About this study

Official title: Annual Study for Serum Collection and Evaluation of Safety and Immunogenicity Among Healthy Children Receiving Fluzone® Influenza Virus Vaccine (2008-2009 Formulation)

Primary Objective:

To provide the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) with sera collected from healthy children receiving the 2008-2009 formulation of the inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine Fluzone® for further study.

Observational Objectives:

To describe the safety of the 2008-2009 pediatric formulation of Fluzone® vaccine, administered in a one- or two-dose schedule in accordance with Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations, in children ≥ 6 months to < 5 years of age.

To describe the immunogenicity of the 2008-2009 pediatric formulation of Fluzone® vaccine, administered in a one- or two-dose schedule in accordance with ACIP recommendations, in children ≥ 6 months to < 5 years of age.

Read the detailed description

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has in recent years recommended that all healthy children aged 6 through 59 months receive influenza vaccine. Because of the growing emphasis on influenza immunization of infants and young children, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) has expressed interest in receiving sera from children who have been vaccinated with the current formulation of Fluzone® vaccine. These sera will be tested to evaluate each individual's immune response to the current formulation of Fluzone® vaccine and will also be used to evaluate circulating influenza strains in order to support formulation recommendations for the subsequent year (particularly for influenza B strains, which predominantly affect the young).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Reactions After Fluzone® Vaccination 1

    Solicited local reactions: Tenderness, pain, erythema, and swelling. Systemic reactions: Fever (temperature), vomiting, crying abnormal, drowsiness, appetite lost, irritability, headache, malaise, and myalgia.

    Measured: Day 0 to Day 3 post-vaccination 1

  2. Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Reactions After Fluzone® Vaccination 2

    Solicited local reactions: Tenderness, pain, erythema, and swelling. Systemic reactions: Fever (temperature), vomiting, crying abnormal, drowsiness, appetite lost, irritability, headache, malaise, and myalgia.

    Measured: Day 0 to Day 3 post-vaccination 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Influenza Virus Vaccine No Preservative: Pediatric Dose in people with Influenza and Orthomyxoviridae Infections, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company 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 5 inclusion and 13 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 14 Apr 2016. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 1 Apr 2010). 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?

Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Reactions After Fluzone® Vaccination 1 (time frame: Day 0 to Day 3 post-vaccination 1). The study lists 2 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 14 Apr 2016.
