A Study of Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine Compared With SA14-14-2 Vaccine in Infants and Toddlers

November 30, 2013 updated by: Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company

A Controlled Study of the Immunogenicity and Safety of Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (JE-CV) in Comparison With SA14-14-2 Vaccine in Infants and Toddlers in Thailand

The purpose of this study is to compare a single dose of Japanese encephalitis (JE) chimeric virus vaccine (JE-CV) with a single dose of SA14-14-2 live vaccine as primary vaccination in infants and toddlers.

Primary Objective:

  • To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody response 28 days after vaccine administration of one dose of JE CV (administered on Day 0) compared to the antibody response after one dose of the SA14-14-2 control vaccine (administered on Day 0).

Secondary Objectives:

  • To describe the immune response to JE in both vaccine groups in JE-CV virus and SA14-14-2 virus before and after a single dose of JE CV or a single dose of SA14-14-2 vaccine
  • To describe the safety profile in all vaccinated subjects up to 28 days and all serious adverse events (SAEs) up to 6 months after vaccination.
  • To describe only related SAEs and all death from 6 month to 12-month follow-up.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Japanese Encephalitis Seroconversion After Vaccination With One Dose of Either Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Vaccine (JE-CV) or Japanese Encephalitis Live Vaccine (SA14-14-2) (CD.JEVAX®)
Time Frame: Day 0 through Day 28 after vaccination

Immunogenicity was assessed by the JE-CV virus and the SA14-14-2 virus 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50).

Japanese Encephalitis seroconversion was defined as a pre-vaccination titer <10 1/dil and post-vaccination titer ≥ 10 1/dil; or a pre-vaccination titer ≥ 10 1/dil and a 4-fold increase from pre- to post-vaccination.

Day 0 through Day 28 after vaccination

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Japanese Encephalitis Seroprotection 28 Days After Vaccination With One Dose of Either Japanese Encephalitis Chimeric Virus Vaccine (JE-CV) or Japanese Encephalitis Live Vaccine (SA14-14-2, CD.JEVAX®)
Time Frame: Day 28 post-vaccination

Immunogenicity was assessed by JE-CV virus 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) or SA14-14-2 virus PRNT50.
