Filter by:This Phase 2, randomized, observer-blind clinical study is evaluating 3 different priming and booster regimens with MF59-adjuvanted H5N8 and/or H5N6 cell culture-derived influenza vaccine (aH5N8c; aH5N6c). Approximately 480 healthy adult subjects are to be randomized into 1 of 3 possible treatment groups, stratified by age group (18-64 years and ≥65 years) and by poultry worker status (yes/no). Each subject will receive a priming influenza vaccine injection on Day 1 and Day 22 and a booster vaccination on Day 202. Subjects will be followed up for approximately 6 months after the booster injection. The primary immunogenicity analysis is based on antibody responses against H5N8 and H5N6 as measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay on Day 1, Day 22, Day 29, Day 43, Day 202, Day 209 (H5N8 only), and Day 223.
Hospital staff, on the front line in the COVID-19 crisis, have many questions about the risk that they have been infected with this potentially fatal virus. These questions of course primarily concern caregivers working in sectors dedicated to COVID-19 patients, whether they are resuscitating or not, but also those in non-COVID-19 sectors, or even staff without direct contact with patients. In addition, depending on the suddenness and intensity of this "COVID-19 wave", these personnel have been more or less trained and sometimes exposed due to the dire lack of protective equipment. In some countries such as Great Britain, this has resulted in significant absenteeism, a source of deepening the shortage of caregivers. This proportion of contaminated caregivers has not been evaluated on the whole of French territory. Studies from other countries suggest figures ranging from 1.5% in China to 20% in Italy. It is therefore impossible to rely on such variable data to have a reliable estimate. Since june 2020, all staff in French health establishments could benefit a serological test. Thus, in this epidemiological study, we propose to rely on this institutional serological screening to describe the link between seroconversion of hospital staff, regional intensity of the epidemic, and sectors of activity (COVID-19 sectors, non-COVID-19 caregivers , non-COVID-19 non-caregivers.
This trial has two parts. Part A and Part B. Due to changes in the overall clinical development plan, Part B will no longer be conducted. The objectives originally described for Part B have been implemented in the ongoing development via a pivotal Phase I/II/III trial BNT162-02/C4591001 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT: 04368728). Part A is for dose ranging of four different vaccines (BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2) which will be undertaken with dose escalation and de-escalation plus the evaluation of interim dose levels. It also includes dose ranging in older participants. The vaccines BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2 will be administered using a Prime/Boost (P/B) regimen. The vaccine BNT162c2 will also be administered using a Single dose (SD) regimen. Three additional cohorts aged from 18 to 85 years receiving BNT162b2 only. BNT162b2 has entered a Phase II/III evaluation of efficacy, with the intent to support an application for marketing authorization. The dosing regimen under investigation is two BNT162b2 doses given ~21 d apart.
