Seroconversion was defined as the appearance of anti-RV IgA antibody concentrations greater than or equal to (≥) 20 units per milliliter (U/mL) in subjects initially (i.e. prior to the first dose of Rotarix™ vaccine or placebo) seronegative, when administered concomitantly with the second and third routine EPI immunization. This outcome measure only concerns subjects in the Placebo-Rotarix-Rotarix Group.

Number of Subjects Reporting Grade "2" or Grade "3" Fever, Vomiting or Diarrhea

Frequently asked questions about Rotarix

What is Rotarix used for?

Rotarix is a vaccine being studied for the prevention of rotavirus infection, a common cause of severe diarrhea in infants and young children. It is also being evaluated in the context of Hepatitis B. The vaccine is administered orally and is intended for use in healthy infants and children.

Who makes Rotarix?

Rotarix is developed by GSK plc, a global biopharma company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker GSK. GSK is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of Rotarix in various populations, including infants and children.

What phase is Rotarix in?

Rotarix is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed 11 clinical trials with a total enrollment of 14,586 participants. These trials have evaluated the vaccine in different age groups, including infants as young as 6 weeks and adults up to 18 years and older.

What clinical trials is Rotarix in?

Rotarix has been studied in several clinical trials, including NCT00429481, which assessed efficacy and immune response in healthy infants, and NCT03207750, which evaluated co-administration with routine infant vaccines. Other trials, such as NCT01086436 and NCT01162590, focused on safety in Chinese children and adults.

Is Rotarix the same as the liquid human rotavirus vaccine?

Rotarix is a human rotavirus vaccine developed by GSK. In clinical trials, it has been compared to GSK's licensed lyophilized vaccine formulation. The studies aim to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the liquid version of Rotarix when co-administered with other routine childhood vaccines.
