About this study

Official title: Randomized Double-Blind, Comparison of Standard Dose Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine Versus High-Dose Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine in Adult Stem Cell Hematopoetic Transplant Recipients

Hypothesis 1: The safety profile in adult allogeneic stem cell hematopoietic transplant (SCT) recipients after high dose (HD) trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) will not be significantly different from adult stem cell transplant recipients receiving standard dose (SD) TIV.

  • Specific Aim 1: To compare safety profile of high dose trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine to standard dose trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine in adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.
Read more

Hypothesis 2: Adult stem cell transplant recipients who received the higher dose trivalent influenza vaccine will have a greater frequency of (at least a 4-fold) rise in antibody titers to influenza antigens compared to those who receive standard dose trivalent influenza vaccine.

  • Specific Aim 2: To compare humoral immune responses of adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients influenza virus antigens included in trivalent influenza vaccine after high dose or standard dose trivalent influenza vaccine.
Being tested
High-Dose Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (HD-TIV), Standard Dose Trivalent Inactivated Flu Vaccine

What participants receive

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

  • High-Dose Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (HD-TIV)Biological

    0.5 ml of HD-TIV on visit 1

  • Standard Dose Trivalent Inactivated Flu VaccineBiological

    Twenty adult hematopoetic stem cell transplant recipients will receive 0.5 ml standard dose trivalent influenza vaccine on visit 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patients Experiencing at Least 1 Solicited Local and/or Systemic Adverse Event After High Dose (HD) Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV) or Standard Dose (SD) Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in Adult Hematopoetic Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) Recipients

    Patients were questioned about the following adverse events related to TIV: Local: pain, tenderness, swelling/induration, or erythema at injection site. Systemic: fatigue/malaise, headache, nausea, vomiting, body ache not at injection site, fever >= 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, or change in activity level.

    Measured: Day of TIV to 7 days after TIV

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patients Receiving HD or SD TIV With a 4-fold Rise in Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) Titers Relative to Baseline for Each of 3 Influenza Viruses

    Adult hematopoetic stem cell transplant recipients at least 6 months post-transplant receiving either HD or SD TIV who had blood drawn at pre-vaccination and at 28-42 days post-vaccination and who experienced a 4-fold rise in each of three post-vaccination influenza antibody titers, relative to their baseline titers. Trivalent vaccine is for the H1N1/H3N2/B influenzas. A 4-fold rise in type-specific antibody titer is considered adequate antibody response to the specific influenza virus

    Measured: Before TIV and 28-42 days after TIV

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing High-Dose Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (HD-TIV) and Standard Dose Trivalent Inactivated Flu Vaccine in people with Adult Stem Cell Hematopoetic Transplant, run by Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 8 Mar 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 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 8 Mar 2013). 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?

Patients Experiencing at Least 1 Solicited Local and/or Systemic Adverse Event After High Dose (HD) Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV) or Standard Dose (SD) Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in Adult Hematopoetic Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) Recipients (time frame: Day of TIV to 7 days after TIV). 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 8 Mar 2013.
