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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 ).

    Clinical Trial Results:
    An Open-label, randomised, controlled, multi-centre study of the immunogenicity and safety of a booster dose of two different Hepatitis B vaccines to explore the anamnestic immune response in healthy 4 to 7 year-old children previously vaccinated at about 3, 5 and 11 to 13 months of age with either HEXAVAC or INFANRIX-HEXA

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Immunogenicity: To describe in subjects vaccinated with 3 doses of HEXAVAC® or 3 doses of INFANRIX-HEXA® during the first 2 years of life the percentage of subjects with an anti-HBs antibody titre ≥10 mIU/mL (i.e. seroprotection rate) 1 month after a booster dose (4th dose of a Hepatitis B vaccine) of either HBVaxPRO® 5 µg (modified process) or ENGERIX-B® 10 µg. Note: "HBVaxPRO® 5 µg (modified process)" was referred to "HBVaxPRO" and "ENGERIX-B® 10 µg" was referred to "ENGERIX-B" to facilitate reading.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Healthy subjects with known sensitivity and/or allergy to any component of the study vaccine were not vaccinated. Vaccines were administered by qualified study personnel. After each vaccination, subjects were kept under observation for at least 20 minutes to ensure their safety.
    Background therapy
    Subjects were previously vaccinated with 3 doses of HEXAVAC or 3 doses of INFANRIX-HEXA during their first 2 years of life (at about 3, 5, and 11 to 13 months of age).
    Evidence for comparator
    This study was designed to explore the immune memory against Hepatitis B in healthy 4 to 7 year-old children previously vaccinated with HEXAVAC or INFANRIX-HEXA as part as the routine immunisation program. Two different Hepatitis B vaccines were used for this purpose: HBVaxPRO (namely study product) and ENGERIX-B (namely study comparator). ENGERIX-B was used as it was the one licensed for children and adolescents from birth to 15 years of age at the time the study started. Note: The lot of HBVaxPRO used in the study expired on 14 March 2009. Consequently, the study was continued with ENGERIX-B only for all subjects from 11 March 2009.

    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: For subjects' follow-up, only subjects of period 1 with post-booster anti-HBs antibody titre <10 mIU/mL and anti-HBc antibody titre test negative as measured at the local Italian laboratory were proposed 1 or 2 extra-doses of a Hepatitis B vaccine respectively 2 and 6 months after the booster dose of either HBVaxPRO or ENGERIX-B. Thus, only 15 subjects continued in period 2 of the study.

AEs at injection sites were always considered as related to vaccine (ISRs). The investigator had to assess whether systemic AEs were vaccine-related systemic AEs or not.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Unsolicited non-serious adverse events (AEs) were collected from D0 to D14 after booster dose. Serious AEs were collected through period 1. Deaths and vaccine-related serious AEs were collected throughout the study.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Analysis of AEs was performed on the Safety Analysis Set, i.e. all randomised subjects who received at least 1 vaccination and who had safety follow-up (N=407). Unsolicited non-serious systemic AEs (vaccine-related or not) with incidence ≥1% in at least 1 reporting group are presented hereafter. None of the serious AEs were vaccine-related.
