June 1, 2015 updated by: PATH

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of the Clinical Efficacy of Trivalent Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV) Among Children in Senegal

This study will provide the Senegal Ministry of Health with data on the clinical efficacy of the Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV). This data will inform future policy considerations for influenza vaccine.

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 is a double-blind, individual-randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical efficacy trial among healthy children aged 24 through 71 months in the Niakhar area of Senegal. A total of 1,761 healthy children will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio of LAIV to placebo.

For evaluation of efficacy, passive and active surveillance will be conducted weekly throughout the study to identify outcomes among vaccinated subjects. Children meeting the protocol-defined clinical case definition will have a nasal swab and throat swab specimen collected for testing by rRT-PCR for evidence of influenza virus infection.

100 of the 1,761 participants were also included in a substudy designed to evaluate virologic evidence of LAIV replication. As such, nasal and throat swab specimens were collected on day 0 (prior to vaccination), as well as on post-vaccination days 2, and 4 from all subjects included in the substudy. These specimens will be tested for presence of wild-type and vaccine virus. Additionally, a more detailed assessment of vaccine reactogenicity will be made among these children by actively collecting solicited and unsolicited reactions at each study visit for the week post vaccination (days 2 and 4).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

2 years to 5 years (CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Healthy male or female child at least 24 months of age and no older than 71 months of age at the time of study vaccination.
  • A child whose parent or guardian's primary residence, at the time of study vaccinations, is within the Niakhar DSS and who intends to be present in the area for the duration of the trial.
  • A child whose parent or legal guardian is willing to provide written informed consent prior to the participant's study vaccination

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Serious, active, medical condition, including: chronic disease of any body system,chronic infections such as tuberculosis, genetic disorders, such as Down's syndrome or other cytogenetic disorder, known or suspected disease of the immune system of any kind.
  • History of documented hypersensitivity to eggs or other components of the vaccine (including gelatin, sorbitol, lactalbumin and chicken protein), or with life-threatening reactions to previous influenza vaccinations.
  • History of Guillain-Barré syndrome.
  • Receipt of immunosuppressive agents, including systemic corticosteroids, during the month before planned study vaccination.

  • History of any severe allergic reaction with generalized urticarial, angioedema, or anaphylaxis.
  • Receipt of an influenza vaccine within the past 12 months.
  • Has any condition determined by investigator as likely to interfere with evaluation of the vaccine or be a significant potential health risk to the child or make it unlikely that the child would complete the study.

Temporary Contraindications:

  • Acute illness accompanied by a body temperature of 37.5°C or above (axillary measurement) within 14 days of enrollment visit.
  • Any acute respiratory infection within 14 days of enrollment visit.
  • Any illness accompanied by active wheezing within 14 days of enrollment visit.
