Phase III Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of a Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine
Phase III, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Immunogenicity of the Dengue 1, 2, 3, 4 (Attenuated) Vaccine From Instituto Butantan
This is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III study that will evaluate efficacy and safety of a live attenuated, tetravalent, lyophilized dengue vaccine produced by Butantan Institute.
The study will be carried out in multiple sites in Brazil. The study will be community-based in select urban areas where there's dengue transmission.
Study's intervention will be a single dose of the tetravalent dengue vaccine or placebo in a ratio 2:1. For efficacy analysis will be considered all dengue cases occurring after 28 days post-vaccination in the entire population of 16944 participants.
For safety analysis participants will be divided in three age groups: 18 to 59 ys, 7-17 ys and 2 to 6 ys. In each of these age groups there will be a minimum of 4992 participants. The age groups of 18 to 59 ys and 7 to 17 ys will start first. Once safety data for the first 21 days after vaccination is analysed for 450 participants in 7-to17-ys age group, the following group, of 2 to 6 ys, will start.
The study's hypothesis is that the vaccine under investigation and produced by Butantan Institute is safe and provides protection against dengue symptomatic disease of 80% or more with a lower bound of the 95% confidence interval of 25%. This way, the expected number of dengue cases virologically confirmed is 24 or more which will provide a response in terms of vaccine efficacy.
All participants will be followed up for five years to verify dengue incidence, regardless severity.

Efficacy (incidence density of symptomatic dengue cases, virologically confirmed)
Time Frame: Five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
The primary efficacy outcome is incidence density of symptomatic dengue cases, virologically confirmed, after 28 days post-vaccination.

|
Five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
Safety (adverse reactions)
Time Frame: In the first 21 days post-vaccination
|
The primary safety outcome is the frequency of local and systemic adverse reactions, solicited and non-solicited in the three age groups, within the first 21 days post-vaccination.
Adverse reactions are defined as adverse events that have a reasonable causal relationship with vaccination.
|
In the first 21 days post-vaccination
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Efficacy (incidence density of dengue cases confirmed virologically, regarding previous exposure to dengue viruses. )
Time Frame: at five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
The incidence density of dengue cases confirmed virologically after 28 days of vaccination, regarding previous exposure to dengue viruses.
To demonstrate previous exposure or not to dengue viruses, validated serological methods such as: Elisa IgG Indirect, hemagglutination inhibition test or neutralizing antibodies (e.g., VRNT) or another validated test will be used.
In case of doubtful results, more than one technique may be used to confirm the diagnosis.
|
at five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
Efficacy (incidence density of dengue cases confirmed virologically, regarding the viral serotype)
Time Frame: Five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
The incidence density of dengue cases confirmed virologically after 28 days of vaccination, regarding the viral serotype.
Virological diagnosis of the viral serotype will be performed using the viral isolation technique or RT-PCR.
|
Five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
Efficacy (incidence density of cases of severe dengue and/or with alarm signs, including cases hospitalized or not)
Time Frame: Five years post vaccination, all cases after 28 days post-vaccination
|
Incidence density of cases of severe dengue and/or with alarm signs, including cases hospitalized or not, after 28 days of vaccination.
Laboratory confirmation of these cases will occur through serological and/or virological tests.
|
