研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to test if the vaccine is working well in COPD patients aged 40 to 80 years old to reduce episodes of worsening symptoms ("exacerbations") and to gather further information on safety and immune response.
In the current study, COPD patients with a history of acute exacerbations will receive 2 doses of the investigational vaccine or placebo intramuscularly according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care.
The effect of vaccination against two pathogens known to cause exacerbations (Non-typeable Haemophilus influenza [NTHi] and Moraxella catarrhalis [Mcat]) will be evaluated at pre-defined timepoints (scheduled study visits).
In addition to the scheduled study visits, additional study visit(s) and/ or phone contact(s) will take place for each acute exacerbation of COPD occurring from first vaccination up to study conclusion.
详细描述
The purpose of this Phase IIB proof-of-concept (POC) study in moderate to very severe COPD patients (i.e. GOLD grade 2, 3 and 4) aged 40 to 80 years with a history of moderate or severe acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) in the previous 12 months is to evaluate whether the NTHi-Mcat vaccine can reduce the frequency of AECOPD in this population and to assess the vaccine's safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity.
Several formulations of a vaccine containing the NTHi antigens (low or high formulation) either non-adjuvanted or combined with different adjuvants (aluminium [Al], adjuvant system) were already evaluated in two previous Phase I clinical trials (NTHI-002 in healthy adults aged 18 - 40 years and NTHI-003 in current and former healthy smokers of 50-70 years old). The investigational vaccines were well-tolerated, with an acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile. These studies allowed the dose selection of the NTHi antigens (low formulation) and the adjuvant system currently evaluated for the first time in moderate and severe COPD patients aged 45 - 81 years in the Phase II study NTHI-004.
The safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of different formulations of the NTHi-Mcat investigational vaccine have been evaluated in the Phase I study in healthy adults aged 19 - 40 years and in current and former smokers aged 50 - 70 years (study NTHI MCAT-001). Based on results obtained up to 30 days post-Dose 2 from this study, the adjuvanted formulation containing NTHi proteins PD and PE-PilA and of UspA2 has been selected for evaluation in the current NTHI MCAT-002 study. Placebo will be used as a control. The NTHi-Mcat investigational vaccine and placebo will be given on top of standard of care to subjects in the respective study groups.
In the current study, moderate, severe and very severe COPD patients (i.e. GOLD grade 2, 3 and 4) with a history of AECOPD will receive 2 doses of the NTHi-Mcat investigational vaccine or placebo intramuscularly (IM) according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care.
Scheduled study visits, during which the effect of immunisation against NTHi and Mcat will be evaluated, will take place at pre-defined timepoints.

盲法说明
Data will be collected in an observer-blind manner. By observer-blind, it is meant that during the course of the study, the vaccine recipient and those responsible for the evaluation of any study endpoint (e.g. safety, reactogenicity and efficacy) will all be unaware of whether vaccine or placebo was administered. Each study site is responsible for having a blinding plan. To work in an observer-blind manner, vaccine preparation and administration will be done by authorised medical personnel who will not participate in any of the study clinical evaluation assays. Two teams of study personnel will hence be set up:
- A team of unblinded personnel (responsible for the preparation and the administration of the vaccines)
- A team of blinded personnel (responsible for the clinical evaluation of the subjects).

- •A documented history of a COPD exacerbation is a medical record of worsening COPD symptoms that required systemic/oral corticosteroids and/or antibiotics (for a moderate exacerbation) or hospitalization (for a severe exacerbation). Prior use of antibiotics alone does not qualify as an exacerbation history unless the use was associated with treatment of worsening symptoms of COPD, such as increased dyspnea, sputum volume, or sputum purulence. Subject verbal reports are not acceptable.
- •Capable of complying with the daily electronic Diary Card completion throughout the study period, according to investigator's judgement at Visit
- •Female subjects of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study. Non-childbearing potential is defined as pre-menarche, current bilateral tubal ligation or occlusion, hysterectomy, bilateral ovariectomy or post-menopause.
- •Female subjects of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study, if the subject:
- •has practiced adequate contraception for 30 days prior to vaccination, and has a negative pregnancy test on the day of vaccination, and has agreed to continue adequate contraception during the entire treatment period and for 2 months after completion of the vaccination series.
排除标准
- •Use of any investigational or non-registered product other than the study vaccine during the period starting 30 days before the first dose of study vaccine (Day -29 to Day 1), or planned use during the study period.
- •Any medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator would make intramuscular injection unsafe.
- •Administration of immunoglobulins or any blood products within the 3 months preceding the first dose of study vaccine or planned administration during the study period.
- •Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination.
- •Planned administration/ administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol in the period starting 30 days before the first dose and ending 30 days after the last dose of vaccine, with the exception of any influenza or pneumococcal vaccine which may be administered ≥15 days preceding or following any study vaccine dose.
- •Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the subject has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational vaccine/product.

- •Administration of systemic corticosteroids within the 30 days before first vaccination.
- •Subjects who received systemic corticosteroids within this period may be enrolled at a later date if enrolment is still open.
- •Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
- •Administration of systemic antibiotics within the 30 days before first vaccination.
- •Subjects who received systemic antibiotics within this period may be enrolled at a later date if enrolment is still open.
- •Chronic use of antibiotics for prevention of AECOPD (e.g. azithromycin).
- •Acute disease and/or fever at the time of first vaccination. Fever is defined as temperature ≥37.5°C. The preferred location for measuring temperature in this study will be the oral cavity or the axilla.

Subjects with allergic rhinitis do not need to be excluded and may be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator.
- •History of immune-mediated disease other than COPD. If the subject has any condition on the non-exhaustive list of potential immune-mediated diseases defined in the protocol, they must be excluded unless the aetiology is clearly documented to be non-immune mediated.

Rate of Moderate and Severe AECOPD (Any Cause)-Analysis (87% Confidence Interval [CI]), Post-dose 2 and Lasting for 1 Year
时间窗: From 1-month post-Dose 2 (at Day 91) up to study end (at Day 451)
Efficacy of the investigational vaccine was measured by the rate of moderate and severe AECOPD from 1-month post dose 2 up to study end (i.e. rate expressed per year and calculated as the total number of events over the follow-up exposure time). The CIs of the rate is computed using a model which accounts for repeated events. Anthonisen criteria used to detect potential AECOPD: Worsening of 2 or more of the following major symptoms for at least 2 consecutive days: dyspnoea, sputum volume, sputum purulence, OR Worsening of any major symptom together with any of the following minor symptoms for at least 2 consecutive days: sore throat, cold, fever without other cause, increased cough, increased wheeze. Moderate AECOPD requires treatment with systemic corticosteroids and/ or antibiotics. Severe AECOPD requires hospitalization. Confirmation of any AECOPD was as per investigator's judgement.
