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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    To assess the immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine when co-administered with DTPw-HBV/Hib and OPV vaccines in children with sickle cell disease, one month after completion of the 3-dose primary vaccination course before 6 months of age
    Protection of trial subjects
    All subjects were supervised after vaccination/product administration with appropriate medical treatment readily available. Vaccines were administered by qualified and trained personnel. Vaccines were administered only to eligible subjects that had no contraindications to any components of the vaccines.

    End point title
    Concentrations of antibodies against Vaccine Pneumococcal Serotypes - <6S and <6NS groups. [1] [2]
    End point description
    Antibodies assessed for this outcome measure were those against the vaccine 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). Antibody concentrations were measured by 22F enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), in micrograms per milliliter (µg/mL). The seropositivity cut-off of the assay was an antibody concentration ≥ 0.05 µg/mL. Antibody concentrations < 0.05 µg/mL were given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off for the purpose of GMC calculation. Primary outcome variables correspond to Results at Month 3.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The analysis of the primary endpoint was descriptive i.e. no statistical hypothesis test was performed.
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Results are provided only for 2 groups as timeframe has been defined specifically for those 2 groups.

    Concentrations of Antibodies against Protein D (PD) - <6S and <6NS groups. [3] [4]
    End point description
    Anti-protein D (Anti-PD) antibody concentrations by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) were calculated, expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) in ELISA unit per milli-liter (EL.U/mL) and tabulated. The seropositivity cut-off for the assay was ≥ 100 EL.U/mL. Antibody concentrations < 100 EL.U/mL were given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off for the purpose of GMC calculation. Primary outcome variables correspond to Results at Month 3.

    Notes
    [3] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The analysis of the primary endpoint was descriptive i.e. no statistical hypothesis test was performed.
    [4] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Results are provided only for 2 groups as timeframe has been defined specifically for those 2 groups.

    Concentrations of antibodies against Cross-reactive Pneumococcal Serotype 6A and 19A - <6S and <6NS groups. [15]
    End point description
    Antibodies assessed for this outcome measure were those against the cross-reactive pneumococcal serotype 6A (ANTI-6A) and 19A (ANTI-19A). Antibody concentrations were measured by 22F enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), in micrograms per milliliter (µg/mL). The seropositivity cut-off of the assay was an antibody concentration ≥ 0.05 µg/mL. Antibody concentrations < 0.05 µg/mL were given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off for the purpose of GMC calculation.

    Concentrations of antibodies against Cross-reactive Pneumococcal Serotype 6A and 19A – 7-11S and 7-11NS groups. [17]
    End point description
    Antibodies assessed for this outcome measure were those against the cross-reactive pneumococcal serotype 6A (ANTI-6A) and 19A (ANTI-19A). Antibody concentrations were measured by 22F enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), expressed as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), in micrograms per milliliter (µg/mL). The seropositivity cut-off of the assay was an antibody concentration ≥ 0.05 µg/mL. Antibody concentrations < 0.05 µg/mL were given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off for the purpose of GMC calculation.

The seropositivity cut-off for the assay was ≥ 100 EL.U/mL. Antibody concentrations < 100 EL.U/mL were given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off for the purpose of GMC calculation.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Apr 2010
    The oral polio vaccine was to be provided in multidose vials Changes in the randomization of treatment Inconsistencies regarding the age for booster vaccination in the 7-11 month groups Changes in the priority ranking of immunological assays Changes in the definition of the Epochs Update of Rationale of the study
    03 Sep 2010
    •For clarification, the inclusion criteria for children with sickle cell disease have been further detailed. •An additional blood sample for SCD testing was planned to be taken at the pre-vaccination timepoint from subjects aged 7-11 and 12-23 months without hemoglobin status confirmed by electrophoresis available. •Presentation of oral polio vaccine that was to be used has changed: 10- or 20-dose vials were used. In addition, the use of one 10- or 20-dose vial to vaccinate up to 10 or 20 subjects, respectively, on the same day was allowed. •The immunogenicity objectives related to the co-administered OPV have been removed since there are no plans to test poliovirus immune response. •The contact details for the emergency code break have been clarified.
    08 May 2012
    The main changes and their rationale are the following: •Additional information was given about administration of vaccines through the local EPI program. •Extension of the recruitment period due to a lower enrolment rate than expected. •Additional exclusion criterion for children of the <6S and <6NS groups to clarify differences between groups with regard to administration of vaccines included in the EPI program either as study vaccines or outside the study. •Additional exclusion criterion for all groups, i.e. exclusion of subjects being heterozygous or carriers of abnormal haemoglobin (e.g. haemoglobin S, haemoglobin C) who are not considered to have SCD, to avoid potential bias and to keep homogeneity of the examined groups.
    09 Apr 2013
    In the past few months, GSK Biologicals has been investigating the quality of some serology assays used in clinical studies, including the Streptococcus pneumonia opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) assay used in the present trial. This protocol amendment reflected the fact that delays in the availability of the assay results would lead to changes in the analysis plan. Therefore, the sequence of analysis has been modified to perform study analysis in one final step on all immunogenicity and safety data obtained up to one month after administration of the last dose of study vaccine for all study groups. The results of this final analysis were presented in a final clinical study report.
