Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of EV71 Vaccines in preventing Hand, Foot and Mouth disease caused by EV71 in a total 10,000 healthy infants volunteers aged from 6 to 35months old.

Read the detailed description

The phase II study of inactivated vaccine (vero cell) against EV71 has completed on Dec 2011 in China. The data from the phase I and II study suggested that the inactivated EV71 vaccine had a clinically acceptable safety and good immunogenicity for healthy Chinese infants. In order to evaluate the efficacy of the vaccine against Hand, Foot and Mouth disease caused by EV71, and to further explore the safety profile of this vaccine in expending infant population, a phase III clinical trial is planed to conduct.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The incidence rate of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease caused by EV71 within one year observation period after the second vaccination

    to evaluate the efficacy of EV71 vacccine against HFMD caused by EV71

    Time frame: From 28 days after the second vaccination to one year

Secondary outcomes

  1. The GMT of anti-EV71 antibodies in serum after second vaccination

    to evaluate the GMT of anti-EV71 antibodies in serum 28 days after second vaccination

    Time frame: 28 days after first vaccination

  2. The GMT of anti-EV71 antibodies in serum 7 and 13 months after second vaccination

    to evaluate the immune persistence of anti-EV71 antibodies in serum

    Time frame: 7 and 13 months after second vaccination

  3. Frequency of systemic and local adverse reactions after the first vaccination

    Frequency of systemic and local adverse reactions in healthy infants following first doses of EV71 vaccine

    Time frame: 28 days after the first vaccination

  4. Frequency of systemic and local adverse reactions after the second vaccination

    Frequency of systemic and local adverse reactions in healthy infants following second doses of EV71 vaccine

    Time frame: 28 days after the second vaccination
