Study of Novel Types 1 and 3 Oral Poliomyelitis Vaccines
brief summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety (primary objective), the ability to trigger the production of antibodies (immunogenicity; a secondary objective) and presence of vaccine virus in the stool (fecal shedding; a secondary objective) of two novel oral polio vaccines (nOPV), novel oral poliomyelitis vaccine type 1 (nOPV1) and novel oral poliomyelitis vaccine type 3 (nOPV3), as compared to Sabin strain monovalent oral poliomyelitis vaccine (mOPV) controls, in healthy adults.
detailed description
This multicenter trial is the first-in-human assessment of two novel oral polio vaccines for poliovirus type 1 and type 3. It will be a 4-cohort, 8-arm, randomized, observer-blind, controlled trial, with Sabin monovalent vaccines serving as the control for each type:
Cohort 1: Healthy adults with an exclusive inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) prior vaccination history will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio and allocated to receive nOPV1 (Group 1) or mOPV1 (Group 2).
Cohort 2: Healthy adults with an OPV-containing prior vaccination history will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio and allocated to receive two doses of nOPV1 (Group 3) or mOPV1 (Group 4), respectively;
Cohort 3: Healthy adults with an exclusive IPV prior vaccination history will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio and allocated to receive nOPV3 (Group 5) or mOPV3 (Group 6);
Cohort 4: Healthy adults with an OPV-containing prior vaccination history will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to study groups 3 and 4 and allocated to receive two doses of nOPV3 (Group 7) or mOPV3 (Group 8), respectively.
