Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This randomized clinical trial will assess the immune response in infants following administration of three types of oral poliovirus vaccine trivalent OPV (tOPV), monovalent OPV type 1 (mOPV1), bivalent OPV types 1 and 3 (bOPV) using two different schedules: a short schedule with administration at two week intervals and the usual schedule at four week intervals. The results of this study will guide the Global Polio Eradication Program in the implementation of new strategies that may: 1) improve the quality of the response to outbreaks following importation of wild poliovirus type 1 by shortening the interval at which several OPV doses are provided; 2) prevent alternate outbreaks of type 1 and type 3 poliovirus by using bOPV in outbreak responses in countries with weak routine immunization systems; and 3) prevent the emergence of type 2 vaccine-derived poliovirus through the replacement of tOPV with bOPV in immunization campaigns and routine immunization programs.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase IV, randomized controlled clinical trial of three types of oral poliovirus vaccines provided at 2-week or 4-week intervals.

The study will enroll 1,000 participants from rural Matlab and urban Dhaka.

In this study infants will be given two different types of oral poliovirus vaccine, monovalent OPV type 1 (mOPV1) and bivalent OPV types 1 and 3 (bOPV) using two different schedules: a short schedule with administration at two week intervals and the usual schedule at four week intervals. The immune responses to these vaccines and schedules will be compared with the response to the routine oral polio vaccine schedule in Bangladesh of trivalent oral polio vaccine (tOPV) given at 4 week intervals.

The study will use a randomized controlled trial design. Eligible infants will be randomized at 6 weeks of age to one of five study arms: A) 3 doses of bOPV at 6, 8 and 10 weeks of age (2-week interval between doses); B) 3 doses of bOPV at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age (4-week interval between doses); C) 3 doses of mOPV1 at 6, 8 and 10 weeks of age (2-week interval between doses); D) 3 doses of mOPV1 at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age (4-week interval between doses); and E) 3 doses of tOPV at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age (4-week interval between doses). Currently, tOPV is provided in routine immunization in Bangladesh at the same age as proposed in this study. bOPV, mOPV1 and mOPV3 are licensed in several countries and the World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended its use in immunization campaigns among children 0 to 5 years in response to circulation of type 1 and type 3 wild poliovirus, and to prevent outbreaks in countries at risk.

To assess the immunogenicity of each study vaccine and vaccination schedule, antibody titers against poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3 will be determined in sera extracted from blood collected before (at 6 weeks of age) and after receiving 3 doses of study vaccine. Seroconversion will be defined as a titer 4-fold higher than the expected fall in maternally derived antibodies, assuming a half life of 28 days. The initial antibody titer at 6 weeks of age will be used as the starting point for the expected decline in maternal antibody. We will calculate a one-sided 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of seroconversions achieved in the short interval study arms and the longer interval study arms. If the confidence interval does not include 10%, we will conclude that the short interval is not inferior to the longer interval. This same analysis will be applied to the difference between bOPV and mOPV1.

This study will answer the following questions:

1. Is the immunogenicity of 3 doses of bOPV non inferior to that of 3 doses of mOPV1 against type 1 poliovirus?
2. Is an interval of 2 weeks between bOPV or mOPV1 doses non inferior to an interval of 4 weeks?
3. Will replacement of tOPV with bOPV in the routine immunization schedule achieve similar or higher proportions of children immune to type 1 and 3 polioviruses? The answers to these questions will guide the Global Polio Eradication Program in implementing new strategies that may: 1) improve the quality of the response to outbreaks following importation of wild poliovirus type 1 by shortening the interval at which several OPV doses are provided; and 2) prevent alternate outbreaks of type 1 and type 3 poliovirus by using bOPV instead of monovalent OPVs; and 3) prevent the emergence of type 2 vaccine-derived poliovirus through the replacement of tOPV with bOPVin immunization campaigns and in routine immunization programs.
