Post-licensure Department of Defense (DOD) Screening Accuracy Study in Military Personnel

March 15, 2024 updated by: Emergent BioSolutions

A Phase IV Post-licensure DOD Screening Accuracy Study in Military Personnel

This is a retrospective study of the Department of Defense (DoD) Smallpox Screening Form 600s (SF600s) generated during screening of service members for possible immunization with the ACAM2000® smallpox vaccine.

Primary Objective:

  • To evaluate the accuracy of the DoD smallpox vaccination screening process in military personnel.

Secondary Objective:

  • To describe the number of subjects who are excluded from vaccination, stratified by the pre-defined categories for exclusion (separately for the Screened and Evaluable Populations).

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

Detailed Description

Please note that we elected to post this study on the registry (clinicaltrials.gov) in the interests of transparency and because the study represented a post-licensure commitment to FDA for ACAM2000® smallpox vaccine. However, this study was not a clinical trial and did not involve the administration of any vaccine product nor the collection of any product performance or adverse event data. Rather, the purpose of the study was to determine the success rate for proper completion and use of Department of Defense (DoD) Screening Form 600s (SF600s). The SF600 is a form required to be completed prior to smallpox vaccination of DoD staff and is used to guide decision-making by DoD vaccination staff regarding offering, postponing, or denying vaccination. The study evaluated both the extent to which the SF600s were completed correctly and the extent to which they were correctly used to guide vaccination decision-making.

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

13 years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

This study involves a review of DoD Smallpox Screening Form 600 (2 part format) that had been redacted of all personal information by the DoD. No individuals were involved in this study."

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Military personnel ≥17 years of age.
  • Completion of the DoD Smallpox Screening Form 600 (2-part format).

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
The percent of SF600 forms that did not clearly support the subsequent decision to vaccinate.
Time Frame: 1 year post-screening
ACAM2000® Screening Accuracy Review Committee (SARC) consensus that SF600 form did not support the decision to vaccinate divided by all subjects in the Evaluable Population.
1 year post-screening

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

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.
September 1, 2009

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.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
