A dose escalating study with 3 different dosing regimens of the studied vaccine (JECEVAX- VABIOTECH-Vietnam) and a licensed vaccine (JEVAX-VABIOTECH-Vietnam) is conducted in Vietnamese children, aged 9 to 24 months to assess the safety and immunogenicity. Two hundred children are enrolled and randomly assigned into 4 groups (50 children/group), each of which receive 2 doses of study / control vaccine subcutaneously, at 10-12 days interval. Safety issues included immediate reaction at the site of injection and systemic reaction within 30 min of administration, solicited and unsolicited adverse events occurs from the first dose to 30 days after second dose; SAE (from start of first dose to 30 days after second dose), blood cell count, urea, ALT, AST. Immunogenicity outcomes include seroconversion of neutralizing antibodies (blood samples are taken prior to 1st dose and 20-22 days post 2nd dose).
Mouse brain-derived Japanese Encephalitis (JE) vaccine was developed in Vietnam since 1989 with the support from WHO and BIKEN institute, Japan. It helped Viet Nam prevents Japanese Encephalitis outbreaks successfully during those years.
However, mouse brain-derived JE vaccine production requires companies to compliance various requirements from WHO. Especially, WHO has a plan to replace the mouse brain-derived JE vaccines with Cell culture-derived JE vaccines.
Vero cell-derived vaccine technology shows many advantages compares to Mouse brain-derived vaccine technology. VABIOTECH has been approved and sponsored by the Ministry of Science and Technology to produce Vero cell - derived JE vaccine. The vaccine demonstrated a good safety and immunogenicity profile in animal models. The vaccine has been proven safety in volunteer adults.
In this study, a dose escalating study with 3 different dosing regimens of the studied vaccine (JECEVAX) and a licensed vaccine (JEVAX-VABIOTECH Vietnam) is conducted in Vietnamese children, aged 9-24 months to assess the safety and immunogenicity. Two hundred children are enrolled and randomly assigned into 4 groups (50 children/group), each of which receive 2 doses of investigate vaccines or control vaccine subcutaneously, at 10-12 days interval. Safety issues included immediate reaction at the site of injection and systemic reaction within 30 min of administration, solicited and unsolicited adverse events occurs from the first dose to 30 days after second dose; SAE (from start of first dose to 30 days after second dose), blood cell count, urea, ALT, AST. Immunogenicity outcomes include seroconversion of neutralizing antibodies (blood samples are taken prior to 1st dose and 20-22 days post 2nd dose).

Exclusion Criteria:
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.
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.
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.
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.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
