Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that GSK Biologicals’ 10 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Synflorix) when co-administered with Pediacel is non-inferior to co-administration with Infanrix hexa, in terms of immune response to the 10 pneumococcal vaccine serotypes and to protein D, when administered as a three-dose primary vaccination course. Criteria for non-inferiority: For each of the 10 pneumococcal vaccine serotypes and protein D, non-inferiority will be demonstrated if the upper limit of the 2-sided 95% CI of the geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) ratio between groups (Synflorix + Infanrix hexa Group over Synflorix + Pediacel Group), is lower than 2.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All subjects were supervised for 30 min after vaccination/product administration with appropriate medical treatment readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic reaction. Vaccines/products were administered by qualified and trained personnel. Vaccines/products were administered only to eligible subjects that had no contraindications to any components of the vaccines/products. Also, all Intramuscular injections were administered into the anterolateral region of the thigh or into the deltoid. The buttock was not used for administration of vaccines because of the potential risk of injury to the sciatic nerve and the risk of decreased immunogenicity because of inadvertent subcutaneous injection or injection into deep fat tissue. For all intramuscular injections, the needle was selected long enough to reach the muscle mass and prevent vaccine from seeping into subcutaneous tissue, but not so long as to involve underling nerves and blood vessels or bone. Vaccinators were familiar with the anatomy of the area into which they are injecting vaccine. When appropriate, an individual decision on needle size and site of injection was made for each person on the basis of age, and the size of the muscle. Subjects were followed-up for 31 days after the last vaccination/product administration for adverse events following vaccination. Subjects were also followed during the entire study period for serious adverse events (SAEs).

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: Not all study participants returned in time for every study visit, but they were allowed to continue the study nonetheless. The number of participants who started each study period depends on the actual rate of return of the subjects.

    End point description
    Antibody concentrations were presented as GMCs and expressed in mIU/mL. A seroprotected subject was a subject whose antibody ChemiLuminescence ImmunoAssay(CLIA) concentration was ≥10 mIU/mL. Note: investigations on the quality of some serology assays revealed that the anti-HBs ELISA overestimated concentration between 10-100 mIU/mL while values >100 mIU/mL were confirmed valid. All available samples at one month post-dose III and month post-dose IV timepoints for which the anti-HBs antibody concentration was between 10-100 mIU/mL by in-house ELISA, were retested by the commercial assay Centaur, an FDA-approved and CE-marked CLIA with a cut-off defining seropositivity of 6.2 mIU/mL. Anti-HBs seroprotection was redefined as in-house ELISA concentration >100 mIU/mL or CLIA concentration >10 mIU/mL.

    Anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) antibody concentrations - Booster vaccination
    End point description
    Antibody concentrations were presented as GMCs and expressed in mIU/mL. A seroprotected subject was a subject whose antibody CLIA concentration was ≥10 mIU/mL. Note: investigations on the quality of some serology assays revealed that the anti-HBs ELISA overestimated concentration between 10-100 mIU/mL while values >100 mIU/mL were confirmed valid. Therefore, all available samples at one month post-dose III and one month post-dose IV timepoints for which the anti-HBs antibody concentration was between 10-100 mIU/mL by in-house ELISA, were retested by the commercial assay Centaur, an FDA-approved and CE-marked CLIA with a cut-off defining seropositivity of 6.2 mIU/mL. Anti-HBs seroprotection was redefined as in-house ELISA concentration >100 mIU/mL or CLIA concentration >10 mIU/mL. The Booster ATP cohort for immunogenicity included all evaluable subjects, for whom assay results were available for antibodies against at least one study vaccine antigen component after booster vaccination.

    End point description
    A booster responder to PT/FHA/PRN was defined as a subject with antibodies concentration ≥ 5 EL.U/mL against PT/FHA/PRN in subjects who were initially seronegative for anti-PT/FHA/PRN antibodies (i.e., subjects with anti-PT/FHA/PRN antibody concentrations < 5 EL.U/mL), or antibody concentration ≥ 2 fold the pre-vaccination antibody concentration in subjects who were initially seropositive (i.e., subjects with anti-PT/FHA/PRN antibody concentrations ≥ 5 EL.U/mL). All evaluable subjects, for whom assay results were available for the respective antigen both before and after booster vaccination. For Anti-PT and anti-FHA antigens, evaluable data were not available for 1 participant (Synflorix + Infanrix Hexa), 2 and 1 participants respectively (Synflorix + Pediacel), 2 and 3 participants (Prevenar + Pediacel).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    22 Nov 2007
    A first amendment was made to the protocol in response to comments from the Dutch Authorities to clarify that this study was a single-centre study.
    30 Jan 2008
    On request of the Dutch Authorities, a second amendment to the protocol was made. Changes concerned the study design: 1) Before vaccination at Visit 1 no blood sample was to be collected; 2) The priority ranking for testing of opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) activity against the 10 pneumococcal vaccine serotypes in case of insufficient blood sample volume was changed; 3) Testing of OPA activity against the 10 pneumococcal vaccine serotypes was to be done for all subjects i.e. all subjects for which the amount of remaining/available serum is sufficient; 4) The sample size was increased.
    14 Aug 2008
    Changes concerned the study design: 1) To collect information about factors that could potentially influence nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus (S.). pneumoniae and Haemophilus (H.) influenzae, it was planned that the subjects’ parents/ guardian(s) would be asked some questions at Visits 4, 5, 7, 8 and 9; 2) The recruitment period was changed to 9 months.
    22 Mar 2010
    The following changes were introduced: 1) Due to the H1N1 influenza pandemic, the children were offered H1N1 influenza vaccine as part of a national pandemic prevention plan. Thus, the age range for the booster vaccination visit and subsequent visits was extended; 2) Further details on microbiological testing were included; 3) A second Interim Analysis was added to evaluate carriage (at 3 timepoints) using classical methods for bacterial identification / typing, additional microbiological techniques for H. influenzae/H. haemolyticus discrimination and quantitative molecular techniques for H. influenzae carriage; 4) The back-up contact details for reporting SAEs were updated.
