Trial summary

Influenza (flu) viruses change continuously, therefore also the parts of viruses used in influenza vaccines can vary from year to year. In Europe, manufacturers/marketing holders of these vaccines are required to be involved in ongoing clinical trials and to present the results to the competent authorities each year.

About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity and Safety of the Trivalent Influenza Subunit Vaccine Influvac® for the Season 2010/2011. An Open-Label, Baseline-Controlled Multi-Center Study in Two Groups: Adult Subjects and Elderly Subjects

Influenza (flu) viruses change continuously, therefore also the parts of viruses used in influenza vaccines can vary from year to year. In Europe, manufacturers/marketing holders of these vaccines are required to be involved in ongoing clinical trials and to present the results to the competent authorities each year. The current study is a phase IIIa clinical trial with a commercially available vaccine (Influvac®) supplied in pre filled syringes. It is part of the ongoing clinical trial program for Influvac® and will be done to assess the immunogenicity and safety and tolerability of next season's trivalent influenza subunit vaccine in two groups of subjects in good health: subjects aged >= 18 and <= 60 years and subjects >= 61 years of age (elderly)

What is being measured

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

  1. HI titers and its derived parameters after 2 weeks (seroprotection, seroconversion and mean fold increase), reactogenicity and inconvenience of Influvac® 2010/2011 as defined by the CHMP guideline for influenza vaccines

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. HI titers and its derived parameters after 3 weeks (seroprotection, seroconversion and mean fold increase), reactogenicity and inconvenience of Influvac® 2010/2011 as defined by the CHMP guideline for influenza vaccines

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Trivalent influenza subunit vaccine Influvac in people with Influenza, run by Abbott Biologicals at 2 sites in 2 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 5 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 26 Aug 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Belgium, 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?

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?

HI titers and its derived parameters after 2 weeks (seroprotection, seroconversion and mean fold increase), reactogenicity and inconvenience of Influvac® 2010/2011 as defined by the CHMP guideline for influenza vaccines (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 26 Aug 2011.
