Study summary

The purpose of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of BioThrax anthrax vaccine in healthy adults following 3 doses of BioThrax. Results of this study will be used to support a post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) indication for BioThrax.

This study will be conducted in the United States (U.S.), in 200 healthy male and female volunteer subjects ages 18 to 65 years.

The duration of study participation for each individual subject will be approximately 128 days (4.25 months), including a screening period of approximately 28 days followed by 100 days on study.

Read the detailed description

BioThrax® (also called Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed or AVA) is the only FDA-licensed vaccine for the prevention of anthrax infection. This study will evaluate the immunogenicity of the vaccine using a post-exposure vaccination schedule. Correlations will be drawn to immunogenicity and survival data from animal models to demonstrate that BioThrax® can elicit a protective immune response for PEP.

Inclusion criteria

  • Be between 18 and 65 years of age, inclusive, at the time of enrollment.
  • Be in good health as determined by the investigator from medical history and a physical examination.
  • If a pre-menopausal female, must be using acceptable methods of .
  • Have all hematology and chemistry parameters (measured at Screening) within the laboratory's normal range.
  • Be willing and able to return for all visits and blood collections for the duration of the study.
  • Have read, understood and signed an form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior immunization with anthrax vaccine or known exposure to anthrax organisms.
  • Intend to enlist in the military during the study.
  • Have a known allergy to aluminum hydroxide, formaldehyde, benzethonium chloride, or latex.
  • Plan to receive experimental products at any time during the study.
  • Have received a in the 30 days before study entry.
  • Plan to receive a live vaccine at any time during the study.
  • Have ongoing drug abuse/dependence (including alcohol) issues and/or test positive in a urine drug screen for amphetamines, barbiturates, cocaine or opiates;
  • Have received therapy (including systemic ) within 3 months prior to study entry.
  • Have a condition known to produce or be associated with immunosuppression.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Live vaccines

Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value at Day 63 (5 Weeks Following the Third Vaccination on Day 28).

    Neutralizing antibody levels in blinded serum samples were measured using a validated anthrax lethal toxin neutralization assay. The primary assay endpoint was the 50% neutralization factor (TNA NF50), which is calculated as the ratio of the 50% effective dose (ED50) of the test sample to the ED50 of a reference serum.

    Time frame: Day 63 +/- 2 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value at Day 70.

    Neutralizing antibody levels in blinded serum samples were measured using a validated anthrax lethal toxin neutralization assay. The primary assay endpoint was the 50% neutralization factor (TNA NF50), which is calculated as the ratio of the 50% effective dose (ED50) of the test sample to the ED50 of a reference serum.

    Time frame: Day 70 +/- 2 days

  2. Average Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value Between Days 63 and 100 (Inclusive).

    Neutralizing antibody levels in blinded serum samples were measured using a validated anthrax lethal toxin neutralization assay. The primary assay endpoint was the 50% neutralization factor (TNA NF50), which is calculated as the ratio of the 50% effective dose (ED50) of the test sample to the ED50 of a reference serum.

    Time frame: Days 63 to 100

  3. Incidence of Injection Site Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards

    Injection site reactions (warmth, tenderness, itching, pain, arm motion limitation, redness, lump, swelling, and bruise) were evaluated by using a web-enabled subject diary. Subjects assessed the severity of warmth, tenderness, itching, pain, arm motion limitation, lump, and bruise as absent, mild, moderate, or severe based on the degree of interference with daily activities. Severity of redness and swelling were based on the diameter of the affected area. Severe injection site reactions were recorded as adverse events by the investigator site staff after confirmation with the subject.

    Time frame: Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).

    Time frame: Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).

  5. Incidence of Systemic Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards

Participants 18 to 65 years of age who received all three doses of BioThrax within the allowable time window and had a blood sample collected for immunogenicity testing on Day 63 ± 2 days. Subjects with key protocol deviations that may have impacted assessment of immune response or sample testing (as determined by Sponsor) on Day 63 were excluded.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 9, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
