About This Trial

This Phase 1/2a trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of two ascending doses (10\^6 PFU and 10\^7 PFU) of intranasal BLB-201 (a recombinant parainfluenza virus type 5) administered in infants (8-24 months of age) and children (18-59 months of age) who may or may not have had prior respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 137 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Inclusion criteria for sero+ children 18 to 59 months of age enrolled in Groups 1 and 2: Healthy children at least 18 months but less than 60 months of age whose legally-acceptable representative (LAR) understands and signs the trial willing to sign a consent form and agrees to vaccine administration following a detailed explanation of the trial. Determined by medical history, targeted physical exam, and clinical judgement of the investigator to be in a good state of health. Screening laboratory values slightly outside lab normal ranges may be acceptable if the site investigator determines that they are not clinically significant. Permitted concomitant medications include nutritional supplements, medications for gastroesophageal reflux, eye drops, and topical medications, including topical steroids, topical antibiotics, and topical antifungal agents. Sero+ for RSV as defined by serum RSV antibody titer assay Participant is expected to be available for the duration of the trial. The LAR confirms that the subject has received routine immunizations appropriate for age based on the current Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) Recommended Immunization Schedule for Children and Adolescents Aged 18 Years or Younger. Growing normally for age as demonstrated on a World Health Organization (WHO) growth chart, AND has a current height and weight above the 3rd percentile for age. Inclusion criteria for sero+ or sero- infants and children 8 to 24 months of age enrolled in Groups 3 through 6: Healthy children at least 8 months but less than 25 months of age whose LAR understands and signs the trial willing to sign a consent form and agrees to vaccine administration following a detailed explanation of the trial. ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

What is the NCT05655182 clinical trial studying?

This Phase 1/2a trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of two ascending doses (10\^6 PFU and 10\^7 PFU) of intranasal BLB-201 (a recombinant parainfluenza virus type 5) administered in infants (8-24 months of age) and children (18-59 months of age) who may or may not have had prior respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. The full protocol is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and includes the primary outcome measures, eligibility criteria, and study endpoints.

Who can participate in NCT05655182?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

How do I contact the trial site for NCT05655182?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
