Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind, phase 3 study to evaluate the Efficacy,Safety, and Immunogenicity of ROTAVAC 5D, a live attenuated rotavirus vaccine in healthy infants aged 6-8 weeks. A total of 5800 healthy Chilean infants will be recruited in this study and randomized to receive either vaccine or placebo in 1:1 ratio. Among these participants 300 will be categorized to immunogenicity cohort, 150 from each group, and blood samples will be collected to assess the immune response.
This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Inactivated Rotavirus Vaccine (IRV) in children (aged 2-71 months). Primary immunogenicity endpoints in two age groups are the anti-RV neutralizing antibody geometric mean titers (GMTs) 28 days after the final dose, anti-RV neutralizing antibody geometric mean increase (GMI), and seroconversion rates between baseline and 28 days after the final dose. The secondary safety endpoints are the number of adverse events/reactions within 30 minutes after each dose, the number of solicited adverse events/reactions within 7 days after each dose, the number of unsolicited adverse events/reactions within 28/30 days after each dose, and the number of serious adverse events (SAE) between the first dose up to 6 months after the final dose. The exploratory endpoints are the anti-RV IgG and IgA antibody GMT 28 days after the final dose, GMI and seroconversion rates of anti-RV IgG and IgA antibody between baseline and 28 days after the final dose, GMT and seropositive rates of anti-RV neutralizing antibody, IgG antibody and IgA antibody 90, 180, and 360 days after the final dose. Besides, as the exploratory endpoint, the GMT, GMI, and seroconversion rates of cross-neutralizing antibodies against G3 and G9 type of RV, gene transcription differences in peripheral blood mononuclear cells on Day 0 and 28 after the final dose will be assessed.
The trial will be a multinational, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, endpoint driven, group-sequential, active comparator-controlled study, in which participating infants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either: 1) 90 µg of the TV P2-VP8 vaccine IM plus oral placebo, or 2) Rotarix® per os (PO) plus IM placebo. Participants will receive three doses of TV P2-VP8/placebo IM and two doses of Rotarix®/placebo PO at monthly intervals starting at ≥6 to <8 weeks of age, administered concomitantly with EPI/UIP vaccines. To maintain the blind, infants allocated to the TV P2-VP8 vaccine arm will receive both TV P2-VP8 IM as well as oral placebo vaccine, and infants allocated to receive Rotarix® will receive both Rotarix® PO and placebo IM. Active surveillance for episodes of gastroenteritis (GE) will be conducted throughout the study, through weekly contact with participants' parents. Unsolicited AEs grade ≥ 2 through 28 days after the last study vaccination will be recorded in the study database, as will data for SAEs (including intussusception) throughout the study.
This is a controlled cohort study to assess the effect of improved sanitation on oral rotavirus vaccine performance in low-income urban neighbourhoods of Maputo, Mozambique. The specific hypotheses are that: (1) access to improved sanitation is associated with increased oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity; (2) enteric infection concurrent to oral rotavirus vaccination is associated with reduced oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity; and (3) Environmental Enteric Dysfunction is associated with reduced oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity. Pregnant women will be enrolled from the intervention and control arms of a previous sanitation trial (NCT02362932) post-intervention and will be enrolled at no later than eight months' gestation and then followed to 4 months of age of the infant. Blood samples and faeces will be taken from the infant at the time of administration of the first dose of the oral rotavirus vaccine and four weeks after the second dose of the vaccine. The primary outcome of interest in the study is oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity among participating vaccinated infants. Seroconversion is defined as a ≥ fourfold rise in serum anti-rotavirus IgA titers between first dose of oral RV vaccine and 4 weeks (+/- 1 week) after second dose of oral RV vaccine. Enteric infections are defined as the presence of ≥ 1 of the following enteric infections in stool: adenovirus 40/41, rotavirus A, norovirus GI/GII, Salmonella spp. (including serovars Typhi and Paratyphi), Campylobacter spp. (C. jejuni, C. coli, C. lari), Shigella spp. (S. boydii, S. sonnei, S. flexneri, S. dysenteriae), Clostridium difficile Toxin A/B, enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) LT/ST, E. coli O157, Shiga-like toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) stx1/stx2, Yersinia enterocolitica, Vibrio cholerae, Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium spp. (C. parvum, C. hominis). Environmental Enteric Dysfunction is measured via a combined disease activity score including faecal markers of intestinal inflammation and permeability: neopterin, α-1 antitrypsin, and myeloperoxidase in stool.
The purpose of this study is to monitor diarrheal disease and observe changes after the introduction of the rota vaccine.
