Official title
A Randomized, Double-blind, Positive-controlled Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of 24-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Children Aged 2 Months (Minimum 42 Days) to 5 Years
Overview
A Phase 2 clinical trial of 24-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV24) developed by Sinovac Life Science Co., Ltd will be conducted in the pediatric population aged 2 months (minimum 42 days) to 5 years. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Sinovac PCV24. The trial is a randomized, double-blind, positive controlled phase 2 clinical trial.
Detailed description
A phase 2 clinical trial of the study of 24-valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Conjugate Vaccine (PCV24) developed by Sinovac Life Science Co., Ltd (Sinovac) will be conducted in the Chinese pediatric population aged 2 months (minimum 42 days) to 5 years. The trial is a randomized, double-blind, positive-controlled study. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of PCV24 manufactured by Sinovac Life Science Co., Ltd. The active control vaccine is Prevenar13®, manufactured by Pfizer.
A total of at least 420 participants aged 2 months (minimum 42 days) to 5 years will be enrolled. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the test group and control group.
Interventions
- Biological Sinovac PCV24
Sinovac PCV24 (0.5 mL) is administered intramuscularly according to different immunization schedules. - Biological Prevnar®
Prevnar® (0.5 mL) is administered intramuscularly according to different immunization schedules.
Primary outcome measures
- Pneumococcal serotype-specific IgG antibody geometric mean concentration (GMC) [Time frame: 30 days after primary vaccination]
- Incidence of adverse reactions [Time frame: 0-30 days after vaccination]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Pneumococcal serotype-specific IgG antibody geometric mean increase (GMI) [Time frame: 30 days after the 2nd dose of the primary vaccination (2-month-olds), 30 days after primary vaccination (all participants)]
- OPA antibody levels for each pneumococcal serotype [Time frame: 30 days after vaccination]
- Incidence of adverse reactions [Time frame: 0-7 days after vaccination]
- Incidence of serious adverse events (SAE) [Time frame: from vaccination to 6 months after final dose]
