Immunogenicity and Safety of Imovax Polio in Chinese Infants Compared to Local OPV

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Poliomyelitis
Polio
Interventions
Biological: Poliomyelitis Vaccine inactivated
Biological: Poliomyelitis Vaccine in Dragee Candy (Human Diploid Cell)
Registration Number
NCT00348387
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company
Brief Summary

This study is intended to support the registration of IMOVAX Polio in China.

The primary objective of this Pase III trial is to compare IMOVAX Polio to the current Chinese standard of care (OPV) that is administered following a schedule of 2-3-4 months. The objective is to demonstrate that after the 3 doses primary series, in terms of seroprotection rates, IMOVAX Polio is not inferior to OPV. The safety of IPV will be assessed after each IPV dose.
