What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 10 Days After Vaccination

    Local reactions were recorded using an electronic diary (e-diary). Local reactions included redness, swelling and pain at the injection site. Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter (cm). Redness and swelling were graded as mild (greater than [>] 2.0 to 5.0 cm), moderate (>5.0 to 10.0 cm) and severe (>10.0 cm). Pain at injection site was graded as mild (did not interfere with activity), moderate (interfered with activity), and severe (prevented daily activity).

    Measured: Within 10 days after vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants With Systemic Events Within 7 Days After Vaccination

    Systemic events fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain were recorded by using an e-diary. Fever was defined as temperature >=38.0 degree Celsius (C) and categorized to >=38.0 to 38.4 degree C, >38.4 to 38.9 degree C, >38.9 to 40.0 degree C and >40.0 degree C. Fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain were graded as mild (did not interfere with activity), moderate (some interference with activity) and severe (prevented daily routine activity).

    Measured: Within 7 days after vaccination

  3. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Within 1 Month After Vaccination

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in study participants who received study vaccine without regard to possibility of causal relationship with the treatment.

    Measured: Within 1 month after vaccination

  4. Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Within 6 Months After Vaccination

    An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence at any dose that results in death; is life-threatening (immediate risk of death); requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity (substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions); results in congenital anomaly/birth defect or that is considered to be an important medical event.

    Measured: Within 6 months after vaccination

  5. Percentage of Participants With Newly Diagnosed Chronic Medical Conditions (NDCMCs) Within 6 Months After Vaccination

    An NDCMC was defined as a disease or medical condition, not previously identified, that was expected to be persistent or was otherwise long-lasting in its effects.

    Measured: Within 6 months after vaccination

  6. Pneumococcal Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA) Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) at 1 Month After Vaccination

    OPA GMTs were determined for serotypes: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 23F, 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F. OPA titer was expressed as reciprocal of the highest serum dilution.

    Measured: 1 month after vaccination

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pneumococcal OPA Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) From Before Vaccination to 1 Month After Vaccination

    OPA GMFR is the ratio of OPA GMTs, 1 month after vaccination to before vaccination. OPA GMFRs from before to 1 month after vaccination were calculated for pneumococcal serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 23F, 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F.

    Measured: From before vaccination to 1 month after vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants With >=4-Fold Rise in Pneumococcal OPA Titers From Before Vaccination to 1 Month After Vaccination

    Percentage of participants with a >=4-fold rise in pneumococcal OPA titers from before vaccination to 1 month after vaccination were calculated for pneumococcal serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 23F, 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F.

    Measured: From before vaccination to 1 month after vaccination

  3. Percentage of Participants With Pneumococcal OPA Titers >=Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ) at 1 Month After Vaccination

    The percentage of participants with OPA titers >=LLOQ at 1 month after vaccination were calculated for pneumococcal serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 23F, 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F.

    Measured: 1 month after vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 13vPnC, PPSV23 and 20vPnC in people with Pneumococcal Disease, run by Pfizer at 42 sites in 2 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 2 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 21 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 42 sites in United States, Sweden. 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 21 Feb 2021). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 10 Days After Vaccination (time frame: Within 10 days after vaccination). The study lists 6 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 NCT03835975, 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 21 Feb 2021.
