About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of The Split, Inactivated, Trivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered by Intradermal Route in Comparison With Intramuscular Vaccination With Standard Fluzone® in Ambulatory Elderly Subjects

As a result of the safety and immunogenicity data generated from earlier dose-ranging studies, the present formulation has been selected for further development in the elderly.

Primary Objective:

To compare the immunogenicity in subjects receiving investigational Fluzone with those of subjects receiving standard Fluzone®.

Secondary Objectives:

Immunogenicity:

To describe the immunogenicity in subjects receiving investigational Fluzone and standard Fluzone®.

Safety:

To evaluate and describe the safety profile of investigational Fluzone in terms of solicited- and unsolicited adverse events and serious adverse events post-vaccination.

Being tested
Split, Inactivated, Trivalent Influenza Vaccine

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With at Least a 4-Fold Increase in Serum HAI Antibody Titer Post-vaccination With Either Fluzone Intradermal or Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine.

    The serological determinations of total anti-influenza antibodies were performed using an Hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) test.

    Measured: Pre-vaccination and Day 28 post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants Who Achieved Seroprotection Post-vaccination With Either Fluzone Intradermal or Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine.

    Seroprotection was defined as a post-vaccination Hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) antibody titer ≥ 40

    Measured: Day 28 post-vaccination

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Geometric Mean Antibody Titers (GMTs) Before and Post-vaccination With Either Fluzone Intradermal and Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine.

    The serological determinations of total anti influenza antibodies were performed using an Hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) test.

    Measured: Pre- and Day 28 post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction, Post Vaccination With Either Fluzone Intradermal or Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine

    Solicited injection site reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, Ecchymosis, and Pruritus.

    Solicited systemic reactions: Fever (Temperature), Headache, Malaise, and Myalgia.

    Measured: Day 0 up to 7 days post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Split, Inactivated, Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in people with Orthomyxoviridae Infection and Influenza, run by Sanofi at 17 sites in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 22 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 18 Apr 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 13 Sep 2011). 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?

Number of Participants With at Least a 4-Fold Increase in Serum HAI Antibody Titer Post-vaccination With Either Fluzone Intradermal or Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine. (time frame: Pre-vaccination and Day 28 post-vaccination). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Apr 2012.
