Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Number of Participants With Immediate Unsolicited Adverse Events (AE) After Primary Series Vaccination

    An unsolicited AE is an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the electronic case report form (eCRF) in terms of diagnosis and/or onset post-vaccination.

    Measured: Within 30 minutes after vaccination

  2. Number of Participants With Solicited Injections Site or Systemic Reactions After Primary Series Vaccination

    A solicited reaction is an adverse reaction observed and reported under the conditions (symptom and onset) prelisted (i.e., solicited) in the eCRF and considered as related to vaccination. Solicited injection site reactions: injection site tenderness, erythema, and swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: fever, vomiting, crying abnormal, drowsiness, appetite lost, and irritability

    Measured: Within 7 days after vaccination

  3. Number of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events After Primary Series Vaccination

    An unsolicited AE is an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the eCRF in terms of diagnosis and/or onset post-vaccination. An unsolicited non-serious AE is an unsolicited AE excluding serious adverse events (SAEs). Systemic AEs are all AEs that are not injection site reactions. They therefore include systemic manifestations such as headache, fever, as well as localized or topical manifestations that are not associated with the vaccination site.

    Measured: Within 30 days after vaccination

  4. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events During the Study

    An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalisation, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is an important medical event.

    Measured: Day 0 to Day 420

  5. Number of Participants With Immediate Unsolicited Adverse Events After Booster Vaccination

    An unsolicited AE is an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the eCRF in terms of diagnosis and/or onset post-vaccination.

    Measured: Within 30 minutes after booster vaccination

  6. Number of Participants With Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reactions After Booster Vaccination

    A solicited reaction is an adverse reaction observed and reported under the conditions (symptom and onset) prelisted (i.e., solicited) in the eCRF and considered as related to vaccination. Solicited injection site reactions: tenderness, erythema, swelling, and extensive limb swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: fever, vomiting, crying abnormal, drowsiness, appetite lost, and irritability.

    Measured: Within 7 days after booster vaccination

  7. Number of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events After Booster Vaccination

    An unsolicited AE is an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the eCRF in terms of diagnosis and/or onset post-vaccination. An unsolicited non-serious AE is an unsolicited AE excluding SAEs. Systemic AEs are all AEs that are not injection site reactions. They therefore include systemic manifestations such as headache, fever, as well as localized or topical manifestations that are not associated with the vaccination site.

    Measured: Within 30 days after booster vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Hexaxim®: DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP-T Combined Vaccine in people with Diphtheria and Tetanus, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 1 site in South Africa.

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 8 inclusion and 7 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 5 Apr 2022. 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 South Africa. 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?

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?

Number of Participants with Anti-Pertussis Toxoid (PT) and Anti-Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) Antibody (Ab) Concentrations >= Lower Limit of Quantification (LLOQ) and >=4*LLOQ at Baseline (time frame: Day 0 (baseline)). The study lists 9 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 5 Apr 2022.
