Phase 1

Detailed Description

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common viral cause of serious acute lower respiratory illness (LRI) in infants and children under 5 years of age worldwide. This study evaluated the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of a single dose of RSV D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII, a recombinant live-attenuated RSV vaccine, in RSV-seronegative infants and children 6 to 24 months of age.

Participants were randomly assigned to receive a single dose of the D46/NS2/N/ΔM2-2-HindIII vaccine or placebo (administered as nose drops) at study entry (Day 0).

Participants could be enrolled in the study outside of RSV season (between April 1 and October 14 for most sites or-for sites with local RSV seasons that start earlier-as specified on a site-by-site basis in the Manual Of Procedures). All participants remained on study until they completed the post-RSV season visit between April 1 and April 30 in the calendar year following enrollment. Participants' total study duration was between 6 and 13 months, depending on when they enrolled in the study. Participants attended several study visits throughout the study, which included physical examinations, blood collection, and nasal washes. Participants' parents or guardians were contacted by study staff at various times during the study to monitor participants' health.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Solicited Adverse Events (AEs) by Grade [Measured from Day 0 through Day 28]

    Solicited adverse events included fever; otitis media; upper respiratory illness (URI); lower respiratory illness (LRI) and cough (without LRI). The number of participants who experienced solicited adverse events was presented. A participant was only counted once in each solicited AE category, and that was in the line corresponding to the highest grade adverse event they had in that category. These events were graded (Grade 1-mild to Grade 4-life-threatening) following protocol-defined grading system outlined in Table 3 and Table 4 in the protocol document.

  2. Number of Participants With Unsolicited AEs by Grade [Measured from Day 0 through Day 28]

    Unsolicited adverse events were other events, not included in the solicited AEs. The number of participants who experienced solicited adverse events was presented. A participant was only counted once in each unsolicited AE category, and that was in the line corresponding to the highest grade adverse event they had in that category. AE grading (Grade 1- mild to Grade 4-life-threatening) was done by DAIDS AE Grading table v2.0 (see References).

  3. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [Measured from Day 0 through Day 56]

    A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) was an AE, whether considered related to the study product or not, that: Resulted in death during the period of protocol-defined surveillance Was life threatening: defined as an event in which the patient was at immediate risk of death at the time of the event; it did not refer to an event that hypothetically might have caused death were it more severe Required inpatient hospitalization (or prolongation of existing hospitalization): defined as at least an overnight stay in the hospital or emergency ward for treatment that would have been inappropriate if administered in the outpatient setting Resulted in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity Was a congenital anomaly or birth defect Was an important medical event that might not be immediately life threatening or result in death or hospitalization but might jeopardize the patient or might require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

  4. Number of Participants Infected With RSV Vaccine Virus [Measured at Days 0, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, 17, and 28 for nasal washes, and at Days 0, 56 for serum RSV-neutralizing antibodies]

    Defined as 1) vaccine virus identified in a nasal wash from Study Day 0-28 (a binary outcome based on nasal washes) and/or 2) greater than or equal to 4-fold rise in RSV-neutralizing antibody titer from Study Day 0 and 56.

  5. Peak Titer of Vaccine Virus Shed [Measured at Days 0, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, 17, and 28]

    This is the highest value per participant of the titer of vaccine virus shed. It was measured by culture. Only participants who met the definition of infection with vaccine virus were included.

  6. Duration of Vaccine Virus Shedding in Nasal Washes [Measured at Days 0, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, 17, and 28. Last day positive is reported.]

    Determined separately by a) culture and b) reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)

  7. Number of Participants With a Greater Than or Equal to 4-fold Rise in Serum RSV-neutralizing Antibody Titer [Measured at Day 0 and Day 56]

    Immunogenicity was assessed pre-inoculation, and at approximately 2 months post-inoculation (Study Day 56). Antibody responses were defined as a greater than or equal to 4-fold increase in titer in paired specimens, between pre-inoculation and post-inoculation time points.

  8. Serum Antibody Responses to RSV F Glycoprotein as Assessed by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) [Measured at Day 56]

    Immunogenicity was assessed at approximately 2 months post-inoculation (Study Day 56).

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants Who Had Symptomatic, Medically Attended Respiratory and Febrile Illness, Among Those Who Experienced Natural Infection With wt RSV During the Subsequent RSV Season [Measured from November 1st through participant's post-RSV season surveillance visit]

    The number of participants who had RSV-associated, medically attended, acute respiratory illness (RSV-MAARI) or RSV-associated, medically attended, acute lower respiratory illness (RSV-MAALRI) among those who had RSV detected in nasal washes or greater than or equal to 4 fold rise in serum antibodies during the subsequent RSV season were presented.

  2. Magnitude of Serum RSV-neutralizing Antibody Responses in the Vaccine and Placebo Recipients Who Experienced Natural Infection With wt RSV During the Subsequent RSV Season. [Measured through participant's last study visit, up to a total of 6 to 13 months depending on when participants enrolled in the study]

    Only participants who had RSV detected in nasal washes or a greater than or equal to 4-fold rise in serum antibodies during the subsequent RSV season were included. RSV-neutralizing antibody titers were measured pre- and post-RSV surveillance season.

  3. Number of Participants With B Cell Responses to Vaccine [Measured at day 0 and Day 56]

    A B cell response to vaccine is indicated by a greater than or equal to 4-fold change in serum antibody titers to RSV F glycoprotein between the pre- and post-inoculation time points.

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Frequency of Mucosal Antibody Responses to Vaccine [Measured at Day 0, 28 and 56]

    Determined from nasal wash samples. This outcome has been changed from a secondary outcome measure to an 'other pre-specified' outcome measure. Since this outcome measure relies on previously untested assays to reliably quantify RSV specific mucosal antibodies from nasal wash samples, it was changed to other pre-specified to fit with its intended analysis type.

3. Primary Outcome
Title Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Description A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) was an AE, whether considered related to the study product or not, that: Resulted in death during the period of protocol-defined surveillance Was life threatening: defined as an event in which the patient was at immediate risk of death at the time of the event; it did not refer to an event that hypothetically might have caused death were it more severe Required inpatient hospitalization (or prolongation of existing hospitalization): defined as at least an overnight stay in the hospital or emergency ward for treatment that would have been inappropriate if administered in the outpatient setting Resulted in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity Was a congenital anomaly or birth defect Was an important medical event that might not be immediately life threatening or result in death or hospitalization but might jeopardize the patient or might require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.
