NCT02260882

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if revaccination with pneumococcal vaccine (PNEUMOVAX™ 23, V110) is well tolerated and produces an immune response in older Japanese adults. The primary hypothesis being tested is that the geometric mean concentration of antibodies to pneumococcal polysaccharide serotypes 3, 6B, and 23F at 4 weeks after revaccination will be superior to that before revaccination in Japanese adults who received a primary vaccination at least 5 years before revaccination.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Serotype-Specific Antibody Geometric Mean Concentration at 4 Weeks After Revaccination

    Serum antibodies to pneumococcal serotypes were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Geometric mean antibody concentrations (GMCs) were calculated at Baseline and 4 weeks postvaccination. Geometric Mean Fold Rise was the GMC at 4 weeks after vaccination minus the GMC at Baseline.

    Baseline and 4 weeks after revaccination

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Change From Baseline in Serotype-Specific Antibody Geometric Mean Concentration at 4 Weeks After Primary Vaccination

    Baseline and 4 weeks after primary vaccination

  • Percentage of Participants With an Adverse Event of Injection-site Erythema

    Up to 5 days after vaccination

  • Percentage of Participants With an Adverse Event of Injection-site Swelling

    Up to 5 days after vaccination

  • Percentage of Participants With an Adverse Event of Injection-site Pain

    Up to 5 days after vaccination

  • Percentage of Participants With an Adverse Event of Pyrexia

    Up to 5 days after vaccination

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age70 Years - 89 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsOlder Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Japanese participant
  • Good health or any underlying chronic illness is documented to be in stable condition
  • Revaccination Group: received one documented PNEUMOVAX™ 23 vaccination at least 5 years before enrollment in the study

You may not qualify if:

  • Known allergy or sensitivity to any of the components of the study vaccine
  • History of pneumococcal conjugate vaccination
  • Known or suspected immune dysfunction, immunosuppression, or autoimmune disease. Participants with a history of cancer who are not actively treated and not immunosuppressed will be eligible
  • Functional or anatomic asplenia
  • Received immunoglobulin within 6 months before study vaccine or is planned during the study
  • Received any investigational drugs or vaccines within 2 months before study vaccination
  • History of pneumococcal disease (positive culture from blood or other normally sterile site)
  • Thrombocytopenia or any coagulation disorder that would contraindicate intramuscular injection
  • History of convulsion
  • Previously diagnosed with immunodeficiency or has a close relative with congenital immune deficiency
  • Participating in any other clinical trial
