Assessing Immunogenicity of Intramuscular Sabin Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine and Non-inferiority of Intradermal Fractional Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine

March 17, 2025 updated by: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
This is an open label and off label, phase IV, randomized clinical trial that will compare the immune response among infants that receive either two full doses of Sabin IPV intramuscularly or two fractional (1/5) dose of Sabin IPV intradermally at 14 weeks and 9 months of age from two different manufacturers.

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

Detailed Description

After OPV cessation, which is expected within a year of polio eradication certification, IPV will be the only polio vaccine used in essential immunization programs. SAGE has recommended a two-dose intramuscular IPV or intradermal fractional IPV (fIPV) schedule after OPV cessation. While it is expected that there shall be sufficient IPV available - in large part because of several manufacturers establishing production of IPV using Sabin strains (sIPV) - it is dependent on these manufacturers being able to meet promised product development and manufacturing timeline and meet WHO prequalification. It is likely that countries that have introduced intradermal fIPV pre-eradication will continue to use intradermal fIPV post-eradication. Therefore, it is important to generate evidence on immunogenicity of intradermal fractional sIPV in addition to intramuscular sIPV for the schedule recommended by SAGE.

This clinical trial assesses and compares the immunogenicity of full and fractional (1/5) dose Sabin IPV given at 14 weeks and 9 months of age from two different manufacturers. Healthy infants 6 weeks of age will be enrolled in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and randomized to one of four arms:

A. IMBCAMS full dose sIPV at 14 weeks and 9 months B. IMBCAMS fractional dose sIPV at 14 weeks and 9 months C. BIBP full dose sIPV at 14 weeks and 9 months D. BIBP fractional dose sIPV at 14 weeks and 9 months

Participants will be followed until 10 months of age through clinic visits. Blood samples will be collected for measuring immune response.

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

1 month to 1 month (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Healthy infants 6 weeks of age (range: 42-48 days).
  • Parents that consent for participation in the full length of the study (i.e., 34 weeks).
  • Parents that are able to understand and comply with planned study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • A diagnosis or suspicion of immunodeficiency disorder either in the infant or in an immediate family member.
  • A diagnosis or suspicion of bleeding disorder that would contraindicate parenteral administration of sIPV or collection of blood by venepuncture.
  • Acute diarrhoea, infection or illness at the time of enrollment (6 weeks of age) that would require infant's admission to a hospital.
  • Acute vomiting and intolerance to liquids within 24 hours before the enrollment visit (6 weeks of age).
  • Evidence of a chronic medical condition identified by a study medical officer during physical exam.
  • Receipt of any polio vaccine (OPV or IPV) before enrollment based upon documentation or parental recall.
  • Known allergy/sensitivity or reaction to polio vaccine, or its contents.
  • Infants from multiple births. Infants from multiple births will be excluded because the infant(s) who is/are not enrolled would likely receive OPV through routine immunization and transmit vaccine poliovirus to the enrolled infant.
  • Infants from premature births (<37 weeks of gestation).

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
Vaccine response
Time Frame: Measured 4 weeks after administration of study vaccine
Dichotomous (yes/no) variable defined as participants who are either seronegative (<1:8 titers) at baseline who become seropositive (≥1:8) after vaccination (seroconversion) or participants who demonstrate a four-fold rise in titers after vaccination between two specimens, e.g. a change from 1:8 to 1:32, after adjusting for expected decay in maternal antibodies. Antibody titers at 14 weeks of age will be the starting point for the expected decline in maternal antibodies, assuming at half-life of 28 days.
Measured 4 weeks after administration of study vaccine

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
Reciprocal antibody titers
Time Frame: Measured 4 weeks after administration of study Vaccine
Variable of the observed reciprocal antibody titer results.
Measured 4 weeks after administration of study Vaccine
Priming
Time Frame: Measured 7 days after challenge dose (e.g. 9 months + 7 days)
Dichotomous (yes/no) variable defined as participants who are either seronegative (<1:8 titers) at baseline who become seropositive (≥1:8) after vaccination (seroconversion) or participants who demonstrate a four-fold rise in titers after vaccination between two specimens, e.g. a change from 1:8 to 1:32, after adjusting for expected decay in maternal antibodies. Antibody titers at 14 weeks of age will be the starting point for the expected decline in maternal antibodies, assuming at half-life of 28 days.
