A Trial to Assess the Immunogenicity and Safety of the Trivalent Virosomal Influenza Vaccine, Formulation of 2012-2013, in Non-Elderly Adults and Elderly Subjects

July 12, 2018 updated by: Adimmune Corporation
This is an open study of the use of AdimFlu-V (2012-2013 season) vaccine in non-elderly and elderly subjects. All participates will receive one dose of vaccine (0.5 ml) by intramuscular injection into the upper arm. Safety outcomes included immediate reactions at the time of vaccination, solicited local and systemic reactions for 7 days, unsolicited adverse events for 28 days, and serious adverse events. Sera prepared from blood samples will be collected from each subject immediately prior to, and 28 days after vaccination. Anti-hemagglutinin (HA) antibody titers will be determined using the WHO hemagglutination inhibition reference technique. The central laboratory who is responsible for antibody titrations will not be aware of the background of blood samples (e.g., pre- or post-serum), it is also called observer-blinded. All participates will be followed, either by clinical visit or by telephone contact, for 8 weeks after the vaccination for safety reasons.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The primary objective is to evaluate the immune response (i.e. HAI titer) in subjects after administration of influenza vaccine for 2012-2013 season.
Time Frame: Change from baseline for HAI titer at 21 days post immunization
Serum samples will be obtained prior to vaccination, and 3 weeks post vaccination. Serum samples will be tested for anti-hemagglutinin (HA) antibodies by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI), and assays will be performed at Adimmune Corporation designated central laboratory.
Change from baseline for HAI titer at 21 days post immunization

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of participants reporting reactogenicity events
Time Frame: up to 7 days after vaccination
Reactogenicity events are pre-specified adverse events systematically recorded on diary cards (a grid of check boxes for each event and each day) during the immediate post-vaccination period by all participants. In general, reactogenicity events will be recorded for 7 days after vaccination. The selection of the events to be collected systematically is based on events expected to occur with wild-type influenza infection including fever (≥38°C), runny nose or nasal congestion, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, headache, vomiting, nausea and malaise. Furthermore, the local (injection site) reactions will also be evaluated that include soreness/pain, swelling, redness, ecchymosis and limitation of arm motion.
up to 7 days after vaccination
Number of participants reporting serious and non-serious adverse events
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks after vaccination.
In regard to the long term safety of the study vaccine, the significant and/or serious/non-serious adverse event(s) will be recorded during the 8 weeks follow up after vaccination.
Up to 8 weeks after vaccination.
