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
    The purpose of this study is to 1) evaluate the safety and tolerability of V114 and 2) to compare the immune responses of the 15 serotypes contained in V114 with V114 versus Prevnar 13™. The primary hypotheses are that 1) V114 is noninferior to Prevnar 13™ as measured by the serotype specific opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) for 13 shared serotypes at 30 days postvaccination and that 2) V114 is superior to Prevnar 13™ as measured by serotype-specific OPA GMTs for 2 unique serotypes in V114 at 30 days postvaccination.
    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.

    A serious adverse event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongs existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is another important medical event. SAEs that are reported to be at least possibly related by the investigator to study vaccination will be summarized.

    Geometric Mean Titer of Serotype-specific Opsonophagocytic Activity at Day 30
    End point description
    Serotype-specific opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) (estimated) and GMT ratios with 95% CIs were calculated using a constrained longitudinal data analysis (cLDA) model utilizing data from both vaccination groups. Per the statistical analysis plan, the only CIs calculated were the between-group CIs (for the GMT ratios); within-group CIs were not calculated. OPA for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) were determined using a multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay (MOPA). The measure type of “number” presented in the data table below for serotype-specific OPA titer is the geometric mean. The analysis population included all randomized participants without protocol deviations, such as failure to receive study vaccine or receipt of prohibited medication prior to study vaccination.

    Percentage of Participants with ≥4-Fold Rise in Serotype-specific OPA for 2 Unique V114 Serotypes
    End point description
    Activity for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 was determined using a multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay (MOPA). The percentage of participants who had ≥4-fold rise in OPA titers were calculated from baseline (Day 1) to 30 days postvaccination (Day 30) for OPA responses for the 2 unique serotypes in V114. The observed response percentage (m/n) included: m=the number of participants with the indicated response divided by n=the number of participants contributing to the analysis. Per the statistical analysis plan, the only CIs calculated were the between-group CIs (for the percentage point difference); within-group CIs were not calculated.

Per the statistical analysis plan, the only CIs calculated were the between-group CIs (for the GMT ratios); within-group CIs were not calculated. OPA for serotype 3 contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 was determined using a MOPA. The measure type of “number” presented in the data table below for serotype-specific OPA titer is the geometric mean.

    Geometric Mean Fold Rise in Serotype-specific OPA
    End point description
    Activity for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) was determined using a Multiplexed Opsonophagocytic Assay. Geometric mean fold rise (GMFR) is defined as the geometric mean of the ratio of concentration at Day 30 after vaccination divided by concentration at baseline. The analysis population included all randomized participants without protocol deviations, such as failure to receive study vaccine or receipt of prohibited medication prior to study vaccination.

    Percentage of Participants with ≥4-Fold Rise in Serotype-specific IgG Concentration
    End point description
    Activity for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) will be determined using an electrochemiluminescence assay. The percentage of participants who had ≥4-fold rise in IgG concentration are calculated from baseline to postvaccination. The analysis population included all randomized participants without protocol deviations, such as failure to receive study vaccine or receipt of prohibited medication prior to study vaccination.
