About this study

Official title: A Phase III Study for Evaluation of Immunogenicity and Reactogenicity of Fluarix™ / Influsplit SSW® 2008/2009 in People Aged 18 Years or Above

This study is designed to test the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of the Fluarix™/Influsplit SSW® influenza vaccine containing the influenza strains recommended for the 2008-2009 season.

Conditions: Influenza
Being tested: Fluarix™
Medical subject headings: Influenza, Human

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Also called Influsplit
Single intramuscular dose on Day 0

Study groups in NCT00706563
Study group	Role	What they receive
Fluarix Adult Group	Experimental	Subjects who are 18-40 years of age received one dose of Fluarix™. Receives: Biological: Fluarix™

What is being measured

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

Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titer
Titers given as geometric mean titer (GMT) were presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains
Measured: At Day 0 and 21
Number of Subjects With HI Antibody Titer Above the Cut-off Value
The cut-off value assessed was ≥ 1:10 and was presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains
Measured: At Day 0 and 21
Number of Seroprotected Subjects
A seroprotected subject is a subject with a serum HI antibody titer ≥ 1:40
Measured: At Day 0 and 21
Number of Serconverted Subjects
A seroconverted subject is a subject with a pre-vaccination serum HI titer < 1:10 and a post-vaccination serum HI titer ≥ 1:40, or a pre-vaccination serum HI titer ≥ 1:10 and a fold increase (Day 21/Day 0) ≥ 4
Measured: At Day 21
Serconversion Factor
Seroconversion factor, defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMT post-vaccination compared to pre-vaccination (Day 0), is presented for all three vaccine influenza virus strains
Measured: At Day 21
Seroprotection Power
Seroprotection power is defined as the number of subject who had a pre-vaccination titer < 1:40 and a post-vaccination titer ≥ 1:40
Measured: At Day 21

Secondary outcomes (3)

Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Symptoms
Solicited local symptoms assessed include ecchymosis, induration, pain, redness, and swelling.
Solicited general symptoms assessed include arthralgia, fatigue, headache, myalgia, shivering, sweating, and fever
Measured: During the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period
Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events (AE)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Measured: During the 21-day (Day 0-20) post-vaccination period
Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAE)
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject, or may evolve into one of the outcomes listed above.
Measured: During the 21-day (Day 0-20) post-vaccination period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fluarix™ in people with Influenza, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 5 sites in Germany.

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 5 inclusion and 14 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 17 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Germany. 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 25 Aug 2009). 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?

Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titer (time frame: At Day 0 and 21). The study lists 6 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 NCT00706563.

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 17 Aug 2018.
