About this study

Official title: A Phase II Evaluation of the Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of Different Doses of Intramuscular Trivalent Baculovirus-expressed Influenza HA Vaccine in Healthy Elderly Adults

This study will compare the safety and immunogenicity of three different dose levels of an experimental recombinant influenza HA protein vaccine to a standard inactivated influenza vaccine in heallthy elderly subjects ages 65-80. Blood and nasal secretions for assessment of antibody responses will be obtained from all subjects prior to and one month after vaccination.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 400 healthy, ambulatory adults ages 65-80 will be randomized into one of four study groups to receive a single immunization of a licensed trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine or one of three dose levels of an investigatioanl trivalent recombinant influenza HA protein vaccine. The study will be conducted in 2 stages. In the first stage, 80 subjects will be randomized (20 per group) and receive one vaccination on Day 0. Safety will be evaluated after Stage 1 subjects have completed a 7 day follow-up. Enrollment of Stage 2 subjects will begin after the safety data for Stage 1 has been reviewed. In Stage 2, 320 subjects will be randomized (80 per group) and receive one vaccination on Day 0. Blood and nasal secretions will be collected prior to an approximately one month after vaccination to assess antibody responses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rHAO Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in people with Influenza, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 3 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 7 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 Aug 2011. 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 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 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?

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.

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 12 Aug 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
