What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary endpoint for efficacy is the first episode in a study child of a cultureconfirmed influenza illness.

    Measured: 28 days after vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The secondary endpoint for culture-confirmed influenza illness is the first episode caused by any community-acquired antigenic subtype which occurs following receipt of the second dose of study vaccine or placebo.

    Measured: 28 days after vaccination

A Phase 3 study testing CAIV-T in people with Influenza, run by MedImmune LLC at 1 site in Finland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary endpoint for efficacy is the first episode in a study child of a cultureconfirmed influenza illness. (time frame: 28 days after vaccination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
