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:
    A phase III long-term follow-up study to assess immunological memory induced following primary and booster vaccination with GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (10Pn-PD-DiT), through evaluation of early antibody responses after an additional dose of 10Pn-PD-DiT at 40-48 months of age, to evaluate in the fourth year of life, the immunogenicity and safety of a 2-dose catch-up immunization course with the 10Pn-PD-DiT vaccine and the impact of pneumococcal vaccination on nasopharyngeal carriage.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate the immunological memory induced following primary vaccination in study 10PN-PD-DIT-010 (107017) and booster vaccination in study 10PN-PD-DIT-014 (107137) with the 10Pn-PD-DiT vaccine, through evaluation of early antibody responses after an additional dose of 10Pn-PD-DiT at 40-48 months of age, compared to the unprimed group. Criteria for immune memory: The immune memory will be demonstrated if the lower limit of the 95% CI around the GMC ratios (pooled primed groups over unprimed group) is higher than 1 for all 10 vaccine serotypes.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The subjects were observed closely for at least 30 minutes following the administration of vaccine(s), with appropriate medical treatment readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic reaction.

    Antibody concentrations against pneumococcal serotypes 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F (Anti-1, -4, -5, -6B, -7F, -9V, -14, -18C, -19F and -23F) have been assessed by 22F-inhibition enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) and expressed in micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL). The seropositivity cut-off value of the assay was an antibody concentration greater than or equal to (≥) 0.05 μg/mL. The analysis was performed on the According-to-Protocol (ATP) cohort for immunogenicity, which included all evaluable subjects for whom data concerning immunogenicity outcome measures and assay results for antibodies against at least one pneumococcal vaccine serotype were available after vaccination.

The results are expressed as the frequencies of antigen-specific memory B-cells within the total memory B-cell population. The analysis was performed on the ATP cohort for immunogenicity, which included all evaluable subjects for whom data concerning immunogenicity outcome measures and assay results for antibodies against at least one pneumococcal vaccine serotype were available after vaccination.

    The vaccine pneumococcal serotypes assessed were 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F (anti-1, -4, -5, -6B, -7F, -9V, -14, -18C, -19F and -23F). Antibody concentrations were measured by 22F-inhibition ELISA, presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in μg/mL. The seropositivity cut-off of the assay was an antibody concentration ≥ 0.05 μg/mL. The analysis was performed on the ATP cohort for immunogenicity, which included all evaluable subjects for whom data concerning immunogenicity outcome measures and assay results for antibodies against at least one pneumococcal vaccine serotype were available after vaccination.

    End point description
    An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    29 Mar 2011
    The primary objective of the current study is to demonstrate the immunological memory induced following primary vaccination in study 10PN-PD-DIT-010 (107017) and booster vaccination in study 10PN-PD-DIT-014 (107137) with the 10Pn-PD-DiT vaccine, through evaluation of early antibody responses after an additional dose of 10Pn-PD-DiT at 40-48 months of age. In addition, as secondary objective, the antibody persistence 25-36 months following vaccination with GSK Biologicals’ MenACWYTT conjugate vaccine in study 10PN-PD-DIT-014 (107137) will be evaluated in terms of the percentage of subjects with N. meningitidis serogroup A, C, W-135 and Y titers ≥ 8 as measured by a serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement (rSBA). In addition, to support the data obtained by rSBA testing, antibody concentrations against meningococcal polysaccharides are planned to be assessed by ELISA. However, the sponsor has decided not to perform the ELISA testing against meningococcal polysaccharides for this study for the following reasons: ● the World Health Organization (WHO) considers SBA the primary means of assessing immune response to meningococcal conjugate vaccines [WHO, 2006; WHO, 1999] ● circulating bactericidal antibodies are more critical for persistent protection against meningococcal disease than antibodies against meningococcal polysaccharides [CDC, 2011; WHO, 2006]. Although antibody concentrations will not be determined by ELISA, all subjects will be informed of their antibody titers measured by rSBA when statistical analyses have been completed.
