Scientific title | Evaluation of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) in patients with myeloma and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia |
Study objectives | Null hypotheses: 1. The pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) will not provide adequate immunity from pneumococcal disease as measured by antibody levels 2. The pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) does not prime the immune system, resulting in improved responses to subsequent vaccination with the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine |
Ethics approval(s) | The proposal was reviewed following submission to Central Office for Research Ethics Committees (COREC) by Salford and Trafford Local Research Ethics Committee on the 8th November 2005. The Research Ethics Committee reference number: 05/Q1404/229. The Committee was content to give a favourable opinion subject to clarification of points raised at the interview. Final approval has now been received dated 28/11/05. |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia |
Intervention | All study participants will be required to undertake three or four scheduled visits. If the patient is being seen regularly for follow up in the clinic, the trial visits will be scheduled to coincide with these to minimise the number of additional attendances. Visit 1: the potential participants will be informed in detail about the study and given the opportunity to ask any further questions. If they wish to participate they will be formally screened against the exclusion criteria. Provided no contraindications are identified, they will be asked to sign a consent form. Predictable risks and inconveniences will be discussed. A full medical history will be taken, concurrent medication documented and physical examination performed. Details of disease stage will be obtained from the medical records. A case report form has been designed specifically to document all information required and to ensure standardisation. A small blood sample (6 ml) will then be taken for pre-immunisation antibody levels and evaluation of other markers of immune status. Vaccination with the conjugate vaccine will then be administered. Visit 2: this will take place 8-10 weeks following visit 1. The case report form will be completed in a similar manner. A 2 ml blood sample is required for post-vaccination antibody levels. Following this, the second vaccination with the conjugate vaccine will be administered. Visit 3: this will take place 8-10 weeks after the second visit. The case report form will be completed. If the patient has received the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccination in the previous five years, the study will terminate at this point and a blood sample will be taken for antibody response and other markers of immune status (6 ml will be required). Subjects who have not received the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine in the last five years will be vaccinated with this vaccine on this visit. From the group of patients receiving the vaccine only 2 ml of blood is required for post vaccination antibody levels. Visit 4: only individuals vaccinated at visit 3 will be requested to attend. The visit will take place 6-8 weeks after the third visit. Blood samples will be taken for post immunisation antibody levels and other markers of immune status (6 ml blood). Participants will also be asked if they would be available to attend for one extra visit for an additional blood test only, one week after the second vaccination. This test is optional and supplementary and aims to evaluate how the vaccine is stimulating another aspect of the immune response (cell mediated immunity), which may also be important in providing protection from disease. 15 ml of blood will be needed for this supplementary test. |

Phase | Not Specified |
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Prevenar |
Primary outcome measure | To determine whether the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) can provide immunity from invasive pneumococcal disease in a group of haematology patients at high risk of infective complications |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. To determine whether the immune response to the conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) differs between individuals naive to the 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine and those who have received at least one previous dose 2. To assess whether the response to subsequent vaccination with the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine is enhanced by prior vaccination with the conjugate vaccine (Prevenar) 3. To determine the optimum dosage and schedule of the conjugate vaccine 4. To evaluate the immune response in relation to disease related variables. These will include disease stage, treatment and laboratory markers of the immune system function as a whole. This will improve our understanding of the mechanisms resulting in vaccine success and failure. |
