Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of the PXVX0200 live cholera vaccine versus placebo in volunteers (Vaccinees) and whether PXVX0200, which is a live attenuated bacteria, can be transmitted to other adults living in the same household.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of the LIve Oral Cholera Vaccine Candidate PXVX0200 Vibrio Cholerae Serotype 01 Inaba CVD 103-HgR Vaccine Strain

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of the PXVX0200 live cholera vaccine versus placebo in volunteers (Vaccinees) and whether PXVX0200, which is a live attenuated bacteria, can be transmitted to other adults living in the same household.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 60 subjects and up to 120 household contacts will be enrolled in the United States. Vaccinees will be randomly assigned to receive either PXVX0200 or placebo in a 5:1 ratio and will be followed for 180 days postdose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety

    Safety defined as frequency and severity of vaccine-related reactogenicity events and reported AEs

    Measured: Day 0-180

  2. Immunogenicity

    Immunogenicity as defined as rate of seroconversion (4-fold rise) of serum Inaba vibriocidal antibody and initial estimates of between subject variability of vibriocidal antibody response

    Measured: Day 0-28

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Kinetics

    Kinetics of serum Inaba vibriocidal antibody after 1 oral dose of CVD 103-HgR

    Measured: Day 0-28

  2. Serum anti-cholera toxin (CT) IgG antibody conversion rates

    Anti-cholera toxin IgG antibody conversion rates

    Measured: Day 0-28

  3. Fecal shedding

    Fecal shedding of CVD 103-HgR by vaccine recipient

    Measured: Day 0-7

  4. Vibriocidal seroconversion and shedding of CVD 103-HgR in household contacts

    Vibriocidal seroconversion and shedding of CVD 103-HgR in household contacts

    Measured: Day 0-28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PXVX0200 in people with Cholera, run by Bavarian Nordic at 2 sites 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 4 inclusion and 10 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 27 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Safety (time frame: Day 0-180). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01585181, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jun 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
