About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Observer-Blind, Multicenter, Noninferiority Study to Evaluate Safety and Immunogenicity of a Cell-Based Quadrivalent Subunit Influenza Virus Vaccine (QIVc) and a United States Licensed Quadrivalent Influenza Virus Vaccine (QIV) in Healthy Subjects 6 Months Through 47 Months

This phase 3 clinical study is a randomized, observer-blind, comparator-controlled, multicenter study of QIVc versus a US-licensed comparator QIV in children 6 months through 47 months of age. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that vaccination with QIVc elicits an immune response that is noninferior to that of a US-licensed comparator QIV containing the same virus strains, in children 6 months through 47 months of age.

Being tested

  9. Safety Endpoint: Percentage of Subjects With Any Unsolicited AEs

    The percentage of subjects with at least one unsolicited AE from Day 1 to Day 29 for previously vaccinated subjects and from Day 1 to Day 57 for not previously vaccinated subjects.

    Related AEs = considered at least possibly related to study vaccination by the investigator; Severity = based on the greatest severity associated with a preferred term for a reported AE.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 29 for previously vaccinated subjects; Day 1 to Day 57 for not previously vaccinated subjects

  10. Safety Endpoint: Percentage of Subjects With Any Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), New Onset of Chronic Disease (NOCD) or AEs Leading to Withdrawal During the Entire Study Period

    The percentage of subjects with any SAE, NOCD or AE leading to withdrawal during the study period from Day 1 to Day 181 for previously vaccinated subjects or from Day 1 to Day 209 for not previously vaccinated subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing QIVc and Comparator QIV in people with Influenza and Human, run by Seqirus at 47 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 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 12 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 47 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. 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 12 Jan 2022). 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?

Immunogenicity Endpoint: Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) and GMT Ratio Against the A/H1N1, B/Victoria and B/Yamagata Vaccine Strains by Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) Assay Using Cell-derived Target Viruses (time frame: Day 29 for previously vaccinated subjects; Day 57 for not previously vaccinated subjects). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04074928, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Jan 2022.
