Pneumococcal Adult-dose Ranging Immunization Study

NCT ID: NCT00169234

Last Updated: 2017-10-13

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1/PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 220 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2003-05-31
• Study Completion Date: 2005-02-28

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to give seniors different doses of a new pneumococcal vaccine called PCV7 to evaluate the safety of the vaccine and compare the immune response to find out which amount gives the best immune response. The PCV7 vaccine is currently licensed by the FDA for use in infants and toddlers only.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this prospective randomized study is to assess the safety, post-vaccination antibody response, and memory response to a subsequent polysaccharide challenge of varying doses of PCV7 compared with the standard dose of PPV23 in immunocompetent adults 70-79 years of age who were previously vaccinated with PPV23 at age 65 years or above and at least 5 years previously. The study will be conducted among a total of 220 persons recruited from GHC and the Seattle VAMC. Participants will be randomized into one of 5 study groups with 44 participants per group. The antigen content of PCV7 will be varied by administration of different volumes of the licensed pediatric formulation of that vaccine. Four groups will receive one of four volumes (0.1 mL, 0.5 mL, 1.0 mL, 2.0 mL) of the licensed pediatric formulation of PCV7 followed 12 months later by administration of a challenge 0.1 mL dose of PPV23 to assess the induction of immunologic memory. The comparison group will receive the standard 0.5 mL dose of PPV23 following 12 months later by administration of a 0.1 mL dose of PPV23.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Able to perform study procedures
• Able to be contacted by telephone for follow-up on adverse events

Exclusion Criteria

• Received >=2 doses of PPV23 prior to study enrollment.

• Current or planned participation in a research study of an investigational drug. Participation in research studies that involve use of licensed drugs, for either approved or investigational indications, will be permitted with the approval of the site PI, as will participation in research studies that do not involve medications.
• Current use or previous chronic administration, defined as >=14 days during the previous six months, of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs. (For oral or injected corticosteroids, the immune-modifying dose is defined as prednisone or its equivalent >=10 mg/day). Topical steroids are allowed.
