About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of the Clinical Efficacy of Trivalent Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV) Among Children in Senegal

This study will provide the Senegal Ministry of Health with data on the clinical efficacy of the Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV). This data will inform future policy considerations for influenza vaccine.

Read the detailed description

This study is a double-blind, individual-randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical efficacy trial among healthy children aged 24 through 71 months in the Niakhar area of Senegal. A total of 1,761 healthy children will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio of LAIV to placebo.

For evaluation of efficacy, passive and active surveillance will be conducted weekly throughout the study to identify outcomes among vaccinated subjects. Children meeting the protocol-defined clinical case definition will have a nasal swab and throat swab specimen collected for testing by rRT-PCR for evidence of influenza virus infection.

100 of the 1,761 participants were also included in a substudy designed to evaluate virologic evidence of LAIV replication. As such, nasal and throat swab specimens were collected on day 0 (prior to vaccination), as well as on post-vaccination days 2, and 4 from all subjects included in the substudy. These specimens will be tested for presence of wild-type and vaccine virus. Additionally, a more detailed assessment of vaccine reactogenicity will be made among these children by actively collecting solicited and unsolicited reactions at each study visit for the week post vaccination (days 2 and 4).

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic, Laboratory-confirmed Influenza Virus Infection (Regardless of Vaccine Match)

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Safety Profile of LAIV: Immediate Reactions Occurring Within 30 Minutes of Administration of Study Vaccine.

    Measured: Through 30 minutes post vaccination

  2. Safety Profile of LAIV: Solicited and Unsolicited Local and Systemic Reactions

    Measured: Through 7 days post vaccination

  3. Safety Profile of LAIV: Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: Through 1 month post vaccination

  4. Safety Profile of LAIV: Other Non-serious Adverse Events

    Measured: Through 1 month post vaccination

  5. Safety Profile of LAIV: Protocol Defined Wheezing Illness

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

  6. Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic, Laboratory-confirmed Influenza Virus Infection (Vaccine-matched Strains)

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

  7. Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic, Laboratory-confirmed Influenza Virus Infection by Influenza Type/Subtype (Influenza A/H1N1, Influenza A/H3N2, and Influenza B)

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

  8. Clinical Characteristics of Influenza in the Study Population

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

  9. Etiologies of Influenza-like Illness in the Study Population

    Bacterial and viral etiologies of acute respiratory and febrile illness will be parameterized as the percentage of those with each particular laboratory-confirmed infection categorized by vaccine allocation.

    Measured: Through 7 to 8 months post vaccination

  10. Evaluation of Vaccine-take as Shedding of Vaccine Virus Post-vaccination, Including Viral Load and Duration of Virus Detection

    Vaccine take will be parameterized as the percentage of participants with detectable vaccine-virus in nasal or throat swab on each day pre- (day 0) and post vaccination (i.e., 2 and 4 days post vaccination), and the quantity of detected virus.

    Measured: Through 4 days post vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing SIIL Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine in people with Influenza, run by PATH at 1 site in Senegal.

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 3 Jun 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 Senegal. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 Jun 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?

Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic, Laboratory-confirmed Influenza Virus Infection (Regardless of Vaccine Match) (time frame: Through 7 to 8 months post 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 NCT01854632, 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 3 Jun 2015.
