About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety Exploration of a Booster Dose of a Live Attenuated Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (IMOJEV®) Given One Year After Primary Immunization in Healthy Children in South Korea

The aim of this study was to document the immunogenicity and safety of a booster dose of IMOJEV administered at least 12 months after the primary dose.

Primary objective:

  • To describe the immune response to Japanese Encephalitis (JE) before and 28 days after a booster dose of IMOJEV administered at least 12 months after primary vaccination with IMOJEV.

Exploratory objectives:

  • To describe the safety profile of a booster dose of IMOJEV® .
Read the detailed description

Participants who previously participated in Study JEC12 (NCT01396512) and were primed with IMOJEV received a booster dose of IMOJEV at least 12 months after the primary dose. Participants were assessed for immune response before and on Day 28 after the booster dose and were monitored for safety through Day 28 post-vaccination for non-serious adverse events (AEs) and up to 6 months post-vaccination for serious AEs The duration of each participant's participation in the study was approximately 6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With JE Seroprotection Before and Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given One Year After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using a 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50). Seroprotection status for antibody levels against JE virus before and after IMOJEV vaccination was defined as antibody titers ≥ 10 (1/dilution).

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

  2. Percentage of Participants With JE Seroconversion Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given One Year After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50. Seroconversion was defined as a pre-vaccination titer <10 (1/dilution) and post-vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dilution, or pre-vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dilution) and a ≥4-fold increase of titers from pre- to post-vaccination.

    Measured: Day 28 post-booster injection

  3. Summary of Geometric Mean Titers of JE Virus Antibodies Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given One Year After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50 test.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

  4. Summary of Geometric Mean Titer Ratios of JE Virus Antibodies Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given One Year After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

  5. Percentage of Participants With JE Seroprotection Before and After a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given At Different Intervals After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50. Seroprotection was defined as neutralizing antibody titer ≥ 10 (1/dilution).

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

  6. Percentage of Participants With JE Seroconversion Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given At Different Intervals After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50. Seroconversion was defined as a pre-vaccination titer <10 (1/dilution) and post-vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dilution, or pre-vaccination titer ≥10 (1/dilution) and a ≥4 fold increase from pre- to post-vaccination.

    Measured: Day 28 post-booster injection

  7. Summary of Geometric Mean Titers of JE Virus Antibodies Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV At Different Intervals After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

  8. Summary of Geometric Mean Titer Ratios of JE Virus Antibodies Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given At Different Intervals After Primary Immunization

    JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using PRNT50.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing IMOJEV in people with Japanese Encephalitis, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 8 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 5 inclusion and 17 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 28 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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 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 13 Dec 2017). 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 JE Seroprotection Before and Following a Booster Dose of IMOJEV Given One Year After Primary Immunization (time frame: Day 0 (pre-booster) and Day 28 post-booster injection). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Mar 2022.
