研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether giving the Human Rotavirus Vaccine on alternate dosing schedules will enhance the immune response to the vaccine in a low-resource, high-burden country in Africa. Alternate dosing schedules studied include giving the 2-dose vaccine schedule at a slightly older age and giving an additional dose of the vaccine.

结局指标
主要结局
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) Seroconversion: 6 & 10 Week vs. 6, 10, & 14 Week Vaccination Schedules
时间窗: 4-weeks post-vaccination (All Groups) and 8 weeks post-vaccination (6 & 10 week Group)
Anti-rotavirus IgA seroconversion will be defined as the detection of anti-rotavirus IgA antibodies at a concentration ≥20 U/mL post-vaccination in infants seronegative for anti-rotavirus IgA pre-vaccination as measured by Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA).
次要结局
- SAE Assessment(Throughout study period; Group 1: from enrollment through approximately 8 weeks of study participation, Groups 2 & 3: from enrollment through approximately 12 weeks of study participation)
- IgA Seroconversion: 6 & 10 Week vs. 10 & 14 Week Vaccination Schedules(4-weeks post-vaccination (All Groups) and 8 weeks post-vaccination (6 & 10 week Group))
- IgA Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs): 6 & 10 Week vs. 6, 10, & 14 Week Vaccination Schedules(4-weeks post-vaccination (All Groups) and 8 weeks post-vaccination (6 & 10 week Group))
- IgA GMTs: 6 & 10 Week vs. 10 & 14 Week Vaccination Schedule(4-weeks post-vaccination (All Groups) and 8 weeks post-vaccination (6 & 10 week Group))
- Baseline Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Levels: Impact on IgA Seroconversion Post-vaccination(Baseline, 4-weeks post-vaccination (All Groups) and 8 weeks post-vaccination (6 & 10 week Group))
- Vaccine-type Rotavirus Shedding in Stool(Days 4 and 7 post each study vaccination)
