About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Double Blinded, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study In Healthy Adult Volunteers In Vietnam To Examine The Safety And Immunogenicity Of A Seasonal Trivalent Inactivated Split Virion Influenza Vaccine (IVACFLU-S) Produced By IVAC

This is a phase I, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial with two groups of subjects to receive seasonal trivalent inactivated split virion influenza vaccine (A/H1N1; A/H3N2 and B strains) or placebo (phosphate buffered saline). A total of 60 healthy male and female adults 18 through 45 years of age will be randomized to receive vaccine (30) or placebo (30).

Read the detailed description

This is a phase 1, single center, double blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Sixty (60) healthy male and female adults, 18 to 45 years of age, will be enrolled into the trial. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to one of two treatment allocations: 30 to vaccine, 30 to placebo. The study will utilize a "randomized block design" to assure a balance of 1:1 vaccine and placebo when all subjects are enrolled. The study will be double blinded, meaning the study subjects, investigators, and the sponsor will be unaware of the treatment allocated to each subject until the clinical trial database is declared final and locked. The study should take about 5 months to complete, with each subject involved for 3 months from the day of injection. The justification for the 3 month follow up, rather than 6 month follow up is that this is an inactivated vaccine that follows very standard manufacturing practices with standard antigens. The safety of inactivated influenza vaccines is well-established. Adding length to the follow up results in delays in future testing of the vaccine for licensure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Immediate Adverse Events

    Any adverse event occurring within the 30 minute post vaccination period.

    Measured: 30-minute post-vaccination period.

  2. Number and Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Local Reactogenicity

    Number of subjects reporting solicited local reactions (redness, swelling, pain, hardness, and tenderness) at the injection site post-vaccination with study vaccine or placebo.

    Measured: 7-day period (Days 1-7) post-vaccination.

  3. Number and Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Systemic Reactogenicity

    Number of subjects reporting solicted systemic reactions (fever, fatigue/malaise, muscle aches, joint aches, chills, nausea, vomiting, and headache) post-vaccination with study vaccine or placebo

    Measured: 7-day period (Days 1-7) post-vaccination

  4. Number and Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events

    Unsolicited AEs were any AEs that occurred any time after the vaccine/placebo was administered (temporally related to investigational product), whether or not deemed "related" to the product, and are not solicited (specifically asked of the subject). Unsolicited AEs were to be observed by the study center personnel while the subject was at the study center for a study visit or reported by the subject at any time. Any sign or symptom that would normally be considered a "solicited AE" (for example, fever, nausea, injection site pain) starting after 7 days post-vaccination were to be recorded as an "unsolicited AE. In this study, laboratory results were considered AEs when (1) the result was judged to be clinically significant by the Principal Investigator, regardless of grade; or (2) the result is Grade 2 or higher.

    Note: all unsolicited AEs were mild in intensity. Please see Adverse Events section of this report for detailed information of AEs.

    Measured: Within 21 days post-vaccination

  5. Number and Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: Over the entire study period (Day 91)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Number and Percentage of Subjects With Seroconversion Against Each of the 3 Antigens

    Seroconversion is defined as a serum HAI titer meeting the following criteria:

    • pre-vaccination titer <1:10 and a post-vaccination titer ≥ 1:40 or
    • pre-vaccination titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-vaccination measured on Day 22.

    Measured: Day 22

  2. Number and Percentage of Seroprotected Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Vaccine

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject who had a serum Hemagluttination Inhibition (HAI) titer >/= 1:40. The 3 influenza strains assessed were B, H1, and H3.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 22 post vaccination

  3. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Serum Hemaggluntination Inhibition (HAI) Antibodies for Each Antigen

    Geometric mean titers (GMTs) of Serum Hemaggluntination Inhibition (HAI) antibodies pre- (Day 1) and post-vaccination (Day 22) for each of the 3 antigens.

    Measured: Pre- (Day 1) and post-vaccination (Day 22)

  4. Geometric Mean Fold Rises (GMFRs) of Serum Hemaggluntination Inhibition (HAI) Antibodies

    Geometric mean fold rises (GMFRs) of serum hemaggluntination inhibition (HAI) antibodies post-vaccination/pre-vaccination for each of the 3 antigens

    Measured: Day 22/Day1

  5. Geometric Mean Neutralization Titers of Neutralizing Antibodies (MNT) Pre- (Day 1) and Post-Vaccination (Day 22) for Each of the 3 Antigens

    Measured: Pre- (Day 1) and Post-vaccination (Day 22)

  6. Geometric Fold Rises (GMFRs) of Neutralizing Antibodies (MNT) Post-vaccination/Pre-vaccination for Each of the 3 Antigens

    Measured: Pre- (Day 1) and Post-vaccination (Day 22)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Trivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in people with Influenza, Human, run by Institute of Vaccines and Medical Biologicals, Vietnam at 1 site in Vietnam.

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 15 Feb 2019. 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 Vietnam. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 28 Jan 2019). 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 Immediate Adverse Events (time frame: 30-minute post-vaccination period.). The study lists 5 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 NCT02598089, 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 15 Feb 2019.
