InfluenzaPhase 3NCT00197223
Post-marketing Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Influenza Vaccine
A Phase 3 study testing Influenza vaccine in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Czechia.
Trial summary
As a result of the recent supply shortages in the U.S., as well as an anticipated increase in demand during the coming years, GSK Biologicals is pursuing licensure of Fluarix in the U.S. under the accelerated approval process; marketing approval most likely will be granted before the start of this clinical trial.

About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Post-marketing Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of GSK Biologicals' Influenza Vaccine (Fluarix™) Administered Intramuscularly in Adults.
As a result of the recent supply shortages in the U.S., as well as an anticipated increase in demand during the coming years, GSK Biologicals is pursuing licensure of Fluarix in the U.S. under the accelerated approval process; marketing approval most likely will be granted before the start of this clinical trial. GSK proposes to support U.S. licensure of Fluarix with this confirmatory post-marketing study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a single dose of Fluarix in preventing influenza in adults during the 2005/2006 Influenza season.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Influenza vaccine in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Czechia.
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 6 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 23 Mar 2017. 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 Czechia. 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?
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?
Incidence of culture confirmed influenza A and/or B during the surveillance period. 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 NCT00197223, 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 23 Mar 2017.
