NCT04760236

Brief Summary

This study is to evaluate immune non-inferiority, safety and lot-to-lot consistency of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ in 1 to 40 years old healthy Nepalese participants. The investigators hypothesize that the simplified formulation is able to induce non-inferior immunogenicity compared to licensed OCV, Shanchol™.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Immune non-inferiority of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) as measured by seroconversion rates for all ages

    Proportion of participants showing seroconversion of vibriocidal titers against Vibrio cholerae O1 Inaba and O1 Ogawa 2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™ for all ages

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

  • Vaccine Safety profile

    Frequency of solicited adverse events within 7 days post vaccination, unsolicited adverse events within 28 days post vaccination, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) after each dose during the entire study period in all ages and in each age stratum

    As in Description

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Immune non-inferiority of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) as measured by GMT for all ages

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

  • Immune non-inferiority of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) as measured by seroconversion rate in each age stratum

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

  • Immune non-inferiority of OCV-S compared to Shanchol™ (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) as measured by GMT in each age stratum

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

  • The equivalence of immunogenicity in 3 lots as measured by GMT

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

Other Outcomes (2)

  • The equivalence of immunogenicity in 3 lots as measured by seroconversion rates

    2 weeks after second dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™

  • Vibriocidal antibody responses

    2 weeks after first dose of either OCV-S (i.e., one lot of OCV-S) or Shanchol™
