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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    This study determined whether participants who receive the vaccine V419 at 2, 3, 4, and 12 months of age have an acceptable immune response to the vaccine. The study also determined whether the immune response to V419 is similar to that of participants who receive a licensed vaccine control.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.

    End point description
    Antibody titres in the PR5I group were measured by Radioimmunoassay (RIA) for Haemophilus influenzae type b (PRP), Micrometabolic inhibition test (MIT) for diphtheria & poliovirus, and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for tetanus. 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated based on the exact binomial method by Clopper and Pearson. The immune response to PR5I vaccine was considered as acceptable if the lower bounds of the 2-sided 95% CI for the response rates were greater than the predetermined lower CI limits for PRP, diphtheria (80%), tetanus (90%), and IPV1, 2 & 3 (90%). The population analyzed was all participants in the PR5I group who met inclusion criteria, were not protocol violators, received vaccinations within acceptable day ranges, and who had serology results within revised windows (RW) of Days 28 to 51 Post-Dose 3. Participants from site 0048 were excluded.

    Ab titres were measured by ELISA, excepting the Ab to varicella which was determined by glycoprotein ELISA. Percentage of participants with an Ab titre ≥255 mIU/mL for measles, ≥10 Ab units/mL for mumps, ≥10 IU/mL for rubella, and ≥5 gpELISA units/mL for varicella are reported. 95% CI were calculated based on the exact binomial method by Clopper and Pearson. The immune response to ProQuad vaccine was considered as acceptable if the lower bounds of the 2-sided 95% CI for the response rates were greater than the predetermined lower CI limits: 90% for measles, mumps & rubella, and 76% for varicella. The population analyzed was all participants in the PR5I group who met inclusion criteria, were not protocol violators, received vaccinations within acceptable day ranges, and who had serology results within RW of Days 28 to 51 Post-Toddler dose. Participants from site 0048 were excluded. Participants in the INFANRIX™ hexa group were not analyzed for this outcome measure.

    End point description
    Ab titres were measured by ELISA, excepting the Ab to varicella which was determined by glycoprotein ELISA. Percentage of participants with an Ab titre ≥255 mIU/mL for measles, ≥10 Ab units/mL for mumps, ≥10 IU/mL for rubella, and ≥5 gpELISA units/mL for varicella are reported. The estimated response rates are based on the method by Miettinen and Nurminen stratified by country. The population analyzed was all participants who met inclusion criteria, were not protocol violators, received vaccinations within acceptable day ranges, and who had serology results within RW of Days 28 to 51 Post-Toddler dose. Participants from site 0048 were excluded.

    Global safety was assessed by measuring injection-site and systemic AEs reported daily on the Vaccination Report Card (VRC) by the parent(s) or legal representative from Day 1 to Day 15 (D1-D15) after each hexavalent vaccination. Solicited injection-site and systemic AEs were reported daily from Day 1 to Day 5 (D1-D5) after each hexavalent vaccination. AEs at injection sites were always considered as vaccine-related (Injection-Site Reactions (ISRs)). The investigator assessed whether systemic AEs were related (V-related) or not to the vaccine. All AEs (related and unrelated) are reported. The population analyzed was all randomised participants who received at least 1 vaccination and who had safety follow-up.

    Percentage of participants reporting solicited systemic AE from Day 1 to Day 5 after any vaccination
    End point description
    Solicited systemic AEs were defined as crying, decreased appetite, irritability, pyrexia (rectal temperature ≥38.0°C), somnolence, and vomiting occurring from D1 to D5 after vaccination. The investigator assessed whether these systemic AEs were related or not to the vaccines. All (related and unrelated) AEs are reported. The population analyzed was all randomised participants who received at least 1 vaccination and who had safety follow-up. Participants from site 0048 were excluded.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    10 Nov 2010
    Amendment 1: The protocol template contained an error with respect to AE causality definitions in Table 3-3 of Section 3.4.5 Evaluating Adverse Events. Previously the protocol incorrectly grouped the "Possibly related" definition under the category of "No, there is not a reasonable possibility of vaccine relationship." The protocol was amended to correctly state the "Possibly related" definition under the category of "Yes, there is a reasonable possibility of vaccine relationship."
    22 Dec 2010
    Amendment 2: The primary reasons for this amendment were: 1) To revise the timing of when non-study vaccines could be received during the study; 2) the scale for grading injection-site pain and tenderness was revised to more directly reflect pain at the injection site; 3) the definition for a sub-responder to tetanus was redefined from a titer of < 0.01 IU/mL to < 0.1 IU/mL and 4) text regarding the analyses of serious adverse events within 7 and 14 days following any of doses 1 to 3 of PR5I or Control vaccines were added.
    08 Jul 2011
    Amendment 3: The primary reason for this amendment was to include administration of a second dose of ProQuad™ at the 13-month visit (Visit 6) in order to complete the series for ProQuad™, in alignment with the EU SmPC. In addition, the telephone contact at the end of the study (Visit 7) was extended to 28 days postvaccination to align with the recommended safety follow-up period for live virus vaccines.
    08 Feb 2012
    Amendment 4: The criterion for exclusion from the per-protocol immunogenicity analysis related to vaccine dosing was revised for clarity.
