About this study

The study is a single-center, double-blind, randomized, bridging clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the consistency between each two lots of live attenuated varicella vaccines, to evaluate the non-inferiority of the immunogenicity of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at commercialized scale compared to trial-scale, and to evaluate the safety of live attenuated varicella vaccines. 1197 healthy Chinese children aged 1 to 3 years old were randomly assigned into four groups in the ratio 2:2:2:1. Children in the first three groups were administered with one dose of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at commercialized scale, and children in the last group were administered with one dose of live attenuated varicella vaccines manufactured at trial-scale .

Inclusion criteria

  • Healthy volunteer between 1-3 years old;
  • legal identity;
  • Guardian(s) of the volunteer should be capable of understanding the written - consent form, and such form should be signed before the children being included into this study.

Treatment and study plan

Vaccine manufactured at commercialized scale

Biological

Single subcutaneous injection of the investigated live attenuated varicella vaccine (0.5 ml) on Day 0

Vaccine manufactured at trial-scale

Biological

Single subcutaneous injection of the control live attenuated varicella vaccine (0.5 ml) on Day 0

Primary outcomes

  1. The post-immune geometric mean titer (GMT) of susceptible subjects in each group.

    Time frame: 30 days

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible. The GMT were measured using the method of Fluorescent Antibody to Membrane Antigen (FAMA).

  2. The overall seroconversion rates (SCRs) of each group.

    Time frame: 30 days

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer< 1:4 and post-immune antibody titer≥ 1:4, or those whose pre-immune antibody titer≥1:4 and the increase of post-immune antibody titer≥4 folds are considered seroconverted.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The seroconversion rates (SCRs) of susceptible subjects in each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible.

  2. The geometric mean increase (GMI) of susceptible subjects in each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    Increase of post-immune GMT compared with pre-immune GMT.Subjects whose pre-immune antibody titer < 1:4 are considered susceptible.

  3. The overall post-immune GMT of each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    The GMT of all the subjects in each group.

  4. The overall GMI of each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    The GMI of all the subjects in each group.

  5. The incidences of adverse events (AEs) of each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    AEs occurred within 30 days after injection will be collected.

  6. The incidences of serious adverse events (SAEs) of each group

    Time frame: 30 days

    SAEs occurred within 30 days after injection will be collected.
