Each Vaccine Component

    Assessment of the proportion of subjects who have seroconverted to each of the 5 vaccine components (D, T, P, HepB, Hib)

    Measured: at 5 months (equivalent to 1 month after the third vaccination)

  2. Immunogenicity - Seroprotection (Seroconversion for Pertussis) to Each Vaccine Component

    Assessment of the proportion of subjects who have seroconverted to each of the 5 vaccine components (D, T, P, HepB, Hib)

    Measured: at 14 months (equivalent to 12 months after the first vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety: Adverse and Serious Adverse Events

    Assessment of the proportion of children with adverse events and/or serious adverse events following each Quinvaxem vaccine injection

    Measured: From Day 1 up to 30 days after the third vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Quinvaxem in people with Diphtheria and Pertussis, run by Crucell Holland BV at 1 site in Vietnam.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 9 Sep 2013. 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 Vietnam. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Jun 2013). 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?

Immunogenicity - Seroprotection (Seroconversion for Pertussis) to Each Vaccine Component (time frame: at 5 months (equivalent to 1 month after the third vaccination)). The study lists 2 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 9 Sep 2013.
