Study summary

Diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis are common causes of diseases worldwide, with significant morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of a single dose of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' Boostrix vaccine, administered as a booster dose in healthy Russian subjects. An equal number of subjects are expected to be recruited in the following age categories: 4-9 years (children), 10-17 years (adolescents), 18-64 years (adults) and ≥65 years (elderly population). By receiving the Boostrix vaccine, the subjects could be protected against diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis diseases.

Read the detailed description

The study is a phase III, open-label, self-contained, multi-centre, uncontrolled, single-country study with a single group. Treatment will be allocated in a non-randomised process and stratified by age as 4-9 years (children), 10-17 years (adolescents), 18-64 years (adults) and ≥65 years (elderly population). The study will consist of a single primary epoch (001) starting at Visit 1 (Day 1) with the administration of a single dose of Boostrix vaccine and ending at Visit 2 (Day 31). Blood samples will be collected at Visits 1 and 2.

Protocol Amendment 1 was developed to implement the following changes:

  • Wording "parents/Legally Acceptable Representative(s) (LAR[s])" was replaced by the wording "parent(s)/adoptive parent(s)". As per Russian legislation, only parents or adoptive parents can give consent for the enrolment of their child in a clinical trial. No other person is allowed to give consent on behalf of a minor to participate in a clinical trial.
  • The age groups at inclusion to study were amended according to the approved Boostrix EU label and physiological particularities i.e., from 3-9 to 4-9 years (children), 10-19 to 10-17 years (adolescents), 20-64 to 18-64 years (adults) and ≥65 years (elderly population).
  • The inclusion criteria have been amended in order to clarify the following,

    • Children from four to seven years of age who have received diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis vaccination prior to study enrolment as per local recommendations will be enrolled
    • Subjects eight years of age and older who have received diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis vaccination to the best of their/subjects' parent(s)/subjects' adoptive parent(s) knowledge and did not receive an additional diphtheria, tetanus or pertussis vaccination within five years prior to enrolment in the study will be enrolled.

Protocol amendment 2 was developed after the comments from the Russian regulatory authorities [Ministry of Health (MoH)]. Adjustments to the text were made to clarify the inclusion and exclusion criteria for enrolment of subjects and the conduct of the study. In addition, adjustments for the reporting period and assessment of adverse events in the safety sections were made for consistency. The newly re-developed and re-validated GSK's DTPa ELISA cut-offs were updated as per the most recent CBER recommendation (2017).

Protocol amendment 3 is developed to accommodate older adults (approximately 58 years old and older) who were born before national recommendations in Russia for infant DTP vaccination. Adjustments to the text are made in the inclusion criteria to clarify the enrolment of subjects for age group eight years and above.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(9)

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.

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.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Postmenopausal

Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).

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.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

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.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jan 2018 to primary completion in Aug 2018, 7 months.

Results were first posted in Oct 2019, 1 year 1 month after primary completion.

Of 46 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Diphtheria, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 21. This study's 7 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 46 studies reached it within 13 months; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 21.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

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 Oct 27, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
