May 8, 2026 updated by: Emergent BioSolutions

Clinical Outcomes of VIGIV Treatment of Smallpox Vaccination Complications or Vaccinia Infection

This is a post-marketing study to verify the clinical benefits of VIGIV [CNJ-016, Vaccinia Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), sterile solution] in the resolution of complications resulting from smallpox vaccination in eligible patients treated with VIGIV.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Enrolling by invitation

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 is an open-label Phase 4 study designed to collect additional data to assess the safety and efficacy of VIGIV [CNJ-016, Vaccinia Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), sterile solution] in the first 100 consented patients treated with VIGIV.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

Individuals who are administered VIGIV distributed from the US Strategic National Stockpile for the treatment of complications due to vaccinia vaccination or vaccinia infections.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects treated with VIGIV deployed from the US Strategic National Stockpile for any of the following conditions:

  • Eczema vaccinatum.
  • Progressive vaccinia.
  • Severe generalized vaccinia.
  • Vaccinia infections in individuals who have skin conditions such as burns, impetigo, varicella-zoster, or poison ivy, or in individuals who have eczematous skin lesions because of either the activity or extensiveness of such lesions.
  • Aberrant infections induced by vaccinia virus that include its accidental implantation in eyes (except in cases of isolated keratitis), mouth, or other areas where vaccinia infection would constitute a special hazard.
  • Informed consent voluntarily signed by subject, legal guardian or representative to participate in the study. For minors, the informed consent form must be signed by a legally acceptable representative and when appropriate, informed consent/assent must also be obtained from the minor.

Exclusion Criteria:

None.

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
Resolution of vaccinia infection complications
Time Frame: At hospital discharge (if not fully resolved at discharge then 1 month or 6 months as applicable)
Change in number, size, type, and percentage of body affected by lesions following treatment.
At hospital discharge (if not fully resolved at discharge then 1 month or 6 months as applicable)

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
Vaccinia antibody levels
Time Frame: Day 5 post VIGIV-infusion
Measurement of serum concentration of anti-vaccinia antibodies.
Day 5 post VIGIV-infusion

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
August 1, 2007

Primary Completion (Estimated)

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.
