What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Detectable Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Detectable anti HA antibody titer was defined as titers ≥ 10 (1/dilution) on Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants With Seroprotection Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a titer ≥ 40 (1/dil).

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  3. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of A/H1N1 Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  4. Number of Participants With Detectable Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Detectable anti-HA antibody titer was defined as titers ≥ 10 (1/dil).

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  5. Number of Participants With Seroprotection Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a titer ≥ 40 (1/dil).

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  6. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of A/H1N1 Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

  7. Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Solicited Injections Site Reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis. Solicited Systemic Reactions: Fever (Temperature), Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

  8. Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Solicited Injections Site Reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis. Solicited Systemic Reactions: Fever (Temperature), Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Monovalent Subvirion A/H1N1 influenza vaccine with adjuvant, Monovalent Subvirion A/H1N1 influenza vaccine and Normal saline solution in people with Influenza and Swine-origin A/H1N1 Influenza, run by Sanofi at 15 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 26 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 3 Oct 2011. 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 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. 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 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 3 Oct 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 Detectable Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years (time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination). The study lists 8 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 3 Oct 2011.
