About this study

Official title: Cross-sectional Study to Assess Tolerability of the Trivalent Recombinant Influenza Vaccine in Individuals Aged 18 Years and Older Using the Vaccinees Perception of Injection Questionnaire

This study aims to assess patient-reported experiences following trivalent recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV3) vaccination using the Vaccinees' Perception of Injection (VAPI) questionnaire, identify factors related to vaccine choice and future vaccination intentions in each case, and assess the cross-validity of VAPI, by establishing magnitude of correlations to EuroQol 5 Dimensions, 5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) domains.

Participants will need approximately 30 minutes to complete the self-administered online survey. Individuals will be recruited via a U.S. retail chain partner that offers the RIV3 vaccine as part of their routine influenza vaccination program

Read the detailed description

This study will be conducted through an online survey that respondents will complete only if they meet the inclusion criteria and give their consent to continue to the main questionnaire. Each participant will complete the survey only once. Participants will provide details about their demographic data, health status, perceptions of flu vaccination and injection site reactions, as well as drivers for vaccine choice and future vaccine use.

In the 2024-2025 influenza season, the sponsor conducted a feasibility study to evaluate patient-reported severity, impact and tolerability of RIV3 local and systemic symptoms, as well as the overall experience of participants with vaccination. The study employed two validated instruments: the EQ-5D-5L and the VAPI , targeting participants aged 18 to 64 years.

For the 2025-2026 influenza season, the study sponsor intends to enhance participant enrollment to enable the generation of statistically robust and clinically meaningful data on the tolerability profile of RIV3. The resulting data are intended for dissemination through peer-reviewed scientific journals and presentation at international scientific conferences.

The second section focuses on the vaccination moment, specifically on vaccination experience regarding pain, anxiety, satisfaction with the vaccination platform, and information received. The third section focuses on post-vaccination experiences. The fourth section captures the overall vaccination experience in terms of tolerability, acceptability, and willingness to be vaccinated in the future.

    Measured: Up to 21 days Post Vaccination

  1. Frequencies of Factors Driving Patient Choices of RIV3 Score (Age Group 18-49 and 50-64 years)

    VAPI and EuroQol 5 Dimensions, 5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaires will be used. The VAPI questionnaire covers four sections.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Influenza Immunization and Health Volunteers, run by Sanofi at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 4 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 7 Apr 2026. 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 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.

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?

Proportion of Participants Reporting Incidence of Reactions (Local) Using Vaccinees' Perception of Injection (VAPI) Questionnaire (Age Groups [18-49 and 50-64 years]) (time frame: Up to 21 days Post Vaccination). The study lists 5 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 7 Apr 2026.
