Immunogenicity and Safety of Fractional Doses of IPV Intradermally vs Full Doses Intramuscularly

January 20, 2014 updated by: Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company

Immunogenicity and Safety of Fractional Doses of Sanofi Pasteur's Inactivated Poliomyelitis Vaccine Administered Intradermally vs Full Doses of Inactivated Poliomyelitis Vaccine Administered Intramuscularly in Healthy Philippines Infants

The present study intends to investigate the use of fractional doses of sanofi pasteur's IMOVAX Polio injected intradermally. The primary objective will be to demonstrate the non-inferiority of fractional doses of IMOVAX Polio administered intradermally versus full doses of IMOVAX Polio administered intramuscularly, in terms of seroprotection rates (polio types 1, 2 and 3) one month after the three-dose primary vaccination administered at 6-10-14 weeks of age.

  • Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, immunosuppressive therapy such as long-term systemic corticosteroids therapy
  • Known systemic hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components or history of a life-threatening reaction to the trial vaccine or to a vaccine containing any of the same substances
  • Chronic illness at a stage that could interfere with trial conduct or completion, in the opinion of the investigator
  • Receipt of blood or blood-derived products since birth that might interfere with the assessment of immune response
  • Receipt or planned receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding or following any trial vaccination (except BCG, DTP-Hib or Hepatitis B vaccines, which can not be given within 10 days before or after any study vaccination)
  • History of seizures

  • History of poliomyelitis infection (confirmed either clinically, serologically or microbiologically)
  • Previous vaccination against the poliomyelitis disease with either the trial vaccine or another vaccine
  • Thrombocytopenia, bleeding disorder or anticoagulants in the 3 weeks preceding inclusion contraindicating intramuscular (IM) injection
  • Febrile illness (temperature ≥38°C) or moderate or severe acute illness/infection on the day of vaccination, according to investigator judgment
