What is being measured

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

  1. Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years

    Titers of serum HI antibodies are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs) against the three influenza strains contained in the trivalent influenza vaccine Influsplit SSW 2005/2006 (GlaxoSmithKline/SSW) after a single versus after two vaccine doses of Influsplit SSW 2005/2006. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

  2. Seroconversion Factor (SCF) for HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years

    Seroconversion factors were defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination compared to Day 0. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

  3. Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years

    A seroconverted subject was defined as a subject who was either seronegative prior to the vaccination and had a protective post-vaccination titer of greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 or who was seropositive prior to the vaccination and had at least a 4-fold increase in the titer as the outcome of the vaccination. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Titers for Serum HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years

    Titers of serum HI antibodies are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs) against the three influenza strains contained in the trivalent influenza vaccine Influsplit SSW 2005/2006 (GlaxoSmithKline/SSW) after a single versus after two vaccine doses of Influsplit SSW 2005/2006. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

  2. SCF for HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years

    Seroconversion factors were defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination compared to Day 0.The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

  3. Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years

    A seroconverted subject was defined as a subject who was either seronegative prior to the vaccination and had a protective post-vaccination titer of greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 or who was seropositive prior to the vaccination and had at least a 4-fold increase in the titer as the outcome of the vaccination. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

  4. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Who Were Unprotected at Pre-vaccination Against 3 Influenza Strains in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years

    Seroprotection power (SPP) was defined as the proportion of the subjects unprotected before vaccination (titre < 40) who were protected after vaccination (titer ≥ 40). The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

  5. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) titer ≥ 1:40. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

    Measured: 21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

  6. Number of Subjects With Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  7. Number of Subjects With Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were Arthralgia, Fatigue, Fever, Headache, Myalgia, Shivering and Sweating. Any= occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 fever = Grade 3 symptoms greater than (>) 39.0 °C. Related = symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to study vaccination.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  8. Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events.

    An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

    Measured: During 31 days after the study vaccine dose (Day 0-30)

  9. Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.

    Measured: During the entire study period, from Day 0 to 58 + 5 days (30 + 5 days after the 2nd vaccine dose) for the 6-9 years Group and from Day 0 to 30 + 5 days (30 + 5 days after the vaccination) for the 10-13 years Group

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Influsplit SSW® 2005/2006 in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 18 sites in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 May 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years (time frame: 28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00372255, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 May 2019.
