A Phase 3 interventional study of Rabies Vaccine（Human Diploid Cell）for Human Use,Freeze-dried and Rabies Vaccine（Human Diploid Cell）for Human Use,Freeze-dried in Rabies, sponsored by Ab&B Bio-tech Co., Ltd.JS. Active, not recruiting at 5 sites in China. Open to participants aged 10 Years to 60 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-10-28.

A total of 3,000 participants will be enrolled, stratified by age into two groups: 600 participants aged 10-17 years and 2,400 participants aged 18-60 years. Within each age group, participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio to one of five vaccination schedule groups: Essen Control Group (Group A), Essen Experimental Group (Group B), Zagreb Experimental Group (Group C), Simplified Four-Dose Group 1 (Group D), and Simplified Four-Dose Group 2 (Group E).
Among participants in the four experimental groups-Essen Experimental Group, Zagreb Experimental Group, Simplified Four-Dose Group 1, and Simplified Four-Dose Group 2-stratified block randomization will be applied. Within each age group and each vaccination schedule group, participants will be further randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio into three subgroups: those receiving a booster dose at Day 90 after completion of the primary immunization, those receiving a booster dose at Day 180, and those undergoing assessment of immune persistence at Day 360 after completion of the primary immunization.
114 studies on the registry are indexed under Rabies; 15 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 3,000 is above the median of 201 across 104 interventional studies indexed under Rabies.

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.
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.
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.
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 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.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
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.

The vaccine will be administered via intramuscular injection into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm, with a human dose of 1.0 ml per injection. A total of 5 doses will be administered at Day 0, 3, 7, 14, and 28. Some participants will also undergo re-exposure immunization, receiving one additional dose of the vaccine on Days 0 and 3 of the re-exposure phase.

Started Feb 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Nov 2026, 9 months after the start.
Of 19 phase 3 interventional studies under Rabies, half reached primary completion within 15 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 21. This study's planned 9 months is below that.
Primary completion moved once since we started tracking on Sep 25, 2026: Apr 2026 → Nov 2026, on Oct 28, 2026.
