About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study to Assess the Immunogenicity and Safety of Influenza Virus Vaccine, AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1), in Healthy Volunteers

This was a randomized, laboratory-blinded study in healthy male and non-pregnant female designed to investigate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of an inactivated influenza H1N1 vaccine (AdimFlu-S). In the adult cohort, all volunteers were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart, 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 30 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart or 1 injection of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA. In the elders cohort, all volunteers were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart or 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 30 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart.

Following immunization, safety was measured by assessment of adverse events for 6 weeks following the first vaccination, serious adverse events and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 7 months post first vaccination; and reactogenicity to the vaccines for 7 days following each vaccination. Immunogenicity testing included hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) testing on serum obtained before first vaccination, and three and six weeks after first vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following a single dose of study vaccine, stratified by age of recipient, when administered at the 15 or 30 μg HA doses.

  2. The primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of the study vaccine when administered at the 15 or 30 μg dose.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The secondary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following 2 doses of study vaccine, stratified by age of recipient, when administered at the 15 or 30 μg HA doses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 monovalent vaccine, inactivated in people with Influenza, run by Adimmune Corporation at 3 sites in Taiwan.

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 15 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 20 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Taiwan. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following a single dose of study vaccine, stratified by age of recipient, when administered at the 15 or 30 μg HA doses.. 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01003145, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 20 Jan 2012.
