简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of an anthrax vaccine. The vaccine schedule and dose will also be assessed.
详细描述
The safety and immunogenicity of AV7909 for post-exposure prophylaxis of anthrax will be evaluated using a randomized, parallel-group, active-controlled, double-blind design with three immunization schedules and two dose levels in healthy adult volunteers. Safety will be assessed by clinical laboratory tests (hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis), monitoring of adverse events, vital signs, and physical examinations. Reactogenicity (systemic and injection site reactions) will be assessed by the subjects using subject e-diaries for 7 days after each immunization and by the investigator at in-clinic visits 7 and 14 days after each immunization, and at other visits, if applicable. Immunogenicity will be measured as toxin neutralizing antibody (TNA) response and seroconversion rates.

结局指标
主要结局
Incidence of Adverse Events
时间窗: From the time of the first immunization on Day 0 through Day 84
Incidence of adverse events (including assessment of symptoms, physical exam findings, clinical laboratory tests, and vital signs) from the time of the first immunization on Day 0 through Day 84
Toxin Neutralizing Antibody (TNA) Level at Day 63
时间窗: Day 63
Immunogenicity measured by the lower bound (LB) of the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the proportion of subjects in each study arm with Day 63 TNA 50% neutralization factor (NF50) values greater than or equal to threshold
Incidence of Serious Adverse Events
时间窗: From the time of the first immunization on Day 0 through the 12-month safety follow-up telephone call following the last scheduled vaccination
Incidence of serious adverse events, from the time of the first immunization on Day 0 through the 12-month safety follow-up telephone call following the last scheduled vaccination
Incidence of Clinical Laborabory Abnormalities
时间窗: From the time of first immunization on Day 0 to Day 84
Incidence of clinical laboratory abnormalities throughout the study (up to Day 84). Clinical laboratory abnormalities are presented as the total of Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 (severe), and Grade 4 (potentially life-threatening) abnormalities according to criteria adapted from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Food and Drug Administration, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research: Guidance for Industry. Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials (September 2007). Within each laboratory parameter, subjects are counted once for their most severe occurrence of clinical laboratory abnormality.
Incidence of Reactogenicity By Severity
时间窗: For 7 days following each vaccination on Days 0, 14, 28
Incidence of solicited systemic reactions and solicited injection site reactions each day for 7 days following each vaccination using subject e-diaries by severity. Reactions were graded using the following scale (note, for redness and swelling, the diameter \[greater of two perpendicular measurements\] was assessed by the subject using an injection site measurement tool): Grade 0 (Absent): Symptom not present; Grade 1 (Mild): Symptom present but does not interfere with activities of daily living, or affected area (redness, swelling) measures \<3 cm; Grade 2 (Moderate): Symptom causes some interference with activities of daily living, or affected area (redness, swelling) measures 3 - 10 cm; Grade 3 (Severe): Symptom prevents activities of daily living or requires treatment, or affected area (redness, swelling) measures \> 10 cm. For each reaction, subjects are counted once across all vaccinations at the highest reported level of severity.
Incidence of Immunologically Significant Adverse Events of Special Interest
时间窗: From the time of the first immunization on Day 0 through the 12-month safety follow-up telephone call following the last scheduled vaccination
