About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of Intramuscular TAK-816 in Healthy Infants

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of intramuscular TAK-816 in healthy Japanese infants.

Read the detailed description

The vaccine being tested in this study is called TAK-816. TAK-816 was being tested to evaluate its safety and immune response after intramuscular (IM) injection with TAK-816. This study evaluated adverse events and the seroprotection rate and geometric mean titer (GMT) of anti-polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP)-antibodies in participants who were administered TAK-816 IM.

The study enrolled 31 participants. All participants received 3 doses of TAK-816 IM at 4-week intervals as part of the primary vaccination and 1 booster vaccination 52 weeks after the third dose of the primary vaccination.

This multi-center trial was conducted in Japan. The overall time to participate in this study was 64 weeks. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic including a final visit 4 weeks after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Receives: Biological: TAK-816

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Adverse events are defined as unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, regardless of relationship to the medicinal product. Among these, events which are considered possibly associated with a medicinal product are defined as adverse reactions.

    Measured: For 64 Weeks

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Reactions Related to Body Temperature (Pyrexia)

    Body temperature was assessed for 14 days after each vaccination and was recorded by the caregiver in a diary. Adverse reactions related body temperature was reported as pyrexia.

    Measured: For 64 Weeks

  3. Number of Participants With Adverse Reactions Related to Local Reactions

    Local Reactions were assessed 14 days after each vaccination and were recorded by the caregiver in a diary. Local reactions (injection site) were erythema, swelling, induration and pain (tenderness).

    Measured: For 64 Weeks

  4. Number of Participants With Adverse Reactions Related to Systemic Reactions

    Systemic Reactions were assessed 14 days after each vaccination and were recorded by the caregiver in a diary. Systemic reactions were rash, irritability, crying, decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhoea, somnolence (sleepiness) and insomnia (sleeplessness).

    Measured: For 64 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participant With Anti-PRP Antibody Titer ≥ 1.0 μg/mL

    Blood was collected and was sent to a central laboratory for the evaluation of anti-PRP antibody titer against Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) as an assessment of immunogenicity.

    Measured: For 64 weeks

  2. Percentage of Participant With Anti-PRP Antibody Titer ≥ 0.15 μg/mL

    Blood was collected and was sent to a central laboratory for the evaluation of anti-PRP antibody titer against Hib as an assessment of immunogenicity.

    Measured: For 64 weeks

  3. Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of Anti-PRP Antibody

    Blood was collected and was sent to a central laboratory for the evaluation of anti-PRP antibody titer against Hib as an assessment of immunogenicity.

    Measured: For 64 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing TAK-816 in people with Healthy Volunteers and Haemophilus Influenzae Type b, Prevention, run by Takeda at 4 sites in Japan.

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 4 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 26 Apr 2016. 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 Japan. 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 26 Apr 2016). 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 Participants With Adverse Events (time frame: For 64 Weeks). 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 NCT02074345, 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 26 Apr 2016.
