Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of Takeda's Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine Candidate (TDV) [previously DENVax] when administered intradermally in varied dosing schedules and via different methods of administration (conventional needle/syringe versus needle-free PharmaJet® injector).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: TDV
  • Drug: Placebo
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is an exploratory trial to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of vaccination with a tetravalent dengue vaccine (TDV) in healthy adults delivered intradermally using the conventional needle/syringe or a needle-free PharmaJet® injector.

Two (2) intradermal injections of either vaccine or placebo will be administered to qualified participants (one in each arm) on Day 0 of the study. A subsequent injection will also be given on Day 90 with either vaccine or placebo (in one arm only).

Participants will be evaluated for safety and dengue neutralizing antibody to all four serotypes. All participants will also be evaluated for injection site reactions and have blood drawn for viremia, neutralizing antibodies, cell mediated immunity and innate immunity.

Participants will be required to participate for approximately 10 months from recruitment and collection of data for primary outcomes (through Day 120) including collection of additional samples for measurement of longer term antibody titers (through Day 270).

This project has been funded in whole or in part with Federal funds from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. HHSN272201000034C.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants With Local (Injection Site) Adverse Events (AEs) After Either Vaccine Dose by Maximum Severity as Assessed by the Clinical Staff [28 Days after each dose]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product regardless of its causal relationship to the study treatment. Local injection site reactions were evaluated by the blinded clinical staff and include: erythema (redness), edema/induration (swelling), pain and pruritus (itching). Severity grades for erythema and edema are derived based on the Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID) toxicity grading longest diameters using the scale 0=none, 1=<15 millimeters (mm), 2=15 to 30 mm and 3=>30 mm (severe). Pain and itching were graded using the scale: 0=none to 4=requires ER visit or hospitalization. Local injection site reactions are presented as the percentage of participants experiencing a reaction, by reaction type, overall and by severity, using the participant's worst reported severity grade. Only categories for which there was at least 1 participant are reported.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AE) by Maximum Severity [28 Days after each dose]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product regardless of its causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are graded from Grade 0=None to Grade 4=Life threatening. AEs are presented as the percentage of participants experiencing an AE, overall and by severity, using the participant's worst reported severity grade.

  3. Percentage of Participants With Solicited Systemic AEs as Reported by the Participant Using a Memory Aid 14 Days After Either Vaccine Dose by Maximum Severity [14 days after each dose]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product regardless of its causal relationship to the study treatment. Systemic AEs solicited from the participant using a memory aid included: body temperature, headache, myalgia (muscle pain), arthralgia (joint pain), photophobia (sensitivity to light), fatigue (tiredness), body rash, nausea and vomiting. Systemic AEs were graded using the scale: Grade 0= none to Grade 4=Life threatening. Systemic reactions are presented as percentage of participants experiencing a reaction, by reaction type, overall and by severity, using the participant's worst reported severity grade. Only categories for which there was at least 1 participant are reported.

  4. Percentage of Participants With Solicited Local AEs as Reported by the Participant Using a Memory Aid 14 Days After Either Vaccine Dose by Maximum Severity [14 days after each dose]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product regardless of its causal relationship to the study treatment. Local injection site AEs solicited from the participant using a memory aid included: erythema (redness), edema/induration (swelling), pain and pruritus (itching). Local injection site reactions are presented as the percentage of participants experiencing a reaction, by reaction type, overall and by severity, using the participant's worst reported severity grade.

  5. Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited Vaccine-Related AEs Within 28 Days After Either Vaccine Dose by Maximum Severity [28 Days after each dose]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product regardless of its causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are graded from Grade 0=None to Grade 4=Life threatening. AEs are presented as the percentage of participants experiencing an AE causally related to the study treatment as assessed by the investigator, overall and by severity, using the participant's worst reported severity grade. Only categories for which there was at least 1 participant are reported.

  6. Percentage of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Values Reported as Adverse Events (AEs) [118 Days]

    The percentage of participants with any clinically relevant abnormal safety laboratory values (chemistry, hematology and urinalysis) collected from vaccine dose 1 (Day 0) through 28 days after dose 2 (Day 90) that were reported as AEs. Abnormal laboratory values were reported as AEs based on the following criteria: Grade 3 (Severe) or Grade 4 (Life threatening) laboratory abnormalities based on DMID toxicity tables or laboratory abnormalities which resulted in a medical intervention.

  7. Seroconversion Rates (SCR) for Each of the Four Dengue Serotypes After First Injection [Day 28]

    Seroconversion rate is defined as the percentage of participants with PRNT50 titer ≥ 10 or, if the titer on Day 0 is greater than 10, a four-fold rise in antibody titer.

  8. Seroconversion Rates (SCR) for Each of the Four Dengue Serotypes After Second Injection [Day 118]

    Seroconversion rate is defined as the percentage of participants with PRNT50 titer ≥ 10 or, if the titer on Day 0 is greater than 10, a four-fold rise in antibody titer.

  9. Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited Vaccine-Related SAEs [Dose 1 until 28 days after Dose 2 (Up to Day 118)]

    A serious adverse event (SAE) is any AE in the view of the investigator that results in any of the following outcomes: death, life threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other serious outcomes.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Geometric Mean Titers of Neutralizing Antibody Titers Against Each of the Four Dengue Serotypes [Days 0, 28, 90, 118 and 270]

  2. Seroconversion Rates (SCR) for Each of the Four Dengue Serotypes at Days 90 and 270 [Days 90 and 270]

    Seroconversion rate is defined as the percentage of participants with PRNT50 titer ≥ 10 or, if the titer on Day 0 is greater than 10, a four-fold rise in antibody titer.

  3. Percentage of Participants With Serotype-Specific DENVax RNA Detected Due to Each of the Four Dengue Vaccine Components After Each Vaccination [Day 0 to Day 104]

    A quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay was used for detection and serotype identification of dengue viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) that is present in serum. A test for viremia is considered positive if the assay value is >= 3.6, which is the limit of quantification (LOQ), negative if the assay value was zero, and undetermined if the assay value is >0 but <3.6. The percentage of participants with positive results is reported.
