A Study of Dengue Vaccine in Healthy Children, Teenagers and Adults in India
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main aims of the study are to learn about side effects and a participant's immune response to Takeda's Dengue Vaccine when given twice within 3 months.
Participants will receive 2 doses of their randomized treatment (vaccine or placebo). Children, teenagers and adults will receive one dose of either the vaccine or placebo on Day 1 and the second dose of either the vaccine or placebo 3 months later. Up to 4 blood samples will be taken throughout the study.
During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 6 times.

Phase 3 |
Detailed Description
The vaccine being tested in this study is called TDV (Live, Attenuated). TDV is being tested to prevent dengue. This study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of TDV in healthy participants.
The study will enroll approximately 480 patients. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to receive either TDV or placebo- which will remain undisclosed to the participant, and investigator during the study:
-
Cohort 1, ≥18 to ≤60 Age Group: TDV
-
Cohort 1, ≥18 to ≤60 Age Group: Placebo
-
Cohort 2, ≥4 to <18 Age Group: TDV
-
Cohort 2, ≥4 to <18 Age Group: Placebo
This multi-center trial will be conducted in India. The overall duration of the study is approximately 9 months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of Participants with Solicited Local (Injection Site) Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1 [Within 7 days postvaccination at Day 1]
Solicited local AEs at injection site are defined as injection site pain, injection site erythema, and injection site swelling. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
- Number of Participants with Solicited Local Injection Site AEs, by Severity Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90 [Within 7 days postvaccination at Day 90]
Solicited local AEs at injection site are defined as injection site pain, injection site erythema, and injection site swelling. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
- Number of Participants with Solicited Systemic AEs by Severity Within 14 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1 [Within 14 days postvaccination at Day 1]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. Solicited systemic AEs assessments for children <6 years old include: drowsiness, irritability/fussiness, loss of appetite and fever, and those for children ≥ 6 years old/adolescent/adult include: headache, asthenia, malaise, myalgia and fever. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
- Number of Participants with Solicited Systemic AEs, by Severity Within 14 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90 [Within 14 days postvaccination at Day 90]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. Solicited systemic AEs assessments for children <6 years old include: drowsiness, irritability/fussiness, loss of appetite and fever, and those for children ≥ 6 years old/adolescent/adult include: headache, asthenia, malaise, myalgia and fever. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
- Percentage of Participants with Any Unsolicited AEs Within 28 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1 [Within 28 days postvaccination at Day 1]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
- Percentage of Participants with Any Unsolicited AEs Within 28 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90 [Within 28 days postvaccination at Day 90]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
- Percentage of Participants with an AE Leading to Participant Withdrawal from Trial [From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
- Percentage of Participants with an AE Leading to TDV or Placebo Discontinuation. [From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
- Percentage of Participants with a Medically-attended AE (MAAE) [From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)]
MAAEs are defined as AEs leading to an unscheduled visit to or by a healthcare professional including visits to an emergency department, but not fulfilling seriousness criteria.
- Percentage of Participants with a Serious Adverse Event (SAE) [From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)]
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/ incapacity, leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a participant, is an important medical event.

- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion for Each of the 4 Dengue Virus Serotypes [Day 1, Day 120 and Day 270]
Seroconversion rate, defined as the percentage of participants seropositive, is derived from the titers of dengue-neutralizing antibodies. Seropositive is defined as a reciprocal neutralizing titer ≥10. The 4 dengue virus serotypes are DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4.
- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion for Multiple (2, 3, or 4) Dengue Virus Serotypes [Day 1, Day 120 and Day 270]
Seroconversion rate, defined as the percentage of participants seropositive, is derived from the titers of dengue-neutralizing antibodies. Seropositive is defined as a reciprocal neutralizing titer ≥10. The 4 dengue virus serotypes are DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4.
