About this study

Official title: Safety and Immunogenicity Study of GSK Biologicals' Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) Vaccine (209762) Comparing Immunogenicity and Safety to Merck & Co., Inc.'s MMR Vaccine, in Healthy Children 12 to 15 Months of Age

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent MMR (Priorix), comparing it to Merck's MMR vaccine (M-M-R II), which is approved for use in the US in healthy children 12 to 15 months of age.

Read the detailed description

This study will evaluate the safety of GSK's trivalent MMR vaccine (referred to as INV_MMR vaccine) at a potency that will be used to define maximum release limits for the INV_MMR in comparison to the US standard of care (M-M-R II/ M-M-R VaxPro vaccine referred to as COM_MMR vaccine). In order to obtain more representative data on the comparator vaccine, the COM_MMR used in this study will consist of two lots designated COM_MMR_L1 and COM_MMR_L2. Throughout the study COM_MMR_L1 and COM_MMR_L2 will be analyzed as pooled lots. This study is intended to support licensure of GSK's MMR vaccine in the US.

All children will receive Varivax and Havrix vaccines, concomitantly with MMR containing vaccine at 12 to 15 months of age. Prevnar 13 will be administered only to US children. At the end of the study, GSK will provide a second dose of Havrix and/or varicella vaccine to participants enrolled in selected non-US countries if local health departments do not routinely provide hepatitis A and varicella vaccination. The second dose of Havrix and varicella vaccine is not part of the study procedures.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Reporting Fever After MMR (Priorix or M-M-R II/M-M-R VaxPro [Lot 1 or Lot 2]) Vaccination

    Fever was assessed for temperature equal to/above (≥) 38.0°C and above (>) 39.0°C. The safety profile for fever was assessed based on the group difference (INV_MMR minus COM_MMR) in incidence of fever equal to or below the cut-off value.

    Measured: During Day 5 to Day 12 post-vaccination period

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With Anti-measles Virus Antibody Concentration Equal to or Above the Cut-off-value

    Seroresponse was defined as post-vaccination anti-measles virus antibody concentration greater than or equal to [≥] 200 milli International Units per milliliter [mIU/mL] (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay [ELISA], Enzygnost) among subjects who were seronegative (antibody concentration less than [<] 150 mIU/mL) before vaccination.

    Measured: At Day 42 post vaccination

  2. Anti-measles Virus Antibody Concentrations

    Antibody concentrations were expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs) in mIU/mL. Analyses included initially seronegative subjects only.

    Measured: At Day 42 post vaccination

  3. Percentage of Subjects With Anti-mumps Virus Antibody Concentration Equal to or Above the Cut-off-value

    Seroresponse was defined as post-vaccination anti-mumps virus antibody concentration ≥ 10 ELISA Unit per milliliter [EU/mL] (ELISA, Pharmaceutical Product Development, Inc.[PPD]) among subjects who were seronegative (antibody concentration < 5 EU/mL) before vaccination.

    Measured: At Day 42 post vaccination

  4. Anti-mumps Virus Antibody Concentrations

    Antibody concentrations were expressed as GMCs in EU/mL. Analyses included initially seronegative subjects only.

    Measured: At Day 42 post vaccination

  5. Percentage of Subjects With Anti-rubella Virus Antibody Concentration Equal to or Above the Cut-off-value

    Seroresponse was defined as post-vaccination anti-rubella virus antibody concentration ≥ 10 International Unit per milliliter [IU/mL] (ELISA, Enzygnost) among subjects who were seronegative (antibody concentration < 4 IU/mL) before vaccination.

    Measured: At Day 42 post vaccination

  6. Anti-rubella Virus Antibody Concentrations

    Antibody concentrations were expressed as GMCs in IU/mL. Analyses included initially seronegative subjects only.

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 21 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 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 95 sites in United States, Finland, Taiwan, Puerto Rico, Estonia. 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 3 Jul 2018). 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 Subjects Reporting Fever After MMR (Priorix or M-M-R II/M-M-R VaxPro [Lot 1 or Lot 2]) Vaccination (time frame: During Day 5 to Day 12 post-vaccination period). 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 NCT02184572, 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 Jan 2021.
