Safety Study of a Single Dose of Monovalent High-dose Inactivated Poliovirus Type 2 Vaccine (m-IPV2 HD) in Infants Early in Life

Phase II, observer-blind, randomized study on the safety, reactogenicity, immunogenicity and impact on intestinal shedding of a single dose of monovalent high-dose inactivated poliovirus type 2 vaccine (m-IPV2 HD) or a single dose of standard trivalent inactivated poliovirus vaccine (t-IPV) when given concomitantly with the third dose of bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (b-OPV) to infants early in life

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age: 6 weeks (-7 to +14 days).
  • Healthy without obvious medical conditions that preclude the subject to be in the study as established by the medical history and physical examination.
  • Written informed consent obtained from 1 or 2 parents or legal guardian as per Panama regulations.

Exclusion criteria

  • Previous vaccination against poliovirus.
  • Low birth weight (BW <2,500 gm).
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
  • Family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
  • Major congenital defects or serious uncontrolled chronic illness (neurologic, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, or endocrine).
  • Known allergy to any component of the study vaccines.
  • Uncontrolled coagulopathy or blood disorder contraindicating intramuscular injections.
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products since birth or planned administration during the study period.
  • Acute severe febrile illness at day of vaccination deemed by the Investigator to be a contraindication for vaccination (the child can be included at a later time if within age window and all in/exclusion criteria are met.).
  • Member of the subject's household (living in the same house or apartment unit) has received OPV in the last 3 months.
  • Subject who, in the opinion of the Investigator, is unlikely to comply with the protocol or is inappropriate to be included in the study for the safety or the benefit-risk ratio of the subject.

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    To assess and compare descriptively the safety of a single dose of a m-IPV2 HD vaccine in healthy infants to that of a licensed t-IPV vaccine when given concomitantly with the third dose of b-OPV measured by the incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) and important medical events (IMEs) from the day of vaccine administration until day of last visit at study week 15 (~ week 21 of life).

  2. Efficacy

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    To determine whether 1 dose of a m-IPV2 HD vaccine given to infants is superior to 1 dose of t-IPV given at study week 8 (~14 weeks of age) in inducing a humoral immune response to type 2 poliovirus when measured as seroconversion to type 2 poliovirus (type-specific titers ≥1:8 and >4-fold over expected levels of maternally-derived antibody) and as median titers four weeks later at study week 12 (~ 18 weeks of age).
