About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Double-blind, Active-controlled, Randomized Study in Healthy Adults to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of a Trivalent and Quadrivalent Cell-based Virosomal Subunit Influenza Vaccine

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability after administration of trivalent and quadrivalent cell-based virosomal influenza vaccine in healthy adults.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind and randomized study in healthy adults. The duration of study will be approximately 90 days per participant. The study will include 4 visits: Day 1 (for vaccination), Day 4, Day 22 and day 90 (Follow-up visits). Safety and tolerability will be assessed by the rate of solicited, unsolicited, and serious adverse events.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with Solicited Local Adverse Events (AEs)

    The local AEs pain, erythema, and induration at the study vaccine injection site will be noted in the participant Diary from Day 1 to Day 8. The extent (largest diameter) of any redness or induration should be measured daily and recorded, along with any functional limitation of activity. Local AEs will be graded according to severity as mild (Grade 1), moderate (Grade 2), severe (Grade 3) and potentially life threatening (Grade 4).

    Measured: Up to Day 8

  2. Number of participants with Solicited Systemic Adverse Events (AEs)

    The solicited systemic AEs headache, fatigue, myalgia, malaise, and shivering/rigors will be noted in the participant Diary from Day 1 to Day 8. Fever (defined as body temperature greater than 38.0 Celsius) is another solicited systemic AE. Local AEs will be graded according to severity as mild (grade 1), moderate (grade 2), severe (grade 3) and potentially life threatening (grade 4).

    Measured: Up to Day 8

  3. Number of participants with Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)

    Unsolicited AEs are all AEs the participants are not specifically asked about in the participant Diary.

    Measured: Up to Day 22

  4. Number of participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    The SAE is a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization or is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via medicinal product.

    Measured: Up to Day 90

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants with Seroconversion

    Number of participants with seroconversion will be the participants with a greater than or equal to (>=) 4-fold increase in hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody titer and a titer of >=1:40 at Day 22. HI against homologous strains will be measured with the HI test in serum.

    Measured: Day 22

  2. Number of Participants with Seroprotection

    Number of participants with seroprotection is defined as number of participants with HI antibody >=1:40 at Day 22. HI against homologous strains will be measured with the HI test in serum.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 22

  3. Change From Baseline in Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of HI antibodies

    GMT and increase in GMT of HI antibodies from Baseline to Day 22 will be assessed.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 22

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Trivalent virosomal influenza vaccine, Commercial vaccine 1 and Quadrivalent virosomal influenza vaccine in people with Influenza, run by Crucell Holland BV at 4 sites in Belgium.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 24 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Belgium. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Number of participants with Solicited Local Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Up to Day 8). 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 24 Oct 2014.
