Valneva Austria GmbHA Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of VLA1553 in Healthy Children
The overall trial duration (First Participant In - Last Participant Out) is estimated to be approximately 22 months. Individual participation is approximately 13 months (immunogenicity subset) from ICF signature to trial completion, unless prematurely discontinued.
At least 3,000 male and female healthy children aged 1 to 11 years will be enrolled and randomized 3:1 to either VLA1553 (n=2,250) or comparator (Nimenrix®) (n=750). These children will be screened for evidence of previous CHIKV exposure.
The trial will be conducted in Latin America and / or Southeast Asia to ensure a diverse participant population and broad applicability of results. An independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will oversee participant safety, review interim data, and provide recommendations on the trial's continuation. Additionally, a Valneva internal Safety Review Committee (SRC) will review safety data according to their pertinent SRC Charter.
The trial is divided into three sequential parts with predefined timepoints: Part A (Day 29, Visit 4), Part B (Month 6, Visit 6) and Part C (Month 12, Visit 7). Analyses for each part will be conducted independently after the last participant completes the respective visit, with Part A analyzed after Day 29, Part B after Month 6, and Part C after Month 12.
