Safety, Tolerability, Immunogenicity And CPG Dosage Finding Study of Novartis CpG Adjuvanted Flu Vaccine

November 4, 2009 updated by: Novartis

A Phase 1, Randomized, Controlled, Observer-Blinded, Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of a Single Dose of Adjuvanted Influenza Vaccine Combined With CpG7909 in Healthy Adults

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the an adjuvanted influenza vaccine combined with CpG7909 at three different doses of CpG 7909 as a single intramuscular (IM) administration in healthy adults. Safety will be assessed by observation of symptoms, physical examination findings and laboratory safety testing.
