About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of AERAS-402 Followed by MVA85A in BCG Vaccinated Adults (TB032)

This trial will investigate the administration of two new tuberculosis vaccines, called AERAS-402 and MVA85A. The purpose of this trial is to assess what happens when both of these vaccines are given one after the other. The trial will assess the safety of both vaccines and also their ability to stimulate an immune response within the body. It is hoped that when these two vaccines are given in sequence, the combined immune response is even better than when each vaccine is used individually.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group AExperimentalTwo doses of AERAS-402 (1x10^11 vp intramuscular injection) followed by one dose of MVA85A (1x10^8 pfu intradermal injection)
Receives: Biological: AERAS-402; Biological: MVA85A
Group BExperimentalOne dose of AERAS-402 (1x10^11 vp intramuscular injection) followed by one dose of MVA85A (1x10^8 pfu intradermal injection)

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety of AERAS-402 followed by MVA85A

    To evaluate the safety profile of multiple doses of AERAS-402 alone, compared to one and two doses of AERAS-402 followed by MVA85A in healthy, BCG vaccinated adults, measured by number and severity of local and systemic adverse events

    Measured: 3 months after final vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity of AERAS-402 followed by MVA85A

    To evaluate and compare the immune responses as described by flow cytometric intracellular cytokine staining, antibody serology, and Elispot assays of multiple doses of AERAS-402 alone, compared to one and two doses of AERAS-402 followed by MVA85A in healthy, BCG vaccinated adults

    Measured: 12-18 months after first vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AERAS-402 and MVA85A in people with Tuberculosis, run by University of Oxford at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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 13 inclusion and 19 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 17 Sep 2014. 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 Kingdom. 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 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 of AERAS-402 followed by MVA85A (time frame: 3 months after final vaccination). 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 NCT01683773, 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 17 Sep 2014.
