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 7 Days After Vaccination 1

    Local reactions included redness, swelling, and pain at the injection site occurring at the BNT162b2 or placebo injection site. Local reactions were recorded by participants in an electronic diary (e-diary). Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter (cm) and graded as mild: greater than (>) 2.0 to 5.0 cm, moderate: >5.0 to 10.0 cm, severe: >10.0 cm, and potentially life threatening (Grade 4): necrosis or exfoliative dermatitis. Pain at injection site was graded as mild: did not interfere with daily activity, moderate: interfered with daily activity, severe: prevented daily activity, and potentially life threatening (Grade 4): emergency room visit or hospitalization for severe pain. Exact 2-sided confidence interval (CI), based on the Clopper and Pearson method was used.

    Measured: Within 7 Days After Vaccination 1

  2. Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 7 Days After Vaccination 2

    Local reactions included redness, swelling, and pain at the injection site occurring at the BNT162b2 or placebo injection site. Local reactions were recorded by participants in an e-diary.

    Measured: Within 1 Month After Vaccination 2

  9. Geometric Mean Ratio (GMR) Based on Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) of Full-Length S-binding Immunoglobulin G (IgG) at 1 Month After BNT162b2 Vaccination

    GMCs of full-length S-binding IgG level for the coadministration group and separate administration group were reported in this outcome measure in descriptive data section. GMC and the 2-sided 95% CI were calculated by exponentiating the LSMeans of the concentrations and the corresponding CIs based on analysis of logarithmically transformed assay results using a linear regression model with terms of vaccine group, age group, and the corresponding baseline assay results (log scale). Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ. Geometric mean ratio (GMR) was reported in the statistical analysis section and was calculated as ratio of GMCs in the coadministration group to the separate administration group. Here, "Number of participants analyzed" signifies number of participants evaluable for this outcome measure.

    Measured: 1 Month After BNT162b2 vaccination

  10. Geometric Mean Ratio (GMR) Based on Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of Strain-Specific Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) at 1 Month After SIIV Vaccination

    GMTs of strain-specific HAI titers for the coadministration group and separate administration group were reported in this outcome measure in descriptive data section. GMTs and the 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the LSMeans of the titers and the corresponding CIs based on analysis of logarithmically transformed assay results using a linear regression model with terms of vaccine group, age group, and the corresponding baseline assay results (log scale). Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ, and results above the ULOQ were set to ULOQ+1. Geometric mean ratio (GMR) was reported in the statistical analysis section and was calculated as ratio of GMT in the coadministration group to the separate administration group.

    Measured: 1 Month After SIIV vaccination

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 15 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 12 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in New Zealand, Australia. 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 24 Nov 2023). 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 7 Days After Vaccination 1 (time frame: Within 7 Days After Vaccination 1). The study lists 10 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 NCT05310084, 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 12 Jun 2024.
