Arm Description

Subjects six months of age and older at the time of enrolment, recruited from randomly selected households originating from preselected mapped communities. Preferably the recruitment period occurred outside of the peak dengue transmission season, and continued until each site had reached its foreseen target. The expected period for recruiting the target sample size was approximately three months. Recruitment of replacement subjects was done during the low dengue transmission and the recruitment period depended on the number of subjects that need to be replaced. Enrolled subjects were subjects who either lived in households in study areas with support from the Family Health Physician Program (FHP) or the Larval Index Rapid Assay (LIRA) or with field research experience in the community (preferred) or where a similar system of mapped communities with potential for surveillance existed.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence Rate (Per 1000 Person-years) of All Laboratory-confirmed Symptomatic Dengue Infection by Calendar Year
Incidence rate (IR) of laboratory-confirmed symptomatic dengue infection (lab-conf.) with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for each year and overall, calculated as the incidence rate per 1000 person-years : numerator = number of all lab-conf. cases reported during the follow-up (FU) period at risk; denominator = total Person-years at risk, i.e. sum of FU periods at risk expressed in years until first Reverse Transcriptase quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR) confirmed symptomatic dengue infection or subject's withdrawal, whichever came first. Lab-conf. case defined as follows: Dengue virus identification through RT-qPCR on acute serum sample or Dengue virus NS1 positive on acute serum sample through Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) or Anti-Dengue Immunoglobulin type M (IgM) seroconversion between acute and convalescent serum samples through ELISA. Data were not analyzed by Dengue season as planned in the protocol as most of the cases occurred outside the seasons.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence Rate (Per 1000 Person-years) of All Virologically-confirmed Symptomatic Dengue Infection by Calendar Year
Incidence rate (IR) of virologically-confirmed symptomatic dengue infection with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for each year separately and overall years calculated as the incidence rate per 1000 person-years : the numerator is the number of all virologically-confirmed dengue infection cases reported during the follow-up period at risk; the denominator is the total Person-years at risk, i.e. sum of the follow-up periods at risk expressed in years. A virologically confirmed symptomatic dengue infection is defined as a dengue case confirmed by RT-qPCR. Data were not analyzed by Dengue season as planned in the protocol as most of the cases occurred outside the seasons. Analysis was not performed by DENV-type as data would not be reliable due to the low number of cases reported.
Incidence Rate (Per 1000 Person-years) of All Laboratory-confirmed or Probable Symptomatic Dengue Infection by Study Site, and Calendar Year
Incidence rate (IR) of laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) by study site, and for each year separately and overall years calculated as the incidence rate per 1000 person-years : the numerator is the number of all laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection cases reported during the follow-up period at risk; the denominator is the total Person-years at risk, i.e. sum of the follow-up periods at risk expressed in years. For early presenters, a probable case was that case without laboratory confirmation, presenting IgG positive in the convalescent sample; for late presenters, a probable case was the case without seroconversion of IgM, presenting at least one IgG positive in one sample (acute or convalescent). Data were not analyzed by Dengue season as planned in the protocol as most of the cases occurred outside the seasons.
Incidence Rate (Per 1000 Person-years) of All Laboratory-confirmed or Probable Symptomatic Dengue Infection by Age Category, and Calendar Year
Incidence rate (IR) of laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) by age category, and for each year separately and overall years calculated as the incidence rate per 1000 person-years : the numerator is the number of all laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection cases reported during the follow-up period at risk; the denominator is the total Person-years at risk, i.e. sum of the follow-up periods at risk expressed in years. For early presenters, a probable case was that case without laboratory confirmation, presenting IgG positive in the convalescent sample; for late presenters, a probable case was the case without seroconversion of IgM, presenting at least one IgG positive in one sample (acute or convalescent). Data were not analyzed by Dengue season as planned in the protocol as most of the cases occurred outside the seasons.
Incidence Rate (Per 1000 Person-years) of All Laboratory-confirmed or Probable Symptomatic Dengue Infection by Gender, and Calendar Year
Incidence rate (IR) of laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) by gender, and for each year separately and overall years calculated as the incidence rate per 1000 person-years : the numerator is the number of all laboratory-confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection cases reported during the follow-up period at risk; the denominator is the total Person-years at risk, i.e. sum of the follow-up periods at risk expressed in years. For early presenters, a probable case was that case without laboratory confirmation, presenting IgG positive in the convalescent sample; for late presenters, a probable case was the case without seroconversion of IgM, presenting at least one IgG positive in one sample (acute or convalescent). Data were not analyzed by Dengue season as planned in the protocol as most of the cases occurred outside the seasons.
Number of Primary Symptomatic Dengue Infection Cases Among Laboratory-confirmed or Probable Cases
A primary symptomatic dengue case is a subject with laboratory confirmed or probable symptomatic dengue infection, and without evidence of previous dengue infection (absence of Ig G antibodies at the previous scheduled visit and absence of laboratory confirmed symptomatic case detected previously at study surveillance). Analysis was not performed by DENV-type as data would not be reliable due to the low number of cases reported.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to estimate the incidence of dengue infection in children and adults in geographically distinct locations of Brazil.
Detailed Description
The aim of this study is to generate dengue disease burden data including estimates of incidence rates, prevalence data and the clinical presentation of dengue across different age groups. The study will be conducted in at least three cities: Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, and Manaus. This study will also prepare potential sites for future clinical trials, by setting up the logistics and training staff on site to enroll a cohort of subjects perform dengue surveillance and other study procedures. Households will be randomly selected from communities where a registry system is implemented. All individuals in the household will be eligible for participating in the study. This study will be sponsored by GSK and co-funded by GSK and Fiocruz. As study sponsor, GSK will delegate some activities to Fiocruz, according to the provisions in their Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA).
