Long-term immune response to altSonflex1-2-3 vaccine in African children
Official title: A Phase 2, Open-Label, Single-Center, Long-Term Immunogenicity Follow-Up Study of the GVGH altSonflex1-2-3 Shigella Vaccine 1, 2 and 3 Years After Vaccination in African Children
Run by GlaxoSmithKline · NCT07320716 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study checks whether the immune response from the altSonflex1-2-3 Shigella vaccine persists 1 to 3 years after vaccination in African children who previously received the vaccine.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Children who previously enrolled in the H06_01TP or H06_02TP studies, received 2 or 3 doses of altSonflex1-2-3, and are approximately 12 months after their last vaccination.
✕Probably not a fit
Children with significant health issues, immunosuppressive conditions, or any contraindication to blood draws may not benefit from this follow-up study.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 2 follow-up study assessing long-term immunogenicity of the altSonflex1-2-3 vaccine in children who participated in prior dose-selection trials. No new vaccinations are given; researchers collect blood samples to measure immune markers at 1, 2, and 3 years after the last vaccine dose. The study builds on two earlier vaccination schedules to determine how durable the immune response remains over time. Participation is limited to children who completed the prior studies and are now around 12 months post-vaccination, with ongoing safety monitoring through medical history and clinical judgment. Core vaccines used as comparators in the prior studies include Menveo, Infanrix hexa, and TYPHIBEV, with the primary goal of characterizing sustained immunogenicity in an African setting.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, it could confirm durable protection and inform future Shigella vaccination strategies.
How similar studies have gone: Prior dose-selection studies indicated immunogenic responses; this follow-up aims to confirm durability rather than establish initial efficacy.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Children who, as infants, previously participated in two completed studies (H06\_01TP or H06\_02TP) and were vaccinated with 3 or 2 doses of altSonflex1-2-3 or control vaccines, respectively, completed all previous vaccinations and are 12±1 months after the last altSonflex1-2-3 vaccination. * Individuals in good health as determined by medical history since last study visit and clinical judgment of the investigator. Exclusion Criteria: * Serious and significant progressive, unstable, or uncontrolled clinical condition(s). * Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition. * Clinical condition(s) representing a contraindication to blood draws. * Any behavioural or cognitive impairment or psychiatric disease. * Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrollment. * Individuals with known or suspected HIV infection or HIV-related disease, with history of an autoimmune disorder or any other known or suspected impairment/alteration of the immune system, or under immunosuppressive therapy. * Receipt of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products or plasma derivatives, during the period starting 3 months before each study visit.
