About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of MF59-adjuvanted Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (Fluad) and 23-valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPV23) in the Elderly: Single Versus Concomitant Vaccination

Similar to children, adults frequently visit outpatient clinics to get two or more kinds of vaccines at the same time: pneumococcal vaccine, influenza vaccine, Td (diphtheria and tetanus) vaccine, HPV (human papilloma virus) vaccine, meningococcal vaccine, zoster vaccine, etc. This study is intended to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant administration of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23, Prodiax) and MF59 adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine in the elderly subjects aged ≥65 years.

Read the detailed description

During influenza season, concomitant influenza and pneumococcal vaccination would be an effective strategy to enhance pneumococcal vaccine coverage rate in high-risk adults. However, the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant vaccination need to be further investigated. There is data on immunogenicity and safety after concomitant administration of pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) and unadjuvanted influenza vaccine; no interference was noted between two vaccines. However, there are no data for MF59 adjuvanted influenza vaccine with pneumococcal vaccine. MF59 only locally reacts for immune response, so immunogenicity should be assessed for both vaccines injected in same arm versus different arms.

This study is intended to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant MF59-adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine (MF59-aTIV, Fluad) and 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23, Prodiax) vaccination in the elderly subjects aged ≥65 years. Healthy elderly subjects (N = 424) are randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive MF59-aTIV alone (group 1), MF59-aTIV +PPV23 at different arm (group 2), MF59-aTIV +PPV23 at same arm (group 3) or PPV23 alone (group 4).

Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay and multiplex opsono-phagocytic killing assay (MOPA) will be used to compare the immunogenicity of each vaccine after single or concomitant vaccination at pre-vaccination and 1 month post-vaccination. MOPA will be taken for four serotypes (5, 6B, 18C and 19A).

What is being measured

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

  1. Seroconversion rates (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)

    a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40 in subjects with a pre-vaccination titer of <1:10 or a ≥4-fold titer increase in subjects with a pre-vaccination titer of ≥1:10

    Measured: Outcome measure will be assessed at two points (baseline and 4 weeks after vaccination)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Seroprotection rates (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)

    Percentage of subjects with a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40

    Measured: Outcome measure will be assessed at two points (baseline and 4 weeks after vaccination).

  2. GMT folds (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)

    GMT-fold change: GMT ratio of the post-vaccination titer to pre-vaccination titer

    Measured: Outcome measure will be assessed at two points (baseline and 4 weeks after vaccination.

  3. Opsonophagocytic assay (OPA) titers for four serotypes of PPV23 (serotypes 5, 6B, 18C and 19A)

    OPA geometric mean titers for four PPV23 serotypes with corresponding 2-sided 95% confidence intervals will be compared between groups receiving PPV23: MF59-adjuvanted TIV + PPV23 at different arm, MF59-adjuvanted TIV + PPV23 at same arm and PPV23 alone.

    Measured: Outcome measure will be assessed at two points (baseline and 4 weeks after vaccination).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fluad alone, Fluad and PPV23 on the different arms and Fluad and PPV23 on the same arm in people with Influenza, Human and Pneumococcal Infections, run by Korea University Guro Hospital.

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 10 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 27 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Seroconversion rates (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B) (time frame: Outcome measure will be assessed at two points (baseline and 4 weeks after 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 NCT02225327, 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 27 Aug 2014.
