Study summary

Phase 1/2, Prospective, Single Center, Randomized, ActiveControlled, Double-Blind, Age De-escalation Study to assess the safety and tolerability of SIILPCV10 administered as a single-dose regimen to healthy Gambian pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)-naïve young adults and PCV-primed toddlers through 4 weeks post vaccination.

Each adult and toddler subject will undergo a total of 4 clinic visits. Each infant subject will undergo a total of 9 scheduled visits. Blood will be collected from all subjects during the screening visit for safety and potential immunological assessments, and 28 days after completion of the vaccination schedule for immunological assessments. For adults, the vaccine was given intramuscularly into the mid-deltoid muscle of nondominant arm using a 24-gauge needle. For toddlers and infants, the vaccine will be given IM into the anterolateral aspect of the left thigh. Blood will be collected from adults and toddlers for safety labs at the Day 7 post-vaccination visit.

Read the detailed description

This was a prospective, single-center, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, age de escalation study in healthy Gambian PCV-naïve adults (18-40 years old), PCV primed toddlers (12-15 months old) and PCV-naïve infants (6-8 weeks old).

In the adult cohort, at least 34 eligible PCV-naïve adults (18-40 years old) were planned to be randomized into the study to receive a single dose of either SIILPCV10 or Pneumovax 23 in a 1:1 ratio on Day 0 (V1), with stratification by sex (although no fixed proportion of males and females was required in the cohort as a whole).

In the toddler cohort, at least 112 eligible PCV-primed toddlers (12-15 months old) were planned to be randomized into the study to receive a single dose of either SIILPCV10 or Prevenar 13 in a 1:1 ratio on Day 0 (V1).

Each adult and toddler subject underwent a total of 4 clinic visits, including at least 1 screening visit (V0) no more than 14 days prior to Day 0, a vaccination visit on Day 0 (V1), and follow-up clinic visits at 7 (+3) and 28 (+14) days after vaccination (V2 and V3, respectively). A total of 3 blood samples were obtained for laboratory safety and immunogenicity assessments.

In the infant cohort, at least 200 eligible PCV-naïve infants (6 to 8 weeks old) were randomized into the study to receive 3 doses of either SIILPCV10 or Prevenar 13 in a 1:1 ratio along with standard Expanded Program on Immunisation (EPI) vaccinations (pentavalent diphtheria, tetanus, whole-cell pertussis, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae type b combined vaccine [DTwP-HepB-Hib], oral poliovirus vaccine [OPV], rotavirus vaccine [RV], and inactivated poliovirus vaccine [IPV]).

Each infant subject underwent a total of 9 scheduled visits for the primary series: at least 1 screening visit (V0); 3 primary vaccination visits at 28 (+14)-day intervals (V1, 3, 5); follow-up clinic visits at 7 (+3) days after each primary vaccination (V2, 4, 6); and 2 follow-up visits 28 and 84 days after the last primary vaccination (V7 and V8, respectively). Windows for follow-up and subsequent vaccination visits were calculated based on the actual calendar date of the prior vaccination, rather than relative to the day of randomization. Vaccinations included the blinded PCV study vaccine (SIILPCV10 or Prevenar 13) and the unblinded EPI vaccines (DTwP-HepB-Hib, OPV, RV, and IPV).

A total of 2 blood samples were obtained for the primary series (V0 and V7), with the first sample used for safety laboratory eligibility assessment, and if randomized, for baseline immunogenicity testing. Immunogenicity testing was also done on the second sample.

During the supplemental booster phase, infant subjects underwent 2 additional visits: a fourth (booster) vaccination visit (V9) at ≥ 9 months of age, and a follow-up visit 28 days after the booster dose (V10). The EPI vaccines scheduled for 9 months of age in The Gambia were not given as part of the study. However, study personnel contacted parents of infant subjects to remind them of the need to attend this EPI vaccination visit at the due date to allow for effective scheduling of the subsequent booster. The vaccine (SIILPCV10 or Prevenar 13) was given at least 4 weeks after the routine EPI vaccines given at 9 months of age in The Gambia (measles and rubella, yellow fever, and OPV). Infants who received SIILPCV10 at V9 were offered a booster dose of Prevenar 13 at least 56 days following the SIILPCV10 boost. Immunogenicity testing was performed on 2 additional blood samples collected during the booster phase (V9 and V10).

In the adult and toddler cohorts, on the day of vaccination, a malaria rapid test was performed using a finger prick to rule out parasitemia and a urine pregnancy test was performed (in adult women who were not surgically sterile) to rule out pregnancy before final eligibility was confirmed and randomization occurred. In the infant cohort, on each day of vaccination, a malaria rapid test was performed using a finger prick to rule out parasitemia before vaccination occurred. Any infant showing signs of acute illness or abnormal vital signs on the day of vaccination were not vaccinated until recovery was documented by the study team.

