Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) From Baseline in Antibody Level
Baseline (Day 1) to Day 14 postvaccination

Geometric mean fold rise is calculated as the natural logarithm of the ratio of Day 14 and baseline antibody titers.

Number of Participants With Vaccine-related Serious Adverse Experiences
Baseline (Day 1) to Day 84 postvaccination

Vaccine-related adverse experiences are those determined by the investigator to be possibly, probably, or definitely vaccine-related.

Number of Participants With a Positive Immune Response, Defined as a Change in Antibody Level Greater Than or Equal to a 2-fold-rise at Day 14 Compared to Baseline
Baseline and Day 14 postvaccination

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies were measured by a LUMINEX(TM) assay.

Geometric Mean Antibody Concentrations (GMC)
Day 14 postvaccination

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies were measured by a LUMINEX(TM) assay.

Change in Antibody Concentration (Titer) at Day 14 Compared to Baseline, Expressed as the Geometric Mean Fold-rise (GMFR)
Baseline and Day 14 postvaccination

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies were measured by a LUMINEX(TM) assay. The GMFR is the ratio of the antibody concentration at Day 14 to the antibody concentration at baseline.

Number of Vaccine-related Serious Adverse Experiences
Up to Day 360 postvaccination

Investigators were instructed to determine the seriousness and causality (relatedness to test vaccine) of each AE based on criteria defined in the protocol: A serious adverse event (SAE) is any AE that: * results in death, * is life threatening, * results in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, * results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization, * is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, * is a cancer, * is an overdose, * or is another important medical event that may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

Number of Vaccine-related Serious Adverse Experiences Following Vaccination
Through Day 84 postvaccination

Participants with a serious vaccine-related adverse experiences (AE) (an AE which is assessed by an investigator/qualified physician as being related to study vaccine and results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization, is life-threatening, a congenital anomaly/birth defect, a cancer, or an overdose).

Number of Participants With ≥2-fold Rise in Antibody Titer From Baseline at Day 14 Postvaccination
Baseline and Day 14 postvaccination

Frequently asked questions about V710

What is V710 used for?

V710 is being developed for the prevention of Staphylococcal infection. It is a monoclonal antibody studied as a vaccine candidate against Staphylococcus aureus. All clinical work to date has been in healthy adult volunteers rather than in patients with active infection.

Who makes V710?

V710 is developed by Merck & Company, Inc., which trades under the ticker MRK. Merck sponsored the Phase 1 clinical program evaluating the candidate, including the first-in-man study and subsequent safety and immunogenicity trials in healthy volunteers.

What phase is V710 in?

V710 is in Phase 1 clinical development. Three Phase 1 trials have been completed, and no trials are currently active. The program enrolled 228 participants in total across randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies conducted in healthy volunteers.

What clinical trials is V710 in?

V710 has been studied in three completed Phase 1 trials: NCT00303069, the first-in-man study with 124 participants; NCT01324440, which evaluated a single dose with or without Merck aluminum adjuvant in 64 participants; and NCT00735839, conducted in 40 healthy male Japanese subjects.

Is V710 the same as Merck 0657nI?

Yes. V710 is also referred to as Merck 0657nI, and trial records describe formulations such as V710 (30 µg) with MAA and V710 with MAA, where MAA is Merck aluminum adjuvant. These names refer to the same Merck Staphylococcus aureus vaccine candidate.

How was V710 studied in its clinical trials?

V710 trials were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, enrolling healthy volunteers aged 18 and older, with one study restricted to males aged 20 and older. The studies assessed safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a single dose, with or without Merck aluminum adjuvant.
