A Single Ascending Dose Study in Adults (Stage 1) and Single Ascending Dose-Finding Study (Stage 2) in Elderly Subjects With ASP3772, A Pneumococcal Vaccine

GlaxoSmithKline630 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator Prevnar 13® (PCV13) in adults 18 to 64 years of age in Stage 1. Stage 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 in comparison to the active comparator PCV13 in elderly 65 to 85 years of age. In addition, Stage 2 will evaluate the immunogenicity of 3 different dose levels of ASP3772 relative to the response seen following administration of Pneumovax® 23 (PPSV23) for the serotypes not included in PCV13.

The study population will consist of 3 different groups: Group 1 - Stage 1 PCV13 naïve participants randomized within 3 sequential cohorts to ASP3772 or PCV13; Group 2 - Stage 2 PCV13 naïve participants randomized within 3 sequential cohorts to ASP3772 or PCV13; and Group 3 - Stage 2 participants previously vaccinated with PCV13 that will receive PPSV23.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), [Stage 1, Group 1]

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study vaccine, and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this vaccination. A TEAE is defined as any AE with onset within 30 days from study vaccine administration. Medically attended TEAEs (MAAEs) are AEs for which the participant has received medical attention by medical personnel, or in an emergency room, or which led to hospitalization. A new-onset chronic disease TEAEs (NOCD) is defined as a MAAE which a) was absent at baseline; b) has not resolved at the follow-up telephone call; c) requires continuous medical care or attention. Potentially Immune Mediated medical condition TEAEs (PIMMCs) are defined as any AEs of autoimmune or auto inflammatory nature.

Time frame: From Day 1, Up to Day 180

Number of Participants With TEAEs, [Stage 2, Group 2]

Time frame: From Day 1, Up to Day 180

Number of Participants With TEAEs, [Stage 2, Group 3]

Time frame: From Day 1, Up to Day 30

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Vital Signs

Vital signs parameters included blood pressure (hypotension and hypertension), pulse rate (tachycardia and bradycardia), body temperature and respiratory rate. Any change in vital sign abnormalities that was clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator and not related to an underlying disease was reported as an unsolicited adverse event (AE). Any clinically significant abnormality associated with underlying disease does not require reporting as an (S)AE unless judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for the participant's condition.

Time frame: During first hour post vaccination (vaccine administered at Day 1)

Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Significant Laboratory Values

Clinical laboratory testing included hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis. Any abnormal laboratory test result (e.g., in hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis) that was clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator and not related to an underlying disease was reported as an unsolicited adverse event (AE). Laboratory tests of clinical interest included total bilirubin ≥ 2x ULN and Alkaline phosphatase \> 1.5 × upper limit of normal. Study Investigator's interest was to assess only potentially clinically significant values.

Time frame: Up to Day 30

Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Significant Physical Examination Values

A physical examination consists of an examination of general appearance, eyes, nose throat, neck (including thyroid), lymph nodes, chest, lungs, cardiovascular, abdomen, skin, extremities, musculoskeletal and neurological system including mental status. Any abnormal test result that was clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator and not related to an underlying disease was reported as an unsolicited adverse event (AE). Study Investigator's interest was to assess only potentially clinically significant values.

Time frame: Up to Day 30

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG), [Stage 1, Group 1] and [Stage 2, Group 2]

The Investigator assessed standard 12-lead ECG recordings for the purposes of safety assessment and participant management. Any clinically significant abnormality, as determined by the investigator's medical and scientific judgment and unrelated to underlying disease, should be reported as an unsolicited (S)AE. Any clinically significant abnormality associated with underlying disease does not require reporting as an (S)AE unless judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for the participant's condition.
