About this study

Official title: Randomized, Double-blind, Active -Controlled Trial to Assess Safety and Immunogenicity of Solvay's Cell-derived Influenza Vaccine, Including Revaccination, in Elderly Subjects

A controlled, double-blind study to determine the immunogenicity and safety of influenza cell derived vaccine in elderly subjects.

Read the detailed description

This current phase II study is to pursue objectives similar to those of the ongoing adult phase II trial, but to expand into the elderly population who are more than 60 years of age. The results of this randomized, double blind, egg derived influenza vaccine (Influvac) - controlled, parallel-trial, in healthy elderly subjects are to be conducted over two consecutive years in multiple centers in Europe. At study initiation 600 subjects will be randomly allocated to receive the cell-derived or egg-derived influenza vaccine. At start of the second year subjects will be randomly re-allocated following stratification based upon the initial drug they were allocated and had received.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the immunogenicity of the cell-derived subunit vaccine three weeks after vaccination, by applying the CHMP criteria for immunogenicity.

    Measured: 3 weeks

  2. To assess the safety and tolerability of the cell-derived vaccine and compare to an egg-derived influenza vaccine.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. To assess the safety and tolerability of the cell-derived vaccine following revaccination.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To assess the immunogenicity of the cell-derived subunit vaccine three weeks after revaccination, by applying the CHMP criteria for immunogenicity.

    Measured: 3 weeks

  2. To assess the long-term immunogenicity (6 months) of the cell-derived subunit vaccine.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Influenza Vaccine in people with Influenza Vaccines, run by Abbott Biologicals at 12 sites in 3 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 27 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Estonia, Lithuania, 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 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To assess the immunogenicity of the cell-derived subunit vaccine three weeks after vaccination, by applying the CHMP criteria for immunogenicity. (time frame: 3 weeks). The study lists 3 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 27 Oct 2011.
