Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of an inactivated Enterovirus Type 71 (EV71) vaccine, manufactured by Sinovac, in healthy Vietnamese children aged 6 to 71 months.

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) is a common infectious disease in children, and EV71 is a major cause of severe complications and outbreaks in the Asia-Pacific region, including Vietnam. While this vaccine has demonstrated high efficacy and a favorable safety profile in previous clinical trials conducted in China, this study aims to generate specific bridging data for the Vietnamese pediatric population.

This is a single-armed bridging clinical trial that plans to enroll approximately 320 healthy participants. Each participant will receive two doses of the EV71 vaccine administered intramuscularly on a 0 and 30-day schedule. The primary objective is to assess the seroconversion rate of neutralizing antibodies 30 days after the second dose. Safety will be assessed by monitoring the incidence of adverse reactions and serious adverse events (SAEs) throughout the study duration (approximately 2 months).

  • Participants should provide verifiable identification, be reachable by the investigator and must be able to contact the investigator throughout the study period.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior history of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD);
  • Have been exposed to a case with laboratory-confirmed (virological diagnosis, e.g., via PCR or virus isolation) HFMD at home, day care, or other settings within 2 weeks before enrollment;
  • Prior participated in clinical trial of EV71 vaccine and received any EV71 vaccine;
  • Known allergy to vaccines or vaccine ingredients, or serious adverse reactions to vaccines, such as urticaria, dyspnea, angioneurotic edema;
  • Any known or history of diseases (including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) or immunodeficiency/ (such as infection, organ transplantation), asplenia;
  • Received immunosuppressive for ≥14 days (e.g., prednisone equivalent of ≥2 mg/kg), or cytotoxic drug before enrollment, or plans to receive these treatments during the study participation.
  • Receipt of blood products or immunoglobulins within the past 3 months before enrollment in this study, or scheduled to receive these treatments during the study period;
  • Receipt of other investigational vaccines within 30 days prior to vaccination in this study;
  • Receipt of other vaccines within 14 days prior to vaccination in this study;
  • Presence of any acute disease (moderate to severe illness, with or without fever) or an acute exacerbation of a chronic condition within the 7 days prior to vaccination in this study.
  • Has fever on the day of vaccination, with the axillary temperature ≥ 37.5 celsius before vaccination;
  • Is participating in or planning to participate in other vaccine or drug clinical trials;
  • According to the investigator's judgment, the participant has any other factors that might interfere with the clinical trial results or pose additional risk to the participant due to participation in the study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

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.

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.

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.

Autoimmune disease

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.

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.

HIV

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.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    EV71 Vaccine Group

    All participants will receive two intramuscular doses of the inactivated Enterovirus Type 71 (EV71) vaccine (0.5 mL per dose) on a 0 and 30-day schedule.

    Biological: EV71 vaccine

Interventions

  • BiologicalEV71 vaccine

    Time frame: 30 days after the second dose of vaccination

Secondary outcomes

  1. Seropositive rate of Enterovirus Type 71 (EV71) neutralizing antibodies

    Time frame: 30 days after the second dose of vaccination

  3. GMFR of Enterovirus Type 71 (EV71) neutralizing antibodies

    The geometric mean of the ratio of post-vaccination neutralizing antibody titer to pre-vaccination titer.

    Time frame: 30 days after the second dose of vaccination

  4. Incidence of adverse reactions within 30 days

    Incidence of adverse reactions within 30 days after each dose vaccination.

    Time frame: 30 days after each dose vaccination

  5. Incidence of adverse reactions within 7 days

    Incidence of adverse reactions within 7 days after each dose vaccination.

    Time frame: 7 days after each dose vaccination
