Detailed Description

This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled,phase Ⅱb clinical trial in children and adolescents aged 3-17 years. The experimental vaccine and placebo were both manufactured by Sinovac Life Sciences Co. , Ltd. A total of 500 subjects will be enrolled, including 100 children aged 3-5 years, 200 children aged 6-11 years and 200 adolescents aged 12-17 years. Each age group will be randomly divided into two groups in a 3:1 ratio and received two doses of experimental vaccine or placebo on on day 0 and day 28.

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.

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.

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
Safety index-incidence of adverse reactions
Time Frame: Day 0-28 after each dose
Incidence rate of adverse reactions occured from the beginning of the vaccination to 28 days after the second dose.
Day 0-28 after each dose

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 index-incidence of adverse reactions
Time Frame: Day 0-7 after each dose vaccination
Incidence rate of adverse reactions within 7 days after each dose
Day 0-7 after each dose vaccination
