Study information

Study designRandomised, controlled study with three parallel groups with balanced allocation (1:1:1).
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeNot Specified
Scientific title
Study acronymRota014
Study objectivesThis study was undertaken to identify whether the immunogenicity of live Oral Poliovirus (OPV) vaccine was affected by the concomitant administration of the candidate Human Rotavirus (HRV) vaccine and also to assess the safety of the candidate HRV vaccine given concomitantly with poliovirus vaccine (OPV or IPV). The study was conducted in two parts, the first part (subset enrolled before the start of the 2002 Rotavirus [RV] season) and the second part of the study (subset enrolled after the end of the 2002 rotavirus season).

Objective:
To demonstrate that co-administering HRV vaccine with OPV does not induce a significant decrease in poliovirus immune response one month after the third dose of polio vaccine.
Ethics approval(s)Ethics approval received in 2001
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedVaccine/immunisation
InterventionTwo doses of GSK Biologicals’ oral live attenuated human rotavirus (HRV) vaccine (RIX4414) at 106.5 CCID50 viral concentration, one dose of placebo
Control: three doses of placebo
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Live attenuated human rotavirus vaccine (RIX4414), oral poliovirus vaccine
Primary outcome measureSeroprotection for each polio serotype:
1. Proportion of subjects with anti-poliovirus type 1 antibody titre greater than or equal to 1:8 one month after the third dose
2. Proportion of subjects with anti-poliovirus type 2 antibody titre greater than or equal to 1:8 one month after the third dose
3. Proportion of subjects with anti-poliovirus type 3 antibody titre greater than or equal to 1:8 one month after the third dose
Secondary outcome measures1. Proportion of subjects with vaccine take one month after each dose of study vaccine at visits 2 and 3 for subset before RV season
2. Proportion of subjects with vaccine take one month after each dose of study vaccine at visits 3 and 4 for subset after RV season*
3. Viral shedding in a subset of subjects
4. Presence of rotavirus in diarrhoeal stools collected between visits 1 and 3 for subset before RV season, and between visits 1 and 4 for subset after RV season
5. Antibody titres for anti-poliovirus type 1, anti-poliovirus type 2, anti-poliovirus type 3 one month after the third dose
6. Serum anti-rotavirus IgA (immunoglobulin A) antibody titres in subjects in the subset before RV season at study visits 1 to 3
7. Serum anti-rotavirus IgA antibody titres in subjects in the subset after RV season at study visits 2 to 4
8. For each type of solicited symptom, occurrence of the symptom within the 15-day (day 0-14) solicited follow-up period after each study vaccine dose
9. Occurrence of unsolicited adverse events within 43 (day 0–42) days after each study vaccine dose, according to World Health Organization (WHO) classification
10. Occurrence of serious adverse events (SAEs) throughout the entire study period (including long term follow-up for 6 months after Dose 2 of HRV vaccine/placebo)

*Not done since no stool samples were collected after RV season

Completion date01/01/2003
