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.

    Titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA). The seropositivity cut-off assay was 1:10. The results for Day 0 and Day 21 are the primary efficacy variables.

    Measured: At Days 0, 21 and 180

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.

    A seroconverted subject was defined as a vaccinated subject who had either a pre-vaccination titer <1:10 and a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40 or a pre-vaccination titer ≥1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).

    Measured: At Days 21 and 180

  2. Seroconversion Factor for Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.

    The seroconversion factor (SCF) was defined as the fold increase in serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) post vaccination compared to Day 0. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).

    Measured: At Days 21 and 180

  3. Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject who had a serum HI titer ≥ 1:40. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).

    Measured: At Days 0, 21 and 180

  4. Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 4 Strains of Influenza Disease.

    Titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The 4 influenza strains assessed were A/Wisconsin (WISC), B/Malaysia (MALA), A/Brisbane (BRIS) and B/Florida (FLOR). The seropositivity cut-off assay was 1:28.

    Measured: At Days 0 and 21

  5. Geometric Mean of Influenza-specific Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 4 T-cells.

    The mean was calculated for CD4 T-cells (per million CD4 T-cells) producing at least two different cytokines (All Doubles), at least CD40L, at least INF gamma (IFN-γ), at least IL2 and at least TNF alpha (TNF-α).

    Measured: At Days 0, 21 and 180

  6. Geometric Mean of Influenza-specific Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 8 T-cells.

    The mean was calculated for CD8 T-cells (per million CD8 T-cells) producing at least two different cytokines (All Doubles), at least CD40L, at least INF gamma (IFN-γ), at least IL2 and at least TNF alpha (TNF-α).

    Measured: At Days 0, 21 and 180

  7. Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms.

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

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post vaccination period

  8. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms.

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were arthralgia, fatigue, fever [oral temperature above (>) 38.0 degrees Celsius (°C)], headache, myalgia, nausea and shivering. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of grade intensity or relationship with the study vaccination. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever ≥ 39.0°C. Related = symptom considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to study vaccination.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post vaccination period

  9. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Medically Significant Conditions (MSCs).

    MSCs were defined as conditions prompting emergency room visits or physician visits that were not related to common diseases or routine visits. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of grade intensity or relationship with the study vaccination. Grade 3 = event which prevented normal activities. Related = event assessed by the investigator as causally related to the study vaccination

    Measured: From Day 0 to Day 180

  10. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs).

    Unsolicited AE covers any AE 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 = any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity or relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 = unsolicited AE that prevented normal activity Related = unsolicited AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: During the 21-day (Days 0-20) post vaccination period

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

    Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, result in disability/incapacity or are a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Day 180

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Influenza Vaccine GSK1247446A - 4 different formulations and Fluarix™ in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 15 sites in 3 countries.

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 17 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 14 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in France, Germany, Spain. 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 30 Apr 2013). 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. (time frame: At Days 0, 21 and 180). 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 14 Jun 2019.
