About

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety and preliminary immunogenicity of the Enterovirus Type71 - Coxsackievirus Type A16 bivalent vaccine in subjects ( aged 6 months to 59 years ).

Full description

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase I clinical trial in which three dose levels of the Enterovirus Type71 -Coxsackievirus Type A16 bivalent vaccine will be evaluated the safety and preliminary immunogenicity in subjects aged 6 months to 59 years. A total of 144 participants will be enrolled, including 48 adults (aged 18-59 years), 48 adolescents (aged 6-17 years), and 48 children (aged 6 months-5 years). Participants will be randomized into vaccine group and placebo group in a 3:1 ratio, and receive two doses of vaccine or placebo according to the 0- and 28-day immunization schedule.The dose escalation principle within each age group is from low to high doses, and the sequential enrollment principle between different age groups is from adults to children.

Primary endpoints are the occurrence of safety events after vaccination including the incidence of adverse events within 30 minutes/7 days/28 days after each dose, as well as the incidence of serious adverse events within 12 months after the final dose which will be defined as the secondary safety endpoint. Besides, the secondary immunogenicity endpoints are the geometric mean titers, geometric mean fold increases, seropositive rates, and seroconversion rates of anti-EV71 neutralizing antibodies and anti-CA16 neutralizing antibodies 28 days after the final dose.

Exclusion criteria

Subjects meeting any of the following exclusion criteria will be not eligible for enrollment.
