About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' (Pre-) Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Prepandrix™ in Korean Subjects Aged 18 to 60 Years Old

This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and the safety of PrepandrixTM in Korean subjects. A second group of subjects will receive FluarixTM vaccine as control.

Read the detailed description

Initially, 124 subjects were planned to be enrolled according to a 1:1 randomisation ratio. However, by mistake, the randomisation application was set up consistent with the vaccine supply ratio (2:1) rather than the treatment group randomization ratio (1:1). Subsequently, the protocol was amended to adjust the sample size and randomisation ratio for the study.

The study will enrol 126 subjects randomised 2:1. 84 subjects will receive Prepandrix™ and 42 subjects will receive Fluarix™.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Prepandrix™ and Fluarix™ in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 4 sites in South Korea.

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 7 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 7 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Dec 2014). 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?

Number of Seroconverted Subjects for Serum H5N1 Haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against Flu A/Indonesia/5/2005 (H5N1) Vaccine Strain in Prepandrix Group. (time frame: At Day 42). The study lists 4 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 NCT01730378, 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 Sep 2018.
