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

  1. Chinese male or female adults aged ≥ 18 years;
  2. Participants with dirty or contaminated wounds caused by various injury who require passive immunization as prophylaxis against tetanus;
  3. Participants who provide signed written form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Known or suspected allergy to the product or its , or have a history of allergy to human immunoglobulin products or other therapeutic monoclonal immunoglobulins;
  2. Suspect or diagnosed as tetanus;
  3. Previously diagnosed as Immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency with anti-IgA antibodies
  4. Prior vaccination history of ≥ 3 doses of tetanus toxoid or tetanus toxoid- containing vaccine;
  5. Current alcohol abuse, drug abuse or drug addiction

Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply

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.

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.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With ∆Titers ≥0.01 IU/mL at 12 Hours Post-dose

    The change of anti-tetanus neutralizing antibody titers from baseline were defined as ΔTiters, calculated as the post-administration antibody titers minus the baseline antibody titers. The antibody protective level is ΔTiters ≥0.01 IU/mL.

    Time frame: Baseline up to 12 hours after receipt of study drug

Secondary outcomes

  1. Tetanus Protection Rate on Day 28 Post-dose

    The tetanus protection rate is defined as 1 minus the incidence of tetanus in the study population. The table presents the number of participants who remained free from clinical tetanus over the specified time frame.

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after receipt of study drug

Other outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With ΔTiters ≥0.01 IU/mL on Days 3, 7, 28, and 90 Post-dose.

    The change of anti-tetanus neutralizing antibody titers from baseline were defined as ΔTiters, calculated as the post-administration antibody titers minus the baseline antibody titers. The antibody protective level is ΔTiters ≥0.01 IU/mL.

    Time frame: Up to 90 days after receipt of study drug

  2. ∆Titers at 12 Hours, and on Days 3, 7, 28 and 90 Post-dose

    The change of anti-tetanus neutralizing antibody titers were defined as ΔTiters, calculated as the post-administration antibody titers minus the baseline antibody titers. The antibody protective level is ΔTiters \>0.01 IU/mL.

    Time frame: At 12 hours, and on Days 3, 7, 28 and 90 post-dose

  3. Tetanus Protection Rate on Days 90 and 105 Post-dose

    The tetanus protection rate is defined as 1 minus the incidence of tetanus in the study population. The table presents the number of participants who remained free from clinical tetanus over the specified time frame.

    Time frame: Up to 105 days after receipt of study drug

  4. TNM002 Serum Concentration

    Arithmetic mean concentrations of TNM002 at each specified timepoint

    Time frame: pre-dose, 12h, and Days 3, 7, 28, 90 post-dose

  5. Anti-drug Antibodies (ADA) Against TNM002

    The positive rate of ADA in the TNM002 group at each specified timepoint

    Time frame: pre-dose, and Days 7, 28, and 90 post-dose
