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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    (1) To compare the immunogenicity of V419 with the component vaccine control(s). (2) To compare the immunogenicity of pertussis responses at one month after the Toddler dose of DAPTACEL after receiving an infant series of either 3 doses of V419 or PENTACEL
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were randomized and vaccinated in the study. Vaccinations were performed by qualified and trained study personnel. Subjects with allergy to any of the vaccine components were not vaccinated. After vaccination, subjects were also kept under clinical observation for 30 minutes to ensure their safety. Appropriate medical equipment was also available on site in case of any immediate allergic reactions.

    End point description
    Subject serum samples were collected for testing with a micrometabolic inhibition test for neutralizing antibodies to Poliovirus Type 1. Sera response or endpoint was defined as a titer ≥8. The analysis population included subjects who met the inclusion criteria, were not protocol violators, had a vaccination window of 42 to 84 days after the previous dose, and a blood draw sample window for the endpoint of 28 to 51 days after dose 3.

    Percentage of Subjects With Elevated Temperature By Severity Within Five Days Following Any Infant Dose Vaccination in the V419 and Control Groups
    End point description
    Maximum temperature (all routes) was based on actual temperatures recorded with no adjustments to the measurement route. Maximum temperature (rectal) was required of all subjects if the reading by another method was ≥38.0°C. Percentages were based on the number of subjects in the population with safety follow-up and temperature data.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 Dec 2010
    The analysis of the pertussis responses at one month post-Toddler dose of DAPTACEL™ was moved to a primary objective and hypothesis, an additional statistical criterion for the non-inferiority analysis of the anti-PRP response at one month post-third dose of PR5I or Control was added, an acceptability criterion of 90% (lower bound of the 2-sided 95% CI >90%) for the observed seroprotection rate in the PR5I group was added as a primary endpoint for Inactivated Poliovirus (Types 1, 2, and 3), name of the company was changed to Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp. throughout the document and protocol, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was changed to Prevnar13™, sample size increased to 1440 subjects, PR5I group sample size increased to 960 subjects, and changes were made throughout the protocol, including all references to Interactive Voice Response System being changed to Interactive Response Technology.
    03 Mar 2011
    Revised statistical criteria for the non-inferiority analysis of the anti-PRP response at one month post-third dose of PR5I or Control, analysis of anti-PRP GMTs was moved to a secondary endpoint, and other changes to the text regarding change in the primary and secondary endpoints and analysis methods and revisions for the purpose of clarity.
    08 Mar 2012
    Revised the primary objective and hypothesis as well as statistical criteria for the acceptability of Inactivated Poliovirus response, approved the modified manufacturing process for RECOMBIVAX HB™ by the FDA and information related to the new vaccine supply shippers.
    24 Jan 2013
    Added a new primary statistical analysis method for all GMT analyses to account for missing baseline titers, added a second Per Protocol Population (Per Protocol-Revised Window) in addition to the existing Per Protocol Original Window to account for subjects who received study vaccinations and/or blood draws outside of narrow protocol-defined visit windows, added 2 sensitivity analyses (analysis of GMT endpoints with no baseline adjustment and analysis of GMT endpoints based on data from subjects with both baseline and postvaccination titers to support the ANCOVA with missing imputation for missing baseline titers primary analysis for GMT endpoints), and added revised systemic corticosteroid use criteria to the description of protocol violations for which a subject was excluded from the Per Protocol Population.
