Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a lower dose of inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) injected into the skin (intradermal administration) can work equally well or better than the standard dose injected into the muscle (intramuscular administration). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Immunogenicity of Various Inactivated Polio Vaccine Booster Doses by Intradermal vs. Intramuscular Routes in HIV-Infected Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a lower dose of inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) injected into the skin (intradermal administration) can work equally well or better than the standard dose injected into the muscle (intramuscular administration). There are more immune cells in the skin than in the muscle, and other vaccines have been shown to require a lower dose when administered intradermally. The study is being done in participants infected with HIV because HIV-infected people are known to respond less well to vaccines than other groups, so it is particularly important to know if IPV might work better in HIV-infected people if administered intradermally.

If it is possible to lower the dose of IPV by intradermal administration, this would make inactivated polio vaccine more affordable in the developing countries where it is most needed

Read the detailed description

Oral polio vaccine (OPV) will not be sufficient to eradicate polio. OPV has failed to provide adequate polio immunity in certain immunocompromised populations, such as people with AIDS. Also, OPV can mutate and form neurovirulent strains capable of causing polio outbreaks. Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), which cannot mutate into neurovirulent strains and which is more effective in populations that have failed to respond to OPV, will be needed globally to eradicate polio, but it is unaffordable for many developing countries. Because there are more immune cells in the skin than in the muscle, intradermal administration of IPV may be a way to increase the efficacy and reduce the dose (and thus the cost) of IPV. We plan to conduct a clinical trial randomizing 231 HIV-infected adults to receive a booster of two-fifths dose intradermal IPV, one-fifth dose intradermal IPV, full dose intramuscular IPV, or two-fifths dose intramuscular IPV. We will measure polio immunity before and after vaccine administration. Through this study, we will determine the optimal booster dose of intradermal IPV, whether intradermal works better than intramuscular IPV administration, and whether intradermal IPV is effective in an immunocompromised population. The data from this trial could contribute to global polio eradication.

What participants receive

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

  • IPOL (Sanofi Pasteur) inactivated polio vaccine booster doseDrug

    Also called IPOL (Sanofi Pasteur)

    Depending on study arm, participants will receive 0.2 mL intradermally, 0.1 mL intradermally, 0.5 mL intramuscularly, or 0.2 mL intramuscularly.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post Booster Polio Neutralizing Antibody Titers

    Blood will be drawn at baseline and 4-6 weeks after receiving the vaccine booster dose. It will be spun down, and the serum frozen and stored at -80 degrees celsius. After all the participants have completed the study, all of the serum will be tested for polio neutralizing antibody titers.

    Measured: 4-6 weeks after receiving the vaccine

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Baseline Polio Neutralizing Antibody Titers

    serum polio neutralizing antibody titers prior to the vaccine booster

    Measured: first visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IPOL (Sanofi Pasteur) inactivated polio vaccine booster dose in people with Polio Immunity, run by Eastern Virginia Medical School at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 5 Feb 2015. 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 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 5 Feb 2015). 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?

Post Booster Polio Neutralizing Antibody Titers (time frame: 4-6 weeks after receiving the vaccine). 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 NCT01686503, 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 5 Feb 2015.
