Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Open Label Study of IgG Fc Glycan Composition in Human Immunity (NCT NCT01967238)

NCT ID: NCT01967238

Last Updated: 2024-09-19

Results Overview

The percent of Fc glycans that are galactosylation, fucosylation and/or sialylation of pre- vs. post- vaccination Fcs determined by lectin blot (Erythrina cristagalli, Aleuria Aurantia Lectin and Sambucus nigra lectins specific for galactose, fucose and 2,6-sialic acid, respectively) or by mass spectrometric analysis. 100% of IgG were found to have these modifications.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: One Day

Population: The primary assessment in the study was intended to compare data for each Arm as shown with no comparisons by vaccine. All groups within Arm 1 were not fully enrolled, therefore it was adequately powered to perform analyses (data were not collected). Arm 2 was not fully enrolled and underpowered (data were not collected). Samples from Arm 3 were destroyed during the COVID-19 pandemic due to a stalled shipment which caused the samples to thaw for several days (data were not collected).

The percent of Fc glycans that are galactosylation, fucosylation and/or sialylation of pre- vs. post- vaccination Fcs determined by lectin blot (Erythrina cristagalli, Aleuria Aurantia Lectin and Sambucus nigra lectins specific for galactose, fucose and 2,6-sialic acid, respectively) or by mass spectrometric analysis. 100% of IgG were found to have these modifications.
