Immunogenicity and Safety of a Tetanus-diphtheria Vaccine and a 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine

May 29, 2018 updated by: Joon Young Song, Korea University Guro Hospital

Immunogenicity and Safety of a Tetanus-diphtheria Vaccine and a 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine After Concomitant Vaccination in ≥50-year-old Adults

When two or more vaccines are administered concurrently, there is a concern on vaccine interaction, which can either enhance or suppress immune response to vaccine antigens. This study is designed to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of tetanus-diphtheria (Td) and pneumococcal vaccines after concomitant administration in adults aged 50 years and older.

Study Overview

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

Vaccination would be the most effective strategy to prevent diverse infectious diseases. Actually, The World Health Organization (WHO) estimate that vaccination averts 2-3 million deaths per year. In adults, several vaccines are recommended based on age and medical conditions if they have not receive vaccination before, and lack evidence of past infection: influenza, measles-mumps-rubella (MMR), varicella, human papilloma virus (HPV), tetanus-diphtheria (Td), pneumococcl vaccines and etc. In particular, when the patient visits a vaccination clinic, Td and the pneumococcal vaccines are commonly administered at the same time. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Td vaccine and PCV13 after concomitant administration in adults aged 50 years. This single-center, open label randomized trial was conducted (Clinical Trial Number - NCT02215863) at Korea University Guro Hospital from November 2013 to April 2016. Adults ≥50 years of age were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive Td + PCV13 (Group 1), PCV13 alone (Group 2) or Td alone (Group 3).

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

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
Tetanus antibody titers at day 28 post-vaccination
Time Frame: 4 weeks after vaccination
IgG antibody titers by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Seroprotection rate: percentage of subjects with a post-vaccination antibody levels ≥0.1 IU/mL
4 weeks after vaccination
Diphtheria antibody titers at day 28 post-vaccination
Time Frame: 4 weeks after vaccination
IgG antibody titers by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
4 weeks after vaccination
Tetanus seroprotection rate at day 28 post-vaccination
Time Frame: 4 weeks after vaccination
Proportion of IgG antibody titers ≥0.1 IU/mL
4 weeks after vaccination
Diphtheria seroprotection rate at day 28 post-vaccination
Time Frame: 4 weeks after vaccination
Proportion of IgG antibody titers ≥0.1 IU/mL
4 weeks after vaccination

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
Opsonophagocytic assay (OPA) titers for PCV13
Time Frame: 4 weeks after vaccination
Four capsule serotypes: 1, 5, 18C and 19A
4 weeks after vaccination

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Frequency and duration of local and systemic adverse events
Time Frame: During 4 weeks after vaccination
