Study of a Pandemic Influenza Vaccine in Elderly Participants

July 17, 2016 updated by: Seqirus

Phase II Study of a Pandemic Influenza Vaccine in Elderly Participants

The World Health Organisation has warned that an influenza pandemic is inevitable. The avian influenza H5N1 virus strain is one of the leading candidates to cause the next influenza pandemic. The elderly are likely to be a special target group for vaccination; therefore, this study will test the safety and immunogenicity of a H5N1 pandemic influenza vaccine in a healthy elderly population.
