About this study
Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety Study of GSK Biologicals' Priorix Vaccine (209762) at an End of Shelf-life Potency Compared to Merck & Co., Inc.'s Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) Vaccine When Both Are Given on a 2-dose Schedule to Healthy Children in Their 2nd Year of Life
The purpose of this study is to evaluate end of shelf-life potency in terms of the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR vaccine, by comparing it to Merck \& Co., Inc.'s MMR vaccine, which is approved for use in the United States (US).
Read the detailed description
This trial is a Phase IIIA, randomized, observer-blind, controlled, multi-center, multi-country study with four parallel groups. This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent investigational MMR vaccine (referred to as Inv_MMR vaccine, throughout this document) in contrast to the US standard of care comparator vaccine (M-M-R II, Merck and Co., Inc., referred to as Com_MMR throughout this document) in children during their second year of life. The first dose of this two-dose study is designed to establish the end of shelf-life potency of Inv_MMR vaccine. The Inv_MMR vaccine will be given as one of two lots; one of a minimum potency, designated Inv_MMR_Min; and the other at a mid-range or medium potency designated Inv_MMR_Med to two groups. The second dose for both of these Inv_MMR groups will have a potency within the release range of the marketed vaccine. The Com_MMR vaccine will consist of two lots designated Com_MMR_L1 and Com_MMR_L2 and will be analyzed as pooled lots within the study. The first MMR vaccine dose will be co-administered with Varivax, Havrix and (in the US sub-cohort only) Prevnar 13 which are routinely administered to children of this age in the US.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate end of shelf-life potency in terms of the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR vaccine, by comparing it to Merck \& Co., Inc.'s MMR vaccine, which is approved for use in the United States (US).
Detailed description
This trial is a Phase IIIA, randomized, observer-blind, controlled, multi-center, multi-country study with four parallel groups. This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent investigational MMR vaccine (referred to as Inv_MMR vaccine, throughout this document) in contrast to the US standard of care comparator vaccine (M-M-R II, Merck and Co., Inc., referred to as Com_MMR throughout this document) in children during their second year of life. The first dose of this two-dose study is designed to establish the end of shelf-life potency of Inv_MMR vaccine. The Inv_MMR vaccine will be given as one of two lots; one of a minimum potency, designated Inv_MMR_Min; and the other at a mid-range or medium potency designated Inv_MMR_Med to two groups. The second dose for both of these Inv_MMR groups will have a potency within the release range of the marketed vaccine. The Com_MMR vaccine will consist of two lots designated Com_MMR_L1 and Com_MMR_L2 and will be analyzed as pooled lots within the study. The first MMR vaccine dose will be co-administered with Varivax, Havrix and (in the US sub-cohort only) Prevnar 13 which are routinely administered to children of this age in the US.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Priorix, M-M-R II and Varivax in people with Measles and Mumps, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 81 sites in 7 countries.
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 20 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 7 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 81 sites in United States, Czechia, Spain, Finland, Thailand and 2 more countries. 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 17 Aug 2018). 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?
Percentage of Subjects With Anti-measles Virus Antibody Concentration Equal to or Above the Cut-off-value (by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay [ELISA]) (time frame: At Day 42). The study lists 8 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 NCT01681992, 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 7 Jan 2021.
