About
This study evaluates the immunogenicity and consistency of 3 Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine lots and the safety and immunogenicity of Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine compared to a control group receiving licensed Hib conjugate vaccine, when each are co-administered with Pediarix® to healthy infants at 2, 4, and 6 months of age. The study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine compared to a control group receiving licensed Hib conjugate vaccine, when each are co-administered with M-M-R® II and Varivax® at 12 to 15 months of age.
Full description
The subjects from this study will participate in one of three cohorts:
Treatment allocation:
Primary phase: Subjects will be randomized with balanced allocation (1:1:1:1) to 1 of the 4 treatment groups and with a stratification according to the cohort. Assignment to a cohort will be based on study site.
Booster phase: Subjects who received Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine in the primary phase will receive a booster dose of Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine. Subjects who received ActHIB in the primary phase will receive a booster dose of PedvaxHIB.
During the 3-dose primary vaccination course, co-administration of Prevnar, Synagis, and/or rotavirus vaccine is permitted; co-administration of influenza vaccine is permitted at dose 3.
During the booster vaccination, co-administration of Prevnar, hepatitis A vaccine and influenza vaccine is permitted for all subjects in Cohort 1, 2 and 3; and co-administration of measles, mumps, rubella and varicella vaccine is permitted for all subjects in Cohort 2 and 3.
The study will be conducted in a double-blind fashion with regard to consistency of the 3 manufacturing lots of Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine and single-blind fashion for Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine versus monovalent Hib vaccine. The parents/guardians will be blinded up to collection of all data pertaining to the period up to one month after booster vaccination. Therefore, the extended safety follow-up after the booster dose will be conducted in an unblinded manner. The person administering the vaccines will ensure that the parent/guardian does not see the vaccine vial used in reconstituting the vaccine. Due to the differences in the presentations of the candidate Hib-MenCY-TT vaccine and control vaccines, it is not possible to blind study personnel who administer the vaccines.
