Clinical Trial Summary

This is a multicenter, randomized, observer-blinded, controlled, immune equivalence study of a multi-dose (MD) formulation with 2PE preservative of SK bioscience Vi-DT compared to single dose (SD) formulation without preservative of SK bioscience Vi-DT in participant (6 months - 45 years) including safety population. The study objectives are as follows: - Primary objective. Demonstrate the immune equivalence as measured by anti-Vi IgG Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of multi dose formulation against single dose formulation of Vi-DT (18-45 year age stratum), at 4 weeks after a single dose. - Secondary objective 1. Demonstrate the immune equivalence as measured by seroconversion rates of anti-Vi IgG antibody titres of multi dose formulation against single dose formulation of Vi-DT vaccine (18-45 year age stratum) at 4 weeks after a single dose. - Secondary objective 2. Describe safety profile in all age strata combined (age 6 months - 45 years old) and in each age stratum, at 4 weeks after a single dose of SD/MD formulation/control (Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine). There are total 5 scheduled visits as follows: - Visit 1(D-7 to 0): Screening - Visit 2(D0): Enrollment, vaccination, safety follow-up and blood collection for immunogenicity assessment (only for subjects 18 years old and above) - Visit 3(D7): Safety follow-up - Visit 4(D28): Safety follow-up and blood collection for immunogenicity assessment (only for subjects 18 years old and above) - V5(D168): Safety follow-up

Description:

The vaccines will be administered to 1,500 healthy participants of 6 months to 45 years of age and followed up for 24 weeks after the injection for safety. Adult participants (N=500) will be followed up for immunogenicity at 4 weeks and all participants till 24 weeks for safety post single dose of either MD & SD formulations. 300 healthy participants will be given control vaccine (locally available licensed Meningococcal conjugate vaccine) to check the background safety events. The primary objective is to demonstrate the equivalence of immunogenicity as measured by anti-Vi IgG GMT titer at 4 weeks after a single dose of MD/SD formulation in adults. The secondary objective is to demonstrate the equivalence of immunogenicity in terms of seroconversion rates as measured by anti-Vi IgG ELISA antibody titers, at 4 weeks after a single dose of MD/SD formulation in adults. A descriptive evaluation of safety at 4 and 24 weeks post single dose of (SD/MD/Meningococcal vaccine), will be performed. The Vi-DT vaccine from both MD & SD formulations will be administered as a single dose of 25 µg/0.5 mL. Eligible participants enrolled into the study will be randomized into one of the three study groups within each age stratum of 6 months to less than 2 years, 2 to less than 18 years, and 18 to 45 years. Participants will be observed at the study site for 30 minutes after vaccination for safety assessment. Solicited adverse events will be recorded on a diary card during 7 days after vaccination. Unsolicited adverse events will be recorded during the 4 weeks after vaccination. Serious adverse events will be recorded during the entire study period. With the exception of designated study site personnel responsible for vaccine administration, site investigators, study nurse, and those assessing clinical outcomes, and data analysts will be blinded to vaccine allocation until data base lock for the final analysis. Blood samples will be collected at baseline prior to vaccination and at 4 weeks post vaccination from adults (18-45 years) for immunogenicity assessment

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue

Primary	Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) of anti-Vi IgG	If the 95% confidence interval of the ratio of GMT estimate of Vi-DT(MD) over GMT of Vi-DT(SD) is located within the bounds of 0.67to 1.5, then Vi-DT (MD) is equivalent to Vi-DT (SD) in terms of GMT of anti-Vi IgG with significance level of 0.05.	At 4 weeks (28 days) post vaccination of Vi-DT (MD/SD)
