A Follow-up Study to Assess Long-term Immunogenicity and Safety of NicVAX/Placebo as an Aid to Smoking Cessation

May 10, 2012 updated by: Nabi Biopharmaceuticals

A Phase 3, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Follow-up Study to Assess Long-term Immunogenicity and Safety of NicVAX™ as an Aid to Smoking Cessation

The purpose of the study is to obtain two year follow up data for subjects that received six vaccinations of NicVAX in prior phase III studies. No treatment will be administered. Anti-nicotine antibody levels and safety data will be collected.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will follow subjects that participated in the NicVAX phase III studies for a second year. These predecessor studies, Nabi-4514 (NCT#00836199) and Nabi-4515 (NCT#01102114) evaluate the efficacy and safety of 6 vaccinations of NicVAX or placebo as an aid to smoking cessation. The two phase III studies are one year in duration, and subjects who complete these studies are eligible to enroll in Nabi-4522. As the phase III studies are ongoing, subject assignment to NicVAX or placebo will remain masked. No intervention will be administered in Nabi-4522. Subjects will be followed for immunogenicity (anti-nicotine antibody level)and for safety.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects will be invited into this study following their participation in Nabi-4514 or Nabi-4515.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who agree and sign consent to participate in this follow-up study.
  • Subjects randomized and completed month 12 of the Nabi-4514 or Nabi-4515 study.
  • Subjects who have received a total of 6 injections in Nabi-4514 or Nabi-4515.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Anticipated inability to follow the study protocol through-out the study period.
  • Known history of any condition or factor judged by the investigator to preclude participation in the study or which might hinder compliance or failure to sign informed consent.
  • Subjects who intend to receive, or who are receiving an Investigational New Drug/Device during the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Antibody Levels
Time Frame: 24 months after the initial injection
Analyze blood samples to determine nicotine antibody levels.
24 months after the initial injection

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety as measured by serious adverse events

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
