Study summary

Eupolio is inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV). Major purpose of this study is to evaluate safety of Eupolio in 2,000 infants. In addition to the safety, long-term protection after completion of the three primary vaccinations and extent of protective level after a single boosting dose of Eupolio will be evaluated.

As IPV plus bOPV vaccination schedule (3 doses of bOPV plus 2 doses of IPV in infant-toddle vaccination schedule) has been implemented in some countries, this study will also evaluate Eupolio's safety and protective effect in that schedule.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Infants in stable health
  • Male or female 6 to 8 weeks of age
  • Signed by the infant's parent(s) or legally acceptable representative(s)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known or suspected poliomyelitis
  • Known or suspected febrile(symptom of a fever), or chronic illnesses
  • Fever ≥ 38.0℃/100.4℉ within 3 days prior to study registration or intake of drug preventing fever
  • Known or suspected immune disorders (abnormal activity in protective system in human body) or received therapy (treatment for weaken protective system in human body)
  • Previous use of blood or blood-derived products
  • Previous use of polio vaccines
  • Seizures (temporary abnormalities in muscle tone or movements due to abnormal activity in the brain)
  • Bleeding disorders
  • Household contact or intimate exposure with a confirmed case of polio
  • Any history of allergy () to the components of the polio vaccine
  • Participation in another interventional clinical trial simultaneously or within 30 days
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

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.

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.

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.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Safety group

    Three doses of Eupolio will be administered at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age. Only safety will be evaluated for this arm.

    Biological: Eupolio

  • Experimental
    Immunogenicity group 1 (4 Eupolio including 1 boosting dose)

    Three doses of Eupolio will be administered at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age, and additional single dose of Eupolio will be administered one year after the three primary vaccinations.

    Biological: Eupolio

  • Experimental
    Immunogenicity group 2 (3bOPV+2 Eupolio)

    bOPV will be administered at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age, and Eupolio will be administered at 14 and 40 weeks of age.

    Biological: Eupolio

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Immediate reaction

    Any side effects that occur within 30 minutes after the vaccination

    Time frame: 30 minutes after each vaccination

  2. Solicited adverse event

    Expected local or systemic side effects after vaccination

    Time frame: 7 days after each vaccination

  3. Unsolicited adverse event

    All unwanted or bad events after vaccination other than solicited adverse event

    Time frame: 28 days after each vaccinations

Secondary outcomes

  1. Seroprotection rate

    Proportion of infants who have more than 8 protective antibody titers

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the third vaccination, 52 weeks after the third vaccination and 7 days after the boosting vaccination in the 4 Eupolio group/ 4 weeks after the first and second vaccination in the 3bOPV+2Eupolio group

  2. Geometric mean titers of neutralizing antibody against polio antigens

    Geometric mean titers and log2 titers for protective antibody against poliovirus type 1, 2, and 3

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the third vaccination, 52 weeks after the third vaccination and 7 days after the boosting vaccination in the 4 Eupolio group / 4 weeks after the first and second vaccination in the 3bOPV+2Eupolio group

  3. Priming response

    Proportion of infants who have more than 8 protective antibody titers after boosting dose, depending on protective state before boosting dose.

    Time frame: 7 days after the boosting vaccination in the 4 Eupolio group

  4. Seroconversion rate

    Proportion of infants who have more than 8 protective antibody titers after three primary vaccinations, depending on protective state before vaccination.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the third vaccination in the 4 Eupolio group / 4 weeks after the first and second vaccination in the 3bOPV+2Eupolio group

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 2023 to primary completion in Nov 2024, 21 months.

Of 35 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Poliomyelitis, half reached primary completion within 15 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 21. This study's 21 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 44 studies reached it within 12 months; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 21.

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 6, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
