Overview
Brief Summary
This purpose of the study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of a GSK Biologicals' candidate tuberculosis vaccine (692342) when administered concomitantly with or after the Expanded Programme of Immunisation vaccines regimen to healthy infants aged between and including 2 and 7 months, living in a tuberculosis endemic region.
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Male and female subjects who the investigator believes that their parent(s)/ Legally Acceptable Representative (LAR(s)) can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol.
- •Written or oral, signed or thumb-printed and witnessed informed consent obtained from the subject's parent(s)/LAR(s).
- •Subjects who received their birth dose of Bacille Calmette Guerrin.
- •Healthy subjects as established by medical history and clinical examination before entering into the study.
- •For the 'Outside Expanded Programme on Immunisation' cohort:
- •Must have documented evidence that he/she has completed the primary Expanded Programme on Immunisation regimen at least 1 month prior to planned vaccination with investigational vaccination regimen.
- •Aged between 5 and 7 months at the time of the first study vaccination.
- •For the 'Within EPI' cohort:
- •Must have received the birth dose of Bacille Calmette Guerrin, oral polio vaccine and Hepatitis B vaccine but NO further Expanded Programme on Immunisation vaccines.
- •Aged between 2 and 4 months at the time of the first study vaccination with diphtheria, tetanus, whole cell pertussis/ Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine + pneumococcal conjugate vaccine + oral polio vaccine.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Child in care
- •Acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal abnormality, as determined by physical examination and/or laboratory screening tests.
- •Laboratory screening tests out of range, which in the investigator's opinion affects the ability of the child to take part in the study.
- •Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination.
- •A family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
- •Major congenital defects.
- •History of any neurological disorders or seizures.
- •Any condition or illness or medication, which in the opinion of the investigator might interfere with the evaluation of the safety or immunogenicity of the study vaccine.
- •Any other findings that the investigator feels would increase the risk of having an adverse outcome from participation in the trial.
- •Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrolment.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms After Dose 1, Dose 2 and Across Doses
Time Frame: From Day 0 to Day 6
Solicited local symptoms assessed were pain, redness and swelling. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 20 millimeters (mm) of injection site.
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms After Dose 2, Dose 3 and Across Doses.
Time Frame: From Day 0 to Day 6
Solicited local symptoms were only collected after Dose 2 of EPI vaccination. Solicited local symptoms assessed were pain, redness and swelling. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 20 millimeters (mm) of injection site.
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited General Symptoms After Dose 1, Dose 2 and Across Doses.
Time Frame: From Day 0 to Day 6
Solicited general symptoms assessed were drowsiness, fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\], irritability/fussiness and loss of appetite. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever \> 39.0 °C.
Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Time Frame: From Month 0 to Month 17
Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Solicited General Symptoms After Dose 2, Dose 3 and Across Doses.
Time Frame: From Day 0 to Day 6
Solicited general symptoms were only collected after Dose 2 of EPI vaccination. Solicited general symptoms assessed were drowsiness, fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\], irritability/fussiness and loss of appetite. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever \> 39.0 °C.
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: From Day 0 to Day 29
An unsolicited adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Number of Subjects With Grade 3 Haematological and Biochemical Levels
Time Frame: At Month 8
Haematological/Biochemical parameters assessed were: Haemoglobin (Haem), White Blood Cells (WBC), Platelets (PLA), Alanine Aminotransferase (ALA) and Creatinine (CREA). Grade 3 = Haem.: \< 5.0 g/dL; WBC.: 1.0 to 1.4 x 10³/µL; PLA.: \< 25x10³/µL; ALA.: 5.1 to 10.0 x ULN and CREA: 3.1 to 6.0 x ULN.
