简要总结
This will be a study of the safety of MSP 3 LSP candidate malaria vaccine in children aged 1-2 years in Burkina Faso. Three imminizations at 28 day intervals will be administratered subcuteneously on the shoulder region. The study will compare MSP3 with Engerix B vaccine to evaluate whether it is just as safe to give to children in malaria endemic country. The study will also evaluate whether the vaccine induces the expected immune responses. Two dose levels of MSP 3 will be evaluated; 15µg and 30µg to determine the one with the best safety and immune response profile.
详细描述
The study is a single centre randomized controlled and blinded study (observer blind). It will be conducted at the CNRFP Vaccinology unit located in Balonghin. Children in the catchments area within the 1-2 years age group, whose parents consent will be screened to randomise 45 eligible participants. Two MSP 3 dose levels will be evaluated; 15µg and 30µg. The study will start with immunizing older children with the lowest dose observing safety parameters closely, then proceed to to the higher dose with a two week of observation apart.
Clinical, biological and immune response data gathered after vaccination with 15µg and 30µg MSP 3 LSP will be compared to:
- The children's baseline data before vaccinations, and
- The post vaccination data of children in the control group.
Randomization will ensure that the comparison groups are similar in relevant characteristics at baseline. The concealment of allocation before enrolment will further enforce the randomisation. Individuals who will make the assessment of the study end points will be completely blinded of the vaccine administered. This will ensure that there is no observer bias. Further, reporting or information bias will be minimised, because the recipients will also not be aware of which vaccine they have been administered. This is possible because the selected control vaccine has not been in routine use in this area, and has only now been recommended by the Ministry of Health. Cross over immunisation at the end of the trial will involve only those children who will received the study vaccine; they will be administered the control vaccine in the interest of public health benefits for them.
The schedule of vaccination at 0, 1 and 2 months has been adopted because it is suitable for the target group. The idea is to eventually deploy the vaccine through the expanded programme on immunisation should the vaccine become registered for public use. For the EPI age group, it is not only an efficient delivery mechanism, but they are also the most vulnerable group to malaria.
