About
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore two strategies to enhance nOPV2 immunogenicity in the field and overcome potential interference of bOPV:
Participants at 6 weeks of age will be enrolled and randomized to one of four arms receiving the different polio vaccines; nOPV2, bOPV and IPV, in different combination schedule. The target enrolment is 220 infants per arm for a total of 880. Blood will be collected from all participants to measure Poliovirus antibody titers to types 1, 2 and 3.
Full description
The study will assess whether adding IPV at the end of a 3-dose series of co-administered nOPV2+bOPV achieves at least a 95% seroconversion to all serotypes and whether adding IPV following two doses of co-administered nOPV2+bOPV achieves at least a 90% seroconversion to all poliovirus types.
Study findings will inform vaccination strategies in areas with co-circulation of poliovirus types and provide information about immunogenicity of potential routine immunization schedule with nOPV2 and bOPV in countries with persistent transmission or emergences of cVDPV2.
This is an open-label, controlled, inequality, four arm randomized clinical trial, will be conducted in two study sites in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Participants will be enrolled at 6 weeks of age following inclusion and exclusion criteria's, randomly assigned to one of the four study arms and followed to 18 weeks of age. Three polio vaccines will be used in the study: bOPV, nOPV2 and IPV in different sequential or combination schedules.
Entry evaluations will be completed at 6 weeks of age. Blood collection and study vaccine administration are planned during the study entry evaluation. Post-entry evaluations and follow-up will be done at 10 weeks, 14 weeks and 18 weeks of age. Blood will be collected before any study or EPI vaccines are administered. Presence of poliovirus neutralizing antibodies to all three poliovirus types will be assessed using a microneutralization assay.
