A Clinical Trial of Rabies Vaccine(Human Diploid Cell)for Human Use,Freeze-dried in a Population Aged 10 to 60 Years
China3,000 participantsStarted 2026-02-26
Plain-language summary
A total of 3,000 participants will be enrolled, stratified by age into two groups: 600 participants aged 10-17 years and 2,400 participants aged 18-60 years. Within each age group, participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio to one of five vaccination schedule groups: Essen Control Group (Group A), Essen Experimental Group (Group B), Zagreb Experimental Group (Group C), Simplified Four-Dose Group 1 (Group D), and Simplified Four-Dose Group 2 (Group E).
Among participants in the four experimental groups-Essen Experimental Group, Zagreb Experimental Group, Simplified Four-Dose Group 1, and Simplified Four-Dose Group 2-stratified block randomization will be applied. Within each age group and each vaccination schedule group, participants will be further randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio into three subgroups: those receiving a booster dose at Day 90 after completion of the primary immunization, those receiving a booster dose at Day 180, and those undergoing assessment of immune persistence at Day 360 after completion of the primary immunization.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Aged between 10 and 60 years at the time of enrollment.
* The participant and/or their legal guardian voluntarily agrees to participate in the trial and signs the informed consent form.
* The participant and their family are able to comply with the trial follow-up schedule as required by the protocol (no plans for extended absence or relocation from the study site).
* Female participants are neither pregnant nor lactating (negative urine pregnancy test prior to vaccination), and have no plans to become pregnant within 2 months after enrollment.
Exclusion Criteria:
a Exclusion criteria for the first dose:
* Axillary body temperature ≥37.3°C at screening.
* History of rabies vaccination or administration of rabies-specific passive immunization products, or history of bites/scratches by dogs or other mammals within the past year.
* History of severe allergic reactions requiring medical intervention to any vaccine or vaccine components, such as anaphylactic shock, allergic laryngeal edema, allergic purpura, Arthus reaction, severe urticaria, or angioedema.
* Fever, acute or chronic infectious diseases (e.g., active tuberculosis, viral hepatitis), or acute exacerbation of chronic illness within 3 days before the first vaccine dose.
* Receipt of blood, blood products, or immunoglobulins within 3 months prior to the first vaccine dose, or planned use of such products within 1 month after the final vaccine dose.
* Receipt of any other vaccines within 14 days…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

What they're measuring
1
Seroconversion rate and geometric mean concentration (GMC) of rabies virus neutralizing antibodies in baseline seronegative participants 14 days after the first dose.
Timeframe: Day 14 after the first dose.
2
Seroconversion rate of rabies virus neutralizing antibodies in baseline seronegative participants 14 days after the last dose.
Timeframe: Day 14 after the last dose.
3
Incidence of adverse events within different timeframes (30 minutes, 0-7 days, 0-30 days) after each vaccine dose.
Timeframe: Within 30 minutes, 0-7 days, and 0-30 days after each dose
4
All serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring from the first dose of primary immunization to 6 months after completion of the primary immunization.
Timeframe: From the first dose of primary immunization to 6 months after completion
