Ontogeny of Measles Immunity in Infants
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT00240916
Purpose
This is an immunogenicity study evaluating the development of the immune response of healthy
infants following primary vaccination with Attenuvax at 6 or 9 months of age compared with
responses in 12 month-old infants receiving MMR-II. Responses of infants receiving an early
two dose measles vaccine regimen with the first dose given at 6 or 9 months followed by a
second dose administered at 12 months will also be compared to infants given a single dose at
12 months of age (Table 2). The current approved regimen for measles vaccination is a first
vaccination at 12-15 months and a subsequent vaccination at school entry.
A secondary endpoint of this study will be to assess the safety of measles vaccine
administered as Attenuvax at 6 or 9 months of age and in an early two dose measles vaccine
regimen with Attenuvax administered at 6 or 9 months followed by MMR-II at 12 months of age.
