研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of BioThrax anthrax vaccine in healthy adults following 3 doses of BioThrax. Results of this study will be used to support a post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) indication for BioThrax.
This study will be conducted in the United States (U.S.), in 200 healthy male and female volunteer subjects ages 18 to 65 years.
The duration of study participation for each individual subject will be approximately 128 days (4.25 months), including a screening period of approximately 28 days followed by 100 days on study.
详细描述
BioThrax® (also called Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed or AVA) is the only FDA-licensed vaccine for the prevention of anthrax infection. This study will evaluate the immunogenicity of the vaccine using a post-exposure vaccination schedule. Correlations will be drawn to immunogenicity and survival data from animal models to demonstrate that BioThrax® can elicit a protective immune response for PEP.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value at Day 63 (5 Weeks Following the Third Vaccination on Day 28).
时间窗: Day 63 +/- 2 days
Neutralizing antibody levels in blinded serum samples were measured using a validated anthrax lethal toxin neutralization assay. The primary assay endpoint was the 50% neutralization factor (TNA NF50), which is calculated as the ratio of the 50% effective dose (ED50) of the test sample to the ED50 of a reference serum.
次要结局
- Percentage of Injection Site Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards(Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).)
- Average Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value Between Days 63 and 100 (Inclusive).(Days 63 to 100)
- Percentage of Subjects Achieving a TNA Response of a Predefined Threshold Value at Day 70.(Day 70 +/- 2 days)
- Incidence of Injection Site Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards(Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).)
- Incidence of Systemic Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards(Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).)
- Percentage of Systemic Reactions by Severity (Mild, Moderate, Severe) From Subject Diary Cards(Web-enabled diaries were completed for 7 days after each of three injections (Days 0, 14, and 28).)
