| NCT02545517 | A Phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate Long-term Immunogenicity and Boostability of Purified Chick-Embryo Cell Rabies Vaccine in Adults Following Primary Series of Pre/Exposure Prophylaxis. | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 459 | — | — | Oct 5, 2015 | Dec 23, 2022 | Jul 18, 2024 | 7 | Austria, Germany +1 |
A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in one or more of the following: death, is life-threatening, required/prolonged hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/or birth defect, an important and significant medical event that may not be immediately life threatening or resulting in death or hospitalization but, based upon appropriate medical judgment, may jeopardize the participants or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed. Safety is assessed as the number of participants reporting SAEs after a booster dose of PCEC rabies vaccine administered in this extension study, if RNVA concentrations were \<0.5 IU/mL, following a primary series of accelerated or conventional rabies pre-exposure (PrEP) intramuscular (IM) regimen in the parent study.
RVNA antibody concentrations were measured in terms of Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs) and expressed in IU/mL. The booster dose was administered in this Extension study (conducted from Year 3 to Year 9 after the primary schedule study) only when participants had RVNA concentrations \<0.5 IU/mL at the yearly immunogenicity check (i.e., at "Scheduled Clinic Visit"). Booster dose administration occurred at an approximate timepoint between 6 and 9 months from the previous "Scheduled Clinic Visit" during the Years 3 to 9.
GMR was calculated as ratio of post booster dose RVNA GMCs (7-day post booster dose) to the baseline RVNA GMCs (7 days before booster dose). The booster dose was administered in this Extension study (conducted from Year 3 to Year 9 after the primary schedule study) only when participants had RVNA concentrations \<0.5 IU/mL at the yearly immunogenicity check (i.e., at "Scheduled Clinic Visit"). Booster dose administration occurred at an approximate timepoint between 6 and 9 months from the previous "Scheduled Clinic Visit" during the Years 3 to 9.
