About this study

Official title: A Phase 4, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Safety and the Humoral and Intestinal Immunogenicity of One or Two Additional Doses of Licensed Inactivated Polio Vaccines (IPVs) in Latin American Infants Previously Vaccinated With Bivalent Oral Polio Vaccines (bOPVs)

This study is a Phase IV, open, randomized, multi-center, controlled vaccine trial conducted in healthy Latin American infants, utilizing one or two supplemental doses of IPV in children previously vaccinated with 3 doses of bOPV. We will examine the impact of supplemental IPV on stool shedding and humoral immunity, as well as intra-IPV manufacturer comparability, and safety.

Read the detailed description

The world polio eradication effort is near its goal of reducing the number of new cases of polio to zero. However, final and definitive eradication of the disease will require stopping the use of oral polio vaccines (OPV's) which contain live virus and can rarely revert back to disease producing strains. This period will result in a risk of polio re-emergence as immunity will wane while some vaccine poliovirus will still be circulating. Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) could potentially play a central role during this process but at present barriers of cost and logistics prevent its routine use in resource limited countries, and concerns exist as to whether IPV provides enough immunity in the intestine to reduce the spread of polioviruses in communities once OPV's are stopped. We plan a multi-center trial in Latin America in which we will administer 1 or 2 doses of IPV to children previously vaccinated with an OPV containing type 1 and 3 poliovirus (bOPV), and then assess the shedding in the stool of a type 2 OPV virus administered later. A decrease in the amount of virus shed compared to children not given IPV would indicate that the IPV boosted intestinal immunity, and would suggest that spread of virus in communities could be reduced using this strategy. We will also measure the impact of supplemental IPV's on antibody formation in the blood, which is a marker of protection of the individual from polio disease. A secondary aim will be to compare the immunogenicity and safety of three IPV's produced by different manufacturers. The overall goal will be to inform policy makers in polio eradication regarding the potential role that one or two doses of IPV might play in the final steps toward polio eradication.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in the stool poliovirus excretion after mOPV2 challenge (shedding index)

    The basis for calculation of the quantitative shedding index endpoint is to measure the change of viral concentrations shed in stool post-mOPV2 challenge from the baseline timepoint at day 0 to 7, 14, 21 and 28 days as measured from time of mOPV challenge. Quantitative shedding index endpoint will be computed as an area under the viral shedding curve based on these three log10-transformed measurements.

    Measured: Within 28 days of mOPV2 challenge

  2. Seroconversion and seroprotection to type 1, 2 and 3 poliovirus

    The first serologic response endpoint is neutralizing antibody titer defined as the estimated dilution at which 50% neutralizing activity is achieved. The second serologic response endpoint is the binary seroconversion indicator. Seroconversion is considered to be achieved by the time of the subsequent time point if type-specific titers measured at that time are ≥1:8 and > 4-fold over expected levels of maternally-derived antibody computed from the observed titer at baseline assuming an exponential decay with ½ life of 24 days. The third serologic response endpoint of seroprotection is a binary outcome computed from a single antibody titer measurement with seroprotection being achieved if the measured titer is > 1:8.

    Measured: At 6 and 14 weeks, and then before and 1 week after mOPV2 challenge

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Comparability of seroconversion and seroprotection from different IPV vaccines

    To determine whether IPVs from different manufacturers (Sanofi, GSK, SII) are comparable in their ability to induce/boost an antibody response to the 3 poliovirus serotypes in infants vaccinated with 1 or 2 IPV doses after receiving 3 doses of bOPV at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age

    Measured: At 6 and 14 weeks, and then before and 1 week after mOPV2 challenge

  2. Safety of each vaccine (tOPV, bOPV, mOPV, Sanofi IPV, GSK IPV and SII IPV) and each vaccine schedule

    1. Number of severe adverse events (SAE)throughout the study period
    2. Number of important medical events (IME) as protocol defined: up to 28 days post-vaccination
    3. Number of Local \& systemic solicited AEs: 3 days post-vaccination

    Measured: 10 months for each subject

A Phase 4 study testing Bivalent Oral Polio Vaccine (bOPV), Trivalent Oral Polio Vaccine (tOPV) and Monovalent Oral Polio Vaccine Type 2 (mOPV2) in people with Poliomyelitis, run by Fidec Corporation at 4 sites in 4 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 3 inclusion and 12 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 6 Aug 2015. 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 Colombia, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Panama. 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?

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?

Change in the stool poliovirus excretion after mOPV2 challenge (shedding index) (time frame: Within 28 days of mOPV2 challenge). 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 NCT01831050, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 6 Aug 2015.
