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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    •To compare the incidence of HZ recurrence in the HZ/su group to the placebo group. A formal non-inferiority analysis with non-inferiority margin of 5 was performed. Criterion: The objective was to be met if the upper limit (UL) of the 95% CI of the ratio of the incidence of HZ recurrence (HZ/su versus placebo) was below (<) 5.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Vaccine administration was to be preceded by a review of the participants’ medical history (especially with regard to previous vaccination and possible occurrence of undesirable events) and a medical history driven clinical examination. Following the administration of the vaccine, participants were observed for at least 30 minutes with appropriate medical treatment and supervision readily available in case of an anaphylactic reaction. Blood samples were obtained by a trained professional and medical assistance was available.

    Primary: Incidence rate of confirmed Herpes Zoster (HZ) cases

    End point title
    Incidence rate of confirmed Herpes Zoster (HZ) cases
    End point description
    A suspected case of HZ is defined as a new unilateral rash accompanied by pain (broadly defined to include allodynia, pruritus or other sensations) and no alternative diagnosis. A suspected case of HZ was confirmed by an algorithm that included Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and the HZ Ascertainment Committee (HZAC) determination. The incidence rate (n/T) of confirmed HZ cases, expressed in terms of 1000 person-years rate, was calculated as the number of participants reporting at least one confirmed HZ case (n) in a group, over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 1000. The analysis was performed on the modified Exposed Set (mES), which excluded participants from the Exposed Set who were not administered 2 doses of the study treatment per protocol, or who developed a confirmed case of HZ prior to 30 days after the second vaccination.

    Duration is the number of days in which a participant experienced the symptom within the 7-day solicited follow-up period. Assessed solicited administration site events included erythema, pain, pruritus and swelling at the injection site. The analysis was performed on the Exposed Set, which included all participants with at least one dose of the study treatment administered, with solicited diary data available after the corresponding vaccination and who experienced the specified solicited administration site event within 7 days following the respective study treatment dose. Here, 'N' = participants with available data for each specified category. '99999' was entered as a placeholder value in those instances where the median and inter-quartile range (Q1-Q3) could not be calculated as there were 0 participants analyzed for that specific event.

    Duration in days of solicited systemic events
    End point description
    Duration is the number of days in which a participant experienced the symptom within the 7-day solicited follow-up period. Assessed solicited systemic events included fatigue, fever (defined as axillary temperature >=38.0°C/100.4°F), gastrointestinal symptoms (GS), headache, malaise, myalgia and shivering. The analysis was performed on the Exposed Set, which included all participants with at least one dose of the study treatment administered, with solicited diary data available after the corresponding vaccination and who experienced the specified solicited systemic event within 7 days following the respective study treatment dose. Here, 'N' = participants with available data for each specified category.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Mar 2019
    This protocol amendment incorporated feedback from regulatory authorities with the following changes: • The primary objective has been revised to a formal non-inferiority analysis with revised success criterion for non-inferiority. Consequently, the sample size was adjusted from 986 to 1426 subjects. • To capture PHN episodes developing after Day HZ-92 according to the protocol definition, the time frame for completing the Zoster Brief Pain Inventory (ZBPI) questionnaire has been clarified. Subjects with suspected herpes zoster (HZ) were required to complete the questionnaire until a 4-week pain-free period was documented. This amendment clarifies procedures for monitoring PHN in subjects who had ongoing symptoms beyond Day HZ-92. • In the tabulation of safety analyses, the collection period for fatal serious adverse events (SAEs) was updated. • The timeframe for primary endpoint (confirmed HZ episodes) was corrected to 30 days post second vaccination instead of 30 days post last vaccination. • Grading of fever was added. • The definition of modified exposed set (mES) was clarified. • “Emergency Unblinding” was added as per requirement of new process for observer-blind studies.
    14 Apr 2020
    This protocol amendment outlined measures that may be applicable during special circumstances (e.g., during COVID-19 pandemic). The purpose of the amendment was to introduce measures that may have allowed protection of subject’s welfare and safety, as well as maintaining the integrity of the study.
