About this study

Official title: Evaluation of In Vitro Cross-Reactivity With Avian Influenza H5N1 Virus in Healthy Volunteers Vaccinated With a Prime Boost Regimen of Seasonal Influenza Vaccine

This will be a randomized, open-label, pilot feasibility study of four 2-dose vaccine regimens in healthy volunteers using two commercially available seasonal influenza vaccines to compare immune responses and in vitro cross-reactivity against H5N1. Vaccine doses will be spaced by approximately 8 weeks to allow for optimal prime boost conditions. Humoral, cellular and secretory immune responses will be measured 2 and 4 weeks after each vaccine dose and compared with baseline values.

Conditions
Influenza
Being tested
FluMist® live, attenuated, intranasal seasonal influenza vaccine, Fluzone® inactivated influenza virus vaccine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FluMist® live, attenuated, intranasal seasonal influenza vaccine and Fluzone® inactivated influenza virus vaccine in people with Influenza, run by Armed Forces Research Institute of Medical Sciences, Thailand at 1 site in Thailand.

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 6 inclusion and 17 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 Jul 2013. 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 Thailand. 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.

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?

antibody titers (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 NCT01044095, 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 Jul 2013.
