What is being measured

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

  1. Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers

    Titers, given as geometric mean titers (GMTs), are presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains.

    Measured: At Day 0 and 21

  2. Number of Seroconverted Subjects

    Seroconversion, defined as a pre-vaccination serum HI titer < 1:10 and a post-vaccination serum HI titer ≥ 1:40, or a pre-vaccination serum HI titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination serum HI titer, is presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains.

    Measured: At Day 21

  3. Number of Seroprotected Subjects

    Seroprotection, defined as a serum HI antibody titer ≥ 1:40, is presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains.

    Measured: At Day 0 and 21

  4. Fold Increase From Baseline in Serum HI Antibody Titer

    The fold increase in serum HI antibody titer post-vaccination (Day 21) compared to pre-vaccination (Day 0) was calculated by dividing the geometric mean antibody titers of Day 21 by those of Day 0. Data are presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains.

    Measured: At Day 21

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Symptoms

    Solicited local symptoms assessed include pain, redness, and swelling. Solicited general symptoms assessed include bronchospasm, chills, cough, fatigue, headache, joint pain at other location, muscle aches, red eyes, sore throat, swelling of the face, and fever.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period

  2. Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events (AE)

    An AE is 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.

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

  3. Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject, or may evolve into one of the outcomes listed above.

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fluviral® in people with Influenza Vaccines, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Canada.

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 24 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 26 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 1 site in Canada. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Aug 2009). 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?

Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers (time frame: At Day 0 and 21). The study lists 4 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 26 Jun 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
