Trial Outcomes & Findings for Chikungunya Vaccine (V184) Study in Previously Exposed Adults (V184-006) (NCT NCT03807843)

NCT ID: NCT03807843

Last Updated: 2022-09-08

Results Overview

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of the treatment that did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. "Solicited AEs" included fever, fatigue, headache, malaise, myalgia, nausea/vomiting, joint pain or injection site itching, pain/tenderness, erythema/redness or induration/swelling that occurred within 7 days of vaccination. The number of participants with solicited AEs following Vaccination 1 (Day 0) or Vaccination 2 (Day 28) were reported for each group.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 7 days after vaccination (up to Day 35)

Population: All participants that received at least one dose of vaccine/placebo were analyzed.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of the treatment that did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. "Solicited AEs" included fever, fatigue, headache, malaise, myalgia, nausea/vomiting, joint pain or injection site itching, pain/tenderness, erythema/redness or induration/swelling that occurred within 7 days of vaccination. The number of participants with solicited AEs following Vaccination 1 (Day 0) or Vaccination 2 (Day 28) were reported for each group.

Population: All participants that received at least one dose of vaccine/placebo were analyzed.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of the treatment that did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. "Unsolicited AEs" were defined as events reported within 7 days after each vaccination and not defined as solicited AE, and all AEs reported more than 7 days after vaccination. The number of participants with unsolicited AEs were reported for each group.

"Solicited AEs" included fever, fatigue, headache, malaise, myalgia, nausea/vomiting, joint pain or injection site itching, pain/tenderness, erythema/redness or induration/swelling that occurred within 7 days of vaccination. "Unsolicited AEs" were defined as events reported within 7 days after each vaccination and not defined as solicited AE, and all AEs reported more than 7 days after vaccination. AEs were graded by the investigator for severity as per the FDA Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adults Enrolled in Vaccine Clinical Trials (2007), where Grade 1=mild; Grade 2=moderate; Grade 3=severe; Grade 4=potentially life threatening. A higher grade indicates increased severity of AE. The number of participants with solicited and unsolicited AEs of grade 2 (moderate) or higher were reported for each group.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 0, 28, 56, and 196

Population: All participants that received both doses of vaccine/placebo, had at least one post-vaccination immunogenicity assessment, and did not experience a protocol deviation that affected their immunogenicity evaluation were analyzed.

Serum samples were collected and the titers of serum neutralization antibodies were assessed. GMTs were calculated using a mixed effects model with treatment (V184 versus placebo), visit and age group, and treatment visit interaction as fixed factors and participant as a random effect. GMFR was defined as the geometric mean of the ratio of concentration at specified timepoints after vaccination divided by concentration at baseline (Day 0).
