Study summary

The study is designed as a Phase III, double-blind, multi-center, randomized, active-controlled study in which four groups of participants (n=554 per group) will receive either one of three different manufacturing lots of SII-YFV or STAMARIL® - a licensed and WHO pre-qualified YFV.

Read the detailed description

The study is designed as a Phase III, double-blind, multi-center, randomized, active-controlled study in which four groups of participants (n=554 per group) will receive either one of three different manufacturing lots of SII-YFV or STAMARIL® - a licensed and WHO pre-qualified YFV.

A single dose of either SII-YFV or STAMARIL® will be administered concomitantly with an MMR and a Men A vaccine. The study will start only after the approval from the applicable ethics committees and national regulatory agencies. Following parental / guardian consent, participants will be screened for eligibility based on the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria for the trial. There will be three scheduled visits during the study. A screening and vaccination visit (Day 0) followed by additional study visits on Day 28 and on Day 180 post-vaccination.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Fever (> 37.5°C) or any acute infection at time of vaccination [Temporary exclusion criteria - participants may be rescreened at least 48 hours after the last recorded fever].
  2. Previous history of laboratory confirmed infection with yellow fever, measles, mumps, rubella, Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A, and other flaviviruses e.g., dengue fever, tick-borne-encephalitis (TBE), Japanese encephalitis (JE), West Nile virus (WNV), zika virus, etc.

Receipt of any other product or unlicensed medication in the preceding 28 days, or planned use until completion of Day 28 visit 7. Presence of significant malnutrition (weight-for-height z-score \< -3SD)
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

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.

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.

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.

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.

Interventions

  • BiologicalSII Yellow Fever Vaccine

    SII YF vaccine: Live attenuated Yellow Fever Virus (17D-213 Strain) not less than 1000 IU/dose propagated in specific pathogen-free chick embryos. SII-YFV contains the 17D-213 vaccine strain, a derivative of 17D-204 strain which is used in many currently produced yellow fever vaccines. SIIPL imported the YF WHO Primary Seed Virus lot 213-77 from National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) for preparation of the master seed virus, working seed virus and the vaccine. After reconstitution, 1 dose (0.5 mL) contains: * Yellow fever virus 17D-213 strain (live, attenuated) not less than 1000 IU propagated in specific pathogen-free chick embryos * Excipients with known effects: * This product contains approximately 5 mg of sorbitol per dose.

  • BiologicalSTAMARIL®

    STAMARIL® contains the 17D-204 vaccine strain, which is used in many currently produced yellow fever vaccines. STAMARIL® is specific pathogen free embryonated hen's egg based and is prepared by harvesting and stabilizing the virus collected from the homogenized chicken embryos infected with YF vaccine virus. STAMARIL® will be used as a comparator in the study. It is a live, attenuated, freeze-dried (lyophilized) vaccine and is to be reconstituted with solvent. After reconstitution, 1 dose (0.5 mL) contains: * Yellow fever virus 17D-204 strain (live, attenuated) not less than 1000 IU propagated in specific pathogen-free chick embryos * Excipients with known effects: * This product contains approximately 8 mg of sorbitol (E420) per dose.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. YF neutralizing antibody (NAb) seroconversion

    Non-inferiority of the immune responses generated by SII-YFV compared to STAMARIL® in terms of YF neutralizing antibody (NAb) seroconversion rates as determined by plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50). Percentage seroconversion\* on Day 28 post-vaccination \* Seroconversion is defined as a four-fold rise in YF NAb (PRNT50) titres from baseline

    Time frame: Day 28 post-vaccination

Secondary outcomes

  1. Yellow Fever Vaccine GMTs

    GMTs on Day 0 pre-vaccination and Day 28 post-vaccination Equivalence of the immune responses generated by three different manufacturing lots of SII-YFV

    Time frame: Day 0 pre-vaccination and Day 28 post-vaccination
