Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Healthy
Interventions
Biological: REPEVAX
Biological: Monovalent Tetanus vaccine
Registration Number
NCT00928785
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that a combined adult Tdap-IPV vaccine (REPEVAX®) will provide similar rapid antibody responses against tetanus toxoid as a tetanus toxoid vaccine alone in healthy adults.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Healthy adults aged ≥18 years
  • Last booster with a T-containing vaccine received 5 to 10 years prior to the administration of the study vaccine (documented by written evidence)
  • Subject with vaccination history of a primary immunisation with a tetanus, diphtheria and poliomyelitis containing vaccine as recommended in the local vaccination calendar
  • Negative urine pregnancy test for female subjects of child-bearing potential. A female subject who is of reproductive potential must agree to remain abstinent or use (or have her partner use) acceptable methods of birth control during the study period
  • Subject having signed the informed consent form prior to participation in the study
Exclusion Criteria
  • Acute severe illness or fever (>=38.0°C) within the last 3 days

  • Hypersensitivity or known allergy to one of the components of one of the study vaccines (including formaldehyde, streptomycin, neomycin, polymyxin B, or glutaraldehyde)

  • Anaphylactic or other allergic reactions to a previous dose of a vaccine containing diphtheria or tetanus toxoids or poliomyelitis viruses or pertussis (acellular or whole cell)

  • Guillain Barré syndrome or neuropathy of brachial plexus following a previous vaccination with a tetanus toxoid containing vaccine

  • Known encephalopathy after receipt of a pertussis vaccine or neurological disorders after an injection with the same antigens

  • Progressive or unstable neurological disorder, uncontrolled seizures or progressive encephalopathy not stabilized

  • Known malignant disease, note:

    • subjects with prostate or breast cancer who are not on chemotherapeutic drugs (other than hormone blocking drugs),
    • subjects with skin cancer who are not receiving radiation therapy or chemotherapy, and
    • subjects with a history of other malignancies who have been disease-free for at least 5 years will be eligible for enrollment
  • Immunosuppressive therapy:

    • High dose (≥ 20 mg/day prednisone equivalent) systemic (≥ 14 days) corticosteroid treatment daily or on alternate day within the last 28 days (inhaled corticosteroids allowed)
    • Chemotherapeutic agents used to treat cancer or other conditions
    • Treatments associated with organ or bone marrow transplantation
  • Immune dysfunction caused by a medical condition, or any other cause (e.g., congenital immunodeficiency, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, organ or bone marrow transplantation, leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, multiple myeloma or generalized malignancy)

  • Known severe thrombocytopenia or coagulation disorder contraindicating an intramuscular injection

  • Administration of blood products including immunoglobulins within the last 90 days or planned before Visit 3

  • Recent administration of a live vaccine (≤28 days) or an inactivated vaccine (≤14 days) or vaccination planned before Visit 3

  • For female subjects, pregnancy (positive pregnancy test before first blood sample) or breast-feeding through Visit 3

  • Planned participation in another clinical study during the present study period
