About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Blinded, Parallel Controlled, Non-inferiority Design Phase III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of Freeze-dried Human Rabies Vaccine (Human Diploid Cells) Administered to Participants Aged 10 to 60 Years With Different Immunization Schedules

The Phase 3 clinical trial of freeze-dried human rabies vaccine (human diploid cells) adopted a randomized, blinded, parallel control,non-inferiority design,and administered vaccines to participants aged 10 to 60 years with different immunization schedules (5-dose schedule group, two simple 4-dose schedule groups, and 2-1-1 schedule group) to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the vaccine.

Read the detailed description

The trial will use a randomized, blinded, parallel-group, non-inferiority design. A total of 3000 participants will be planned to be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio to the 5-dose control vaccine schedule, the 5-dose experimental vaccine schedule, the simple 4-dose experimental vaccine schedule 1, the simple 4-dose experimental vaccine schedule 2, and the 2-1-1 trial vaccine schedule, with 600 participants in each group, including 100 participants aged 10 to 17 years and 500 participants who will be 18-60 years old. Immunogenicity visits will be scheduled for all participants: (1) 5-dose schedule group: before dose 1, day 7 (before dose 3), day 14 (7 after dose 3, before dose 4), day 28 (14 after dose 4, before dose 5), day 42 (14 days after the full schedule); (2) Simple four-dose schedule group 1: before dose 1, day 14 (7 days after dose 3 and before dose 4), day 28 (14 days after the full dose), and day 42 (28 days after the full schedule); (3) Simple four-dose schedule group 2: before dose 1, day 14 (7 days after the third dose), day 28 (before the fourth dose), and day 42 (14 days after the full schedule); (4) 2-1-1 schedule group: before dose 1, day 7 (before the third dose), day 14 (7 days after the third dose) and day 35 (14 days after the full schedule). If the vaccination is delayed, the blood collection time will be postponed according to the vaccination time of the corresponding dose.

A total of 1200 participants in the immune persistence subgroup (including 200 participants aged 10-17 years and 1000 participants aged 18-60 years) will be selected. Blood samples will be collected at 3 months and 6 months after the full schedule of vaccination to evaluate the immune persistence. The first 40% of participants in the 10 to 17 years of age group and the 18 to 60 years of age group enrolled at each site will be selected as participants in the immune persistence subgroup.

All participants will be observed for safety events that will occur from the first dose through 30 days after the full schedule and for SAEs and pregnancy events that will be reported from the first dose through 6 months after the full schedule.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Freeze-dried human rabies vaccine (human diploid cells) in people with Rabies, run by Ningbo Rongan Biological Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 20 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jun 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zhiqiang Xie (+8613526534586, xiezqshang@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Antibody SCR for the 5-dose schedule group of the trial vaccine and the 5-dose schedule group of the control vaccine (time frame: 14 days after the first dose). The study lists 12 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 19 Jun 2025.
