Dengue Clinical Trial - Safety of & Immune Response to a Dengue Virus

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Dengue fever, which is caused by dengue viruses, is a major health problem in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response to the dengue vaccine DEN4delta30-4995 in healthy adults.

Clinical Trial Description

Dengue viruses account for more than 50 million cases of dengue fever and a half million cases of the more severe disease, dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome. Infection with dengue viruses is the leading cause of hospitalization and death in children in at least eight Asian countries. The goal of producing a vaccine against dengue fever is to induce a long-lived antibody response against all four dengue serotypes. The rDEN4delta30-4995 vaccine candidate is a live attenuated recombinant virus derived from rDEN4delta30 for protection against dengue virus serotype 4. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of rDEN4delta30-4995 in healthy adults.

This study will last 180 days (6 months). Participants in Cohort 1 will be randomly assigned to receive the highest dose of rDEN4delta30 or placebo at study entry. Participants in Cohort 2 will be randomly assigned to receive a lower dose of rDEN4delta30 or placebo. Participants in Cohort 3 will be randomly assigned to receive the lowest dose of rDEN4delta30 or placebo. Cohorts 2 and 3 will begin after a safety review of all participants in the previous cohort.

After initial vaccination, participants in Cohort 1 will be followed every other day for the first 16 days of the study, monitoring their temperature three times a day through Day 16 and recording these measurements in a diary. After Day 16, study visits will occur on Days 21, 28, 42, and 180 and will include a physical exam and blood collection. Some participants will also be asked to undergo a skin biopsy or additional blood collection at selected visits. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