After all vaccinations, subjects were monitored for solicited reactogenicity. All adult and toddler subjects were monitored for AEs at each clinic visit until V3, and ongoing AEs at study exit were followed until last subject last visit (LSLV). Infant subjects were monitored for AEs at each clinic visit until V8. For infants who participated in the booster phase of the study, AEs were recorded at V10, and any conditions present at V9 were considered baseline.

SAS software was used to analyze data.

  3. Geometric Mean Concentration of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) 4 Weeks After Vaccination for Infants

    Serum samples were collected 28 days after the third vaccination for infants to determine the ELISA IgG concentration for all 10 serotypes contained in SIILPCV10.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the third dose

  4. Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) in Toddlers, by Serotype

    Serum samples were collected before the first vaccination and 28 days after the last vaccination for adults and toddlers and 28 days after the completion of the primary series for infants to determine the ELISA IgG concentration for all 10 serotypes contained in SIILPCV10. Blood samples were also collected for immunogenicity testing before and 28 days after the booster dose for infants. Baseline serum samples for infants and adults were not assayed. The IgG concentration was also determined for each component of the co administered pentavalent vaccine (DTwP-HepB-Hib) in sera from the infant cohort. If there were limitations to blood volumes, appropriate subsets and priorities for immune testing were established with the immunology laboratories to ensure measurements were unbiased and representative of the entire cohort.

  3. Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) by Time Point (4 Weeks Post Vaccination 3, Pre Booster, 4 Weeks Post Booster) Among Infants Receiving Booster Dose

    Using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Blood samples were collected for immunogenicity testing at 4 weeks post vaccination 3, and before and 28 days after the booster dose for infants.

    Time frame: 4 weeks (28 days)

  4. Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) in Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Among Infants Receiving a Booster Dose

    Using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Blood samples were collected for immunogenicity testing before and 28 days after the booster dose for infants.

    Time frame: 4 weeks (28 days)

  5. Antibody Persistence of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Geometric Mean Concentration Among Infants Receiving a Booster Dose

    Defined as the ratio of IgG geometric mean concentration (GMC) measured prior to the infant booster dose, to GMC measured 4 weeks after the 3-dose primary series. Infants received the booster dose at least four weeks after they received routine Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) vaccines, which occurred at 9 months of age. Thus, the time frame was at least 20 weeks but may have been longer.

    Time frame: 20-23 weeks

  6. Booster Effect: Ratio of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Geometric Mean Concentration 4 Weeks Post Vaccination 3 Versus 4 Weeks Post Booster Among Infants Receiving a Booster Dose

    Defined as the ratio of IgG geometric mean concentration (GMC) measured 4 weeks post-infant booster dose, to GMC measured 4 weeks after the 3-dose primary series. Infants received the booster dose at least four weeks after they received routine Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) vaccines, which occurred at 9 months of age.

PrimaryOccurrence, Severity and Relatedness of Clinically Significant Hematological and Biochemistry Lab Values in Adults and Toddlers

Blood samples were collected for safety hematology and clinical chemistry evaluations, organ function tests, and, for adults, coagulation panel evaluation. Laboratory assessments were only performed at baseline for infants. Testing for HIV was undertaken only following pre-test counseling of the subject/subject's parent as to the implications of the test result. Post test counseling was also undertaken, and on the basis of a positive result the subject and subject's parents would have been referred on for HIV care according to normal local practice in The Gambia.

SecondaryGeometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) in Toddlers, by Serotype

Serum samples were collected before the first vaccination and 28 days after the last vaccination for adults and toddlers and 28 days after the completion of the primary series for infants to determine the ELISA IgG concentration for all 10 serotypes contained in SIILPCV10. Blood samples were also collected for immunogenicity testing before and 28 days after the booster dose for infants. Baseline serum samples for infants and adults were not assayed. The IgG concentration was also determined for each component of the co administered pentavalent vaccine (DTwP-HepB-Hib) in sera from the infant cohort. If there were limitations to blood volumes, appropriate subsets and priorities for immune testing were established with the immunology laboratories to ensure measurements were unbiased and representative of the entire cohort.

Other pre-specifiedBooster Effect: Ratio of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Geometric Mean Concentration 4 Weeks Post Vaccination 3 Versus 4 Weeks Post Booster Among Infants Receiving a Booster Dose

Defined as the ratio of IgG geometric mean concentration (GMC) measured 4 weeks post-infant booster dose, to GMC measured 4 weeks after the 3-dose primary series. Infants received the booster dose at least four weeks after they received routine Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) vaccines, which occurred at 9 months of age. Thus, the time frame was at least 24 weeks but may have been longer.

Adverse events

Collected over All adult and toddler subjects were monitored for AEs until 28 days after receipt of vaccine, and ongoing AEs at study exit were followed until last subject last visit (LSLV). Infant subjects were monitored for AEs until 28 days after receipt of three doses of the vaccine. For infants who participated in the booster phase of the study, AEs were recorded at 28 days post booster dose, and any conditions present at the visit when booster dose was given were considered baseline.. Non-serious events are listed at a 5% frequency threshold.
