A Phase III Clinical Trial of An Inactivated Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine in Healthy Subjects Aged 3 Years and Older

August 30, 2016 updated by: Jiangsu Province Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

A Double-blind,Randomized,Positive-controlled, Non-inferiority Phase III Clinical Trial of An Inactivated Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Split Virion) in Healthy Chinese Subjects Aged 3 Years and Older

Influenza is an acute respiratory disease caused by influenza viruses. There are three types of the virus including A, B and C. Both type A and type B viruses can cause acute febrile respiratory tract infection, characterized by sudden fever, headache, muscle pain, cough, sore throat, nasal congestion and general malaise. The main transmission of influenza is through those highly contagious aerosol droplets containing influenza virus passed from infected people to susceptible population. Each year in the fall and winter infection of influenza is widespread in various age groups, with high incidence rate. Although influenza is generally a self-limiting disease, but in children, the elderly (especially those above 65 years old and those with chronic heart, lung, kidney, liver, blood or metabolic diseases such as diabetes or other certain diseases) and those with poor immunity function, influenza can easily lead to serious flu complications such as pneumonia, resulting in severe increase of morbidity and mortality.

In order to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of a quadrivalent influenza vaccine produced by Jiangsu Jindike Biotechnology Co., Ltd. a phase III clinical trial is planned to conduct in healthy Chinese subjects aged 3 years and older.

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.

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 95% confidence interval (CI) lower limit for the seroconversion against each corresponding flu strain after vaccination is≥40% in subjects aged 3-59 years and≥30% in subjects aged ≥60 years separately
Time Frame: 28 days after vaccination
Immunogenicity outcomes were assessed in serum samples by Hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay. The lowest dilution used in the assay is 1/10. Seroconversion was defined as either a pre-vaccination HAI titer < 1:10 and a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40 or a pre-vaccination titer ≥1:10 and ≥ four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer.
28 days after vaccination
incidence of solicited adverse reactions after vaccination
Time Frame: 0-7 days after vaccination
incidence of solicited adverse reactions (including systemic and local adverse reactions) after vaccination
0-7 days after vaccination

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
the 95% CI lower limit for the post-vaccination seroprotection rates against each corresponding flu strain is ≥70%
Time Frame: 28 days after vaccination
A seroprotected subject is defined as a vaccinated subject with serum HAI titer≥ 1:40.
28 days after vaccination
the post-vaccination mean geometric increases (GMIs) of HAI titer against each corresponding flu strain is≥2.5 in subjects aged 3-59 years and≥2.0 in subjects aged ≥60 years separately
Time Frame: 28 days after vaccination
Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers were used to calculate post-vaccination mean geometric increases (GMIs) of each of the influenza vaccines.
28 days after vaccination
incidence of unsolicited adverse reactions after vaccination
Time Frame: 0-28 days after vaccination
incidence of unsolicited adverse reactions (including systemic and local adverse reactions) after vaccination
0-28 days after vaccination
incidence of serious adverse event (SAE) after vaccination
Time Frame: 0-28 days after vaccination
0-28 days after vaccination
incidence of serious adverse event (SAE) after vaccination
Time Frame: 29 days to 6 month after vaccination
29 days to 6 month after vaccination
