About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Evaluation of the Safety and Protective Efficacy of a Single Dose of the Live Attenuated Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine TV005 to Protect Against Infection With rDEN3Δ30

This study will evaluate the ability of a single dose of the live attenuated recombinant tetravalent dengue vaccine TetraVax-DV-TV005 (referred to as TV005) to protect against infection with rDEN3Δ30, an attenuated DENV-3, when administered 6 months after the TV005 vaccine.

Read the detailed description

Dengue infection ranging from mild illness to life-threatening disease is widespread in most tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Infection with any of the four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4) can cause dengue illness. TetraVax-DV-TV005 (referred to as TV005) is a live attenuated recombinant tetravalent dengue virus vaccine developed to protect against all four dengue virus serotypes. This study will evaluate the ability of a single dose of TV005 to protect against infection with rDEN3Δ30, a naturally attenuated DENV-3, given 6 months following vaccination with TV005.

This study will enroll healthy adults with no history of previous flavivirus infection. At Day 0 (study entry), participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the TV005 vaccine or placebo. On Day 180, all participants will receive the rDEN3Δ30 virus. All participants will record their temperature 3 times a day for 16 days after each vaccination. Additional study visits will occur on Days 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 21, 28, 56, 90, 150, 184, 186, 188, 190, 192, 194, 196, 201, 208, 236, 270, and 360. Study visits will include physical examinations and blood collection.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

The vaccine is administered in 0.5 mL containing 10^3.0 PFU of each component with the exception of rDEN2/4Δ30 that is given at a dose of 10^4 PFU. TetraVax-DV-TV005 is administered by subcutaneous injection in the deltoid region of the upper arm.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TetraVax-DV-TV005 and rDEN3Δ30 in people with Dengue, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 2 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 49 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 8 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

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?

Frequency of TV005 and rDEN3Δ30-related adverse events (AEs) (time frame: Measured through Day 360). The study lists 2 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 NCT02873260, 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 8 Mar 2018.
